I just heard about these unlimited amount of stocks, but will this cause nat crafting to be worthless as it is my main source of income just wondering because this would cripple alot of people as MEP2 isn't an easy quest

The update only affects those who buy nats from magic guild and then selling them. People are still crafting nats at the same rate, and destroying them at the same rate(alching), so i dun think it will affect the income of nat crafters.

The infinite stock raises alot of things above street price. Laws and Arrowtips, for example. I go to the infinite stock in Varrock arrow store to buy a friend addy arrows, they're 179 each. I go to the PLAYER stock, which only has 69 addies, and I buy them for 29 gp each.

I foresee this being a problem. The constant price of natures at any store is 376. Will this cause nat crafters to take advantage of the situation and raise prices? If so, will we be looking at 350- 370 per nat?

Short answer: yes.

 

 

 

Long answer:

 

 

 

Since the stocks in the stores remains both constant (infinite) and therefore the prices cannot fall (I believe 376 each), players will seek the cheap route rather than the quick fix. It also may be 66-76gp difference between the two, but when you're alching 5,000 or more bows or anything, that could be enough to break even (especially with those yew prices being what they are).

 

 

 

So I don't think that nature crafting will stop being profitable. It's just up to the select few whether or not they want immediate (and expensive) gratification as opposed to the patient yet profitable route.

The closer the nat market price gets to the fixed price, the less people will buy from the market, and the more will people will buy from the stores.

 

 

 

Which is why I don't think the nats will rise (I do not think they will fall, though)

Well, fairly intelligent people with access to magics guild will buy all their nats there. And most people needing nats are in that cathegory. The price of nats might need to drop to 270-280gp each

2480+ total

Are prices different at the mage guild? I hadn't checked but I assumed it would be the same throughout.

I also assumed prices would be the same throughout. If the nats are 376gp in the magic guild as well then I doubt people will want to buy them for that price as opposed to 300-310 from players.

Pirate Rosetta stone. Learn a language while you scape.

Sounds interesting, but these days how many people really speak Pirate?
