Training range on f2p

Featured Replies

I never thought I'd find myself posting in the rants section, but coming back from a 6 month hiatus and finding this update has really made me rage.

 

 

So I finished up my last 20k bronze arrows on my tank and decide to buy more. I'm out ready to shell some mad gp for that 99 range. (not too mad, irons are too expensive for my liking)

Much to my surprise there's a 1k limit at the shop. Well I buy them up and hop worlds to buy more like back in the old days. Ok well you gotta do what you gotta do.

 

0 stock. 0 stock. 0 stock. 0 stock. 0 stock. 1 stock.

 

Now I'm like this.

O well, I'll just put in the ge for 100k bronze arrows at max. 2 days later, 1k arrows. Not even enough to last me an hour.

At this point I'm thinking...

Guess I'll just max constitution instead of range then. I mean, we can just make our own arrows. O wait, this is f2p.

So sorry for you.

Try finding a p2p supplier, maybe?

Ummmmmm.....................

Not much to say.

 

If you want to find me in Runescape, my name is not applyapple. It is vetoscadiva.

 

Complain as you like about Jagex, but think about what they've done. How many MMORPG designers go around to creating as complex an in-game world as Jagex? They do need to get around to making a equipable knife, though.

 

With everyone's complaining about updates, it's amzing that there isn't a forum topic on the fact that the chat box says "You can't reach that" (as opposed to "I can't reach that!").

On the search. So are hundreds of others.

 

Not much to say. Most members don't fletch bronze arrows, very few monsters drop them in any quantity, and thus there isn't a huge supply. Just hope that you get lucky and can get your arrows soon. Good luck.

I'll just wait until my order is filled I guess or just pony up the gp for the irons, if they're even available.

 

Go kill some minotaurs, they drop tons of iron arrows.

They don't actually. They drop them often but in small quantities. Easier just to skill and make gp for irons.

 

 

 

I'm not on a crusade here against jagex. What's done is done, though I'm rather disappointed.

Disregard females.

This is another reason why Fletching should become a F2P skill. MOAR ARROWZ SUPPLY IN GE PLZ.

 

Also, you can "profit" iron arrows if you range minotaurs, so no, the amounts aren't small.

 

I always end up with ~500 more iron arrows than what I started with every trip to these guys.

You may also want to try buying iron arrows in the GE. If you'll notice, a bar of bronze is worth more than a bar of iron. So of course no one makes bronze arrows.

Go kill some minotaurs, they drop tons of iron arrows.

thats what i would do but around 60 range you start killing them so fast there's no room for multitasking. i kill moss giants at 84 range and it gives me enough time between mossies to surf the web or tip.it. Now is that the best way to train range effectively and efficiently, gawd no but it keeps me from melting, which in this 100 degree weather here it could possibly happen

So true, lol

 

=================================================

 

Well, you dont really need to buy all your arrows in one ridiculously huge stack, why dont you just buy them in 2-3k bunches then go sell the loots from monster drops in between? That way you can buy reasonably strong arrows and still profit depending on what you kill.

Unlimited stock always caused major inflation and and price fluctuations for the items that were of any use. Buy for cheap from store, sell higher on street or forums or GE. Eventually supply is way too high from everyone doing so, and prices crashes. Repeat.

Street price/GE price never goes over the price in the stores with unlimited stock lmfao.

 

Unlimited stock did WAYYYYYYY more good than bad.

Hypocrite. You tell others to be nice then attempt to murder people. Nice going, you just failed life.

If you think that, then I think your economics professor should have his education license revoked.

Smithing - Melee armour.

Runecrafting - Magic runes.

Fletching - ?????

 

What's with the missing skill? As far as I know, ranged is pretty much limited in F2P. Our source of arrows? Members. Our source of green d'hide? Members. And yet we can make full rune in F2P, make almost the required runes in F2P.

examples?

 

Bronze knives and bronze arrows were more expensive in the GE. You could go to shops and buy unlimited for slightly cheaper. I'm just trying to comprehend how rich I'd be right now if I invested all my gp in bronze knives..

 

I don't pick up my arrows so bronze is ideal. 1 iron arrow costs the same as 3 bronze arrows. I'll take the bronze.

It's not an example, but my plan to get rich levying lockpicks from thwait to the ge was ruined by limited shop stock.

For the last time, 'lols' mean nothing. You cant just laugh at someone in the middle of a debate insisting that they are wrong and expect to win the argument. All it does it make you look like a self-righteous [wagon]. Exhibiting the need to attack others to prove a point is a blatant sign of weakness.

Obviously I assume too much when I assume that others have good common sense on this thread.

 

I am loling sarcastically because this post is so sarcaStic (or the poster is just stupid) because useless/pointless updates are released all the time by jamflex.

 

Just going to post the biggest most recent example:

Constitution (self explanitory really, but assuming people have my common sense will land me getting flamed tbh.)

 

Useless update that still pisses me off to this day.

 

10 year olds love big numbers. Do we need more 10 year olds playing runescape? No.

 

Jagex stated that they would put some new stuff in with new hp, hasent happened yet. If you are going to change something, at least make it better, not worse.

it makes almost no difference to game play.

 

now we should stop feeding the troll :shame:

DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers rings

QBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow parts

CR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size.

It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.

I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).
