The market needs unbuyables.

 

 

 

That is exactly what i have been thinking you just put it into words =D> . I am really surprised i haven't heard more people say that though.

 

We also need new cool untradeable quest rewards to serve as status symbols.

Well a few people are trading Elysian and divines for 6-8 partyhats now so I guess we have our new 3rd age.

 

 

 

So glad I have a white :P

Eh you didn't miss it completely.. Just throw some cash into partyhat offers and hope they go through, might have some luck. If not you said you have 300m+, blue still sells on the ge I think... you could go for one... And if not to that.. then well you have a nice money pile \' lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: 3rd 99 farmer in a row to post 8-) lol...

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

Make that 4 :P

 

 

 

I'm pretty happy I don't have enough money to worry about the prices of all those things, but it's quite interesting to watch the prices ::'

Even though I could mess with hats and 3rd age I just don't anymore. There is way too much dumping these days where you could have an item worth 200m at one minute then it's worth 100% junk the next just because some clan throws tons of them into the GE.

 

 

 

Although I miss merchanting the old school way using 3rd age :cry:

Master Smither is correct, in this economy, your stuff can be worth 100m over street price, you could leave for an hour, and come back to find out that it became total junk. (Which I've actually seen alot, good way to get deals tbh)

 

 

 

However thats why it comes to the fact that if your trying to hoard and merchant these things, you have to at least understand thats a risk you take.

 

 

 

Still, like always said.. rares are always going to be rare... they're always leaving the game, no matter what happens they will always get rarer and be worth something in the end...

Good idea -- like a cape or something! Oh, wait, never mind.

New summon monster. You get 99 summon and complete a hard quest to gain the ability to summon Jesus, who splits the waters allowing you to walk to a new port town where you unlock the sailing skill. Obviously ;)

 

That was Moses you idiot.

 

That gets fixed in the bugfix the following week. Maybe.

Am I the only one who noticed that an Elysian sold on the GE today? :?

 

 

 

Actually yes, Lol.

 

 

 

Makes sense to me though, Although Ely/Div are having a nice run, it won't last forever, and within weeks, or a few months, they probably will be down to ge price. (I was going to say crash, but they won't become worthless, I can see them being traded on the ge for a high price sometime soon though.)

 

 

 

Who knows, they might become easy for buyers to get soon.

Elysian is the most overrated item in the game. Unless you have excess cash, it's not worth even the 250m GE price. With that money, you could buy 99 ranged, 99 prayer, 99 summoning, an SGS, and have some left over. The small increase in efficiency over a DFS isn't enough to justify the cost. Even with a DFS and unicorn, you can last over four hours at Armadyl or Saradomin in a trio/quartet. An elysian is just overkill.

 

 

 

A divine is more worth the money than elysian, but it's also even greater overkill. Who the hell would want to stay at Saradomin or Armadyl for six freaking hours in one trip? I, personally, would be bored out of my mind. Another strike against these two shields is that yeah, you may last a while longer than everybody else, but what does it matter? Are you willing to solo when you are low on supplies?

 

 

 

People pay handsomely for the best, and these shields are undoubtedly the best. However, I do not see them as being close to worth their cost. If I got a sigil CS/FFA, I'd first offer it at market price to some of my friends, and if no one wants it, I'd sell it in the GE for whatever I could get. I honestly couldn't give a damn less about "street price." I do not have any junk, am not compelled to waste my time collecting junk, and that would STILL be over 100m+ gp that I didn't have before. I could get some third age with my sigil, but why bother? For looking cool, I have and prefer my full dragon. I really like what they did with the plate and legs, but that's off-topic.

Am I the only one who noticed that not a single yellow sold on the GE today? I doubt more than 2-3 of the other hats sold.
