IMO no skill "needs" a GE. In fact, I wish there were no trade methods at all in the game. If you need something go get it. Make it, farm it, kill stuff until it drops etc. This Artisian skill has the potential to get players involved is aspects of the game they probably have never seen before or done. I am sure the original thought process in creating RS was not "lets make a game where people will buy tons of materials and stand in a bank until they get 99". If that were the case why not just make a giant ge with bankers in it and delete the rest of the game world, as alot of the players have never seen it anyway much less interacted with it.
this is an MMO. Trading is huge facet in MMOs. I'm not here to play a single player rpg like skyrim where I go and farm all my own stuff.
You do realize how much materials you are asking people to farm on their own right?
you want me to go waste half my life and go mine 100k coal just so I can level up smithing on my own? If this game was forced to be ironman mode like you say, there might be a couple hundred players max. I'm glad you aren't making calls for this game.
