This is relating to all the news updates being done.
So with the supposed introduction of Player-owned ports this month, and the supposed requirements for it & the new rewards. What does everyone think the effect on the RS economy it will have & general thoughts on it.
Just from a quick read, seems like a nice addition. Probably safe to assume Prayer/Herblore/Smithing/Crafting ingredients will rise?
Obviously, the new equipment will have an effect on current prices, but no real way to know in the long run which way they'll go until it's released. Again safe to assume initially the prices will be inflated, and other armours as a result will drop?
Accessing the port requires at least level 90 in one of the following skills: Herblore, Prayer, Runecrafting, Thieving, Slayer or Fishing. Each skill attracts a different adventurer, who has their own deep, mysterious storyline to investigate, unlocking more and more of the fabled Eastern Lands. If you want to explore ALL of the content that the ports can offer, you’ll need at least level 90 in all of those skills.
There are heaps of new rewards to be accessed as your crew brings back the rare and elusive items of the eastern archipelagos. There are so many rewards, in fact, that we can only give a taster here:
New level 85 equipment for rangers, mages and warriors. These need to be crafted, runecrafted or smithed by players with 90+ in those skills.
