Please Jagex, stop selling exp: the game loses its meaning if you can just skip past all of the grinding with such excessive amounts of exp handouts. If the game was meant to be fun to play, the players would want to play it, rather than pay to skip it.

Please just remove Treasure Hunter altogether and focus on making the game fun again, designing it so that players want to play the game.


No support.

Just ignore it if you don't like it.

I mean you been at this since sof yet they ignore you. For obvious reasons too

So how much longer will it take for you to just deal with it?

The difference is it's buying the "chance" at experience, not a guarantee of up to 1.7m experience (calculated at 99 in a skill with bonus experience, the latter of which is potentially possible with the stars gained from keys).

I'd personally prefer that Jagex pulled lamps off of TH altogether and only awarded stars, but I know that's just a pipe dream.

This is now directly buying XP. Guaranteed lamps with a purchase. Jagex 2019 New Year Resolution... MTX our customers until RS3 SERVER SHUTDOWN PARTY!
The RS3 Community is treated like :@ RUBBISH :@ due to constant TH promotions.

Don't buy keys on Treasure Hunter, if you do Jagex will only make more TH promotions :(

Considering how often you get lamps though from th, it might as well be a "guarantee".

Yea, you got a point there, Draco. However, there is also a chance you'd get junk you don't want, too. A promo like this guarantees you'll get lamps and not just any lamps, either.

@Jagex
Unlike some of the other posters here I've given up on the competitive side of RS well before Squeal of Fortune was conceived. Casual players like me stand no chance against hardcore xp grinders who can dedicate vast amounts of time to gaming alone. Guaranteed lamp purchases like this just add more dirt atop the grave of RS's competitive scene. Really, I'm just playing the game for fun and to satisfy my own sense of accomplishment (even if that means partaking in Treasure Hunter).

However, I have never been nor ever will be a key buyer. Microtransactions like these appeal to a demographic that wreck MMOs for the rest of us. Nobody wants to play against whales with deep pockets who can outspend potential competitors. This is bad for the game's image and a huge stumbling block for player retention and recruitment. This also feeds gambling addictions, which makes TH predatory when advertised in this manner. You guys should avoid doing promotions like this in the future.

Thankfully, you guys haven't taken to selling items with top tier stats via Treasure Hunter or these promo packages. Mark my words, the day you do so will be the day RS will begin to wither until it dies and your company will perish with it. Please do not go down this path and consider more ethical moneymaking methods.

Sorry you just need to adapt to the mentality of modern causal gamers. XP and levels are not longer the ultimate measurement of progression. True causal gamers don't spend 10 years to get a couple of skills to level 99. That's why we have other non-xp specific Achievements as well as path of progressions like MQC. TH can't give them a MQC or max RuneScores no matter how many TH keys they buy.

On the other hand, Jagex is already selling items with top tier stats via Bond. Don't pretend you don't see them doing it for 7 years in RS3 and 6 years in OSRS already. :D

Exactly.

If you want that old timely style of rs gaming, id suggest giving osrs a go.

Ok lets cut the chase.

Jagex mod DM me on the price how much you want for to lvl up my fresh alt straight to max lvl. I know you guys are just drooling over money, so at least be honest and drop me a message.

Lets just call it maximum promo lamp or whatever.

I will be waiting. Cha ching bois. Remember, you are here for ever.
