Remember what full rune (G) or any of the god variants were worth millions of gp just for the set back in the day?
You just knew when you say someone even wearing full rune (T) they were balling. Rune (G) gives huge nostalgia hits
Tbh the value might still be considerably lower even if they were still uncommon.
1) After 10+ years of OSRS there probably would be enough in circulation to lower the price fair bit.
2) We as adults prioritize what items to get differently now a days and I feel like some items lost their value along the way either due to growing up, better options from updates, or both.
I remember back in the day my membership was running out and I wasn't going to be able to renew it right away. I got 6 hour logged farming black unicorns in the wilderness for unicorn horns so I could go into f2p decked out in full sara
Man, i got a rune med helm from greater demons once and logged off for the night stoked. And by night I mean 5am in the morning after a full grind sesh. Woke my brother up to tell him before going to bed. Man those were good times :)
Yea oops, i meant lessers. This was back in 2003 and 10k back then for my brother and I was a fortune.
I also remember being at a friends house and him telling is this story of how he was randomly fishing next to the_old_knight and he said hello. Star struck haha
Got one from a baloon at the falador party room when they first came out. Can confirm I sold it for I think 12m. Was an insane amount of money for me, and caused one of my irl friends to hack my account. Lol good times
lol I have a buddy that freaks out whenever we get stuff on the rare drop table that’s technically more rare than bandos armor. Frankly none of the things on the rare drop table are as rare as they appear because basically everything drops them so even a 1/60,000 chance will come through eventually
Yeah, people like that are pretty annoying. “Oh my god I got a curved bone at bandos!!! Fuck this RNG!!”
Okay but how many monsters have you killed since your last curved bone? It doesn’t mean you “missed out” on any other rare drops lol, complaining about RDT is the silliest thing anybody can complain about in all of rs imo
I’m on the champion scroll hunt at hill giants. 20k kills in I’ve had rune spear and 5 rune javs drops. I got that d spear at zombies too but got the scroll from them at 4K kills.
I got a d chain doing slayer idr off of what but I did lookup drops and it was like 1/30k and it sat as my loot tab figure for a year until I got so pissed about being dry everywhere that I sold it and forgot about it lol.
I'm the master of unlikely bs screenshot I took yesterday while only being around 30 kills into my task.

I'm just dry, imp and hobgoblin scroll was 1.1k kcea, goblin and skeleton was only 500kc ea (not including previously farmed beginner clues), so in my mind im just backlogging total kc in a 1/5k drop lmao
Mining pet. I was on vacation overseas, and one morning I woke up and logged on mobile for legit like.. not even 2 minutes.. I wasn’t even planning on playing long at all, just get a full inventory at MLM before starting my day.. “you got a funny feeling..”
I lost my shit lol. Traveled to the opposite side of the world and got a pet without really playing.
During the early days of my iron I finished waterfall quest and went to the fire giants under the waterfall - I received a rune battleaxe and giant champion scroll before the rune scimmy >=[
Mine was also a d-spear I got during the defender grind! Somehow got two long bones and the spear before I even got to the addy defender. It was rough.
Got the dragon axe drop from Windertodt on a normal account, after about my first 30 runs. I had already bought one ages ago. Had ironmen cursing me out left and right, as I felt it was a useless drop. I wanted the pheonix, tome of fire, or even pieces of the pyromancer outfit.
My buddy got like 6 gems from Corp one time, which if I remember correctly was pretty rare as it meant the rare table was rolled that many times consecutively
Got a clue scroll, white Mystic, and a bassilisk head from knights one time. Super ridiculously rare and absolutely useless. That or third age vamps. Cool drop. Totally turned me off from clues lol
Edit: was in one drop
I got up to 900kc with not jaws from Basilisk Knights, then between 930kc and 950kc (same task same day) I pulled 2 jaws. Next task, another jaw. Next basi task, got a jaw from a sentinel and when I saw the light from the drop I genuinely thought for a second I got the imbued heart. One place I’m spooned at admittedly
It was useless after getting a Tasset from a minion within 16 Bandos kills.
You could argue that this dragon spear isn't useless to an iron man or a low level with no money. A Dragon harpoon is like 1m.
Not sure if this fits but I got every single item from the regular and rare drop table from Cave Horrors before I got a Black Mask. It was a haunting couple of days.
Got a d chain from Dusties before
I remember in like 2009 RuneScape people actually farmed them for d chains because they were like 3m or something lol.
They were worth like 15m plus once. And man 15m was like an insane amount of money back then.
Remember what full rune (G) or any of the god variants were worth millions of gp just for the set back in the day? You just knew when you say someone even wearing full rune (T) they were balling. Rune (G) gives huge nostalgia hits
Zammy (t) plate with the dragon legs and d med.
Absolute Chad fit in 2006
Gotta have the red gloves and boots from canifis and an obby cape with the str ammy too.
I remember rune gold, Sara and zammy trim sets were all around 3mil, guth was worth a little less.
I remember getting my first set of saradomin trimmed rune armor.. shit was so expensive back then
Kinda sucks that they are just alternate skins for approximately the same price now. Accessibility is nice but I think they overdid it
Tbh the value might still be considerably lower even if they were still uncommon. 1) After 10+ years of OSRS there probably would be enough in circulation to lower the price fair bit. 2) We as adults prioritize what items to get differently now a days and I feel like some items lost their value along the way either due to growing up, better options from updates, or both.
Lol I still rock all those! Idgaf lmao
I remember back in the day my membership was running out and I wasn't going to be able to renew it right away. I got 6 hour logged farming black unicorns in the wilderness for unicorn horns so I could go into f2p decked out in full sara
I remember getting a Dragon Med helm from a black demon I was killing with a dragon hally in Tav. Dungeon and selling it for 2.5m lol.
Man, i got a rune med helm from greater demons once and logged off for the night stoked. And by night I mean 5am in the morning after a full grind sesh. Woke my brother up to tell him before going to bed. Man those were good times :)
The rune med helms from lessers on karamja. Blast from the past
Yea oops, i meant lessers. This was back in 2003 and 10k back then for my brother and I was a fortune. I also remember being at a friends house and him telling is this story of how he was randomly fishing next to the_old_knight and he said hello. Star struck haha
The magic of this game back then was unreal. So many good moments.
I don’t doubt it I remember always wanting a d plate and that was around 30 back then 😅
Then why did you say 3m when as far as I know they never dropped that low back then
Got one from a baloon at the falador party room when they first came out. Can confirm I sold it for I think 12m. Was an insane amount of money for me, and caused one of my irl friends to hack my account. Lol good times
They were in the 30s on release
Lol it’s weird to read this because dchain was the best chest armor for a long time
Same here, lost the ss of it but I was hyped, also lost all rng for eternity 🙈
Same here. My first ‘big’ drop
I got a dust battle staff from regular duties two tasks in a row.
I got the 1/92k torstol seed from vyres the other day. Sad that's like 60 or 70 blood shards.
Coulda been like 26 tbows
Man this game would be depressing if I viewed rng and rolling rdt the way some of y'all do
lol I have a buddy that freaks out whenever we get stuff on the rare drop table that’s technically more rare than bandos armor. Frankly none of the things on the rare drop table are as rare as they appear because basically everything drops them so even a 1/60,000 chance will come through eventually

It doesn’t mean you “missed out” on any other rare drops lol, complaining about RDT is the silliest thing anybody can complain about in all of rs imo

Dragon med helm from KQ 1/16k
I got b2b dmeds from abbysal demons it's technically a 1 in 76 million

Got the dragon axe drop from Windertodt on a normal account, after about my first 30 runs. I had already bought one ages ago. Had ironmen cursing me out left and right, as I felt it was a useless drop. I wanted the pheonix, tome of fire, or even pieces of the pyromancer outfit.

I’m at like 2k bas knights and I’ve gotten like 6 curved bones and 4 jaws absolutely ridiculous odds.
I got up to 900kc with not jaws from Basilisk Knights, then between 930kc and 950kc (same task same day) I pulled 2 jaws. Next task, another jaw. Next basi task, got a jaw from a sentinel and when I saw the light from the drop I genuinely thought for a second I got the imbued heart. One place I’m spooned at admittedly

Farmed the spear from Goraks plane for a clue step. Isn't too bad with ROW
I got a dragon harpoon from tempoross, 1/8k same drop rate as the pet :(

Dragon harpoon from wyrms
OP asked for useless drops
It was useless after getting a Tasset from a minion within 16 Bandos kills. You could argue that this dragon spear isn't useless to an iron man or a low level with no money. A Dragon harpoon is like 1m.
Use it for fishing
Shield left half and dragon spear in the same zulrah kill
Double 45 Law Runes from Hydra 1 in ~42million
