Archers' ring

The Archers' ring is one of the Fremennik rings and is dropped by the Dagannoth Supreme in the Waterbirth Island Dungeon. This ring can be imbued at Mobilising Armies with a rank of 300 or more, for 205,900 reward credits, into an Archers' ring (i).

When received with CoinShare active, the Archers' ring will be dropped as 120 Archers' ring shards split evenly among the players and sent directly to their banks. 120 shards can be combined to create this item.

Price Drop
On 19 March 2014, the price of Archers' Rings fell sharply from around 900,000 to 100,000. They then fell to 25,000 and were reported to be 5,000gp at one point.

The cause of this was originally believed to be due to market manipulation. Mod Tyran created a post on the forums on the 19 March at 23:57 GMT stating that they were aware of an incident with Archers' Rings and advised people not to engage in mass trading with these or people could have faced action on their account. Mod Tryan also stated that the safest thing to do for players who had purchased the rings would be to keep them on their account.

On 20 March 2014 at 17:48 GMT, Mod Jane posted on the Item Discussions forum detailing what had happened. The post stated that there had been a human error in a system that they where currently trialing. This system would return items to players which have had their account's hijacked. The error had caused an account to receive millions of the ring accidentally, and that player had decided to take advantage of this by selling them for a very low price. The post also states that the majority of rings which were accidentally brought into the game have been removed.

Shortly after this post, the price of Archers' Rings had risen to around 300k.
