Gop.8713 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 Well if they actually stopped dropping that would explain a price increase on tp, so you kind of answered your own question there . . ? 1 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeraldBC.4927 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 I've been farming runestones just a few hours ago, what are you talking about. Unless....is the hidden cache runestone cap a recent addition? Were the runestones from hidden caches infinite before the update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Fey.1035 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 Seems like Major Caches don't give guaranteed Runestones now, which is unfortunate. I know the Wiki says "high chance" but before it seemed like every single one of these guaranteed a Runestone, but now it's maybe every third one that I'm getting one. Better to save your keys for Mythic and always grab them when players on the map give callouts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeee.3702 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 They still drop but far less often. From around 30-36 chests in 1 map I would get around 15-20 runestones per 25min run. This seems to have changed to 10 runstones from a similar amount of chests. I just did both maps and got 11 on Lowland from 35 chests and 9 from 24 chests in Syntri (not including the Kodan key chests). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cernoch.8524 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 Yes it got nerfed but it makes sense, the drop was obviously not intended and many people knew that. Both lesser and minor had like 90% chance to drop runes stones, it was just too high. Mythical ones also looked pointless to even open cause you needed the key for it. THe farming itself is not really less profitable now, you get arround half of the runestones now but the price also almost doubled so you still make arround the same golds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For two chests (the ones you sniff and dig out) I get a stone. The chests that need a key had a 1:1 ratio. Dunno how it's now, not been to Janthir much anymore now that I'm through it. I try to do the bee hive chest once a day and that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For further research on the topic, look up "free market" and "supply and demand." I kid you not, someone here in the forums was actually talking about subsidised rune pricing... Next up, you pay exponential taxes according to your materials and gold income on a weekly basis and the Tyrian Alliance will redistribute that gold to low income players giving them an Universal Basic Income.

How much per tune? How is it calculated? Per chord? Are lyrics extra? I must know! 😉 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy.3728 Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 They're below one gold again :s From 13 lesser chests I got 2 rune stones today. Got more from other sources. 9 in total from Lowlands today (incl. the bee hive and honey collecting and two or three key chests). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
