Onyx bolts - WTH, man?

Featured Replies

Just one thing to say. As 99% of you already know, Jagex released a line of enchantable crossbow bolts today, as well as some more powerful crossbows. I just have one question though.

 

 

 

How many bolts can one gem make? Because unless it's something like 10k, does Jagex honestly believe that people will waste onyx, that gem that costs over 4m (300k tokkul), on making arrows?

 

 

 

C'mon!

My greatest ambition is to kill every member of the human race.

However I am a realist and therefore know that I probably wont be able to.

Well, you don't have to turn an onyx into bolt tips...

 

You can just buy them from the shop that sells Onyx.

 

The only useful thing about the onyx bolts though, is when enchanted they leech life from the monster/player you're fighting.

Will update when I feel like it.

And maybe even as a monster drop...

No longer playing Runescape, I caught the WoW bug.

Yeah okay whatever, I didn't know about some crazy bolt shop ...

 

 

 

Still. Hypothetically speaking, that would be pretty ridiculous.

they're expensive considering per shot from shop- but leeching life and hitting extra damage is good- plus being onyx theyll have a high normal max- i know some pkers will use them- only downside is if enchanted the pker doesnt get the drop- i think they need to either make enchanted ones tradable, or make it so they lose their charge when u die with them.

118+ combat

1730+ total

85 slayer

95 mage

94 range

its like 200k per bolt

 

 

 

only thing you would use them for is staking

Picture this, you are a ranger and a very good dueler, you stake a collection of rares against someone and they stake the equivilent.

 

 

 

I'm sure you can spare a few mil worth of bolts to leech their health, infact thats practically fool-proof, 99 range, Def and onyx bolts, rune xbow as the french would say fzw.

 

(for ze win)

you can buy 1 bolttip for 1500 at gem shop

 

and if you chisel a onyx you get 24 bolttips instead of the normal 12 u get you get from a gem

its like 200k per bolt

around 10-15k a shot from shop

there is a reason jagex made it that way, to affect the economy

its moronic...25k gp per shot ( 26k if u count in the bolt) which isnt all that special. I wouldnt say anything if the thing hit 30s or 40s ( considering the incredible speed of a rune x bow)-- but crystal hits harder than this. Again its moronic.

Lol and only for 1m+ stakes, because if they disappear on the ground your screwed.

I shall take my flock underneath my own wing, and kick them right the [bleep] out of the tree. If they were meant to fly, they won't break their necks on the concrete.
So, what is 1.111... equal to?

10/9.

 

Please don't continue.

I don't know about you guys, but I'd rather use Dragonstone-Tipped bolts.

 

 

 

Doesn't fire breath hit in the 40's?

That's the point he's trying to make.

when jagex brought on con they wer hoping that would take enough money out of the econimy now they brought out combat with it there hoping to drain our money because noobs complane about high prices if jagex seems like there trying noobs wopnt bug them and they can do better work

1.5k tokkul from the gem shop per bolt

 

 

 

If I did my math right (4 mill gp = 300k tokkul), that's 13.333 something per tokkul.

 

 

 

Given that, 13.33 gp = 1 tokkul.

 

 

 

At 1.5k tokkuls per onyx bolt, that is STILL 20k per bolt. If a dueler needs only 15-20 per duel, then ok. But still, these are for the serious of the serious.

That's the first thing i thought of whenever i looked at the new update....that is pure and utter pwnage if you ask me lol.

you can buy 1 bolttip for 1500 at gem shop

 

and if you chisel a onyx you get 24 bolttips instead of the normal 12 u get you get from a gem

 

 

 

I want to give a hand to whomever wasted almost 4 mill to find that out.

 

 

 

Thanks! Next time you want to find something out, consider just alching a d chain... They're almost low enough... :)
