It seems like 90% of the items on the grand exchange are worth drastically less than the guide price, or worth astronomically more than the guide price.

Every time I go to sell something I have to just make a guess how many times I'll need to press -20% in order to reach the items actual invisible value.

and every time I buy something I need to increase to 3 or 4x the guide price in order to purchase it within a timely manner.

I think it's fair to say that the guide should actually reflect the true value of items being traded.
This could probably work by having them updated more often, or increasing the cap by how much the guide price can rise or fall with each update.

gonna love seeing merchers cry about this suggestion because it would hurt their ability to exploit the G.E for free money

guide price is never going to be perfect, even on osrs the wiki has a live update for the ge prices.
https://prices.runescape.wiki/osrs/
and even though its literally live. its not always accurate either. but its very good for merching, knowing true prices helps merching a lot. and i would love a live price for rs3. i made a fortune on osrs using live price.

if they were to do anything with ge priced. a live price would be ideal and best overall, no need for updating once a day or with a certain amount of items traded etc.

(and nope merchers would love it) ;)
