In regards to the high-end items, I did take part in bringing 3x twisted bows, 1x scythe and 3x Elysians into the realism game mode and I did make good gp for selling it to normie. When the demand was high, those items sold for pretty decent prices, 8-12b Tbow, 12-20b scythe, and 17-25b Ely. However, the mode died off and a lot of the big items were DROPPED to normie gamemode after the 'demand' went away, hence why it is more difficult to obtain end-game items as only a few players hoard the items, no names mentioned. (They will refuse to sell UNLESS you are paying the prices from back in the day, which no-one wants to pay)

Now, all the other 'small items' are also bought out by certain players to control the economy, just like the normie gamemode has their merchers. (Nothing new there)

I do agree that the supply prices are dumb and should not be used for 'milking' the small community. (no offence @Real Alan, but those restore prices and other items are bizarre lmao). Especially when you're encouraging people to play realism! (I believe that's how people interpret your prices, just clarifying)

Selling items in TP is almost impossible unless you undercut yourself by 75% and let someone merch you.

Supply and Demand will always be the case, considering some of the end-game items are not within the gamemode. Therefore, the price of the item can be based on your decision. (just like when I sold my Ely for 20b+)

There is not enough items being circulated / brought into the gamemode, and hence why it is difficult to buy or sell items in general.

Solutions:

De-iron option, sure why not.

Perhaps addition of pots, runes and skilling supplies would sort some of the mess out, as some people just want to get into the PVM content straight away. ( to make it more like a non-ironman gamemode)

Perhaps an NPC to sell your junk. (Eternal boots 15mil? kekw) - Call the NPC 'Real Alan'

Jokes aside, some changes need to be done to sustain the gamemode. I need to see some sort of improvement to continue playing. But I do see where people are coming from, it is highly discouraging playing the gamemode when you can't even afford pots or normal day to day items from the TP. (afford? it's not even in TP)

#401243 Max capes, Bloody keys, Wilderness changes?, Buff raids rates

Posted by Real cream on 28 June 2021 - 12:19 PM

Good evening gamers,

Thank you Kaamea for the suggestions.

1) I like the idea of adding 'Bloody key' to the wilderness boss drop table, public announced preferably, as it brings more people into the wilderness.

2) Reverting back to 'Max cape' + 'additive' seems like a nice QoL.

3) I am glad someone has brought this up, considering I went 15 raids dry with drop boosters myself, which is very unusual. (immortal donor btw) I understand some people have been crying already saying 'it's normal', but the main reason some of us invested in master+ is for the additional rolls and increased DR. (To obtain more loot). It's a RSPS and we should not go 15-20 hours dry for an item.

I don't understand what additional information you want to see @Real Alan, but as far as I am aware you haven't stepped your foot inside CoX in months. If someone with eternal donor goes 20-30 dry, isn't that saying something? - I don't feel the need for someone to provide statistical analysis of 1000 CoX solos to show how much loot is obtainable with these poor rates as it stands. (Yes @22 has done 1000 cox solos, so I am sure he isn't pulling this info out of his ass)

Side note: RNG does have some what of a say, but I still want consistency on the loots, especially if 10k+ is donated.

4) I support the new boss idea, seems like a good way to enhance wilderness activity. (I have already seen some spicy suggestions, so I'll not go into detail - Thank you @99 for wildywyrm suggestion)

5) I wouldn't know enough to tell you about the black d'hide stats.

'On Alora, many ironmen rely on black d'hide to tank normies in max gear. If we nerf black d'hide, it may be highly detrimental to ironmen.' - @Real Alan

I don't understand where you getting at with this, I have to agree with what @Fiji said.

To summarise, in general I feel like they were useful suggestions which were fully developed as more people discussed it. Hopefully some of these will get looked into sooner than later.

'highest active killstreaks to the wilderness scoreboard' - How about 'show location' or 'have a direct teleport' option to these active pkers. Not use it as a trophy to how many skillers has one killed. @Real Alan

Anyways, I'll answer your suggestion, @Yautja, I support. Additionally, might be worth to add, perhaps more chances of better loot in deep wild?
