What if lootshare would automatically put the item on the GE for medium price. So for example you're in a CC doing bandos and you get tassets. Instead of receiving the item it's places on the GE. Once sold the coins are store at the GE and automatically split between the members of the CC After your trip to whatever boss you and your group have gone to you return to the GE and receive your split from the trip. This would only be for major drops with a certain GE value.

We should have coinshare option, except it instantly sells for the highest g.e. price and splits coins between players.... for people saying "this isn't fair because the item might be worth a little more, that difference is going to be less than 5%, and if the item is crashed,(which it shouldn't because its a boss item, but if it does) then theres no way your gonna be able to get what you wanted for it anyways...

Basically if the item was sold in g.e. instantly to highest bidder would be best option!

If your afraid of a 50m item being sold for 20m, then put in an offer for 48m or something like that to cover your ass... that way even if you item would buy at that, your getting best of both worlds.

Hello, as someone who just returned to RS after long years of absence and PvM'ed ALOT before EoC...

Heres my opinion, regarding Lootshare:

If Jagex is clearly trying to implement RAIDS in OSRS, then Lootshare will end up being needed to split those big splits, so i clearly do believe that at the moment, every team in OSRS is pretty much a FFA team that goes bossing.

The truth is, everyone has their preferences (from solo/duo/trio/team etc) on their bosses, and everyone wants to get a chance of fighting the high leveled bosses.

Lootshare will end up being needed, and LSPoints will too. Why ?
Simply for the fact that people are temperamental, and if the the drop chance is based 100/N (Where N = number of members on a team) then the system will end up as a flaw on the long run. Simply for the fact that one team member will always have the same chance to receive another drop even if he already got one.

Which at the pov of the player that got the drop, is fair.
But at the pov of the rest of the team, its unfair.

So at the end of the day, Lootshare will pass and Coinshare will return to the game.
If lootshare returns without LSP's, then there's no point of running LS since it will be pretty much of a FFA team. (the only difference is that you cant lie on what drop ended up on the floor).

Sugestions as everyone as already said:

1) X LSP's to X bosses. (avoiding LSP farming).

2) Coinshare applied directly to the G.E (item goes to the G.E, sold at medium price).
2.1) Money doesn't actually dissapear from the game, its just 1 player 50m divided by 5 players which is 10m. 10m x 5 = 50m.

3) Damage count due to crashing (it was like that in the past, strongest team wins, seems fair to me.)

That's all.

Seems like they don't get what their own players want.

Loot share:

-The whole concept is to attempt to solve scamming issues- don't offer it unless this is what it will do.
-People want the damaged to be pooled-this sorts idiots trying to crash others for the heck of it. Poll lootshare with the damage being pooled BUT add ls worlds for those who want to solo.

Instant share:

From what I read, they need lootshare in place to even consider Instant share (correct me if I'm wrong) which I believe is what everyone wants. if they mentioned the fact that instant share would be introduced after lootshare then this would more likely pass a poll.

My view on this:

This would help spread loot around equally for the clan members, so I don't mind it. It does not however make me feel like our members are safe from scamming/crashing.
I personally just want instant share. I would love to see this mentioned/polled and I believe I am not the only one, from what I've read.

Either way, good luck.

Coinshare based on highest current highest ge bid please and damage done by cc as a collective so coinshare worlds would be needed.

The idea of making it so a solo max player could crash an entire cc is ridiculous.

Lol, Because the reverse is a better option? Try massing another maxed player, or train your stats to offset the crash then. Why should stats give way to how many you have in the CC. LOL.
