Thanks for your normal comment on the topic.@ LTG Arrow

Ur Welcome, i get were ur comming from, but changing this and making it possible to buy the vials would make tob even more dead than it already is.. so i really dont think it would benefit the game.

[Mack]

In agreement with just about everyone else here.

 

No support whatsoever.

@ iron aritus  @ LTG Arrow  @Oce Vajyena how do u idiets not understand it's about hassle!!!

 

OT: No support.

A lot of people aren't understanding that the basic arguement that op is making.

 

For all intents and purposes, in order to use your scythe as a player, you are FORCED to do TOB.   If you believe you should have to do TOB to earn your vials of blood fine, so do I.  Adding Vials of Blood to shops would further decrease the number of players looking to do TOB.  Because of this, OP you will find NO SUPPORT for adding vials to shops from me.

 

However, the scythe is unsustainable as a weapon just by doing your own TOB runs.  You can't get enough vials of blood to allow use of the scythe outside of raids runs.  Because of this, you get stuck in a cycle of raid to recharge scythe, recharge scythe, immediately start raiding to recharge scythe the next time.  It is difficult to break out of this cycle, especially as an ironman who doesn't even have an option to struggle to buy vials from other players.  Because of this, I SUPPORT a slight buff to Vials of Blood drop rate.

No support, if you wish to use best in slot weapons, unfortunatly you will have to pay best in slot prices.

You know using a scythe comes with operating costs, if you want more vials you can either buy them for a high price or do tob to obtain them.

If you are not willing to pay the operating costs then dont use it, imo its as simply as that.

Getting hostile to people who disagree with you isn't a great way to get your point across. If people don't like your idea go back and think of a better way to support your initial idea. Maybe the idea isn't making it so the vials are as easy as walking into the shop and buying them. Maybe suggest making vials of blood drop in an increased amount than it currently does or instead of having 1 vial last 100 hits increase the potency to 125,150,175,or even 200. Don't get so worked up about people disagreeing with you. I do not support Vials of blood being placed into shops.

I do not support vials of blood being added to the shops, but I am neutral on increasing their drop rate.

As someone who has a scythe on Normie EIM and GIM I will not support this suggestion. On normie I have maybe 70kc and earned around 800 vials. EIM I have around 225 ish kc with nearly 3k vials from that. GIM I have roughly 100 kc and around 1.7k total vials on that. Yes we like to offer ease of access things compared to osrs but the Scythe of Vitur is a very prestigious weapon if not THE MOST prestigious weapon.

And as such it should come with a cost as many other individuals have said here. But adding the "fuel" of the highest tier melee weapon to a shop that can be considered "infinite " would cause detrimental devalue to the Scythe itself.

As iron aritus said vials were never the problem to the weapons that required them. It was the blood runes that was the bottleneck to this problematic conundrum. This has since been "fixed" .

Though I can see your point and understand where you're coming from the addition of a shop with vials of blood just seems like the best way to devalue TOB more than what it is currently. There are a multitude of reasons I would never support this suggestion but I would be rambling for hours about this.

If you take my drops into account 800+3000+1700=5500~ vials of blood in 400~ raids = 13.75 vials of blood per TOB. Now a standard TOB time to complete is around 18-20 mins if you have a team that's half decent at mechanics. So 42 vials an hour equates to 12,375 blood runes. The Scythe has an attack speed of 5 with 3 second intervals. So in theory you would use "ROUGHLY" 40k charges an hour if you hit non stop the entire time. Now divide that by 100casts per one vial that's 400 vials for an entire hour.

This is where I would somewhat agree with you on putting them into a shop. But at the end of the day it would devalue the Scythe of Vitur DRASTICALLY.

I'm sorry but if you want to use the most powerful weapon as much as you'd like. I would camp the trading post and no life TOB just like everyone (Normie and all Ironman modes) do.

Have a great day

Are you fucking people not seeing the point im making??? nothing to do with Cash,Money,GP make this shit WHATEVER YOU WANT IN PRICE.... 30k a vial 50k a vial IDC... the point is.. 

 

 

It's a Hassle on ALORA to get Vial's of Blood... OSRS buy the shit instantly...

 

The Scythe of Vitur is a great weapon but there are almost no Vial's of Blood  for sale and  it's annoying to grind raids just to have to earn them.. For the people who are selling them they're asking a arm and a leg for  Vial's of blood.  In old school runescape these vials only cost 2,300gp each they are cheap and hardly worth anything? why make them so uncommon on here?

 

Which is it? In your initial post you were complaining about the vials being overpriced in tp but now you don't care if you have to pay a lot of money?
