Hello everyone,

Today we're proposing some changes to the current 3rd Age economy to try to make their price more reflective of how rare they should be. They were extremely easy to obtain for awhile, and their price, in our opinion, is way too low for their effectiveness. The proposed changes are:

• Remove all current 3rd age equipment from the game (aside from the Pickaxe and Axe, which are custom donations)
• Make 3rd age equipment much more rare from Clue scrolls (similar to OSRS rates)
• Make 3rd age equipment much more rare from Lucky impling jars (similar to OSRS rates)
• Make it so that you can only have 1 clue scroll of any type at a time.
  • For example, if you already have an Easy clue scroll in your bank, you can't pick up any more off the ground, though you could still pick up an Elite clue scroll if you don't already have one. This would also apply to Clue bottles.

We'd like to hear your opinion on these changes, so please submit your votes and comment below if you have any other suggestions relevant to these proposed changes.

Regards,
Alora Staff Team

Make phats rare as well

Can you make it where we can combine clues to make a master clue?

[Zach McCoy]

Please I'm begging you do not make it so you can only have one clue scroll at a time of each variation. That means that you would have to do the clue scroll instantly and not be able to put in your bank and save it for a later time. Since I'm going for 200m fishing atm, I am getting quite a bit of them and if this change was implemented you would have to stop fishing to go do them that instant if you wanted to get more. I highly do not support the clue scroll chance but do think 3rd age armor should stay in the game as long as the prices increase and it becomes more rare.

[Sassa fras]

I support all of these changes.
Also, obligatory "please add master clues and bloodhound" if a clue scroll rework is happening.

@Omicron, I believe these changes will help benefit Alora in the long run.

 

Thank you so much for polling this! I hope it passes.

[Toxic tato]

can't see why this would be introduced this late in the game. big no from me.

Hey @Zach McCoy, as you know, Alora strives to become as similar to OSRS as possible. I don't feel like your intentions in this poll are based on all the community, but for your own preferences. As for the reset on the 3rd age, I think that's a must. Considering you can buy a full set with 20m is insane. You can't simply wait for something to increase in price without working on it.

[Isekaii]

I support all the changes except holding 1 clue at a time, if master clues would be implemented than I would 100% support having 1 clue at a time

[FrankerZ]

Well this mess's ironmen over and people who skill, Imo you can make 3rd age rarer but whatever you do don't remove being able to stack multiple clues as for fishing you can get so many clues and this would delay people who eventually want to do the clue scrolls.

As you can see from some other players comments, I'm not the only person that feels this way.

[Shamrock]

it will suck for players who bought 3rd age weapons but I guess at the same time their value is just going down so I suppose there is no choice =/ rip me. and at this point due to its votes, you might as well delete all clue items out of the game and reset the entire thing. all clue items are worthless at this time. delete all rares, might as well to make it worth it all around doing clues 

[Noj]

No support. It's trash armor that has no practical use in PVM, or PVP, so what does it matter if it's rare and not super rare?

[Extremedanny]

I would love to do clues and have a small chance of getting that big money item. However only having 1 clue at a time is a big no for me. Also add master clues and me the awards that are now custom donations also really rare. Or just add them to the elite clues.

[Rune Coon]

Thanks for polling this

Lol at all the no votes on having one clue at a time..

[Elite dezrix]

Would definately like 3rd age being more rare, kinda sad to see my kiteshield go though..

[Anowas]

Yes, yes, yes, no.

Lets make it happen.

[MT]

I support everything except removing stackable clues. I feel this is a key feature to have for ironmen farming up clues for gear and supplies.

[Trip Sixes]

I agree with everything, and support it all, except the stackable clues. That'd be a total bummer to lose that, no lie.

[Jisoo]

Whatever the decision, I expect to be compensated for the 3a collection I have if you plan on removing it all from the game.
