You lost me at "analyzing the entire concept of this skill, one thing becomes very clear: Jagex have sold out"

But I kept reading anyway
"So it looks like the plan is to add a crazy gp/xp gimmick to upkeep until 200m to every skill that they will release ever since invention, because they need to create huge money sinks"
What money sinks? How is this skill a money sink? GP is going to other players.

I do agree with you the RNG aspect sucks, but I feel it's primarily for people in your situation. As someone who is just going for 120, I really like what they did with the skill so far. Someone else said it before me:

Been years since Invention came out, so you've had years to prep for the new skill. There was always a risk that the new skill would cost money, so I don't think it is unfair that those 5.4bers who were sensible enough to make bank in-case the new skill required it have an advantage - nothing was stopping you grinding out GP too.

Having said that, you're a legend of the game mate, in the same bracket as people like Telmomarques, Timlahaye, Aasiwat etc. So I wouldn't worry too much if you don't make top page this time around.

Agree Drum, but you're wrong about the skill being a moneysink.

Gold is just exchanging hands, it's not going anywhere. At most the skill is a very minor item sink. The price crashes that occurred just after arch launch should revert eventually, except for cases where arch has directly made some items better/worse due to relic powers ofcourse.
