Wing, you stated what the issue is: the cost of supplies.

I understand why food supply drops would do more harm then good, but potions? As far as I know, nobody makes potions for money. (correct me if I'm wrong) They are very heavily merched by bots (I assume they're bots considering they're the same people always standing in the same spot all the time) though.

As such, would it not be beneficial for target kills to have a chance at dropping a small amount of noted potions? This would help both pvmers (cheaper potion costs due to increased supply) and pkers (less potions having to be brought).

There are a lot of people that make potions for money LOL.. Also you assume wrong. Supply drops mess with other parts of the game too much, pvp armor/weps as drops wouldn't devalue anything since they are new.

Cosmetic rewards? Are you kidding me jagex?

We arn't here to play freaking dress up with your runescape characters... this is just an easy way out just like your "new skill" which was also a COMPLETE joke

This garbage proposal upsets me and I'm not even a PKer

Would Jagex care to debate with me HOW adding the EP system will devalue our economy?


Currently, our economy is in a rust. The best items in-game are worth close to nothing. For example, a whip is valued at 1.1m-1.2m. The almighty armadyl godsword is at an ever low peak of 50-55m. Bandos and zamorak godswords are about 3-5m.

Do you really think that these prices give PvMers an incentive to kill them? The current cost of super restores is 17kea a pop. And brews are an outstanding 10kea. Not taking into account the prices for super sets, bolts, bones to peaches and much more, it roughly takes 400k an inventory to do one DUO armadyl trip.

The fact that I have 99 range + an extra 2m exp over 99(that I got doing armadyl GWD) and STILL have not received an armadyl hilt is completly absurd. Do you know how much money I have spent on supplies? The cost of supplies IS FAR TO HIGH for the prices of ARMOUR. Even if i received a hilt drop, I would basically break even for the cost of supplies I have used. Now what would be the point of that...?

Now say you added in EP system.
People would stop doing as much PvM which would shorten the supply, and increase the value of armours. NOW, people who enjoy PVM will be getting splits THEY DESERVE (for example armadyl godsword might rise to 130m) because there are more pkers WANTING these items and LESS PVMERS supplying it to them.

The cost of supplies, such as sharks, brews, restores value will be maintained or even increase due to the insane amount of demand needed from pkers. Which means now the skillers are even making more money.

EP SYSTEM BENEFITS not only PvPers , but also skillers+PVMers....... YOU MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY!!!!!!! What are you not understanding? Not to mention you'll increase the amount of people online at any given time from 15-20k to probably 35-40k with a massive amount of people coming back for this update.

@My Asshair = 6 posts above

I COULDNT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER MY FRIEND.

old school runescape plauers are ONLY ONLY ONLY ONLY and ONLY interested in the PLAYER VS PLAYER aspect of the game. = PKING = PLAYER KILLING.


NO OLD SCHOOL PLAYER GOES WOOD CUTTING BECAUSE ITS REALLY FUN CHOPPING MAPLE LOGS AND MAKING 100K AT THE END OF THE DAY......


ADD EP SYSTEM AND ADD EXTRA LOOTS / INCENTIVES / STATUETTES / VESTA / DRAGON FULL HELM / STATIUS DROPS


old school runescape = PKING = enough said

I'd like Jagex to actually develop content with new game mechanics rather than add some cosmetic garbage and call it bounty hunter

This devblog actually makes me laugh... it's almost as bad as the sad ass proposal for their "new skill"

Just add an EP system, and the higher your risk the faster your EP goes up

When you kill your target, EP is used (Ep is not used on players who are not your target)

The target that you killed (assuming you had EP) could drop new items, tokens, etc. which can be later voted on

This kills two birds with one stone:
1)More people risking in the wildy (To get fast EP)
2)Actual intensive to kill the target other than some bogus cosmetic garbage

And the best thing is the additional drops (weather it be PvP only gear, tokens, new items, cash... or whatever) can be voted on so everyone is happy.

Most pures risk more in food than they do in actual gear, and even a lot of mains risk garbage like full rune which is not even worth the time. There has to be added incentive. If you are able to come out with a whole list of items to release for elite clues and new wildy boss monsters I'm sure you could add some new items to the Bounty Hunter "drop table"
