Yes, and not many people will chop them because willows are faster experience.

They finally got it right.

Because everyone chops willows? That's all I can think of.

Supply and demand. People want oaks because it is the cheepest xp for construction. However, most people don't cut down oaks because they give less xp then willows.

Yea. Those are all true. I'll try selling oaks....

if you want to lvl construction, there's no way around it: you WILL be using oak (unless you want to uselessly waste a ton of cash or be totally inefficient). In terms of reasoning you were looking at the supply, the answer is in the demand for this case

you answered your own question a little bit :)

 

 

 

more people cut willows since there the fastest wc exp in the game

 

 

 

so their price is low

 

 

 

and people need oak for construction

Computers will never be above humans because we made them.

Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak

Maybe supply and demand will rebalance over time, but the previous chain evolved around fletching, with Oaks worth even less than ordinary logs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I did a K of Oaks in the original construction race, don't think they command the same prices now as they did during the early days.
