Future Prices of Runes

[Unb34t4bl3]

Does anyone have any speculation as to what the future prices of runes will be, now that unlimited stock has been removed? As of today death runes can only really be bought at max (356gp) and other runes are also difficult to buy.

 

 

 

If I had to take a guess on the prices in the long term, I'd go with...

 

 

 

Fires: 10-12ea

 

Airs: 16-18ea

 

Earth: 25-27ea

 

Water: 27-30ea

 

 

 

Chaos: No idea

 

Cosmic: 220-230ea

 

Nature: 250-270ea

 

Death: 350-400ea

 

Blood: 500-600ea

 

Soul: 600-700ea

 

Astral: No idea

Why would fires rise? They're junk.

Fire runes are junk? :shock:

 

 

 

I thought the reason they were so cheap was because of the unlimited stock selling them at 9ea before? And now shops sell them at 17ea? And that's just the initial price too, so the source of fires will have to be from rune crafters.

most slayer monsters drop fire runes, I serious slayer can have over 100k fire runes from drops alone.

Or people killing fire giants/dust devils :roll:

I'll just throw in 2 things:

 

 

 

(1) I've been getting 220 each for astrals this past week

 

(2) I've been buying up pure essence, and will continue to hoard up as often as I can afford it

Are you both saying that monster drops can fill in for the unlimited supply of previously? Even for a common drop like fire runes?

 

 

 

I don't go kill fire giants or dust devils for 6 straight hours to get a decent amount of fire runes, nor do I slay, but I'd find it very hard to believe that monster drops could fill in for the unlimited supply.

Fire giants are a common + ;arge task and drop them very often, also noone really needs an unlimited supply, i have 60k in my bank atm all from fire giants/dusties

Don't forget though, fire runes previously had almost no use. Now, anybody doing combat spell (non ancient) will usually use fire based spells (wave bolt etc) previously they would use fire or lava staff, but now with the 10% bonus, people will need to buy the runes instead, which could increase the demand alot.

No it's not. First - People were using Air staves (because since Fire Bolt they were cheaper in runes), second, not many of the players will even attempt to get the 10% bonus, because it adds some good gp/cast (Fire wave = 7 Fire runes, considering 1 fire rune is 10 gp, it adds 70 gp/cast for 1 or 2 bonus max damage)

Alright I was already completely wrong about the Earth Runes. They're already at what I said above, and will likely push above tomorrow as it's still extremely slow trying to buy for max on GE. Going to update my original post. Now seems to be the time to just load up while everything is still "cheap".
