Would it be reasonable to asume that all normal long term players will hold on to their gold party hat at these prices. And that many of the people who do sell it have the intention to buy it back. I dont see a reason for them to sell it unless as a flip with the intention to buy it back. And jagex promised the item would be worth a lot of coins eventually (false advertising lol?).

So that most of the suply comes from alts which are literally farming the hat. And that most of the farmers will have farmed the hat asap in the first few days because then the price would be the highest? (jagex botched the release with this aspect imo though i guess there is little you can do about it).

How much would a farmer spend on the hat. People get it on their alts that are members already and then its basicly 30m + at least 15 hours of afk farming. They could farm something else as well in those 15 hours though so i guess anything below 100m would not be worth it. This would be a higher price for those who have to buy membership as well.
I dont know how fast it is to get the hat with an account with zero stats. Would that be the same 15 hours or would it be much longer due to lower stats,or would it even be impossible due to certain requierements?

It seems stable for now at 400m,i still think it will bottom out around 200m. And after that it will be a very very very slow rise upwards.



Getting the hat on an account with no stats is awful. People forget that afk methods are mostly earned in this game.

I'd imagine the event will be heavily front loaded in terms of phat numbers, everyone who is interested in grinding for one is likely already doing it or finished. They'll still trickle in over the event time but all the srs players got to work on shard accumulation asap, and like Mgamer said ^, getting one on a new alt is awful.

Also there's the whole thing about market psychology, if majority of participants think one thing is going to happen it usually won't (in this case, price crashing super hard from here so everyone can stack a ton of gold phats for super cheap)

seems like the floor is being established at ~400M, maybe yak trak shard tanks it for a little bit but I'll be a buyer if it does

No, it's not. Only problem might be getting shard from ''support'' skills, everything else is completely afk.


Priff elves are more or less AFK. Slayer too if you pick the right tasks. Silver's confirmed not to give them IIRC but can always just sit on the hefin post for ticks.

Those options are not available on fresh accounts.

I thnk you are right in that itl be loaded to the start of the event but we havent hit the first weekend yet. i consider myself to be active enough to obtain the hat over the coming weeks on most of my accounts but am yet to obtain a shard due to minimal playtime during the week. personally i think 400m isnt quite the floor yet but not far off but only time will tell.

Exactly. This is the problem with people. They sit in the max guild thinking of what lvl 90+, large quest line req method theyre going to afk next and forget what it's actually like as a new player.
You cant even get a decent slayer master without quests. Nor will it be afk to use an aggression pot becayse you'll die.

Far more common than we thought :P ?


No, most players with an IQ of over 12 knew there would be thousands brought into the game.

Request you change your statement from we thought to I thought.
