price check on f cape acc

Hey I'm wondering the price of a 1 defence 1 pray 50-55 range fire cape account, thanks

 

bamp

 

From you maybe like 30M at least, do people really care that much about those types of accounts though?

 

they seem to care a lot as I know people that paid 200m+ for a 1 pray 1 def fire cape

 

although that is what they paid for their account, not what people bought those accounts for, that is why I'm curious.

 

It's more of a personal preference as the item is relatively useless unless it's an account build (like a gmaul account or obby mauler)
That being said, seeing you actually have vouches I think you'd be able to get 50-75$/account due to vouches.
Might be a bit difficult to sell due to it being a specific build that would find it useful

 

If you decide to sell I would pay 50$ anyday

 

$100 at the very least.

 

I also would say it is about 50-60$.

 

id say 75$ or maybe 150M

 

I would say atleast 150m. But it depends on other stats. If it is a decent mauler it can go for ALOT esp on PA. Why I say that is because I've seen a 60 range 31 pray 97 strength mauler w/ miths slay staff fcape get a legitimate offer for 1k while being listed at 1.5k.

 

You're stating an obby mauler with 97 str is worth X4 the price of a 99/99/99 staker account
a staker account takes +-360 hours of NMZ for all 99s
a 99 str obby mauler takes +-375 hours at sand crabs at 35kexp/hr

Also not to mention 31 prayer fucks an obby mauler completely. You go from 53 combat -> 57 combat.


Nothing personal, but logically speaking it makes so sense that one would be worth x4 the price when they take the same amount of hours.

 

You can only hold a 2 spot w/ 1 attack properly making it around 20-25k an hour max. Maybe more now that sand crabs is out.

firecape on an obby mauler w/o 31 prayer is useless. People protect imbued ring + berserk neck + maul w/o 25+ pray. Meaning they hit more then you WITH a fire cape. 31 prayer for a mauler is perfect because then you protect imbued + fire cape + berserk neck + maul and max 48s. trust me I've maxed plenty of obbys and lead obby communities. I know what I am talking about.

Max with fire cape 1 prayer 54 combat is 41. Vs 58 cb 48. Definitely worth.
Also you have to add in time from halo + slayer. Also accounts are not valued solely on time but also uniqueness. There are probably 4-5 obby maulers currently in game with decent stats and 1-31 prayer fire capes.

I literally know the guy who sold the account for over 1k. It's not a debate it's just what I know lol. I don't see how we can debate the price of an account when it was already in transaction 4 months ago. I have no reason to lie about that ?

 

I used to have my own obby mauler before isold it w/ 84 str fully quested with slay staff/zammy book/bring i/fcape/ varrock armour and all the good shit. I used to cap 30k exp/hr at 3 crab spot at waterbirth isle. Now that sandcrabs are out, it's even more afkable with a shitload of 3 spots and a bank within 2 minutes walking distance meaning there's no need for house tabs etc.

Considering the fact that most level 55 ish builds are gmaulers I'll use them as an example.
a level 53 combat gmaul will be around 70 range and 63 Str.
a level 57 combat gmaul will be around 80 range and 77 Str.

Ultimate str only boosts max hit by 5 and in return you'll be fighting people w/ +10 range/str levels.

Also, sorry but your logic behind why prayer is a benefit apart from the 5 damage boost is also insignificant. one MAIN reason obby maulers are tempted/decide to get prayer up is not because of the +4 items, it's because they can protect their obby necklace all the time.

In regards to you stating the price that it would be worth more than 400-500$ I'll still disagree. You're taking one assumption that 1 sale = general price and not an idiot who overpaid a fuck ton.

You can't state an account build is worth X3-X4 the price of a maxed main when even taking your own exp rates (which are outdated) of 25kexp/hr is 520 hours of rock crabs which is (?) 150 hours ish more than a maxed main whilst practically costing nothing.

Never stated you lied, but you took one example nobody knows about and refer to it like it's the current price for such a build, which is not.

price you think an account is worth =/= the actual value of the account

that being said Feel free to respond trying to defend every single statement but I won't bother replying because I'm not here to clutter/spam op's thread. Feel free to argue with me on skype about it

 

First all I'm going to say I have lead obby clans / made obby builds and done fire capes, and that's literally all I have done the last 8 years on runescape. I know what I'm talking about and literally everyone in the obby community knows that I know what I am talking about.

-- Also w/ that extra strength bonus it is more then a + 5 max hit. 58 combat is still in 54 bracket which g maulers still are low level at that cb.
Also it isn't 57 vs 53 combat even it is 58 vs 54 even if you were to manage 87 hp instead of 88.

I have a 58 maxed obby w/ fire cape 31 prayer, it is probably one of the most OP builds I have ever used in the wilderness and my twin account can agree. And yes I have also maxed 16 atts, 20 atts, 13 prays, and 1 prays. Actually my account was 1 prayer until I realized it made it useless.

This is literally because having a fire cape on an obby at 1 prayer is in fact USELESS. This is because you cannot protect fire cape w/ 1 prayer if you have imbued ring it is virtually better to 3 item with because +4 more strength..

Here's a picture to enlighten you of the combats and max hits of each build and how they are actually separated by 7 max hits instead of 5 like you say:



Now for my validity on the pricing:

I have even sold my own old 20 att crap mauler for 800 w/ 52 prayer and fire cape, there are not many examples but the few I have seen add up to this. People on PA overpay for unique accounts you are right, doesn't mean it only happens one time though. Obby maulers are what many consider unique. I have also seen 80 strength maulers being sold 300-400 on PA actually without fire cape or imbued ring.

I even got told by someone they would pay 1,100 for this before I sold it if it didn't have the attack and pray (hmm like my friends account?). Here's evidence of this



I am literally wondering from what you said here :
"one MAIN reason obby maulers are tempted/decide to get prayer up is not because of the +4 items, it's because they can protect their obby necklace all the time. "

If you've ever even been in the wildy to observe this. about 90% of obby maulers are nonskullers, even with prayer. The only ones who skull are neck riskers @ level 32ish who don't have 31 prayer anyways.

Best example I can find of how unique low and high level maulers are overpriced at the moment is this. A mauler w/ literally 60 strength is going for 160 on PA with no mith gloves, no slayer staff. You could make this account in a day right? But no, the reason it is priced high is because it has a fire cape at 42 combat, and this is WITH prayer. Now think about what it would go without with nothing else as it is now. Then add an imbued ring, miths, slay staff, and near maxed strength level. This thing is even RANGE BASED:

ALSO from what you said here: "You're stating an obby mauler with 97 str is worth X4 the price of a 99/99/99 staker account". It is almost the same time commitment, and until recently these maxed stakers were flooded in the game through full AFK on nightmare zone. There are thousands of these maxed accounts in game, there are maybe 5 near maxed prayless maulers with fire capes. Price is not only determined by time required to make the account.

That is all.. Hope you actually take the time to look over this and reconsider your opinion.

 

I can vouch for Guthixs Vans/Rendimento knowing his shit. He wouldn't make this up.
I was in Elite Obby Clan with him for years..
He and I both know what we're talking about in regards to this topic and he's certainly correct.

Snipped it to make it shorter.

First thing I'd like to address is I'm not sure why you keep referring to firecape as useless without prayer when you can simply run back to where you died to pick it up. You keep implying that a mauler with a firecape/no prayer is useless when it's max hit with one would be 426 / 42 on osrs.

In regards to pking and how useful it is to be quite honest and blunt I don't give a fuck. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say sure, let's say prayer's worth it because in the end it doesn't make a difference because my main concern was the ridiculous prices.


In regards to pricing I'll disagree. Again. (We can agree to disagree.)
Although what you're saying in regards to prices does make sense to a certain extent the PA you linked in regards to the obby mauler w/ 60 str and 43 pray is absurd *especially* when there's people on these exact forums that offer to do firecapes with 50 range/43 prayer for +- 40$.

 

Fire cape protects over imbued ring. Meaning you would lose imbued ring with 1 prayer. Meaning you would be better off pking with imbued ring as a 3rd item with 1 prayer then fire cape. So no your max is 41 like I said. And also I'm not just comparing that 1 pa transaction, I have already listed two other experiences I have seen including one personal one for a 1,100 dollar offer on an account with stats I was just talking about above which you didn't agree was worth 1,000 but was bought for that as well. It is not a single instance pricing if it has happened on multiple occasions.

And also you obviously do care about pking etc you were the one who introduced the whole argument of how apparently 31 prayer is useless on a mauler and like it had been unheard of in response to somehow claim my statements made previously were exaggerated. And the fact is every pray less cape Mauler who pk's has 31 prayer because of this.

I'm done here. Just don't see the need to originally quote me and basically act like I'm making up a price from no where, when I have valid proof to back up everything I've been saying to a degree.

 

^ Goodluck, These cost alot tho!!
