    Raise Max Cash or Introduce Platinum Tokens

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 09:42 AM PDT

    Hear me out...

    With now over 30 items worth over max cash, I think it's time Jagex seriously considers the fact that 2.147b is just too small for this economy. For years people have been saying "yea but we have spirit shards", but that's only 53b. And yes, I say "only" because blue partyhat is now 35b+ and can easily be 40b in a week or 2, and everyone knows it could just as easily be bought up to 50b+ in the coming months. We are going to be in a situation where items are so expensive that they cant be directly bought through any available currency, not GP nor shards.

    We either need:

    1) Platinum tokens with value 1000 gp each to allow street trading to survive long term. OSRS already has this, just talk to the team for 10 minutes. It's a single item with a single means of exchanging (just using gp/tokens on any banker), this should be fairly easy

    2) Max cash raised so the economy can function as intended and stop this trend of being able to purchase less and less items on the Grand Exchange

    I see absolutely no downsides besides the typical "engine work" argument, or people just not wanting change. But I've been trying to raise this issue for the past year and it's only gotten worse, so I'm hoping other people are starting to see why this is important.

    We need max cash+ trades access on G.E

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 04:40 AM PDT

    The pump on rares is crazy right now,

    Once an item is push out of G.E it just raises exponentially as price manipulation is easily done with no transparency,

    Is there any way to introduce max cash+ trades on g.e? Is Jagex working on something?

    Look at Black Santa hat, it's almost 10b?

    Opinion: An option to trade items on GE over max cash will be a MUST, soon.

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 06:30 AM PDT

    Gold pieces are getting inflated a lot. Rares were a big problem for years now, but Jagex seemingly didn't care. Rares got their own market, which is not healthy at all, but it's working... In a way, I guess.

    But this will become a bigger problem than ever in a year or so. Do you remember when Telos got released? SoS were over max cash for long months. You couldn't get the highest tier weapon for max cash through the GE for months. Of course, prices settle after a time, but tier gaps will (usually) be straight upgrades. T90 prices settled long ago. T92 prices seem to settle around 1Bil border. Spec weapons are more costly, like Eldritch or ZGS, while others are under 1B (SoS, dual praesul, dual blightbound, etc).

    We can clearly see that a mere 2 tier upgrade (from t90 to t92) costs 7-12 times more in this case. Of course, when new tier will be released (most likely t95), this cost difference will most likely not be this drastic, but if they will cost only 2-3 times more than the current top tier weapon average, they will be well over max cash. And it won't be just for a few months, for one specific weapon, like it was for SoS.
    Imagine what would happen, if they released a t95 halberd range melee weapon. I can easily see it to go for over 4-5Bil at start, maybe even more, and don't settle under max cash for a long long time.

    While most people are worried about the manipulations, thats been ongoing for long years now, I'm personally more worried that the game's natural progression will be halted because of this max cash barrier. In my opinion, an automated system like the GE to trade over max cash will be a necessity soon.

    Of course this calculates in the following trend:

    • There will be better and better moneymakers as we further progress into the game.
    • There will be no, or just very little amount of good, meaningful gold sinks in the game.
    • We will get a completely new tier of equipment, which is hard to get, and tradeable in its complete state.

    TL/DR: If a new tier of equipment (weaponry) will be released into the game, they will most likely go well over max cash for much longer than SoS did. Changing the GE to be able to process trades over max cash will be a necessity soon.

    (These are just my opinion. Do not take any of this information for granted. A well made money sink update, or weapons, which you can only trade in parts, and can't trade the complete weapon, etc could completely overwrite what I wrote here.

    What do you think? Should Jagex push an update like this soon, or it's good how it is right now?

    Now that we have actual content that interacts with portables, maybe make them non-mtx exclusive?

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 11:50 AM PDT

    As of tomorrow (August 18) we will have alchemical hydrix pocket item that futher buffs portables. Now that Jagex is spending further dev time on items that interact with portables I think that it's about time that they be obtainable through gameplay.

    https://runescape.wiki/w/Brooch_of_the_Gods

    Pros:

    Ironmen could use their own portables

    Higher supply, less reliant on w84 lag-fest

    Potential to add a use to useless invention components

    Cons:

    Not yellow text black background.

    Found this gem from Soul Wars in Feb 2009 on an old drive

    The amount of rare price manipulation is obscene.

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 08:22 AM PDT

    You can't tell true price reports from fake ones because there are so many liers. Nothing stops them from keep reporting lied price trades. You can't tell if trade was legitamate. just a small screenshot is no evidence, it mightaswell happened between trader and his alt, maybe the trade didn't happen at all as most screenshots are just a picture of trade window, you don't know if it was accepted or not. Problem is, when things get over max GE price, there is no stopping the manipulation at that point. Santa hat was just 2.1b few days ago. Now that it went over the GE, people are already """reporting""" sales of 2.4b and above. Seriously.. Like 300m rise in price in few days is unrealistic. They succeed because they make so many "confirmed trade" reports and if these are the only price reports you see, naturally you think this is was the street price is now. Then everyone who has 1 doesn't want to sell lower anymore and those who do want to buy one, Either have to buy at manipulated price, or not at all.

    Jagex said we would get an analysis & raw data of the several gp/item dupes that happened over the past 6 months. When are we going to get that?

    Can we get a chat notification when a clan member dies?

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 05:22 AM PDT

    It would be pretty funny to get a message when a clan member dies. I want to give my condolences and laugh with everyone.

    Did friend chats have this message at one point?

    Allow an on/off setting so the people that don't care can turn it off. Most of my clan says they would enjoy this.

    Throwback To 2015: Construction Aquarium & And The Mad Rush at LRC for Golden Fish Eggs

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 01:08 AM PDT

    As someone who never unlocked Priff untill today I want to say. WOW.

    Posted: 17 Aug 2020 02:26 PM PDT

    I just finished plague's end. Wayyyy too late because I couldn't be bother doing the quests, grinding skills I don't really like but I want to say this is amazing.

    Walking around in Priff for the first time is giving me a better feeling than any drop I have ever gotten from a boss.

    So everyone who didn't do this quest yet like me, do it. Trust me it's so worth it.

    That's all, sorry that this is probably a boring post for everyone who did this years ago!

    A while ago the hyphen in "Third-age" was removed to make it easier to search but the same was not done for "Second-age." Please remove the hyphen in Second-age for consistency and for ease of access when searching.
