I can get behind an ironman private instance but I think 250k per private instance is a little too much to pay per run.



The 25k priv instance on leagues for Kraken was really nice. its a good gold sink and allows irons to actually get their loot killing a boss.
I've killed to many bosses to have the god damn msg pop up of somebody has dealt damage. the same goes for godwars. the godwars on leagues is working wonderfully, its about time jagex gives some love to irons.



I think 25k per instance would be way too low. If you’re wanting a gold sink, you would have to cost much higher. You usually make that back in 1 kill, without uniques. I also think kraken is super low (I don’t really complain about that bc I only use it) bc when I walk away from my 40-60 kill trip I’m holding onto like 400k+ gp. We will see what happens. I don’t find too many problems for gwd other than bandos. Kree, zammy, and sara I can almost always find a world within 4 minutes.

im okay with an ironman only instance for gwd tbh as long as they dont bring this for regular players as well



I actually thought normies wouldn’t think it’s fair which is why I said it could be added for all players, but I don’t have a mindset of a normie. Is this how most normies think? I feel like they half are “fuck you iron, deal with it, stop catering to irons” and the other half are like “we should get it too!” With a few normies in neither like whatever 🤣

honestly if being an iron means being forced to instances because the game is too overpopulated for an area they need to change how instance works with the deaths. currently if you die in an instance you lose all pots and food upon deaths, meanwhile non instanced areas those items all drop to the floor and u can retrieve them or use them to make your next trip bigger.

i think the best solution for ironmen is the do with gwd what was done with corp, as soon as you go into the areas its separated between irons and normals so its still not instanced so you dont have a risk of losing your shit.

i agree with a gold sink but i don't think it should be only irons having to pay that just for being an iron. I think they should make it where if you go into bandos or wherever else you have to pay a set fee and then that fee may be removed if you were to die which would make it a gold sink all around and take out a shit ton of gold.


E/ and the fee doesnt have to be big either, even if its 10k if you think about it in prime time on rs theres prob 10+ people dying per minute in the area so it would take a lot of gold out of the game.

“ Lets take a look at Bandos hiscores and how much ironmen contribute to it

Lets look at some hiscores, you can only get ranked on bandos with 50 kc, there are a little over 163k players ranked at bandos. of which, of these 163k players, there is around 9900 ironmen. People are telling us that these 9900 players, with significantly worse kills per hour, will crash the price? (this statement is pretty flawed, and probably shouldnt be here)
Lets also compare the rank 1 bandos ironman vs his spot on global hiscores. He has a total of 5000 kc. His spot on the global hiscores is a whopping rank 521. Assuming average luck he gets one bandos armor piece every 127 kills, hes introduced 40 pieces to the economy (assuming he droptrades it). Meanwhile the other 500 players above him have introduced a minimum of 40 pieces each as well. rank 1 bandos so far has about 43500 kc almost 9x the amount as rank 1 ironman.
Frankly the top ironmen is still only a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of KC mains get. And I think its safe to assume most ironmen leave bandos once they get the hilt, top and tassets. Lets assume most ironmen finish bandos at around 684 kc giving them a 75% chance to have all the items. Including boots which everybody might not even stay for. That narrows the 10k ironmen down to 1600. just about 16% actually finish bandos assuming this luck. Going up to around 1300 kc for people who are really dry, we re down to only 250 ironmen left. Meaning a majority of players leave bandos way before they start introducing any significant amount of drops through drop trading.
TL:DR; most ironmen leave bandos long before they even reach killcounts which could in theory introduce alot of duplicate drops that gets droptraded”

https://reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/jx453r/lets_take_a_look_at_bandos_hiscores_and_how_much/

People who think that irons are going to crash the economy don’t realize how many fewer people play iron than regular accounts. There’s absolutely no reason to grind an iron to go farm any money maker when it’s drastically easier to make a non iron and get it done in a 3rd or 4th of the time.

Also I would 100% want this for regular accounts. Hoping for 30 minutes to find a world is fucking pathetic. Let me get an instance with the bros and get my 120kc trip, instead of hoping till one of us finds a budget gear group and steal their world from them.

upon reconsideration:
something needs to be done about the guys holding down 4 bandos worlds with 5 accounts so they can pet hunt
alts ruin the integrity of the game imo

Oh I forgot about Reddit. Never look there. This is kind of interesting to look at. I’m assuming he is accurate with his statements as well.

Agreed.
I also believe voting polls should be changed to 60/40 takes majority win. I'm all for updates. PvP included. Makes the game more enjoyable having more shit to do.
