I was at the agility arena in Brimhaven earlier tonight getting those all important tickets and I saw a couple of guys alching while they waited for the dispensers to change. I asked what they were alching and they said feathers. Surprised, I asked why on earth feathers, they said that if you dipped them in gold somewhere in around the blast furnace in Keldagrim, they alch for 1K each and that 1 gold bar could coat about 200 feathers. I went to Keldagrim and spent a fair amount of time looking for where they might have meant, to no avail.

 

 

 

My questions are these; am I just the butt of a joke that I don't get and were they joking or is there any truth in this? Are the golden feathers stackable? And more to the point- if this is really true, where specifically do I have to go to take advantage of this "golden" opportunity? (Soz, couldn't resist!)

 

 

 

Thanks for looking,

You sir as you have put it are the "butt of a joke" :oops:

lol

Can we put this thread in an archive somewhere?

Yes, it's true.

 

 

 

Try looking harder next time.

There goes my hopes of keep it secret! :wall:

Hahaha...and the best part is, he's still gonna be confused after all your responses.

I don't know whether people are 'acting as if its a secret' but it's a load of BS or it's ACCTUALLY true.

 

Hmmm, i think it's sarcasm, so I'm not going to look into it.

a golden feather exists... http://www.tip.it/runescape/index.php?rs2item_id=829 but its not anywhere near keladgrim.

I haven't even clicked the link, but isn't that from the Priest In Peril quest?

 

 

 

EDIT: I clicked the link. But as far as I recall, there is a golden feather in PIP, you can obtain it by swapping a regular feather on the pedestal.

nope.. its from king arthur.. holy grail.

Thanks for the heads up, I thought they alched for 10k each?.... :D

you got me excited for a second there :oops:

Hahaha...and the best part is, he's still gonna be confused after all your responses.

 

 

 

Well I'll take it from those somewhat confusing respones (as indeed posted earlier) that it's not true... shame. Just out of interest, is this an old myth? Has it been going round for ages or something? Or do people just assume that it's not true because it's highly unlikely?

i dunno.. havent heard it before. went to the tip database n searched for feather.. thats the only golden one thats there.

Obviously it's not true (if it was, it would hit the economy so goddamn hard everybody would have known about it a loooong time ago, and gold would never have hit a floor for months on end), i've neevr heard this exact one before, but god knows i've heard enough similar.

 

 

 

I remember one time a guy said he got his phat by mercing waterskins on the GE...i remember being told adamantly fishing speed doubles at 25m (despite having more at the time, he still wouldn't listen to me), i've heard a lot, but never this exact rumour..

lol, I'm gona make a general disscusion post about this

 

 

 

BTW: yeah you are the butt of a joke :lol:
