TheEvilGizm0 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I believe the reason is oak used in construction? Yes, and not many people will chop them because willows are faster experience. They finally got it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker6 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Because everyone chops willows? That's all I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos_Reborn Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Yeah, those two are no doubt the main reasons. Visit my Runescape comedy website, based on in-game screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25leaf Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Yea. Those are all true. I'll try selling oaks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solidus_77 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 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 76th to reach 99 Construction on 6th of February 2007379th to reach 99 Runecrafting on 4th of November 2007 Finally the secrets of goal achieving are revealed!

Doomster Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
