The bond in oldschool has been out of control lately. Sure historically the price of bonds goes up over time but this year alone its gone up over 8 million gold. Today we are going to diving in to the specifics of what is happening. What is causing this level of gold inflation in osrs, and how expensive will bonds be in the future.
Were also going to be covering all of the biggest price changes this month. Thanks to upcoming updates like the project rebalance and varlamore part 2, there is a lot to talk about this month.

The short answer: Because Jagex didn't learn nothing from RS3's economics problems. The short explanation: If you print money with new broken bosses and don't establish a way or mechanic to burn that money, you get inflation.

@slayer100141 25 күн бұрын

OSRS needs true item/gold sinks. The GE tax is not enough and it is really starting to show. If OSRS had something like Invention from RS3 where you can disassemble almost every item in the game for resources you can use in a skill then it would help massively with how many items are being pumped into the game; as an aside I also think this would help the stackable clue arguments because clue scroll uniques would potentially have an actual use so their price wouldn't drop too badly by more clues being done. This is all to say we need a new skill like Invention in RS3 because I can't see any way to implement a true one size fits all item/gold sink without tying it to a skill in anyway. Last sidenote I also think this is why Summoning or a skill extremely like it would also be helpful because Summoning also was used as an item/gold sink with how many random items you needed to make some of the pouches for familiars.

@Phnxkon 24 күн бұрын

@slayer100141 it is the solution for items becoming devalued. All it would do is make gp move around more. I think we would need the opposite and some way to siphon gp out. Taxes feel bad honestly. Something that sucks out large amounts of gold like construction. Maybe sailing will have this cost built in? Also making pvm not shit out gp would be nice.

@crasyrob 28 күн бұрын

Zombie pirates being in the wildy is balanced from a player perspective, but whether it's the player, the bot, or the PKer that walks out with the loot, all of that is still being brought into the economy. They are the exact opposite of a gold sink. Fever spiders seem like someone forgot to add a 0 to the end of each item's drop rate, save for the Kwuarms. A level 42 slayer mob should not be that lucrative. Making everything 10x rarer would not have them be a money task, but rather a low level task where you might leave with a few small upgrades and a bit more money.

So, OSRS is written in Java, and the value for max cash is the maximum value allowed for the int primitive. Jagex needs to rewrite the coin class so it is a long primitive. This shouldn't cause the need to rewrite a lot of the codebase since Java automatically widens values from int to long. Anyhoo, good video. Thanks

Theirs a very big difference between wealth injection and gold injections. For example runes and bones and herbs can become gold for the player that obtained them, but their worth gold they don’t directly become gold. On the other hand, dragon hide armors, addy gear, these don’t really do anything but become gold adding to the economy. Jadex really really needs to not just add some real gold sinks, but need to really lay off those alckables and find some way to get player to transfer items for wealth not for direct gold.

What's wrong with the Tonalztics of ralos? It's your best spec weapon on bosses that you can't melee, like Kree, Leviathan, and Olm (head). Imo it's worth having for those sorts of bosses.

@Demilak 27 күн бұрын

Got a fang drop yesterday, after GE tax I received under 15m. And the only place I've found the glaives to be useful is in scaled CoX for Olm Head. Certainly felt like I got value out of it in a 5+4. I couldn't name you a second place to use it, though. I use it on on a few other bosses in CoX (it's not terrible on momma muta) since I'm bringing it anyway, but that's more for memes than actual benefit. I really hope they buff that item because it does feel cool to use.

not sure about other items but i thought of the bond value increasing as an indicator of demand. the game keeps breaking player count records (from a combination of real players and bots). maybe it's a mix of increase in demand + gold rapidly entering the game? i guess only jagex would know for certain.

@thegamedevcave 28 күн бұрын

i just rejoined osrs a few months ago, so i am nowhere near even thinking about what max cash stack size is. but hearing it's 2,1B and that this is a problem is kind of insane to me. because this feels like something the devs have seen coming for a while now right? and upgrading that max cash stack to a higher (honestly unobtainable) number wouldn't be THAT much work I have to assume... unless OSRS code is an insane mess... I have to imagine the limit is because money is being stored in a 32 bit value, upgrading that to a 64 bit value should honestly be a matter of a few lines of code (assuming their code is a messy nightmare, a bit more but still probably managable)... at which point the max value of a stack would jump up to 18.446.744.073.709.551.615 (which is 18 quintillion).. So i have to imagine them not upgrading max stack size has more to do with them wanting to fight this inflation in different ways than any development related reasons honestly.

This is one of those instances where I feel like Warding or some other proposed skill should be added. Something that basically acts as a money sink that can take money out of the in-game economy. Honestly, I feel like this is one of the few things RS3 got right in the form of Summoning and Invention. I'm hoping that Sailing at least serves a similar role to help deflate the economy a little bit.

It's more that there is no significant item/gold sinks to take items and gold out of the economy. More and more gets added but close to nothing is being removed. It is fine to have these great drop tables but without the sinks to counter act the drop tables you will get massive inflation.

With the price of bonds and being a skiller, I think I might be done for either a long while or all together. My account got hacked and someone took 100m (my whole bank).

The last idk 10 updates have introduced almost purely alch value based drop tables, like wildy agility, skely pirates, fever spiders and even the colloseum can drop millions in alchs per run, basically everything has been easy to bot and considering ban rates are down it’s hard to say this isn’t all just to increase the price of bonds, though if you look at the real estate market bonds have been keeping up with that level of inflation pretty close lmao

I believe the biggest source of gold in the game is High alch. It produces so much gold to the game and is a training method that everyone uses. If Jagex wants to fix this I would change it to produce gold bars instead of gold coins. High alch an item to an item instead of pure gold.
