Staking ruined?

[Skiller]

Agree or disagree.


I shamefully think it has done many players will quit and mabye a nice system about combat level giving a higher cap? :D

Working out: , along with many other players, use magic in the dueling arena. Like many other mages, the spell of choice is obviously Ice barrage which takes 2 blood runes and 4 death runes Per Cast! Lets do the math:

Blood runes: 450gp each X 2 = 900 gp

Death runes: 250gp each X 4 = 1,000 gp

900 + 1,000 = 1,900gp PER CAST

So tell listen to this: If it costs us 1,900gp for every spell we cast, if we even cast TWO spells we're allready 800gp over the 3,000 gp limit! So what is the point for us to use magic anymore?

I believe it should be:


Another simple compromise, not sure if it's been stated before:

Caps based on combat or total level. Most of the real-world traders are low levels, and most stakers are high levels.

Level 3-10: 1k cap
Level 10-20: 5k cap
Level 20-30: 10k cap
Level 30-40: 20k cap
Level 40-50: 50k cap
Level 50-60: 100k cap
Level 60-70: 250k cap
Level 70-80: 500k cap
Level 80-90: 1m cap
Level 90-100: 10m cap
Level 100-110: 25m cap
Level 110-120: 100m cap
Level 120-126: Unlimited

The numbers can be changed of course. The cap is based on the lower player's combat level. Duels must be 1-1 stakes (stated earlier by someone else).

[Swinkid]

Agreed who wants to go on a riot?

[Braniac]

I Agree on the Ruined But not on the Staking cap List you made because there are low level rangers that stake... and other stakers

[:Jakey]

**** this update is well dumb.. i think that andrew gower should be hung drawn and quartered for being such a penor

[Matty]

I don't get it, you can still stake properly like before, upstairs...

[Skiller]

I don't get it, you can still stake properly like before, upstairs...

[Calum]

Go to the normal works theres no limit its just for the griup one its 3k per thing

[Matty]

Probably a world such as 22, non-tournament world will be the same as before.

gordon bennet...

okay my lovelys:

In a 1 on 1 duel (in the old- upper floor duel arena) you can only stake a max of 5k (jagex have changed it from 3k to 5k.. so generous -.-)

On the bottom floor, you enter tournaments where you stake a certain amount each depends on what rank you are.. to get 64mill, you'd have to play in a high ranked game and stake 1mill.. then fight for a 1 in 64 chance of winning..

so basically.. staking is ruined.. i've prettymuch quit anyhow, but jagex are messing up the game baaaaaad =[

[J4M3S]

Staking is by no means ruined, it will keep people from "getting rich quick" though, and stop stupid people from wasting all of their cash.

I've made nearly 10m today off of the new system, i love it.

[deagle]

Level 100-110: 25m cap
Level 110-120: 100m cap


Obviously not.

I don't see how you can call them stupid, staking is profitable.

Max. input I've come accross so far is 24k.
2(120202:123102:122602) 12-[CS]RuneScript12- *** [ 07CALC ]: 0724*64000 = 071,536,000 So a gain of 1.5m if you win.

[Gigitir]

I'm glad, atleast now i can't get cleaned.

o.0 But then again now i can't get rich again -.-

[Grimmauld]

duh its ruined is it that hard to figure out.

Staking is ruined. Winning 3k isn't fun and exciting. Winning higher ammounts was. :(

I understand they want to stop real life traders but it's not like it really affects us when people trade like that, unlike autoers who ruin the economy. In fact, Jagex gains from real life traders who used the dueling arena because both traders would have to buy members. :P

[Seagy]

Agreed ;)

[Saosin]

nice one jagex. what else can you make better next week?!

[micky.blue.eyes]

nice one jagex. what else can you make better next week?!

Next up: You now don't lose anything when you die pk'ing. Real life traders are using pk'ing as a way to get the money to the other person. So from now on you don't lose any items when you die pk'ing.

[Runescaper-06]

I agree aswell.

[Imnotpure]

Say a 110 was staking a level 90? What would be the cap?

[Ezzie.]

there's no cap.. any level can enter the tourney which is why it sucks so hard. ^_^

[Vibes]

Completely agree

[--ss--]

If they want to stop real life traders make it so you have to be 50+ combat to enter the arena or something seeing rl traders are low levels.
