    @ killer thanks for the read. See if you can get your hands on rock tails or brews to flip.
    @ dynamite n I'm class at the moment. Play and test with the highest price and lowest price you can get for 1 rock tail and start from there.

    I said if, I didn't say completely quit.
    If you actually look at the forums on rs, you would understand how big of a deal this update is to those who are against it.
    How about I give you a comparison to this update with the bot nuke about a year ago.
    Bot nuke a year ago: most major bots down or gone for good. Legit players came back to the game, they legit played at common bot spots. Gold steadily went up. Prices of items sky rocketed
    EOC in 2 weeks: unsure If bots will be down. Legit players are NOT happy with this update. So many claim to quit/go on leave status. No demand for gold = prices go down. So many items are crashing. Rares have a unstable market.. Gradually going down cause of the new Solomon update and panic sellers.

    there just don't know a good thing when its infront of them! just look at say sof..
    no one liked it at first but now I think everyone does.
    and if you do still hate it your sir are an idoit. (it helps bring money into the game, maype the fact it makes the game easier you dislike but without the extra money the game would suck and wouldn't be worth playing. Also who hates fr33 st00f? :P)

    You're entitled to your opinion, but I would rather have the game the way it is rather than having the eoc. I dont see how calling people idiots helps.
    Beta was terrible, I did not like it.
    Eoc makes the game easier, especially for power training. The instances they have for the eoc look terrible to me. This thread has been viewed so many times. The point of this thread was to discuss items, make money, and leave you the decision to keep playing or quit. The "extra money" may come into the game, but who gets it? It goes to those who scam, rwt, goldfarmers, and so on. It does not go to those who legit
    Back to your point where the game gets easier, this means items are being devalued badly, that's actually a loss of money to those who can't sell their items in time.

    valid point but a majority of people who say they are going to quit are annoying me.
    yes you may dislike eoc and I can see why you dislike it but the game needs to adapt if it want's to be the best in the market.
    however I would personally like to have seen eoc being rs3 and keeping rs2 active at the same time.

    Default EOC merch

    Hey, I'm not realy good at merches, but I heard that ragefires / arcane spirit shields would go up in the EOC.
    So I bought 3 ragefires for 9m and selling them for 9.4m was that a good choice?
    Also I'm planning on buying an arcane for 70m ish- and merch til EOC hoping that it will rise. thanks for replying =]


    Goodluck to all merching !

    So heres whats up. I got Karil, Verac (ALready has Verac), Dharok, and Master Wand (ALready had that too). So should I keep the Verac and Dharok or sell one of them when they rise in price?

    If the demand for them is exceptional, (with everyone rushing to buy them), the price should rise a lot over the next few days. However, they will most likely fall a bit closer to the release of EOC as demand goes down.

    Once EOC releases, I predict that they will go down a fair bit as everyone starts to do Barrows more often. With combat being a lot easier, and barrows getting buffed, a lot of people are going to do the minigame and thus increase the amount of items in the game.

    That makes sense. Well I got my investments and all my armor bought. Looks like I'm just going to bunker down till all this EoC panic dies down.
    EDIT: If Barrows armours are so much better in the Beta, I'd expect Jagex to nerf the rates for obtaining them from Barrows.

    Man, If I got my hands on ragefires, I would be selling them for 1-2m over their market price, because people are so desperate for them on the forums. Or better yet hold them till the EOC and then sell. Good luck with the arcane, I havent had the chance to snipe one from the GE, being hoarded badly :/

    Thanks for the response, I have 3 ragefires right now in my bank to sell when EOC comes. I couldn't get the arcane as people already sold them all.
    What else could I merch ? As some things are probably going down already.

    Flip claws if you can. Bought 10 from a guy on the forums for 4m each and then sold for 5.2m each.

    He might actually be able sell some if he didn't state he had so many. For me that would make me consider looking for someone else to buy from first.

    Rings of recoil, sapphire rings and maybe sapphires because ring of recoil now gives hp exp they should be used a lot for raising hp and not combat lvl. Ice barrage now only uses 2 bloods and 5 waters and ice burst uses 2 deaths and 4 waters so their should be alot of people using deaths and bloods.


    http://services.runescape.com/m=foru...312,0,63935928
    Are Rings of Recoil meant to give Constitution XP?

    This is probably to do with the way we changed how XP works (now being granted on death instead of on hit). So, not an intentional change, but one we are happy to leave in.





    Why were blood/death runes removed from higher levelled spells, is this so more players can afford to cast the spells, making Magic a more open option to people?

    Magic was too expensive to cast. All offensive spells had their rune costs reduced to make magic less expensive to train. Additionally the basic Air spells now only cost Air runes to cast, so are free to use when wielding an Air Staff.

    Those runes are actually crashing. Im not sure about adding them or stating about how they'll be in more demand, but Im def adding the ring of recoil to the list of rising items.
    Thanks a bunch for the nice find Ill credit you on the OP

    So do you think that bloods/deaths will drop? I have 100k of each because I bought them over a month ago thinking that they would go up. I was going to sell them now because I thought they were going to lower because of the EOC. Do you suggest I keep them for now though, hoping they'll go up? ;o

    The only reason They are dropping now is because goldfarmers are dumping millions of deaths and bloods onto the market.

    Or another option could be that new spells may be added to the spellbooks in the EOC. As of right now, I would only flip deaths/bloods, not really hold as an investment for a while at the moment.

    Ill consider adding deaths/bloods in the coming week/end of next week. If they become stable but go to their lowest, go for em and pick em. As for now, sell/flip them.

    I can't believe how the EOC is affecting runescape : (.
    Everything will change, prices, items, community, playing ...
