Ess questions.

[Mountdoom77]

1. What's the difference between pure ess and normal ess.

 

 

 

2. Who can mine it, use it, etc. (Pure ess)

 

 

 

3. Why was it created? (I heard it was created to stop bots)

[Lenticular_J]

Pure essence can be used to make any runes, normal just can't make members-only.

 

 

 

Anyone can use it, but only members with 30+ mining (and the quest, of course :P) can mine it.

 

 

 

Erm...No idea. Gotta ask the development team on this one :-w

Pure ess can only be mined by members with a mining level of 30. If you aren't a member or don't have 30 mining you can only mine rune ess.

 

Pure ess can be used to craft any rune (from elemental runes to mud runes and deaths), while Rune ess can only be crafted into the f2p runes (elemental, mind, and body). The main purpose behind it's creation was to stop ess macroers from profiting so easily, as far as I know.
