How large is a Runescape vial?

[999134]

well heres some impossible things to think about

 

how can you wear a cape of lava?

 

you can send a cannon through the exchange system instantly and pick it up on the lunar isles

 

you don't get frostbite in the freezing cold while wearing dwarf clothing

 

when you die you respawn?!

 

you have to take many shots with a bow to kill someone, in practise a lv1 ranger shooting an arrow a you unarmed would kill or at least disable you (but that wouldnt be much of a fun game as whoever shot first would win)

 

a tree can grow overnight?!

 

and you can mix all the ingredients of a potion into a small vial, the size of the vial isnt the problem, how you fit a jug of wine or a whole cockatrice egg bigger than the vial into it without grinding it down!

When I first read the title I thought it was going to be like the 'How long is a piece of string' riddle. Anyway supose I should put in a constructive comment now, I'm going to say 100ml.

 

 

 

P.S. Maybe we should organise a raffle on it? 'guess the volume?' ;)

It must be kind of like drinking concentrated juice without adding water I guess. But then again vials are around the size of your head when you're doing herblore.

Wow how many lame threads can there get on this website >.<

 

 

 

Discussion for the sake of discussion does not lead to valuable forum content.

 

It's people like you that ruined my Orgin of Charms thread. There is more to a game than just what is there, some people like to know more.

 

 

 

 

 

Don't stereotype me. People are creating threads for the sake of creating threads these days.

 

 

 

 

 

Who cares if how big a vial is in real life because it isn't real life it's a game and therefore doesn't bare an exact resemblance on real life. Rules of phisics etc do not apply in a virtual world. As someone said, how would you fit 28 sharks into your backback or 28 armadyl godswords... it's a game do something else with your time.

 

You just proved my point with your second sentence. People just like you were in my Orgin of Charms thread. Do something else with my time, like what? Read a book and wonder something about that book? But oh my it doesn't matter because its not real. I hate provincial people like you.

 

 

 

Back on topic: Judging from the ratio from the pic of the wielded vile i would say it is a 1 liter erlenmyer flask. So its 250 ml a dose, which is easily swallowed in two or three gulps.

Well, don't you play runescape?

 

Go do something else with your time -.-

 

 

 

Pah arrogancy these days #-o

It's not a patch on the arrogance we used to get in MY day...

 

 

 

Vials in Runescape are freakishly large. Large enough, in fact, that they are no longer vials. And, as the picture shows, they're about half as large as our heads. Now can we answer why it is possible to eat an undefined number of sharks, at least larger than your arm, one after another without exploding?

well how big is an essence? you bind it at altar its tiny you drop it on the floor its foot sized.. can be applied to any item

[ghoulmeister]

Also, phial. a small container, as of glass, for holding liquids: a vial of rare perfume; a vial of medicine.

 

 

 

Its small, thats all we know, no evidence or proof saying any exact size.

 

 

 

Well one way theoretically would be to see how much it weighs in rs and calculate that based on the mass/cm^2 in a standard vial irl.

 

It's 1g H20 = 1ml, so all we need is the weight of an empty and full vial of water, subtract and divide and we have the volume, but the problem is they have no weight.

 

 

 

Vials don't follow the laws of physics though. A vial filled with water has the same content mass as an unused potion, so you can't use a real physics formula to solve for the size.

[Warlover]

Im going to say 75ml, the same amount of 3 shots of spirits.

 

 

 

But if your under the legal age, you shouldnt drink :shame:

Well in all relaity the "vials" in runescape are more shaped like erlenmeyer flasks. Average size being 250ml. But even with that there are large ones, i have personaly used a 4 liter one.

 

 

 

I agree with this. The 'vials' are deffinatly the shape of an erlenmeyer flask. They should really be called potion flasks.

I'd say they're a bit larger than a dharok's platebody, using the inventory screen for my scale.

I think the person who said 1 liter for 1 vial is pretty right. Because when you drink a dose of potion, it's like *gulp gulp gulp* and as 4 doses fit into 1 vial, that'd be 250 ml a dose, which is easy to drink in 3 gulps. So yeah, I think 1 liter could be pretty right (also looking at the size of those vials)
