keeping some runes when you die *idea*

[kolko]

Since mages have to bring loads of runes when pking, i thought out this idea.

 

 

 

You could buy 'rune boxes' in the magic shop for 20k each, each of those rune boxes could carry a maximum of 100 runes (of one kind)

 

 

 

When you die, each of the boxes would count as one item, so you would not lose all of your runes.

 

 

 

It would still be possible to take runes with you the normal way offcorse

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PRO'S:

 

 

 

Keeping more runes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CONTRA'S:

 

 

 

More inventory space taken, so less food

 

 

 

The price

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is something that could be implemented to make it better

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It would have to be so you remove runes from the box before you use them, so there is more space taken, but easier to carry mass amounts of runes without fear :P

The con is negated as it takes the same amount of space for a small trip. The idea only works if you are doing major amounts of attacking

That's true :? , maybe lower the ammount of runes in a box?

Not really as that dont work eathier, what you need is some sort of way to make 'spell' runes rather than just one rune. So instead of getting something like firebolt rune or telly other rune. This would mean you could carry one rune in the place of many. The problem would be in making them and once made would only be usable for that spell nothing else

It's a good idea, but it would have to be so you remove runes from the box before you use them, so there is moer space taken, but easier to carry mass amounts of runes without fear :P

And then out of the shadows lurks a pker who kills the person who has justed picked up 3 rune helms. bang. The pker then picks up 3 boxes full of law runes...

No one brings more than 2 law runes to the wilderness ;)

Fine 3 boxes of death runes or something because they are going pking

[eliisgood]

well, it would be a good idea, although I think that the player who gets killed still drops one-fourth of the runes that they are carrying (whether they are in the boxes or not); this would prevent mages from "three iteming" in a new and strange way (especially if they were using the new Lava or Mist or whatever runes).

The risk of pking as a mage is losing your runes. Are rangers going to get quivers, and meleer's going to get... something that saves them money when they die too? :?

:idea: Y doesn't runescape just go to using mana then and have mana restore potoing for f2p to use??

Why don't you post something useful?

 

 

 

It is because the runes are in the game since the begining, they can't change it now

[cubegenius]

runescape is not like other games thats why you do not have mana.

 

 

 

do u honstly want runescape to just become a poor mans everquest. Plus its called runescape and maybe the geniuses who marketed this idea thought that the game should have runes so that idoits would not complain about a game not having runes and it being called runescape.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you did not understand pm me for a more complete explanation.

[Doritokiller]

That's the risk of being a mage in the wilderness. Same goes with rangers, they can lose arrows. Warriors lose armor.

[Toxicologist]

Wells, apersonal objection: runes should be carried in pouches and bags, not boxes. =)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And how do you judge the value of a box? Is it by the runes it contains, or merely the box as itself?
