will the prices drop cuz of huntin? thats wat happend wen con came out. do u guys think huntin will make prices drop?

No, it won't be a money sink.

they may for a few days as everyone is just concentrating on the new skill, but as it won't take that much money away from normal money circulations, the prices should return to about normal.

I'll disagree.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I dont really see HOW they can making hunting a monkey sink

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unless they make the new "items" purchaseable (high prices) then no, I don't beleive prices will drop

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hunting is a ways away too

I don't think the prices will be affected at all.

The prices went down when construction went out because people wanted to sell their stuff to buy more planks of anything else for their houses.

My sister just bought a bunch of dragon armor but sold it today because of the annoucnment of the skill. The prices have already droped :shock: .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the prices go down its because people want to have money to spend on the skill and won't concentrate on getting the best deals. It dosn't have to be a money sink.

It will be similar to when slayer was released; it didn't really affect prices.

 

 

 

Btw, your sis plays RS? :shock:

I don't think it'll be a money sink, but if it will, here we come cheap whip 'n Torags! \

I bet hunting doesn't even come out this month. Jagex will end up delaying it.

they will drop slightly i expect....sell if you want but it's also possible you gain good money from hunting and they rise :oops:

yea i recently sold some armor to buy a magic stone and some marble blocks for construction and now i have to time it just rite when i buy it back, buy it when it lowers but just b4 prices of stuff raise

I don't think the prices will be affected at all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ditto..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This thread is a waste of server space...

Construction is a big enough of a money sink. Why would we need another one? It will be an item producting skill, most likely, like it is IRL. IRL construction costs alot, but hunting costs only what you pay for equipment, and in some countries the permits. In ancient times and in some parts of the world today, tribes hunted animals for their meat and hides. That will probally be the case here. Heck, mabye at a certain level you can gut dragons and eat their meat for like a 24 heal? Probally won't happen, but you get where I'm going with this, right?

This thread is weird! What! It means prices will drop! Well it's not like they wud change it cause of new skill. What the hell Dont get what ya mean. It is not like a p hat will now cost 2gp.

ur post is a waste of thread waste.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

imo i think prices will only be lowered for like 2 days just because people need more or something

No, they wont drop...

Hardly. There's no way to know one way or the other. Smugness is not a subsitute for knowledge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But you have to acknowledge that draining cash from the Runescape economy has to be at least a secondary motivation of any new updates.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Construction proved that. There was no reason for the materials for Construction to be so ridiculously expensive. The only reason was to drain cash, plain and simple.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Too much gp in the Runescape economy is clearly a concern for Jagex. While there's no way to know one way or the other, I think it would be a safe assumption that there is going to be a significant gp requirement (resulting in that cash going out of game forever).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Believe me, I'm sure the good folks at Jagex have had plenty of time to figure out how to make this skill a cash sink. Maybe not quite as bad as Construction, but still a cash sink.

well i believe that this "Hunting" skill will not be money drainer. In fact i think it will be a great way of earning money! There was mentioned that there will be new items, and if they wikll be tradable they will cost much! Even if not tradable this skill will be not a money drainer. Some hunting equipment will cost a bit, but it will not be something very scpecial and extraordinary... I can't wait fo that skill!

Actually, some of the information here isn't quite right. Dragon Armour prices are not dropping, they are rising. Two weeks ago you could buy a D Chain for 15.9mil, now the lowest price even being offered to buy them at is 16mil.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know, because I am watching them carefully as I work my way up to one :P

well i actually think they will rise. I dont think ull have to buy ur equipment off npc's, i reckon ull have to make them urself. Hence steel bar and other ore prices will rise because people want the extra steel and whatnot to make the traps or spears or whatever we will be using.

This wont be "AS" bad as construction, but I think you will need

 

 

 

Alot of Time == Taking money out of RS

 

 

 

Your supplies: Make nets, cages, bait and so forthe.. prob not going to be cheap

 

 

 

Less buyers: more people skilling and less buy sellers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think that rares will not go up this that much till after years end...

Time will tell.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don't ask me how they'll manage it, but I'm guessing Jagex is hoping to suck a few more billion gp out of the RS economy through Hunting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This would be an interesting poll question for tip.it.

Dragon axe took on like a 400k drop... I'm hoping it drops another mil.. I still say it's worth the 1.5mil now then before the price should've stayed the same. Ah well I got off topic anyway yes as you can see some items are dropping. Although I really doubt this will effect rares...

I bet hunting doesn't even come out this month. Jagex will end up delaying it.

OMG, siggified.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's what I'm saying

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's a smart Santa helper there :3>
