The Dark Lord Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Hmm... That looks very tempting. Not sure if I really wanna go to a Gamestop and blow $6 on that [cabbage]. I don't even play Runescape anymore either... But damn that [cabbage] looks good. SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

Kaida23 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Hmm... That looks very tempting. Not sure if I really wanna go to a Gamestop and blow $6 on that [cabbage].You mean $18 (or $15 or whatever it costs). The Ornate Katana is only being given away with the 90-day cards. Check out my blog to read the Adventures of a Big Damn (F2P) Hero. THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P. So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HexiledRazz Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I bought one myself. Turns out it's an extra $7.50 that i wouldn't have paid if i just kept my normal subscription. But I'm actually a sucker for Asian culture, specifically the Japanese. Plus i was looking for a cool weapon to wear with my main outfit, and it looked like it could have been a winner. So, me and my friend went out to gamestop and bought two cards, one for him(His membership had ran out a few days beforehand) and one for me. We got back and activated them, and were giddy over our katanas. They were a fun novelty item, but the novelty wore off after a day. As it stands now, the katana is still cool and i don't regret buying it. But it's not going to be my main weapon for my outfit. It would have been a winner if it was the stats and speed of an iron scimitar(But possibly still 2 handed). Would have been more true to actual katanas. Also it's hold animation is somewhat awkward after a while. I think it should have been the natural hold animation like scimitars and longswords are held. And when you were in combat, the holding animation changes to the battle-stance. Also, making two different holding animations for in combat and out of combat could lead to us finally being able to sheath our weapons and put our shields on our backs(An update i've been waiting on for years >.>).Oh, and the stab attack doesn't even stab. It's just the slash attack but going the opposite way. It would have been cooler if it was a full-out stab attack like the way we stab with the Zamorak spear, but over-handed. Because even the slash attack seems sorta' weak and slow... Like you put no effort into it. All in all, it's technically not real world trading as the cards cost 22.50 for 3 months over here, and the extra money is for the store's profits, and shipping/manufacturing fees, ect. But it's a step towards that direction, and Jagex has better watch out or else they'll have an item mall just like every other MMO/online game out there. Anywho, since this didn't satisfy my needs for a new weapon for my outfit... Back to trying to get ceremonial sword V plans, and smithing a perfect ceremonial steel sword. <end long response> Hexiled Razz. Player since March 8th, 2005.

The Ornate Katana is only being given away with the 90-day cards. $23 hmm $23 vs. $15. That katana isnt worth $8. Or in terms of gold sellers, that would be like 14M. So to anyone planning on spending extra money on runescape which one do you support, buying the katana for 8 bucks from Jagex or buying 14 mil from gold sellers. As far as use/worth go if you had to buy one which would it be?Except for 14m will always be available as long as RS exists, the Katana will most likely become discontinued, making it a rare item. Also I've heard of people like to collect discontinued items and even buy runefest tickets w/o attending the actual event.

Dire_Wolf Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 It¨s best to buy the katana for 14m from rwt people because it¨s stupid to not be able to get it through the game. Then again if a game company is respectful towards their players, then players should show respect back by buying katana for x dollars through Gamestop.

Kata_Phfract__the_slayer Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 a slow 2h with bad stats (although its very good stats for something requiring level 1 attack) is not worth the extra cost of getting it, at the minimum it should be obtainable by other methods. but in no ever should that way be buying it from those who do have it.once jagex gives a rare tradeable reward for become members, well, whats the difference between that and micro transactions?

Den Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Bought a gamestop card today and redeemed it. Logged on to find this: However, my bank wasnt full. Katana isn't in my bank. Tried searching for it. Diango doesn't have it in the interface with the other holiday items.Toy box in my house doesnt have a katana option either. Feel like Jagex scammed me. :( ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Beaumonde Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Except for 14m will always be available as long as RS exists, the Katana will most likely become discontinued, making it a rare item. Also I've heard of people like to collect discontinued items and even buy runefest tickets w/o attending the actual event.From the FAQ I read, it sounds like this same item is going to be available with other promotions in the future, possibly related to other payment methods. So I wouldn't bet $8 on its rarity right now. Stat Progress | Stat Averages | Stat Records Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaida23 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 What does 'exclusive item' mean to Jagex? :---)Apparently it means "offer the item to a different country every month".

amitoz Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 As long as these "vanity items" don't have OP stats I don't care.Likewise. Come to my Clan chat (I'm there if I'm online) if you wish to borrow a Green H'ween mask, Blue H'ween Mask, Red H'ween Mask, or Santa for a reasonable price.

Chayyliel Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I just picture it like one of those websites that deals in the sale of knives, swords, etc. You have display items which, frankly would work like the real deal except for the fact it's made of inferior materials and craftmanship. The fact that the katana is designated 'ornate' adds to the sense that it's of the display quality, as ornate weapons in the past were mainly donned to indicate position, power, social status, or financial status, and had no real combative value. You do, on the other had though, have combat-ready weapons which are made contemporarily for the sake of practicing in the art of the sword, but were used in the past in actual combat, which the ornate katana does not fall under this category... So in reality a vanity item based on this example would never provide any sort of advantage, and should be treated as such. Just a thought.

Thanks. |^_^|Credit card. I saved money buying the gamecard which is ironic. :PCosts me 10 norwegian kroner (about 2 us dollars) more per month to pay with credit card in norway then buying a 90 day card in the us. Only bought 90 days though.
