Nah the thing wrong here imo is you wanting mems items w/o having to pay.
Hey?!?! :O

We can't use the bankable lamps until being a member again...

Thus it only encourages people to become a member ; destroying them makes Treasure Hunter a waste of time for F2P. ;)

...I hate to break it to you, but that is the ENTIRE POINT.

The whole point of "Can only do this as a member" things is that they are fully intended, designed, and built around pissing you off until you dish out the money.

So sadly, this is not going to change. You only have three real options here. Continue trying to play with these lamp based inventory cloggers, submit and buy membership, or destroy them.

Also, yes, see above for another reason why you can't bank them.

In my opinion, the proper solution here would be to allow f2p players to use large/huge lamps and get experience as if they were medium... or just remove large/huge lamps from f2p TH to begin with.

I don't think you should be able to store lamps anywhere (bank / pouch / etc.) because:
1. You've never been able to store them
2. The ability to store them would encourage hoarding until you have enough to reach 99

I like that you're sort of forced to use lamps quickly, because that way you don't have to feel bad about not getting as much exp as you potentially could have if you had waited longer.


Also, why are you waiting on NXT? The Java client works as well as it always has. So in your situation I'd work and buy a bond for temporary membership to use up the lamps (and hopefully earn enough money to buy your next bond once you feel like staying a member - since earning money in p2p is easier than f2p).

I TOTALLY AGREE - JAGEX PLEASE MAKE IT SO WE CAN BANK ANY OF OUR XP LAMPS-
I CAN NOT DO ANY DUNGEANEERING UNTIL I BANK MY LAMPS

Support!

Currently I am f2p and I dont think I will ever be in RS3, but who knows (maybe they will make some really good changes to the game in future).
Also it is not possible to play fist of guthix minigame while they r in inventory.
They should allow to bank xp lamps or at least use them in F2P.

Why should lamps be bankable if you dont play rs3? :@

Also, why do you need them while playing fog? What benefit would that give you?

No support, people would abuse this to get more exp out of the lamps.

^^^^^

I'm following with Black Wing.
- They would wait until they achieve 98 to get a lot of experience from them.
- New players would abuse this by waiting to get this skill as high as possible to gain much more experience out of it. Currently hunting the new halo…

I thought the whole point of using lamps is to get past the grindy lower levels that have much slower xp rate training methods? Sure, I wouldn't really want to use it under level 30/40 since those levels are fast and you can get a lot of xp from quests, but I'm sure as hell not going to wait until level 98 before using my lamps. I'd rather get less xp per lamp than to grind through some slower/more tedious training method to get the skill to 98.

Examples:
1) Firemaking, I'd rather skip straight to higher level logs than burn money on burning normal logs till level 15. Pretty crazy how normal logs are more than twice the price yew logs but only give 1/5 of the xp.
2) Mining, I'd like to skip past granites and go to concentrated sandstones, no need to deal with desert heat and more afk.
3) Agility, just save me form the hell that is lower level agility training, get me to a high enough level to make shf worth using. °l||l° Modest Skillers T7 Citadel | Skilling clan recruiting players. °l||l°
