The most EPIC lure, ever. (Or just an idiot kid)

So my friend and I were in the GE fletching, when a kid walks buy with full third-age armour. He was like a level 70 something so we knew he didn't get that from actually playing the game. Him and I came up with a plan to lure him, and if it was successful, then we'd have a nice payout.

We start by talking with him and just being friendly, he joined in with fletching. We talked about his armour and and how he could afford it. He actually pm'd us saying he bought it from a site. So that just confirmed what we thought in the beginning.

Awhile later we get him to show us his bank, he had over 1b in items alone. He had two full sets of 3rd age armour, a set of Armadyl, a 3rd age ammy, a 3rd age mage set, the list went on and on.

My friend and I said we were going to go to green drags, and asked if he wanted to go. We told him to bank his stuff and to bring cheap armour and some pots. After awhile of killing drags, he decides that he is bored and takes off. So my friend and I were unsure if we could still pull it off.

He pm'd us and told us to meet at his house, and it was a decent one for his level. Better than mine anyway. We worked this kid for hours, hoping that the time would pay off.

He had to go for a bit and he logged out, so my friend and I prepared for the next step. When he logged back on, he pm'd asking what we were doing. We told him that we were risking the wild to make an epic video. He actually volunteered to meet us there, and said he was going to bring some stuff.

We knew that this was in the bag, but we had no idea it was going to be this good. He shows up wearing his full 3rd age armour, and the amulet. We told him that he should bring less expensive items, since we were only wearing bandos. He denied and so we went into the level 50 wilderness lever. My friend ran ahead out of sight and came back saying that there was pkers coming (Even though there wasn't, was part of the plan). So we all booked it back to the lever, and my friend hid in an area close by.

So I acted like he needed our help and that was about to die, so I go back through the lever. He follows, I really don't know why though but he does, I'm guessing out of greed of stealing some items, and we run back the way we came.

My friend who is 98 mage, runs up and hits him with some spells. The kid couldn't move, nor teleport because of the level of wildy. The kid attacks him and skulls, we knew our day had come. My friend kills him after a few hits, and he gathered the items and we booked it outta there.

When we get out of the wildy, we decide to look at what he had on him. I kid you not, this is what he brought to the wildy.

  • Full 3rd Age armour
  • Full Armadyl
  • 3rd Age ammy
  • Armadyl Godsword
  • 3rd Age vambraces
  • 600M in cash
  • And some dragon items

We don't know why he brought those items, but we are glad he did. I got a 3rd Age helm, kite, and vambraces. The ags, and armadyl top and bottom. My friend took the rest, and I was happy with that. Those items alone is 200M worth.

I've never lured before, and I feel sorry for the people who do get lured. However, when you can just buy the items off of a site, you don't hold onto it like you do if you actually earned the money. People try to lure my in my bandos, but it took me awhile (of botting :p) to get that money so I ignore them all.

In conclusion, am I happy? Hell yeah! Do I feel sad for the kid? I kinda do, but then again, those items meant nothing to him so they were replaceable. I hope he learned a lesson, but I know he didn't.

Time to pass out, that was exhausting.

Congratulations, good sir. I commend your excellent luck and devious nature :sasmokin:

My thoughts on luring are the same as my thoughts on scamming: if you fall for it, you deserve it. Everyone has to learn their lesson at some point (definitely learned mine when I was a newb and was scammed out of a zammy helm–back when they were still worth a lot), and like most he learned his by fire. You even warned him beforehand not to take valuable stuff, so I'd stop feeling sad for him :p

Nice read, hah.

I can't imagine the look on his face when you killed him.
I remember in my (really) early days when I got scammed of a rune full helm, I cried into my pillow. (I guess this was how I started botting? I'm not sure, but it makes sense) :p

Heh, good job

By the way, I hope you didn't sell the 3a on the GE. Its worth WAY more than is there.

Haha nooooo, I still have it. The shield alone says 80M in trade, so I know it's worth more.

Why would it be worth more than what you can get off ge? Ge price is determined by supply and demand.

Kyle Undefined

2011-12-07 14:25:12

It's EXTREMELY rare, the price doesn't compare to the rarity.

I really dislike luring since it's unfair and it takes away the charm of the game and makes it similar to real life. The guy got his armour illegally and you said he deserved to lose it, I think you you would have been pretty pissed if you lost your botted bandos because someone tricked you.

In the end, the guy was really dumb so I guess enjoy your loot :)

This. Also what makes you think that stuff that was bought via RWT is worth any less than any other methods of getting the items? "He didn't lose anything because he paid real money for it" is a bad saying.

Yeah, I've never lured before, and that's probably my last time. I'm shocked that it actually worked, I can tell that something is a lure right off the bat.

Yeah I know, but I have more money than him anyway and he was the person who killed him. I let him choose what he wanted.

Ge price of third age is correct for the most part I was able to buy pieces for GE market price (Good merch material)

Congrats on the lure, hard work pays off :P

Damn

Very nice. Imo, if people fall for lures it's their fault regardless of whether or not the lurer is doing something immoral. Esp in this kid's case, rwt it all then taking it in the wild like that? How stupid could you get

Holy mother of Vishu.

I remember when Santa Hats were at 200k each, the same price as full runes, and I had the chance of getting one. When I came back to Santas at 100mil, I was facepalming hard.

But THIS makes me facepalm even harder. What in the hell was this kid thinking? Gratz on your luck and horrible backstabbing, for that payout, I doubt anyone wouldn't do the same.

Hell of a nice read.

I honestly don't feel that bad for the kid, survival of the fittest, you have to be smarter than him to survive in this ( or the runescape) world
