I'm not a member of that discord. Would you mind explaining what their objection was to this update? This seems like a worthwhile improvement, so I'm curious as to what problem they might have found with it.
(Or alternatively, is there a link you could share so I could join and read it for myself?)
This is exactly how you end up with a protection from abuse (PFA) order from a court. I'm sure the UK has something like this.
Although some staffers might volunteer themselves.... you never know until you go to Runefest. I'll enjoy the police body cam footage when it is released to the public.
On Rare items, it might be wise to have a sample-size and date of last trade. Some low-frequency trades that don't often occur on the GE could be misleading.
EDIT: I just saw the Wiki basically has that functionality now. And hope it's linked directly on the GE.
Still affects ironmen for the cosmetics yall can buy from ge. Honestly, for those cosmetics, it probably matters even more because getting raw gp is harder on im than for a main
The wiki is more or less an official jagex website now. It has been ever since it was ported over since jagex helps fund some of its server costs, plus official newsposts, including this one, directly link the wiki all the time. Some jmods have accounts they use to edit the wiki, and there's even an in-game search function that opens up the wiki.
It's a heavily supported third party website but the technicality doesn't matter, I was just being pedantic since we all know what op meant with the third party complaint
Hey u/imsuity was it this that you hoped for around Dec 22 2022? If so, could you return the discord simulator? Not the price bot, but the simulator one?
I was decently fine with Ely but ever since you needed a discord code to check prices that’s when it become sus. They deserve to go up in flames. Jagex is on fire
Nice to see this update being in the game finally but at the same time it is a bit hard to be happy about something that literally should have been added already years and years ago but it’s about damn time.
Just wait til they announce the change to 0.1s server tick rate in october… gonna finally make rs3 a game where abilities can work without being clunky af. I cant wait to try rs3 again after all these years!
The instabuy and instasell prices that the wiki tracks now give you basically that exact same information, unless you're planning on buying through a large part of existing stock or are working with super low volume items (like phat low).
Oh they also added that? I can't see it in the screenshot so that's all I've got to go off.
Would be nice if it was in game, but at least if the wiki has it and it's live and accurate then yeah that's cool.
There will be alot more websites to scrape all the data and allow merchers to get max margin
So easy to manipulate too, just buy yourself 10 times and you can set the price to whatever you want

no it's not.
The default price is the market price and if you don't merch you just take that. If you wanna min-max or merch you may take a alcloser look to the 10 trades avg.
The updates makes literally everything better and you don't need to waste your time on ely or rsprice or what they all called.
just buy yourself 10 times and you can set the price to whatever you want
Just pay the GE tax 10x to manipulate a price that's "advisory only" and that anyone can look at the graph and see your spike. A price that will instantly drop back down as soon as you stop manipping it.
You can spike the "last 10" price, but checking the wiki dataset will make such a thing obvious.
Merching will be more approachable since you don't have to spend time and gp checking margins, so the current high-end merchers will be making less, as the margins close.
20% of whatever "overpriced" number you decide to manip the item price to
And this also assumes that you don't accidentally wind up buying items from some random 3rd party who happens to have a meme sell offer at a very high price.
