I have a friend who was wearing rune chain and other items aroudn that price. He was also wearing a tophat worth around 2.3mil. Why didn't he keep the tophat but instead dropped it whn he died?

Because items kept on death are determined by alch value. Top hat alches for very little, so less than runite prices.

It goes off of general store value of items.. You will keep the 3 most expensive according to the General Store.. So honestly, you would keep a black sword over a party hat if you died, simply because of the general store value.. Sadly.

Right, my bad. General store value, not alch value. At least I was close :thumbsup:

 

 

 

And isn't Low alch value and General store value the same, like, all the time?

not sure, but ty, remember that now. Jagex should really fix that since they have all the ge prices now anyways which are way more reasonable.

Yep. Jagex just states the items as general store value over low level alchemy.. Even though they are the same value. (Low alchemy also gives the price the General store would buy, whereas High alchemy would be the price a specialty store of that item would be..)
