Jagex Playing Games? - My Thoughts On New Altar

[reaper88888]

Try checking out the update first? You can craft bloods and souls at it... (I'm only 42 rc and I get bloods and souls... :shock: )

I actually thought of that and don't see that as much of a possibility. It would be very difficult and annoying to constantly trade a bunch of runes of various types. Other methods of running would also yield more profit for the runner, unless the crafter gave high cash incentives. Overall, I don't think we'll see many people actually using runners with this new altar.

 

 

 

Someone yesterday was trying to recruit runners with cash + noted ess for 13 pure ess at a time. This makes the most sense, as it lets the crafter continue to stack an inventory full of various runes, and it lets the runner bring 2-3 trades' worth of ess per trip.

I think it's very likely that blood and soul altars won't come out just because it would reduce the market for them greatly and that would upset a lot of players...especially those who use barrows for income. All good barrowers realize the amount of cash you make off the runes you get from there ends up matching or even outnumbering the items.

 

 

 

Plus it would drop bloods and souls below shop prices, which would eliminate a money drain from the game.

 

 

 

I know everyone expects the altars and that there ARE notifications at 77 and 85 runecrafting which say you can craft the runes, but it would be wise to not get your hopes up.

Or you can actually research things before you post and find out paul gower said that there WILL be blood and soul alters coming out.

Yes Jagex doesn;t want to release those 2 just yet.

 

 

 

But yes it's ruining runecrafting and totally making it too easy. It's now a power trainable skill

[qeltar]

I don't understand how exactly this is "ruining runecrafting".

 

 

 

It was always power-trainable before -- just only for the rich people. Was that really better? I don't see how.

[maddudy]

the new one very nice and much safer then the abyssal

 

but i was hopeing for a blood or soul not that

 

but its still good

[MidnightHarvester]

Master Smither, calm the hell down, it is only an altar that gives an alternative way to train...there is no CRAZY EXP gains going on here. If you think 20k-30k exp per hour is making the runecrafting cape cheap then that's a personal issue on your part.

 

 

 

In every Z.M.I. altar post you are the poster boy of the person having a ridiculously unfounded rant over something but apparently not giving any reason. You do realize this is not the pest control of runecrafting don't you?

 

 

 

Are you working for a company going out of business over this or something?

 

 

 

You seem like a smart guy so I don't think that's the case...maybe you work in a company that might be hurt by this update? I don't get how working for a company or crafting here is any different...you are paying or mining your pure essence and crafting it. The experience is comparable ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ your rant is what exactly again?

 

 

 

Have you bothered reading through Qeltar's VERY thorough thread that is hanging near this one in the forum? All the data presented there is completely comparable to what I have experienced.

 

 

 

I never heard you crying about any of the companies people worked for Master...

[Outsanity]

Your bro got 99 RC the long way and got off with what? 400M? 600M? :roll:

 

I doubt the alters will ever be released, and if they will, it won't be for a very long time.

Yea got about 3 phats out of it.

 

 

 

Then there you go. He can't complain because, by doing it the long way, he got ridiculously rich.

 

 

 

And the Blood and Soul altars WILL come out. There is no "maybe," about it. They WILL. This is common knowledge.

 

 

 

However, it may take a year or more for even the Blood Altar to be released. It was years after RC came out for Deaths to be released.

 

 

 

You don't know for sure that they will. Even if Jagex said they would (which I doubt), they also said dragon full helms wouldn't come out, but here they are.

 

 

 

They NEVER said that. I specifically remember in asking Jagex mods in the past that they stated the improved dragon armor WOULD be released, but not until the far off future, when the economy could handle the release of them. So no, that information is false.

 

 

 

And if you truly believe the Blood and Soul Altars won't be released, you are very ignorant. That's all I have to say about that.

[liljjp]

maybe the blood or soul alters will come when the evil comes from the north?

[Freesia]

Jagex has not found a good quest for you to solve that makes a blood altar a reward. Would it kill you to wait though? :boohoo:

[Will H]

I think that a lot of players are labouring under the delusion that when blood and soul alters are released that it will severely impact upon the rune market, because of completely easy production of runes. Seriously, when the alters are discovered, it will not be easy to do.

[ssjshadi]

ill probaly go check this out later this week just so i can get 52 runecrafting. I think this will increase my experince by alot (only 28 rc)
