The Short Living Item


Zapados153

Recommended Posts

I was trying to buy some Dragon Claws today and I was saying buying Dragon Claws on G.E well after about three days I decided to manuly sell them so I went around saying "Selling Dragon Claws! Trade Me!" When four people come up and say you have 100M? I said "No" then everyone said "Well Dragon Claws are 100M" Later I saw people saying Buying Dragon Claws 100M! I was mad! :evil: Dragon Claws look so cool and they probably give alot of exp with their special attack and plus at the rate they attack at your opponet cant have food :D but come on 100M?

 

 

 

I hope it is just a phase not like the Dragon Chainbody or I'm ready to rip my hair out -.-

 

 

 

The Dragon Claws are so worth 2M with their EXP and special attack but I would honestly buy 100M worth of Meat then that :oops:

 

 

 

If they made it so you can smith Dragon Claws it would tramaticly lower the price but I'm only lvl 21 Smithing :mrgreen:

 

 

 

Happy Holidays

It happens to every new item. As the supply increases and more people get it / try it out, the prices will plummet down.

 

 

 

I suggest waiting a month or two, if they're not nerfed by then, they'll be much cheaper.

100m? Pshh that's junk traders for you. I seriously doubt even one person with dragon claws is going to have 97m worth of junk. They'll just get traded for 3a, which is basically just trading one theoretical price for another. I really wish Jagex would just set the price at ~20m right now. I bet you a lot of people with claws would rush to sell them for the tangible money and they'd plummet.

It's called selling D Claws + Phat. :wall:

Yes, it's very nice when you can't sell your party hat and you get claws as a drop from the demons, but not everyone has a party hat.

Well, I bet the claws will rise for a few days/weeks still. It's basically a must-have for them hardcore PK'ers.

 

 

 

Just terrible they're priced that low. I wholeheartedly agree that Jagex should simply manually adjust the price. After all, it's easier to plummet than rise on the GE. Nothing that can be done wrong by listening to the players once in a while.

Why are they all of a sudden not worth 100m because you say? Or because other people say?

 

 

 

I can understand if people were tying to manipulate it, but people are willingly paying that price. If people who have high sums of cash deem something worth their time to buy it for whatever price they want, then apparently they are worth that to some players.

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: Hate to also be a d**k about this, but the only people I see complaining are all of those who don't have the 100m that others are paying... Therefore most say "Omg... I think they're 3m so I'm going to pay 3m but people are offering 100m they arent worth that."

 

 

 

If anything trade limits to blame as well... Most items crash easily, no matter how good they are, by now.

the trick is to balance all of these methods to get 99 and either play real life or train another skill while farming.

i don't think they'll ever do that. (jagex manually changing the price) they just won't admit they change prices on anything in any way, i believe

you'd say it too if you were a poor 100+ player. -.-

 

 

 

i'll give Jagex a good "pat on the back" when they release something for Mid Level players, 90-110 because so far nothing has gone to us for plenty of months now.

Look, almost every single update in the past 3 years was geared at mid level players.. This is a GRANDMASTER quest, the HARDEST one in the game. So no, a level 90-110 isn't going to get d claws.

Well, let's see here.... New weapon with awesome special attack that everyone wants (very high demand), a limited supply to start with followed by a major nerfing of the monsters that drop them in order to try and save another item's price (d plate). Oh, and I almost forgot the fact that everyone that has one but doesn't have the junk to get the price they want is just holding on to them until the GE price, which Jagex had to set at 150k and won't manually update even though they said they had a team for that very purpose (very low supply at GE price).

 

 

 

High demand + low supply = very high prices. Just wait a few weeks/months for the price to rise to where people without junk start selling them and then wait out the price crash. Not sure where they'll level out, but I'm guessing they'll be at at least 5-10 mill for a while (remember, tormented demons aren't soloable any more (so far as I know)).

The reason they were set so low in the first place is because Jagex figured that they most match the Dragon Dagger, so they put it around the price range of a dragon dagger (well not exactly but you get my point). I was also wondering, if you get D claws or any item for coinshare, does it actually go onto grand exchange, or do you just recieve the coins and the item never really is there?

low supply high demand.

 

 

 

Basic math and new item logic

 

 

 

Give it into mid feb and d claws will crash like crazy to hit the GE price and then from there enter a perptual value drop much like whips, d boots etc go through where day by day they lose a tiny amount of value until they land at about 100k - 1mil and settle until a new better weapon arrives and causes them to slide further down the price scale.

Sorry, but what you tried was quite... Dumb. Look at the ge chart, shows no hint of dropping, right? That comes about when you have half od rs offering max in GE for them. If someone sold them in GE, for whatever price, do you honestly think that ge would choose *you* out of the thousands of others? That's provided IF someone is stupid enough to sell them on GE. The smart thing would have been to try buy them in trade, even then, I can't see anyone dumb enough to do it.

 

 

 

Besides that, every item has it's hype, but will D claws be "short lived"? I doubt it. Look at the GS's and their PvP potential, now look at their prices. Clearly, SGS has been proven more worthwhile, yet the AGS which has more PvP potential is far above SGS's price. D claws will never drop low, especially with the tormented demons nerf. Save up or tough luck.

You obviously don't understand the whole "junk trading" thing. The item's not worth 100M, the junk is. No one would pay 100M cash in return for a pair of Dragon Claws alone, that'd be just stupid. Trading money for the item & junk means you're actually getting said item at trade price.

 

 

 

And Wow, you would buy them for the XP you get? Lol. It's not an "experience special" it's a potentially-lethal-ko'ing-weapon.

The Dragon Claws are so worth 2M with their EXP and special attack but I would honestly buy 100M worth of Meat then that :oops:

 

 

 

 

I really do not agree. (And wow thats a lot of threads)

 

 

 

You are talking about a weapon which has 2 special attack chances, each one has the potential to K0 almost anybody other than those with 97hp or more, and even then the second spec will get them.

 

 

 

IMO this spec is equal if not much better than the armadyl GS special attack which is priced at 60M. The special makes the 60m not the GS, seeing as Bandos GS is 18m, lets say the spec alone is about 45M?

 

 

 

Either way, you only have to see a few BH D Claw vids to see how overpowered they are. I do not expect they will allow anybody but the utmost elite and rich to get these items, and the day the medium leveled semi-rich person gets the claws for 2m will be the day RS combat dies.
