Italian5kamikaze Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 well i put some thought into it and if there was no high alc the only gold you could get is through monster drops.Even the highest lvl monster doesnt drop much and think about it theres billions and billions of gp out there and almost all of that came from high alcing...i mean sure you can pick up small amounts of gp off the ground from monster drops selling things to the general store and doing barrows but that isnt very much. so what do you think runescape would be like with no high alcing...i think prices on armors rares and everything would be way lower although ppl would have way less money.So what do you think runescape would be like without high alc?

Rebdragon Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 If there wasn't High alching, maybe the economy wouldn't be about to blow up in our faces? (If you don't know what inflation is, don't bother replying to my post) [if you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.] Fullmetal Alchemist, you will be missed. A great ending to a great series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Hmm.... also, without high alch, people wouldn't be buying yew longs in large amounts. The yew market wouldn't have the demand it currently has. Nats wouldn't have as high a demand either, but still enough to fill the needs of those bones to peaches and snaring spells. Bow string and flax market wouldn't have as high a demand either. And you'd have a lot more general stores filling up quickly. Just my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian5kamikaze Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 wat do u mean only monster drops there are tons of ways wow ok let me break it down for you...sure you can have skills like wcing to cut yews to sell buuut without cash how would ppl pay you...

Ugh there are more ways then just monster drops. Some stores buy everything by the high alch price. people would use the bandit's general store in the wilderness That is one of some stores that buy at high alch. There would just be alot of stuff in those stores. So you can just sell you stuff there and still get the high alch price and plus it would go much faster. With out high alch, getting rich with that way would be harder but not obsulete (sp). It would be a different market but not a destroyed market. A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdb148 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 The price the stores buy at goes down as stocks go up. So you wouldn't be getting anywhere near the high alch price, because stores would still all be full of stuff like plates and bows. Check out this cool browser gladiator game!

Thaulsis Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Low Alch would become big? :lol: I think a high demand item such as raw material would take over currency in a trading aspect. However, items such as cannons would be a lot harder to obtain due to the need of cash to buy it. General Stores only buy ONE item at High Alch value when there is none in stock. It would take forever to sell an item one at a time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyco Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Nothing really. Everything would just be really cheap, well not cheap since no one really has a lot of money. Like lobs would be 25 each. Dragon Chain would be like 3m I don't know stuff like. (Prices are probably off, but just an example.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tewas Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 i would absolutely love that runescape. mercahnting obsolete (sp?), rares won't be skyrocketing, people who has skills will be rich as hell, because they coudl do what they want to. it would be heaven. pking will be profitable once again (i'm not pker). mage will be hard skill to obtain because alching so far is cheapest and easiest way to get mage exp. could we bring that back? :) 1500+ total 89 cmb; 1600+ total and under 93 cmb. 02/04/07 reached all skills 60+ under lvl 90 cmb. 07/19/07 reached all skills 70+ at lvl 93 cmb.Prayer is good for herbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ortiz9471 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Wait a second, the bandit store in the wild buys your stuff at high-alch price? Not just the first one, but every one?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bflitny1 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I don't even want to think about it!! How would you train magic, it would be more expensive than prayer, lol, not possible. Anyway, there's actually no point in thinking about it. Drops: Barrows: 60+ DK: 4... Dragon: 60+ Whips: 2...

Without Gp in the economy you cannot sell the Dragon drop. Same for merchanting. It's seems a minor detail, but it isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nielsdek Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 why isnt anyone talking about the mage lvls, high alching is one of the most used way to get mage up I was once at the airport with my friends in California, had to go "potty" really bad, and just pissed my pants in the middle of the terminal. (All the cool kids piss in their pants, right?)barrows loot: lost countdaga king loot: lost count :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzlar Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 You would see a item based economy such as the one that Diablo2 and D2X had where gold had no value and items were based apon the rarest and best items.
