Jeffwilson99 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Ok I just got the "extremely" rare Left half drop, but I'm not sure of what use it is to me. On the G.E., the Left Half is only worth around 65k, and the right half 750k. However the Dragon Square shield is only worth 500k at this point in time. So, If I was to buy the Right half, I will just lose money, whether I keep or sell the Sq Sheild... It just feels wrong to get rid of such a rare (yet worthless) drop... Should I just sell it? And if so, will anyone actually buy it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kellis Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Keep it in your bank, get the other half once you've got the money (buy it from legends guild), and once you've got both halves, simply wear it as a status symbol while you're alching something or doing some non-combat task. Really not much other use for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffwilson99 Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 I have the money to buy the other half, but the problem is that it's cheaper to buy a complete on for 500k, than pay 750k for the right half.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opieous Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Just Sell it... and pray someone buys it... :wall: 99 Woodcutting | 99 Constitution | 99 PrayerScapin since July 05' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Pity though, The Shield is the very icon (and the Cape itself) of a Legend, an old Quest of Heroic Deeds. Now the shield is mearly as pastime object of low value. :cry: Popoto.~<3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffwilson99 Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 Do you think if Jagex lowered the price that the Right half sells for at the Ledgends Guild, (eg: lowered to around 250k), then the price of the complete Square Shield wouldn't be to adversely affected?

gun_hippy Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Do you think if Jagex lowered the price that the Right half sells for at the Ledgends Guild, (eg: lowered to around 250k), then the price of the complete Square Shield wouldn't be to adversely affected? It would drop even more, because right now lots of halves are alched. If it was profitable to make the shield, nobody would alch, so lots more would be in the market, and there's just not enough demand (hence them being so low right now). I imagine it would drop fairly quickly, then just continue its current slow dwindling spiral downwards. Nobody wants them :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chumley Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I'd just make the shield. I have a d med from fire giants from like 6 months ago sitting in my bank, lol Why on earth would you do that when you could buy a completed shield for 200k less?

chris924 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 It took me 9.1 million HP experience to get my first Dragon Left half drop (from abby demons) only to get a SECOND a mere 100k hp exp later. I was in the same situation as you not sure what to do. Ultimately I put them on the GE and they both sold for around 70k each. Such a sad state the DLH has gone into. Problem is there are so many better alternatives for the shield spot. I paid 4.8 mil for my first one just before the obby shield and defenders came along and made it dive, now there is the dfs and the new elemental(?) shield do-dads fro the Summers End quest. Summary: sell it, or keep it in your bank for sentimental value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
