Handle with care: Dragon Claws

[Unknown_Warrior]

So I (apparently) got incredibly lucky these 2 days, seeing I got Dragon Claws twice on my first kill.

 

So now I have 2 pair of claws, but I don't junk and only 10M gp.

 

 

 

How would you people suggest I do with these? I've basically been lending them for a fair amount, yet I want some cash out of them.

 

 

 

And I'm not selling market price, I know their worth.

[BBC3]

keep lending and stock up on more, or wait for them to peak

[OmidSan]

go get 99 fletch and then you'll have junk :)

Best choice would be to wait for the GE to catch up to market price. While that's happening, you can lend them out for any junk you may have, people will pay alot for a mere 1 hour of d claws.

 

 

 

Don't hunt for junk unless you can get more gp worth of junk in an hour then you would normally get standard cash (eg. If you make 1m/hr at GWD don't collect junk that would give you a profit of 700k/hr). It's your choice if you want to collect junk, but you have to be dedicated to get enough junk to sell d claws for street price.

waitin for the price to get up would take forever...

[StrikerRay]

If you wait for it to catch up with the actual price, the demand might go down, and they might crash :S Or they might just crash because the price isnt moving fast enough?

I know, which is why I need advice.

 

 

 

I calculated it'd take 52 days for it to get to 20M at 4% rise every day. And that's not even half the street price.

As someone said, get 99 Fletching. You'll be creating junk while training your skill. The only problem is that probably won't even be enough junk to even the trade out.

[Unknown_Warrior]

I'd rather not be forced to train a skill to 99 just to create junk.

This.

 

 

 

I honestly have no idea what you can do. Waiting usually leads to failure (pages, animal masks, etc). Fletching... why would you settle for slow xp when you can gain REAL money and gain twice as fast xp? Don't make junk via fletching... there is no actual way to make junk, to be honest :XD:

[Peterblue]

Trade them for another inflated item? Give em away as a Christmas present? To me? There really aren't very many alternatives.

with two claws, you might get lucky with some 3rd age melee pieces. if you're not going to trade, then wait. but reassure that you are risking millions of profit by doing so.

[Assassin1357]

id say just lend them out, you could probably make a few mil or more a day lending them out

I have 10M gp, I can't even get 3a in a trade if I offer all my cash and the claws.

[ultimatballr]

Wait the 52 days, hope the prices don't bomb and sell em for 40m and be happy you got that much with no junk.

 

 

 

 

 

(20m * 2 claws = 40m.. I know some people would question me saying 40m :roll: )

1) Sell them on the ge: Stupid.

 

 

 

2) Sell them with junk: No way of gathering junk is fast enough to compete with actual money making.

 

 

 

3) Get 99 fletch: Booring + slow money is a no unless you want the cape.

 

 

 

4) Lend them: Without junk, you won't be making much, but I guess it's better than nothing.

 

 

 

5) Keep them to gloat/lend to friends/keep a bank space holder: Kind of lame, no profit.

 

 

 

6) Make a few more mill and trade them + cash for something 3rd age, like mage hat / coif / amulet: The tiny stat boosts are kind of money unefecient, I presume you've got priorities.

 

 

 

7) Alch them: No.

 

 

 

8) Wait: Seems like the only choice.

Why don't you just use them to speed up the one skill you enjoy. Lets say you like smithing, just start making the best armor you can and then using the armor as junk for lending or trading. You would buy 10mil worth of bars, smith 10mil worth of addy equipment, and sell that junk w/ your dragon claw to someone for profit.

 

 

 

This doesn't have to only pertain to smithing, lets say you like to train Magic, just buy stuff to enchant because the enchanted items are always more expensive and technically they're junk.

 

 

 

Tell me what you think, and what skill you want to train if you like this idea. I could dish out some nice formulas for you. :

 

 

 

Merry x-mas too.
