Thing is BH makes pking profitable, least if your successful (duh). "When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself... first, as a dark demon. As a demon, it uses its power to rain death upon the land, and then it dies. However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns, this time, as a great hero"

No..normally low lvls eat more I supplies then the 5k str ammy and dds pays for. "When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself... first, as a dark demon.

Is that not the case for pking in general?

This

And the people who benefit from BH the most are the abusers who gather up as a clan at corp cave entrance or something easily accessable risking bones, wait to get each other as targets to farm up emblems.

Simply an incentive to level up. It's the same with PvM, haven't seen a lv 40 farm GWD.

OR... haven't seen a lv 40 **er chop yews or magics..**** 40 miner mine runite..**** 40 fisher fish sharks... point gone across by now hopefully.

Not really comparable.high lvl PvP is boring as hell and your chance of success does not grow a you level, it drops. It be like if gwds was harder for a lvl 126 then 110!

Indeed.

Once, on other runescape, I decided to kill the kalphite queen. Sumona gave it as a challenge and I was feeling frivolous. Off I toddled to the GE, buying super restores and saradomin brews and rocktails. Overkill, perhaps, but I was like level 100 and I had never PvMed before.

So I got to the Kalphite Queen, and set about her. I managed to kill the first form and get about a third of the way through the second stage, and then my supplies ran out. So I hopped out and got some more. I finally killed her, at my expense of what must have been like 200k+, and as a drop, if I recall correctly, received some mithril arrows.

The moral of the story: because I had neither the gear nor stats to take large, quick hits, I had to spend a lot more on supplies and thus it can be concluded that I simply wasn't high enough level for that to be an efficient way to make money. Had I been higher level, I could have got the kill using a lot less supplies, in which case it may well have been. Sailing

Actually, I will also add another moral to that story (two morals! you look like ants from up here): just because I have stacked all the odds against my favour, does not oblige Jagex to make said method more profitable to suit me. Sailing

Oh, it indeed is more unlikely to get a sigil from corp or a hilt from GWD than it is to get a granite maul from a gargoyle, which is again more unlikely than to get a limp*urt root from a hobgoblin.

Level and rewards' value go exponentially up, while the chance to get the good stuff decreases in a rather linear fashion.

You can dismiss one person's opinion as subjective, but if you asked a larger audience and found that the majority agreed with an opinion it's not subjective anymore. I think you'd find a lot more people would agree that PvP is much more fun at lower levels.
