Recent Climbing Boots Change - Updated Information
This sticky has been created in response to the most commonly asked questions and feedback we have received regarding the recent changes that were made to the climbing boots that you are able to buy after starting the Death Plateau quest.
To say that this update provokes inflation is like saying that taking home a bucket of sand from the beach will make it disappear. The amount of GP that enter and leave the game on a daily basis is about 8 to 10 times as high as the amount that entered the game’s economy yesterday by increasing the value of the climbing boots. Basically, the same amount of money per person could be made by chopping yew logs for a couple of hours and then alching the bows made - a relatively small one-off addition to the coins going through the game.
Although there were occasional outliers, the distribution of the number of boots between players was pretty even. 55% of people had one pair of boots; 99 % of people had fewer than 50 pairs of boots (which if they sold to the shop for 45k would give 2.25 mil).
"Why would you give an item an increased value based on its bonuses and then let it be alced for more than boots with better bonuses, just because they cannot be bought from a shop?"
What we wanted to achieve is that players who use these boots for their bonuses, in particular on PvP and Bounty worlds, are risking an appropriate amount of GP that has a resemblance of the bonuses that they get from them. So far, it was very cheap to get good stats on the boots slot – too cheap.
We want the shop to provide a back-up supply of reasonable boots in the event that people aren’t fighting for good rune and dragon boots from drops, not to undermine the market for those rewards. So the price has to be fairly high to achieve this.
"Why only climbing boots? There are many items that have better bonuses. For example, a strength amulet has +10 Strength bonus, should we be expecting a huge rise in that item too?"
The aim of this change was not to re-value items based on their stats, but to deal with a huge number of people trying to buy these boots for such a low value that there was no supply.
The climbing boots were high on our list of items to re-evaluate due to the scale of imbalance in their supply and demand, and generally, other items don’t have the same problem so we wouldn’t expect to make a similar drastic change elsewhere.
"PLEASE, explain your logic behind this. Climbing boots high alch for 45k. Is there a reason for this? You're already raising an item by 74.8k (which nobody is going to buy now) and you've given it a huge alching price!
Dragon Boots high alch for 12k
Rune Boots high alch for 7.5k
Both of these boots have better stats. Why do climbing boots have such a high alch price?"
Dragon boots and rune boots are both more important items in the game than climbing boots. They are drops on specific NPCs that people can go out to get, and we want them to hold value. In re-valuing the climbing boots we tried to price them so that the armoured boots would generally be attractive in comparison.
"Other items change their price with supply and demand, why was this item manually changed?"
The boots were not changing in price with supply and demand, as the Grand Exchange was unable to raise the price sufficiently above the low shop price. So even though there were thousands of people wanting to buy the climbing boots, and prepared to pay a higher market price, unless we changed the intrinsic value of the boots, they could not go to the price which the market needed to balance supply and demand.
Do you think they are telling the truth?and my reply is
If this is the reply for the whole problem
I feel disappointed
as this update is so ridiculous
Why don't you just make a new item
and leave the old one
just let ppl pay 10k or 75k whatever to upgrade it
you made another PARTYHAT ITEM
