July 24, 200817 yr Does anyone know why the price of Super Attack potions have been skyrocketing recently? :?: Dr Locust <-- Click for my blog...+2000 Total, PhD in Questing, Woodcutting, Agility, Thieving, and Firemaking
July 24, 200817 yr Supply < Demand = Price ^^ Simple enough ;) 99 Range on 08/25/08!Solo Arma Hilt on 12/06/08! (clicky)
July 24, 200817 yr Supply < Demand = Price ^^ Simple enough ;) Or Jagex decided to Change the price manually ;) But he's quite right. More people buying than there are People selling the pots, that means people offer max, which makes the G.E Price go up.
July 24, 200817 yr Supply < Demand = Price ^^ Simple enough ;) That does not answer the "why" question. You just explained basic economic rules which is not really helpful. Personally I always wondered why super attack potions were practically worth nothing. I find them quite useful in every day monster fighting.

July 24, 200817 yr Author Supply < Demand = Price ^^ Simple enough ;) Yeah, I know. Let me re-phrase....does anyone know why there is a sudden [seemingly] increased demand on super attack potions?

July 24, 200817 yr waterfeinds maybe? Best tip.it F.O.G. player =)"No mercy for the weak, no pity for the dying, no tears for the slain"
July 24, 200817 yr waterfeinds maybe? what do waterfiends have to do with super attack jagex probably saw that making super attacks makes a massive loss and raised it or a lot of people buying at max price
July 24, 200817 yr waterfeinds maybe? what do waterfiends have to do with super attack jagex probably saw that making super attacks makes a massive loss and raised it or a lot of people buying at max price ppl use em there,and alot of ppl are using this way to gather charms?i dno, just something off my head Best tip.it F.O.G. player =)"No mercy for the weak, no pity for the dying, no tears for the slain"
July 24, 200817 yr Monster Hunting? Godwars, Daggantoh Kings? I would assume people use Super Attacks and Super Strengths for those :)
July 24, 200817 yr Drop rates oh herbs wouldn't of changed. More people want Super Attacks. Price rises little by little. [saradomin hilt - 3] [Armadyl hilt - 1] [ Bandos hilt - 3][ Abyssal whip - 88] [ Dark bow - 7] [ Dragon boots - 100+]
July 24, 200817 yr Drop rates oh herbs wouldn't of changed. More people want Super Attacks. Price rises little by little. A little? Its risen well over 100%
July 24, 200817 yr Probably because people realized how cheap they are, theyre extremely useful for speeding up slayer tasks and at that price even just regular training. Quit. PM me if you play The Conduit to exchange friend codes.
July 24, 200817 yr Eek! I sold 2k super attacks for 350 ea two weeks ago. Oh well, good news for the other 1k I was still going to sell. Super attacks have always been ridiculously cheap. Maybe a lot of herblorists have decided to change to super anti poisons (better xp anyway), thus lowering the supply of the attack potions? The price of unicorn horn dust has been dropping over the last week, while super anti poisons have been going up. So it's definitely become far more attractive to train herblore with them, making the super attacks the dupe.
July 24, 200817 yr Considering from whence they have fallen, these last movements are relatively meaningless (think dead cat bounce). I still have thousands that I'd rather use myself than sell at these dirt-cheap prices. PvP is not for meIn the 3rd Year of the BoycottReal-world money saved since FT/W: Hundreds of DollarsReal-world time saved since FT/W: Thousands of Hours
July 24, 200817 yr Some possible reasons Maybe they rose because more people are starting to slay. People making them from herblore stopped selling at min. Merchanters are buying them out :P Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool
July 24, 200817 yr People have realised how much quicker training is by spending less than 1k on a great attack boost. More people are realising that the best ways to make money are combat related monster hunting and want to get levels quickly and are heading to PC/bandits/slaying/etc. 99: Agility 28/12/14|Thieving 20/03/15
July 24, 200817 yr Looks like a price manipulation. like what happened with anti-fire and range pots Yeah. That kind of clean exponential graph would have to be caused by a HUGE increase in interest in fighting (like, say, a new boss monster, which didn't happen), or a clan deciding to each buy 25k super attack potions every hour and dump them in a couple days.
