Achilleus Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 From what I have seen dragon boots are a very common drop.... My Question is why have Jagex released so much at once and why have they made dragon boots such a common drop Dragon boots could have seperately been a super update but they been overlooked really by the new godswords Discuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian5kamikaze Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 To get some flowing into the economy, they can always nerf the drop rate later. Quit. PM me if you play The Conduit to exchange friend codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilleus Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 To get some flowing into the economy, they can always nerf the drop rate later. Ok they can do that but Ireally don't see why they didnt save the dragon boots for a seperate update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitman247m Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 They did this with dragon legs, albeit, probly not as high a drop rate as this boots. It's to get lots of the boots into the game, then, after a month or so, they'll quietly nerf it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok they can do that but Ireally don't see why they didnt save the dragon boots for a seperate update If they were a seperate update then the prices would probably be 4 or 5 times higher and jagex might not of wanted that so releasing them with the god sword made it so their price would stay down. Just a guess though. Quit. PM me if you play The Conduit to exchange friend codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisc6 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 To get some flowing into the economy, they can always nerf the drop rate later. i agree.it seemed like that happened with the dark bows.tehy knew that if tehy didnt get them out into players hand quick enough they would go for astronomical prices and would end up being virtually unused.later on players complained that jagex has nerfed the drop rate.it seems that way with the d boots that they just wanted to get them to honest players who dont or cant rival these phat merchants who buy everyting up as soon as it appears. also theirs a lot more poeple at 83 slayer than 90 slayer naturally so that might factor into th commoness im glad thyre common because theyre cheap and it means i can buy them soon :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torlen Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 They arent any more common than other boot drops from their own respective monsters. It just seems like alot have come into the economy because they were released after tons of people already had >83 prayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessy87 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 some people complained about them. they are more common then the whip. and they are just nearly as common as the rune boots. 150 kills seems to yield 2-5 boots. from what i heard.

Latinoking Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Isn't this a good thing? :| People need to stop trying to make millions with slayer. It won't work tons of people got high slayer. I am Teh_King[My dA][My Last.FM][My Twitter] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_I_O_T Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 They seem to be very common, but like other people have said it's because they want to get the boots into curculation then they nerf it. My friend got 3 pairs in under 5 minutes. It seems that if you camp there you can rack up 15+ ~R I O T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bludragon124 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 They do seem very common. Within 24 hours of update, the price has fallen from about 4.8-5M, to 1.2M.

I bought some yesterday for 2.4M, now I've been gypped #-o That's why you should NEVER buy somthing the day it comes out. If it went from 4m to 2.4m yesterday, chances were that it would drop way further by the next day. I'm going to wait a week at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact they've been dropping way slower than yesterday so I think they might've already nerfed the drop rate. :ohnoes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
