20 April 2006 - Rune Essence adjustment

Featured Replies

Not a bad idea. Only thing that sucks is if i want to craft some airs, i have to go to F2P and mine.

 

 

 

You obviously didnt read what that said

me and my brothers were always greatful of the autoers... made it so we could buy cheep essenece as low as 25 ea...

 

 

 

well, now its a lil' different. oh well :(

 

 

 

 

 

honestly, what members actually mine essense... i thought it was done 100% by the free world.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i'm guesing essence is going to rise to the price of flax. make it so that the essence is more expensive than chaos.. and only worth it if you craft natures.

I skill. If you skill you should join.

Hang on a minute here, i just thought, what about elemental runes, will there prices fall or rise???, because there may be some money to be made in F2P RCing if there is a drop in ess but a continuous rune price, i mean c'mon people, surely if you buy ess low, and make airs at even X2, you get double your money back

I love how people on the forums are acting like the ultimate authority on the prices, like they know for certain what high price pure essence should be at.

 

For p2p crafters it shouldn't be a problem because all the money is easily made back. It's just going to be a lot more expensive for the world 66 power levellers. Not to mention this kind of disconnects p2p from f2p players even more.

this is one thing that i dont agree with at all, i just started to raise my RC lvl by making nats and luckily i bought all the ess that i needed to get to the lvl that i wanted, which then turned pure so im not bothered about the short term but in the long term lvling RC will be a very expencive prospect and i dont think that i will be going above the final lvl after i have made all my pure ess into nats untill i can afford it easily

 

 

 

i had an idea which i posted in the disscusions and sugestions thread (but most people dont look there so this is it http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=444090 ) please look at it and comment

 

 

 

also with the scarsity of pure ess its price will go up, some people are already charging 100+ per P-ess which will also make RC a less profiable skill for high levels

anyone followed the progress of snowsweet on the rate this board?

 

 

 

He sure is scr*wed. He was mining ess till lvl 99, he's 73 at the moment, had over 200k ess. As he's F2P, I'm afraid they didn't turn into pure ess? Or did I misread that?

 

 

 

Anyway, I don't like this update. It's a stab in the back for new young rs players. It was an easy source to get cash from to start off. The people who used ti to eraly get rich, can do other things on F2P, but the fresh load of players now has lost a good moneymaker :(

I know what I know and what I know might well not be what you want to know but then seeing as only I know what I know and you do not know what I know then you will not know if what I know is what you would like to know

They need to fix something about the yews in ftp because my one friend is 91 wc and he wc's in ftp because he hasnt had members for a while and he constantly sees at least 5 macroers at varrock yews in every world and he gets like 2 logs per tree.

I agree with you wholeheartly. RCers would not accept pure ess prices that will make runecrafting unprofitable. The price for Pure Ess seem to have stabilized between 40-50gp, which is the price for ess before the steep drop in the past few months.

 

 

 

Will RC die? No. RC will remain a profitable skill, maybe not as profitable as before, but certainly not useless. The price of ess has been artifically deflated by autoers, so the price hike due to this update is just putting ess price at its rightful place. nonauto Ess miners deserve the earning rise.

All I learned in life, I learned on Tip.it

nonauto Ess miners deserve the earning rise.

 

 

 

Non Auto P2P ess miners might i add, i think that's highly unfair, non Auto F2P lose there income totally, which was some of my friends, who may undoubtedly quit now, they've lost their income that they were working on, and so high leveled miners as well

You guys seem to be missing a part of why this is supposed to prevent macroers. By making pure essence p2p and requiring lvl 30 Jagex is saying their macro detectors will catch all offenders before they reach the magic lvl and thus the macroers won't be able to get to a high enough lvl to sell pure essence before they're banned.

Sigh.. where was martha stewart on this one, I could of used some insider information.

If you activate your bot when you reach lvl 30, there won't be anything that prevents macroers from mining...

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

macroers = owned

 

f2p money makers=dead. guess i better start getting me some yews....

Umm...I started a new "pure RC" account not ver long ago, and I easily got him to 30 mining in a day...

Need assistance in any of these skills? PM me in game, my private chat is always ON

Im nuetral here. Firstly i was happy because the ess price should have increased again, now im p*ss*d of f because free players will find it a lot harder to make money. I guess it backs to lvl my wc.

Sorry, but do Jagex actually think this will solve anything?

 

It just means the autoers will still mine the essence, still craft the air runes and still make absurds amount of money. Biggest pile of smeg I've ever read. It's a mockery of a sham of a sham of a mockery of a mockery inside a sham wrapped up inside of a mockery.

 

 

 

Oh man, to the staff member who conjured up this beauty, give him a Darwin award! :lol:

I hate this update... totally screwed people who alch to raise there mage level. Nat and Ess prices will go up and that will cut into the profit you make whenever you alch bows. If it goes up that you will lose money... Jagex screwed Alchers over

If you mine your own ess, craft your own nats, cut your own jews, craft your own bowstrings....

 

 

 

....

 

 

 

drumroll

 

 

 

....

 

 

 

 

 

You actually still make the same profit.

 

 

 

It's just the people that buy skills that are affected if the prices go up.

At least mages will now find a use for combat spells. The update raised the price of magic...kinda sucks but it's been worse.

There might not be much difference, think about it....

 

 

 

Law crafters stop because of expense.

 

More supply than demand.

 

Prices of pure essence drop.

 

Law crafters start up again.

 

Prices will stay the same because nobody knows how many people do and do not craft.

I wonder why jagex made it so pure was completely unminable from f2p... a level 50-60 minimum would have accomplished the same thing, and likely drawn less fire.

 

 

 

Although as a previous member... I no longer have bank room to deposit the non-pure stuff, which is like, bleh.

 

 

 

It's nice that they are trying at least...

Doesn't the majority of rune essence come from f2p anyway? I don't know too many members who spend their time mining rune essence...

lol some of you people amaze me.....even if the essence go to 100 gp each you are making at least 3 times your investment and thats if natures laws and deaths even stay at 300 each......

now THATS a way to lure people to members! :shock:

 

 

 

At least it will deter the guys that macro, because they don't want pay ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã3.20/$5 a month.

No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

100ea is quite good money as I can mine rune ess at the wizard guild, it would be very fast and I could be making 5k every 5 mins. Did they reduce the speed you could mine pure rune essence as you need over 30 mining? Man I hate these autoers.
