Does Free Trade entail No GE Buy limits?
I want to collect an item and since I can only buy 100 of them an hour it's really frustrating :-( I hope the 4 hour limit thing is removed personally.

I've been using them for my attack exp. Gained 550k or so and have 36% left, I need as much xp as I can get for 200M xp :-D

Wilderness and Free Trade will return - 17 January 2011
I hope the buy and sell limits are removed. I'm trying to purchase many of one particular item i'm collecting, but with a limit of only 100 every 4 hours, it would take me years to buy the amount I want at this rate <.<

Dyes!
1. This is true, however for more complex dyes like Dark teal for example, this would be frustrating with only 5 dye slots and a ton of dyes to mix (yellow + blue for green, then that green + blue for a teal dye etc.). With all these dyes, it could clutter up bank space, so perhaps the basic dyes you suggested could be from monster drops, and any additional dyes could be purchased from NPC's (green/orange etc.) or have the NPC at the Grand Exchange combine dyes for you like he does with herblore potions. 2. I think a graphical update would be needed as well. I also hope there wouldn't be people in full psychodellic rune armour, as it would be an eye sore to say the least o_O I don't know how that would happen though because after all it's people's choice as to what colours they want to wear :-/ 3. True, although dragon is a very popular armour, and I for one would want some purple dragon platelegs. Especially one day for when I get a Torva Platebody. Perhaps armour could have some restrictions as to what dyes could be placed on them/certain colours? I don't know how this would all work, it's quite a complicated update really. Things would have to be thought through over and over to get it right. Like you say though, the more unique armours could definitely work I.E. barrows, third age etc. as they are quite distinguishable compared to other armour like bronze - rune where they all look the same.

Ouch sorry for your loss :-/ a similar situation happened to me once when I was donating hexcrests at the fally party room. I put in about 50 before a system update message popped up. It first said System update in 10:00 I thought phew, at least there will be time, then I had to jinx it because 5 seconds later it went System update in 3:00 Everyone missed out <.<

A few ceremonial robe drops I got a couple days ago. Sold them for trade price to a couple of people who only wanted it for their outfits. A little niceness goes a long way :-D I got both drops within 656 kills :-/ [hide][/hide] [hide][/hide] What armour could look like if it was dyed :-D (link to my 'dyes' suggestion in my signature) well the torva plate isn't dyed, and no I don't actually have a torva plate (I wish XD) I enlarged it from the G.E. picture Also made an alternative coloured fire cape: People are welcome to use it as their avatar or in their signature if they want to, I've put the link below. http://img502.imageshack.us/i/firecapex.png/ Oh and l33t posts :o Edit: Lol thanks Den :shades:

Dyes!
Thanks for your comment Guardian :-D I agree, there would have to be some sort of way to distinguish between armours :-/ that is my main worry. Perhaps there could be a toggle option where you can turn off the graphics for dyed armour? Or have a system where any dyed armour that enters the wilderness is not viewable by other players, but you can see the dye :-D Hmmmm for bright and dim dyes, what about a special-effects aura sort of dye? Something like this effect on the monster below, only on the player: I think black and white dye could be used to darken and lighten armour, and silver dye could be used to make armour shiny, however a sparkly sort of dye would be a really great addition and different enough from silver dye. It could be a reward from treasure trails like you say - not to mention it would be extremely popular :o The programs I used were Photoshop 7.0 and Adobe Imageready 7.0 I just took some screenshots in RS, proceeded to Photoshop, made a few solid blocks for tabs/squares, added a shadow to make each one 3D, selected the dragon plateleg's pixels very carefully, duplicated the layer (incase I mess up with colours etc.), and experimented :-D then once I was happy with the colour, I went to File > Jump to > Adobe Imageready 7.0 I duplicated the frames, and selected which layers I wanted with each frame, to create the animation. I then adjusted the amount of seconds to what I thought looked good :-D and voila! Edit: made this yesterday, thought I might as well add it here ^_^

Dyes!
Whips, dark bows and infinity may have yellow, green, blue and white colour options, but they don't have all colour options :-) I have heard of many female players on the RS forums wanting to dye their abyssal whip pink for example. Mystics robes would not be dyable because they already have colour 'sets' just like dragonhide armour. Dyes may not be appliable to metal in real life, but in Runescape, anything is possible ;-) I have done some experimenting. Is this a bit too far? I don't think fire capes should be dyable, but it was fun experimenting anyway Before and after:

Dyes!
Hmmm I just re thought the rune thing and that too, could confuse players :-/ although I guess it wouldn't matter so much because it is the high-end of the basic armours, you could probably tell what type of armour the player is using by their combat level anyway, and there are pures which pull out great weapons at unexpected times etc. so it wouldn't be much different I suppose I'll compile a list of possible dyable armour and weapons below, this will be a work in progress.

Dyes!
Hmmmm I'm not too knowledgeable about F2P I'm afraid :-/ Another thing that occured to me was dragonhide. I'll note this down under limitations as well. Because dragonhide is defined by the colour itself, so it won't be dyable. Maybe I'll compile a list of possible dyable armour and weapons :-D I would like to dye my barrow gloves because it annoys me to no end when I finally find something that looks good, to realize the barrow gloves don't match, or I have to get ones with slightly less defence (dragon) in order to match o_O maybe that can be an exception. Edit: I just realized FOG armour is F2P, that could definitely be dyable, considering their unique look :-D also the adamant/rune berserker shields
-
Dyes!
That's a good point, I didn't think about that, thanks! I'll add that to the limitations section ^_^

Dyes!
Dyes! From left to right: Grey, brown, white, orange, blue, red, green, yellow, purple, pink, black, metallic Intro Have you ever wondered what a Dragon Platebody would look like, dyed Cadbury purple? Perhaps mint chocolate chip green? Or even fuchsia pink? For so long, players have wanted to be different in their own unique way. However there are very few things which can differentiate us from other players, visually. One is our default clothes (with hundreds of different combinations, colours and styles to choose from which is great - but chances are you won't be fighting monsters with nothing on!). The second is our combat level, and last but not least, the awesome range of armour and weapons to choose from. At one point or another, I am sure some (or many) of us players have wanted to have different coloured armour, just to stand out a little from everyone else. Introducing my idea for dyes (inspired by Guild Wars and their dye system which I believe would be a major success in Runescape). Usage The player would apply a vial of dye on any unique weapon or armour (only weapons and armour that are distinctively different from each other could be dyed), whilst it is in their inventory. An interface would then pop up with a preview of your character wearing that dyed armour or weapon. Here is an example of what it would look like: To add more dyes, the player would simply drag other vials of dye into the boxes to change the colour :-) obviously Jagex would be able to make it look much better than this. There could even be a particle effect/glowing dye? How to obtain dyes Several ways. - Quest rewards would offer a couple high end dyes (black/white/metallic/pink) - NPC's. One of these would be Oronwen in Lletya, who some of you may know as the Lletya Seamstress. She would sell the basic dyes - red/orange/yellow/green/blue/purple/grey/brown. - Monster drops. All monsters could drop ANY type of dye; however it would be rare to obtain a high end dye from a low level monster (one example being the goblin). The higher leveled the monster is, the greater chance of a high end dye drop. Nex, for example, could drop 10 black/metallic/pink/white dyes occasionally, considering the difficulty in slaying her. Limitations PVP armour could be dyable, but if a player were to lose dyed armour, it would revert to its original undyed state for the other player, should you die and lose it. Another idea here would be to make it so that when you enter the wilderness, the dyed armour reverts back to its original state, and only returns back to the dyed version once you exit out of the wilderness. When it comes to trading, dye would have to be removed from the weapon/armour to be tradeable again (to prevent scams and players claiming it is dyed a certain colour when it isnt etc). This could be done with a cleaning cloth. Also note that no levels would be required to dye armour. Only certain weapons and armour would be dyable, and Jagex could make a list for those selected items. Armour ranging from bronze to barrows, would definitely be dyable, as they are getting a graphic update in the future (announced at Runefest 2011) so this would make it easy for players to distinguish one armour from another. To avoid players potentially using colours as a tactic to confuse other players in terms of what armour they are using, items like the capes of achievement, the 10s capes, and various other items would not be dyable. Either way their colours were chosen specifically to represent their respective skills and levels, so they would not be dyable. Some dye areas would be different to what you would expect. Items like the Torva Platebody for example. If you were to apply black dye to the plate, it would make the platebody darker. If you were to apply white dye, it would make the platebody lighter. If you applied metallic dye, it would make the platebody shinier. If you applied red/orange/yellow/green/blue/purple/pink dyes, it would colour the eyes instead of the plate. Weapons and armour which have 'coloured sets' or are 'defined by their colour' would not be dyable. A couple examples of this are achievement capes, mystic robes and dragonhide. There are probably more examples but I can't think of them all. There would be exceptions however, like the red and blue soul wars cape as this doesnt affect anything really. Player Suggestions <> Sparkle dye <> Graphic update for most/all armour so that they can be easily recognized when they have been coloured <> Dyed items: holiday items, random event clothing Outro Thanks for taking the time to read my suggestion, and I hope you like it! :-)

For those who are interested in the Zaryte Bow, there's finally a REAL video of it, and the player with the bow is attempting to max with it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzfTLJ6GuJQ The arrows fire with purple glow :-D I put my offer in for one of them at the G.E. today, worth a try anyway. If I got one I'd probably use it at Armadyl's in GWD to get some noted addy bars and have some fun.

Wildy/Trade - Expect news on Monday (official)
There was already that 'wet and wildy' fun park behind the scenes joke last year, but that was to be expected, and it was actually in April. I seriously doubt they'd put their cash cow (Runescape) in jeopardy by saying they'll bring it back, only to then disappoint 91% of the players by saying they were joking. I think it will come back mid February/March. I'm guessing they saved the file/scripts/whatever it is from the old wilderness + free trade system, so should they ever bring it back, they have something to work with. The moving of quests/bosses/minigames will take a while though, but like others have said, if Jagex get the entire team working on it, it could be finished in no time :thumbup: It's been so long since we had wildy/free trade, I forgot what it was like. An example being how merchanters made money. From memory, items and their prices were pretty much set in concrete, as it was player driven, and you had to compete with other players prices, usually selling things cheaper than you would have liked to etc. however if there was high demand, the players with that particular item held all the cards, and were able to set the price and demand. Well, whatever happens to the market, I can't wait for it all to be back :-D

Ancient Mage camping - a good set up?
Woot finally got first ceremonial drop (top robe piece) on the 502nd kill. 2nd top :-) I hope the pieces rise to 5M each. If that is the case in the future, I'll only need about 50 pieces for Torva Platebody. 48 to go! Total kills so far: 712 Cere drops on #: 502, 656

Ancient Mage camping - a good set up?
457 kills, still no ceremonial -_- either it's a conspiracy or i'm the most misfortunate player in RS Edit: I give up, after 457 kills that's just insane. Either it's a conspiracy or i'm extremely unlucky to the point where it is impossible to obtain something good because that is just my life - bad luck, bad luck and more bad luck <.< Thanks everyone for your help and I wish you all luck on obtaining pieces. Edit 2: I'm back killing ancient mages :-D I got bored of abby demons and have finally obtained my first cere drop
