the price diff. between dragon pl8 legs & skirts

Recommended Posts

Isn't it strange that while the dragon pl8 legs cost like 600k but the skirt cost only around 160-180k, they offer exactly the same stats and only differ by their outlook? Why is that so? I wonder if female characters are being discriminated or what?

It's basically because most players are of the mentality that if they wear a skirt it isn't manly and makes their character look less cool. They are both the same, except for the skirt weighing less.

 

 

 

It has nothing to do with discrimination, it's just because adolescent boys are immature and really think that it matters whether or not they wear platelegs as opposed to a skirt.

EDIT - Signature far exceeds our sig limits but since it's so colourful you can keep it.

Because Legs look so much better then the skirt, but the breeze is nice ;) . For most people its Looks > Stats. Thats a reason some people use Bandos over Barrows, it looks cooler. And the prayer isn't half bad.

New-wave tried to destroy the metal, but the metal had its way

Grunge then tried to dethrone the metal, but metal was in the way

Punk-rock tried to destroy the metal, but metal was much too strong

Techno tried to defile the metal, but techno was proven wrong

Yea!Metal!

It comes from hell!

It doesn't matter, as long as there is a leg that is one of the best. ;)

I always pick d skirt over d legs. There is no stat difference which justifies the cost difference and tbh who cares about the little frill at the bottom?

I remember back in the days of being obssesed with RuneScape, and YouTube, I saw a video once, the only thing I can remember (which is probably good :oops: ) is somewhere in it, something about Verac, real men wear skirts. :thumbsup:

Legs looks better. Most of the RS population agrees, look at the prices. It has nothing to do with being an 'immature kid'. Seriously, stop flaming people because you can't afford the extra 500k for legs/ think you're grownup because you use 'immature kid' to flame others.

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

ooh really now?only flaming i see here is you and your not needed post about "stop flaming people because you can't afford the extra 500k for legs". Honestly only reason that the legs are higher priced is because their more in demand than the skirt. Personally im a male character and before i started wearing barrows armor i used the torso+d skirt combo and it worked perfectly fine for me.

I know a way to prevent a flame war from starting...

 

 

 

Instead of calling it a Dragon Skirt, let's call it a Dragon Kilt. That way, no one will be "ashamed" to wear it. I myself am wearing a Verac's "Kilt".

You didn't use "immature kids". I was not talking to you.

I think the reason for d legs to be so expensive is that many people think it looks better on male character than a skirt. Or people want to show of their wealth? I dunno, I bought d legs before I realized that d skirt was so much cheaper but I think I would have been bought the legs anyway. It's just a matter of opinion.
