Possible dragon pickaxe, but does Adze deserve it?


Atom Smash40

Recommended Posts

Ok, so I was playing just now when a question entered my mind (and asked to me by a friend). Since the Inferno Adze is the two best woodcutting and mining tools combined in one, should it get an upgrade once the Dragon Pickaxe comes out (to keep it as the 'best')?

 

 

 

I say no, because people who already have Adze will get a *possibly* free upgrade. An upgrade that in the first month of the new pick's release could be worth somewhere in the 10M range, maybe more. Granted, they can't sell Adze to turn a profit, but they wouldn't need to buy the new pick and spend 10M either. It wouldn't be fair, in my mind, to those people who don't have Adze but would like the best pick in the game to drop 10M of their cash to get it, whereas Adze really only costs about 2M max (to get 92 Firemaking to wield).

 

 

 

What are your thoughts?

dragon pick will probably be somewhere between rune and inferno adze tbh

Damnit, I tripped over Magzar's half inflated blow-up doll and hurt myself. I wish he wouldn't leave that thing lying around. -.-

In my opinion with the Azde released, the Dragon Pickaxe would completely overshadow it when it comes out. I know alot of people who hate FM ;)

 

 

 

I think they should upgrade Azde to be more powerful for skilling, maybe do a mini-quest in mining/woodcutting to upgrade it in the chosen skill?

Maybe an extra mini quest or something to upgrade it?

 

 

 

Or maybe you have to get a Dragon pickaxe, take it to some guy, and he upgrades it for free?

 

(If there was a fee, then nobody would do it)

how is that possible? adze is on par with rune pick, and both require 41 mining. drag pick will be probably 61 mining. so....a pick that requires a higher level will be worse than those that require a lower level...are you thinking straight?

The Inferno Adze is a multi-tool and in my opinion is more related to firemaking than mining. I feel that it deserves no update and that the Dragon Pickaxe will/should be the superior tool for mining. Condering the Dragon Pickaxe will likely be an expensive item at the start I am sure that the Adze will still have a place for those who don't want to hand out the cash early on. The fact that it has multiple uses makes it special in it's own way.

 

 

 

I personally want a Dragon Pickaxe as I prefer solely mining over getting 91 firemaking for the Adze. ::'

you need 92 firemaking actually...

 

:lol:

I don't know which mod did this. I don't know why they did it. If they're looking for money, I can tell them I don't have any as I'm a student. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over 4 years of RuneScape. Skills that I have worked hard for and people like them can't take them away. If they give me my particles back now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for them, I will not pursue them. But if they don't, I will look for them, I will find them, and they won't like what'll happen

The Adze was more of a Anti-Junk tool, rather than a level enhancement.

 

 

 

It was designed to reduce the huge number of logs collected by players everyday with woodcutting. It was also made as a pickaxe simply to make it a more desirable tool. But as for level's, like other have said, its level is the same as the rune pickaxe, and mines ores at the exact same speed as the rune pickaxe.

 

 

 

The introduction of the Dragon Pickaxe will not really effect the Adze, since the adze will be slower, and it's supposed to be slower (or equal to the speed of the dragon equivalent)

 

 

 

The only change I see is perhaps making the Adze have a 1/3 chance to destroy ores when mined with it make the mine-then-drop-for-XP process a tad easier.

 

 

 

Other than that, I don't see anything changing on it.

There will probably be an upgrade, whether people find it fair or not. And personally I think there should be a 33% chance that when mining an ore, it will smelt it for free so long as you have all the other required ore in your inveotry.

An adze or adz (pronounced /ædz/) is a tool used for smoothing rough-cut wood in hand woodworking.

 

 

 

It's not a pickace and it shouldn't have been a pickaxe too imo. I doubt it will get the upgrade because well it'd be a free upgrade to a new item and it is not ment for woodcutting(or atleast in real life).

 

 

 

Now of course as stated above if the person has 92 mining it would sound reasonable but then again the dragon pickaxe will be worth ~10-20M and the adze didn't require 92 woodcutting to use.

I think that if a person has 92 mining the adze should be upgradeable to a dragon pickaxe quality for free. Before that it should remain as it is.

 

 

 

That would destroy the price of the dragon pickaxe.

So that people can use the Adze as a free dragon pickaxe? Hell no.

 

 

 

Dragon pickaxe is likely gonna be a monster drop from a boss monster. Giving people a free dragon pickaxe undermines the purpose of getting it as a drop.

my thoughts exactly. it wouldn't be fair, no matter the cost of the upgrade (if there is one). tbh adze should stay as it is. giving it a free pick upgrade is just fail by jagex

To everyone saying the adze would crash the dragon pickaxe market, what about dragon axes?

 

I don't really know what you're trying to say...mining and wc are EXTREMELY different. a drag pick wouldn't affect the axe price as they are different skills to begin with, and the dry axe probably won't go any lower

 

 

 

if you're saying why don't we talk about adze vs drag wc axe, the adze was released when drag axe had been out over 2 years. so there are already many of them in circulation, so there are too many for the price to be affected heavily

looks like using it to mine wouldn't be unrealistic

 

 

 

btw sorry i thought the adze was better for mining than a rune pick my mistake

I believe the Adze should be upgraded at a later time, after the price of the dragon pickaxe is allowed to fluctuate.

 

Once it stabilizes the adze should be equal to the dragon pickaxe.

 

 

 

Other option:

 

If the dragon pickaxe is sold in a shop after a quest, why not just give the adze the ability.
