Dont only think about the trades, what about the banks?

 

If you had 85 slayer and after getting a few whips as drop.

 

All would be different. 5 bank slots for 1 whip in ea. #-o

I know, I have an idea (withdraw highest, withdraw lowest, withdray specific [interface opens]) But I need to come up with a picture to explain better ;)

I dont really see the point of it at all and therefore cannot support it because their is more important things jagex needs to do.

I do not support this suggestion, I am against it. Imagine the prices on Whips? "Selling Whip, with 82 Str 76mi!" "Selling Whip with 75 Str, 1mil!" Also, this suggestion would just ruin the game in so many other ways. I can't name them all, I'm already a little sick from reading this thread :-X

I support this idea for all metallic weapons: We need to breathe new life back into the mining and smithing market.

Meh, yea, Gold_Tiger10 - That would definately happen...can't argue with that :lol:

Thanks, added ;)

Speaking of Metal weapons, after smithed you could accidentaly make it blunter or sharper.

The items wouldn't be able to stack, which is idiotic.

i really cant say this is a great idea, as many people would want the best, and the lower ones would end up being pointless to buy. it would also ruin the economy, and if you haven't noticed, the economy is already messed up

True...But that could go under higher smithing = high grade weapon.

 

 

 

If you're talking about a weapon getting duller over time, that would be like durability... Which I wouldn't really want to add to a suggestion like this - yet.

Well, in your invintory, that's probably true. I have a bank theory though...But aside from that...I really doubt that there are that many times when you need to carry 2 of the same weapons as notes...unless selling, and then, well, you'd be right. A new dimension would be added to selling weapons.

Not nessarily ruin it, but could infact possibly save it. Having higher whips/weapons would allow poorer players to be able to buy lower-weapons and richer players to buy richer weapons. Then, instead of people complaining about how high certain items have gotten in cost, they could buy a lower, yet still effective for what they want to do, item to complete the task. :wink:

I like it, excellent idea because it adds a different level of strategie to the Wilderness

lol no support...not a good idea....that would just kill the whole meaning of have a good item...and really it wont make a diff.....so no...this is dumb

So basically, everybody would just go buy the high quality stuff and be better off?

 

 

 

What if you worked months for 85 slayer. Spend 6 hours killing abbys. Get a whip drop. "Poor quality." Go sell for 300k. Great.

 

 

 

No.

this defeats the purpose of having different items, eventually the market would widdle down to whip -1-, whip -2-, etc. i know this is exagerated, but essentially the market would consist of a lot less items, with a lot of different stats...you could, however, just make diferent types of whips, etc. :-$ ... that ones up for taking.

 

 

 

EDIT: oh, by the way, in my idea, you wouldn't need 85 slayer for a 300k whip

With a bit of twicking, this could work. A higher smithing means better weapons, this would greatly help mine/smith skillers. (Me being a skiller in training, being a bit bias) After a lot of use, the weapon would fatigue. But if you can repair it at a anvil, with at least half the required smithing. if you have the smith skill to make it, you can make it in a slightly better quality then you made it, but only once per level. After five levels, you can make it at the best condition possible.

Yea - something like that. But I don't want to add 'fatigue' or what I could call durability. That would add too much for now, and a lot of people are repeating no for reasons like the market; which has been explained #-o

 

 

 

But yea, overall I think durability would work. Just small steps to a bigger goal IMO :)

Great idea!

 

You could also make it similiar to games like Oblivion, where you can sometimes obtain "unique" weapons/armor, which have extra effects/strength added to them.

Kinda like armour/weapon enhancing. Present in a lot of games. It would be fun, but more fun for the rich.

I think this is a terrific idea. Just because something is made of the same material doesn't ensure equal quality.

Thanks! 8-)

 

 

 

Added all 3 of ya :)

Or perhaps the item could only be categorised by a certain stat/ combination of stats. For example, you could have whip(strength), and whip (slash), or and whip (prayer). Also, you could get combinations such as whip (str/atk) or even a 3 way combination, such as whip (str/pray/slash). Problem is that it will screw up the bank, and the item word limit.

 

 

 

Edit: I support btw, as long as we work out a system which will not mess up the bank.

Lol, fine, I'll make the pic -> It'll be up in 3 hours or so :)

this would ruin so many aspects of melee usage. i can't even begin to explain how useless having a low-quality anything would be.

Horrible Idea. Then everyone would have a whip and would be really annoying to see everyone weild a whip and no weapon varity on players. Degrading weapons and armour is annoying enough allready with barrows. We dont need it on every weapon

No offence, but you don't understand my idea at all.

 

 

 

Items would remain having the same stats reguardless how often used. I even said that in saying "no durability" ... This is simply making some weapons better than others when dropped by monsters or made.

Added an image to simulate how the banking issue could be fixed. ;)
