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.

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 a


Sorry, couldn't quote entire post. Anyway, the problem with the EP system is that it creates MONEY out of thin air, which in turn devalues money in general. So yes, the AGS might rise to 130M, but 130M would then essentially be the same then as 55M is now. Same goes for supplies.


Not if those items turned into something else. such as corrupt tokens.

Corrupt tokens can be dropped instead of cash to prevent inflation of cash.

Corrupt tokens can then be used to buy pvp armors/weapons from mandrith for a reasonable price.

Each target you kill will most likely convert the armor/items they hadd into corrupt tokens. Which then will be used to buy a degradable item.

Thus, creating a super epic money sink.

It dont get better then that. Its just up to jagex to implement it now.

SO, you like my idea of corrupt tokens. Don't get it twisted tho son. You should have to pay a price for your target to get assigned also. This would place value on these tokens, making it so that anyone any level can eventually get a super rare item. People be like WOWOWOWOOWOW XD SOooo Fun. The concept has to be this way...

Maybe the more you risk, such as red, green or blue skull. The different color charms you get, and each being different vaules. Also add some randomness to it "luck" is a big part of R.S. So the amount you get of red blue or green would be random to each kill.

No to EP, the demise of runescape when we got those awful drops for koing someone risking claws. EP just no.

There are other ways to add profitable incentive just without EP please.

And why do we have so many pvp worlds, seriously scrap them first to condense the pking community.

What morons voted them thorugh anyway, idk.

As soon as you guys understand this game isn't what it was 3-6 years ago then you'll finally do the right updates. There shouldn't even be a discussion about how many worlds to do it on. You should realize by yourself you should do it on 1 world only so it becomes active. Also why wouldn't you add bonus loot? Do you know how expensive Supplies/Runes are... Killing Black * hide raggers for no reason is a HUGE waste of supplies and pointless. You might as well get something from it while you're doing it.

we also need to rid of pvp worlds for bounty hunter and the actual wilderness to thrive, there really is no point in pvp worlds as it does not logicially fit in with the wilderness concept? i don't understand how that actually passed vote but it did, mabye you should put another poll up or something along them lines to rid of pvp worlds, it wont help splitting the gameplays of pking, it must be active for one main agenda and that is bounty hunter on all worlds and not just one, and if it is to just be one world, then add the crater like before, same penaltys, same target system

if the system were to be implemented onto every world, it would be nearly impossible to be safe in the wilderness. But, hey, isn't that the point of the wilderness?

Ugh, this would be a complete disaster. There has been enough tension created over the years between skillers and pkers. Please do not make it even worse.

If we offer points that can be exchanged for resources such as sharks, herbs or potions etc. we devalue those items for the people that gather or create them and, in turn, devalue the stats they may have spent months training in order to do so.

I think this is the best thing I have ever seen a Jmod say in my 7 years of gameplay. Now if only you could make the RS3 developers understand that devaluing years of work is a bad idea....
