All these new tokens, simple question.

Why can't I as an ironman put them in the carnellean treasure chest to give them to others? I can't even put them in the falador party chest, and dying with them simply deletes them in red portal. Pretty much all cosmetic tokens lately and even some previously able to do this with have all been unable to giveaway.

Add Stardust to the Travelling Merchant's Shop

Hey everyone,

I’ve been thinking about ways to make Stardust more accessible for players who enjoy Shooting Stars content but might struggle to collect enough Stardust consistently due to time constraints or other gameplay priorities. Here’s my suggestion:

The Idea

Add Stardust as a purchasable item in the Travelling Merchant's Shop!

Why This Would Be Beneficial

  • Accessibility: It would give players another option to obtain Stardust, especially if they are close to a goal in the Shooting Star Reward Shop.
  • Shop Utility: This addition could further enhance the Travelling Merchant's appeal and make their stock more exciting for stargazers.
  • Game Balance: By setting an appropriate cost or limiting the Stardust quantity available, this could supplement Stardust collection without devaluing Shooting Stars.

Proposed Details

  • Price: Stardust could be priced fairly to reflect its value, such as 1,000–5,000 GP per Stardust or bundled (e.g., 500 Stardust for 2M GP).
  • Frequency: Stardust could be a rare or semi-rare item in the Travelling Merchant's rotating stock to maintain its exclusivity.

What Do You Think?

Would this be a welcome addition to the game? I’d love to hear feedback from the community. If this resonates, maybe we can get Jagex to consider it!

Let’s discuss!

Any option beside member?

Hello RS community!

I am a completely new Runescape player (i’m 26m talking about starting late :p)

I want to play and explore as much f2p before getting member but already ran into a problem. I wanted to start the quest ‘Broken Home’. I need a clear inventory for that quest. I have a purple Christmas present which i can’t open & can’t bank so basically locking me out of that quest unless i buy member.

Does anyone has an option for me to either open or store the present so i can do that quest. I am aware I have loads of other quests to do but was just wondering.

I love the game so far though be it A LOT for a new player :p

Thanks in advance!

Is RS3 ironman worth getting into in 2024 with limited time?

I've played way back in the day, before ironman was even a thing. I like the concept after watching some yt series about it. But I am wondering if it is feasable with only a couple hours to spend here and there..? Is the game really all about the end-game? And how long would it take to get there?

Also, are bonds even possible when using an ironman?

Mattock of Eternity and Void, when?

With the release of the t100 hatchet and pickaxe before it, will we get an moonstone-esque upgrade for our Mattock since Archeology already goes to 120 and has the exact same upgrade path like the other 2 main tools?

Memories of Runescape: A Reflection on Change

It's the end of the year, what better time to look back than now? This is not a post to criticise the current state of the game, but an opportunity to dwell in fond memories from an age past.

Over the last decades, I've occasionally logged back into the game for a bit of nostalgia. For context, I'm now 31M (based in Sydney, Australia) with a wife and child so opportunities to game are far and in between.

I started playing Runescape in 2004; the oldest item I possess in game is a zombie head from the 2005 Halloween Event. I was always a F2P player.

Runescape was the place where I learnt that copper + tin = bronze.

Runescape was the place where I learnt about perseverance. I remember cutting willows by the riverbank at Draynor, or mining coal at the mining guild in Falador, or mining rune essence in Varrock, running back and forth from the bank until I achieved my desired stack; then used them to up my levels or sell them for GP. But my biggest achievement was fishing for lobbies at Port Sarim, using the explorer's ring to teleport to the cabbage patch as a short cut, and running my load to Draynor bank, and selling for 150gp each until I could buy full Sara.

Runescape was a place buzzing with life and activity. I remember joining long congo lines for a drop party. I remember the area outside Varrock Bank in World 1 ablaze with text of players buying and selling, flashing and waving, so much activity that the game was lagging. I remember needing to constantly world hop to less populated worlds just so that I didn't have to fight for a fishing spot, a particular ore to mine, or tree to cut down. I remember when Clan Wars started and the area outside of the portals being packed with people recruiting for their clan, the anticipation of waiting for a war, and then the thrill of massive battles.

Runescape was where I experienced a flower field of emotions: the fear and ‘flight or fight’ from venturing deep into the wilderness where someone could PK you at any moment; the sense of accomplishment of achieving a level up; the pain of losing all your items after being killed by an evil chicken; the ego and pride of rocking up at a low level area in full Sara.

Runescape was the place where I connected with people from all over the world. I remember having a random chat with someone while killing ice giants about how it was so hot where they were in America that they could cook eggs on the sidewalk.

Runescape was the place where I hung out with IRL friends after school and where you could meet new friends in game. I remember a friends list of players marked as green or yellow and available. I remember my IRL friend guiding me through the Dragon Slayer quest. I remember random players pointing me in the right direction. I remember the excitement of seeing that particular friend log in and immediately sending them a PM to meet up and play together.

Runescape was the game that journeyed with me through my coming of age. Everyone was playing it in primary school and early high school. Then it became uncool in late high school and friends would ask, "You still play Runescape?" During this time, I remember giving my account away to a friend. But I just couldn’t completely let go. So a couple of months later, I secretly recovered it back to keep playing.

Yesterday, I logged back in to the game for the first time in over 2000 days. I ran around in a chicken suit costume, and messed around with holiday items. I hopped onto the most populated F2P world and visited my old stomping grounds; Lumbridge, Falador and Varrock were all completely deserted save a few people standing at the Grand Exchange. And it was all complete silence in the chat; not one person said anything during the half hour or so I was online. I looked at my old friends list; all red. That’s when the memories came flooding back.

I'm tearing up while I write this, and my wife caught me crying. The game has changed, the world has changed, and our generation has grown up. But I look back fondly at how Runescape shaped my childhood and I’m thankful for the memories.

Use for anima from arch glacor?

I've been afking arch glacor for a while and wondering if there is any use for the anima? Is it worth putting in auto disassemblers? Or is that a waste of money?

20 hours into making snowballs, and I’ve only gotten 1 Wrapping Paper Booster. Am I doing something wrong?

The Wiki says you have a chance to get a booster with each paper drop. I’ve only gotten 1. What am I missing?

Rate to pull Pink Santa from purple present?

Went to the wiki and it says unknown, is it really unknown or just no one to update the wiki? Pulled a Pink Santa hat from one just by doing dailys so I was curious. Thanks,

Can I appear offline to groupmates in GIM?

I'm just curious is there a way to hide your online status from the rest of your groupmates? I love the guys, but I'd like to sometimes hide that I'm online.

I've tried the typical way of appearing offline but it still shows me online in the panel.

In addition can you turn off level up notifications?

Tip: Use Always Adze Relic to train WC between 23-29 December

If you use Always Adze Relic to train woodcut between December 23rd to December 29th, you will get seren spirits from GOTE/LOTD and rare drop table drops from training firemaking during the Artisian Buff event of the Christmas special.

Basically, you’ll get twice as many Hazelmere’s Signet Rings than currently.

If you cut Timber Fungus at Croesus front while wearing Silverhawk boots:

  • 10m gp/hour
  • Woodcutting Xp
  • Firemaking Xp
  • Agility Xp
  • Invention Xp
  • Possibly the HSR

This will be a great time to watch college football and play RuneScape.

Post below how many HSRs you think you will get between the 23rd to the 29th!!

At what point should I switch to tank gear at Arch-Glacor?

Hey guys!
I just recently started an AG streak with the intent of pushing for a 200 or to just get as far as I can. I don't really have problems with the mechanics or anything but I was curious if there was a consensus as far as when it's most prudent to switch from DPS gear to tank gear. I'm sitting around 1500% enrage on this streak so far and still feel fairly comfortable with the flurry mechanics albeit with a bit more defensive usage than earlier enrages, but I'm not sure what point this will no longer be viable.
Thanks!
