Sir_Kurity Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Unless that noted update gets reverted, i dont see a rise immenent. Unless F2p PVP gets some improvements or something like that. Or a sudden surge in popularity. That or everyone else thinks "OMG FISH PROFIT", and everyone starts buying for max for some dodgy reason.

glasscube Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Yeah, fish aren't going to recover anytime soon. Lobsters will keep dropping to about 140 gp or so I would guess. Help drive change Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beloved Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 To be honest, unless there has been some price floor removed i can't really explain the sudden fall of swordies the last week. It certainly cant be attributed to bots unless they all changed to swordies en mass. It cant be because of the fisherman either because that was over 2 months ago and the price of swordies had been stable until last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download a new script and go somewhere else, or simply change the options for your bot to fish swordfish? Help drive change Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Profins Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 As it was mentioned before, bots are to be faulted. Simple googling or even youtubing for such things can easily reveal the vast amount of bots and botters out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewing Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Lol @ everything being blamed on bots, it's not like bots weren't there before.Perm bans used to be the punishment for botting, instead of the 2-week temp bans we have now. So yeah, things have changed. Many high level players now run bot farms to have mule accounts to shift junk on.

Den Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Hm, this sounds very... fishy. Nice one! :P Fish arent the only thing with a huge crash-rate for the time. Astrals are being beaten up as well: My bet is someone had too much fish and decided to dump them all. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

GuidesForScapers Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Is due to the NPC "Stiles" being added. It allows people to note swordfish, tuna and lobsters that they fish from the Karamja fishing spots in a pretty short amount of time. Legalize baby punching. Tax and regulate it.

Mike_Ike111 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I don't see why fish are so expensive in the first place. Ever since summoning the demand for P2P fish should have dropped completely. Anybody with a bunyip can survive on just cake they've stolen from ardy and anybody with a Uni can go without food whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svs Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Summer deflation, i'll probably be right when i say the prices will start to drop in ~3 weeks and will retain a vlue just below their original value in ~5 weeks. Sudden rise of climbing boots might have some influence on the outcome, deflated items might atually rise a little bit beyond their orignal value.

GottaGetDownOnfriday Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 With a lot more free-to-play fishing bots due to the guy who notes fish at Karamaja, more swordfish and lobsters are being put into the market. After a crash there is always a rise so I will use that to my advantage. 65,280 to 99 fletching on 3-14-0940,405 to 99 woodcutting on 10-17-2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlayerMalk Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 the answer you looking for lies with me jagex decided to nerf the brew + other food combo (usually monk fish) so now you cant combo eat and lots of people would do that low level pures i suspect used some of the food such as lobs salmon trout swordfish ect that is why i think prices are crashing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raisedbyapes Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Guess it is not the best time to get 99 fish... :mellow: O well I planned on keeping a big chunk of rocktails anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brady Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Raw Sharks: They've dropped almost 800 gp in the last two months and they haven't been this low since maybe 2006 or 2007 Rocktail: They've dropped 1K in the last month. This isn't just random fluctuation, it's most likely bots that are driving the prices down. Not great to the fishers who fish for a living, but good for people looking to buy 99 cooking. 99 Cooking - August 20th, 201099 Woodcutting - September 3rd, 2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangin_Blonde Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I think fish are only used in f2p these days. Most members use Bunyips, and if they can get one, an Enchanced Excalibur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasscube Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I think the rocktail thing is natural - just look it was around the same price around 2 months ago or so. Help drive change Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AresArtemis Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Summer holiday + bots --> more supply / same or less demand --> lower prices The role bots play in this can be estimated if you compare the prices of fish to the prices of other raw materials.

bluetiger585 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 We will probably see a rise soon, as the demand will go up as more people enter the game.

MerchantInTheDark Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 From my experience this does usually happen in the mid summer due to increased supply and steady demand (more low levels playing, not that many more high levels using the materials). It'll be back up to normal by september, so I've stocked up 100M or so worth of materials to forget about until then.

Fools_Taco Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Probably because Jagax is dumping raw fish onto the GE to take gold out of the game, maybe to take some of the cash from the climbing boot update out. I'm sure its one of the reasons they implemented the GE the way that they did. And thats why they really dont care about inflation, because they can fix it.

12pure34 Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Game Updates Dungeoneering Skill! 12-Apr-2010The drop occured a week after Dungeoneering, which doesn't come as a coincidence to me. With people (especially higher levels) leveling dungeoneering (then getting to the bank, sell stuff they won't need, like food) they also stopped using food, the are the biggest users, all active members. With a large number of members just using less food, that cut in. Of course this effect was short-termed, but it had its effect. Overloads became more common as they do every day. The herblore levels are a real goal nowadays. Same goes with Soulsplit on the prayer book. Every day these become more attainable, due to time/money, food becomes obsolete. This combined with the obvious Summoning --> If you have lots of gold, these are the things they are put in.More gold due to inflation being rather harsh the last period of time, more people getting these things, less food being used. Summer-effect of course, when raw materials are gathered due to people having more time. At September, these raw products will rise again. This occurs every summer. The Brew + eat one, hardly should have had effect. Only a shock-effect for thematter, since it got changed back. Only affected sharks / cavefish / rocktail. Oil Spill (duhhh) The F2P change that allows easier access for bots. Also more people actively fishing now (especially in F2P), thus lower prices. Fishy Fingers! The D&D that gave a nice burst to P2P fishing. ________________________________________________________________________________+ Add those up and you get these prices.
