To answer your question at 12:20, mint cakes became expensive at the time because they were being merched by one of those merching clans like "2 lum" or "smokin mils." And when free trade wasn't around, people had junk items like broodoo shields with high ge value to sell them with the mint cakes above ge value for cash like that. The same thing was with rings of stone and some other wierd items.
To be a little more specific, it wasn’t a clan, it was more like one or a small handful of people. The gnome restaurant mini game was essentially dead content, no one at all did it. So someone or a few people spent a good while buying out the entire circulation off the grand exchange. This caused the grand exchange value to sky rocket and they became a junk item used for trades. There was a Reddit post a while ago from someone claiming to be the girlfriend of the main person buying out the cakes. Their claim was that their boyfriend was a mercher and the term mint cake was an inside joke between the two of them, so their boyfriend bought out all the mint cakes as part of the joke. No real way to verify their claim though.
I've faced you a few times in LMS and I just want to say you are pretty good so I'm hopeful that grind isn't too painful for you. Loving the series and it is making me want to complete some of the log as well.

hey b0aty, i just had to say that it is such a blessing to have you back on the video scene again. as a pre-EOC RS player, i grew up valuing the entertainment you provided to such a unique fan base. also, i cannot wait to watch ur LMS grind!!!! :) keep being awesome Adam, thank you for what you do
When one of the glouphire quests (the one where you could go into the sewer in the gnome area) was first released into the game one of the rewards was 1 mint cake. This was a mistake by jagex as it was the only way a player could get a mint cake, which meant they were instantly a rare item because there was a maximum amount of them in the game ( 1 per player only). Hence a few players caught on and started stacking them, the word out out and they became a 'rare'. Then jagex did an update 3-4 months later where Gnome restaurant would reward you with 10-12 of them occasionally ending the rare phase of mint cakes. No idea why i remember this
Seeing you do Gnome Restaurant was so nostalgic; that was my first significant moneymaker when I became a member. I probably spent around 250 hours (sporadically, over like two years) doing hard orders praying for Daerkin or Ninto (if you cancelled an order you, making every menu item to order. (Gnome scarves were a consistent 2m each, which was a fortune to me then.) As for mint cakes, before an update in February of 2010 (which increased their 'drop rate' and increased the quantity given as a tip to 8-10 cakes), they were incredibly rare to obtain as a tip, which made them a good candidate for items to use as junk trade fillers. (So, you were right - they used to be really expensive until Jagex saw they were creating another edible rare item situation.)
I feel you. I was the same, before people realised a 10 reward token would allow you to skip tasks. I was doing this consistently. Probably averaging 4 scarfs an hour by doing Daerkin and Ninto only with skips. At the peak, it was like 12m an hour. Which is insane back then.
Any time you start a video, I always get hyped for it. If I watch these videos in a decade, I'm probably going to feel the same as I do right now since I doubt I'd forget them.
That final laugh made me burst out laughing in tears. I was kinda watching and listening on the side and hadn't noticed either. Great ending! Can't wait for you to be back on Twitch
From what I remember of mint cakes is they had a ge value of like 20k or whatever but when trading against items like divines they were worth many times that. Or when renting out items for 24h you could pay with a mintcake if someone didnt have alot of junk to be bought as the rental fee.
I was able to sell my divine for cash back in that day because I got lucky staking some mint cakes before they crashed really hard and became worthless was a great junk item for a little while another good junk item was Addy arrows p++ from zammy was like 370k junk for the 1 drop of them but rip ur lootshare potential if u got it 😂 Also renting out ags back in the day was like 750k per 24hrs was easy money
mint cakes were used to trade above the trade limit. having lots of them was a rare thing since they were crazy rare & nobody did the minigame back then. Loving the uploads. Keep it up G
The mint cake wasn't discontinued, they were originally incredibly rare, and used basically like platinum tokens, but their drop rate, and quantity obtained were dramatically increased, plummeting their value.
those videos are peckishwhale's level in excitement they gave me wich is something I have never had since the end of that chapter. Keep em going man, fucking great content
mint cake explanation, so basically in rs3 they were quite rare to obtain from the gnome restaurant minigame, since they were quite hard to get they became like a "rare item" of some sort. "Before 1 February 2010, mint cakes were very rare and valuable as it was rare to obtain them from the Gnome Restaurant minigame. They were perceived as valuable items, used in junk trades to buy items for a price much higher than that of the Grand Exchange's. However, on 1 February 2010, the chance of getting a mint cake reward from the Gnome Restaurant minigame was increased considerably. Furthermore, they are now received in amounts ranging from 8-10 rather than individually. With the 10 November 2014 update and expansion to the Elven city of Prifddinas, the Hefin Agility Course offers mint cakes as a common reward, leading to their further devaluation."
Before February 2010, mint cakes were very rare and valuable as it was rare to obtain them from the Gnome Restaurant minigame.

In February 2010, the chance of getting a mint cake reward from the Gnome Restaurant minigame was increased considerably. This was a similar thing to the PHAT junk trade situation but after the update you can get them in multiples from an Elven agility course also so it devalued them.
Really enjoying the series glad your slowly getting back into the swing of things and on the mend. Btw you can put single items of a set in your poh now you don't need full sets anymore
Mint cakes became super expensive when player run games of chance were becoming huge and gambling hosters were running out of places to store max cash. Original RS doesn't have plat tokens so those hosters bought all the Mint Cakes because there was a negligible amount coming into the game, making it semi-resilient to manipulation. Fun fact: Jagex countered this in 2010 by removing common GOC items like the dice bag, and altering mithril seeds, and also by making mint cakes a very common reward from the Gnome minigame, and then in 2014 they made it a very common reward from Prif agility course to further de-value the cakes.
Jagex: Makes mint cakes a rare reward for an obscure minigame Players: *assigns value to a semi-rare item that would otherwise be garbage making one of the many pieces of dead content actually not dead* Jagex: No...I don't think so.
Mint Cakes were used as a junk trade item because they had an incredibly rare drop rate from the gnome restaurant and you couldn't get them anywhere else. There was effectively an incredibly limited supply which made them super easy to drive the street price up. They got up to like 5 or 8m street at one point even though the GE price was like 50k.
Mint cakes were used to bypass the GE value during restricted trade era. You could only trade + or - a certain amount (very small like 5-100k) of what the item was worth on the grand exchange. So if you had a valuable item and wanted to sell it for millions over what the GE set price was you would put up your item and a bunch of junk items to make up the price difference. I'm assuming since no one ever does Gnome deliverys (its even worse in the main game) the cakes were useless junk but held a high price tag due to limited supply. Alot of weird items were used like this, mint cakes were just the most famous. also blurberry special is a trigger word to any RS3 peeps watching like myself LOL.
B0aty, the mint cakes became so popular because there was just the right amount of the item in the game to have it used as a value for trade limit pricing. It was the currency before the game turned to junk trading to beat max trade limits. I was thinking about the days when you pulled up the log for the first time showing the mint cake, but there you go.
Mint Cakes were used to circumvent the trade limit so people could transfer large sums of money, or trade items that were worth more than max cash. Jagex didn’t like that, so they buffed the drop rate of mint cakes and made them drop multiple per drop. They aren’t actually discontinued items, they are just worthless.
Mint Cakes aren't discontinued. You can still get them from the Gnome Restaurant minigame or the Hefin Agility course Edit: Yes, mint cakes were also used as junk items. They used to be as rare as they are in OSRS. But Jagex made them a common reward from Restaurant after the price surge.
Mint Cake is a reward from the Priff Agility course in RS3, so isn't discontinued. Not much was probably known about it and I assume it was merch clans that got on it to have another form of currency given the amount of players with over max cash at the time. You couldn't use the skipping method, and given that only a few of the Gnome Restaurant rewards can roll Mint Cake, it could take several hours to obtain one.
Mint cakes were like NFTs. Artificially blown out of proportion, don't actually do anything, and then crashed quickly when people realized they weren't worth anything.
That is one heck of a grind on Soul Wars. I’m doing the same thing with the collection log but I also got some skills to grind. Few videos back I was ahead but now I’m only ahead by +5. Keep it up
Somebody on reddit one time wrote a story about how Mint Cake was an inside joke to some kind of sexual act they had and so he stock piled them and unintentionally caused them to become extremely rare cuz of the GE limit and free trade. It was just really hard to farm the cakes. and you only got 1. so the GE value was like 25k, but the street value was 25m each and so they were used as a way to trade excessive wealth above the trade limit. Im prety sure u can just buy them from a shop now.
So I feel like the reason why B0aty talks slowly is because he talks for the drunk viewers. I'm intoxicated and I just want to say thank you for making it easy to understand the video as a drunk.
Hey Adam, When free trade was removed there were alot of merch clans scamming people advertising to join them and buy ge out of chosen item, which they ofc stacked themselves first weeks before relesing the info. And with trade limits u could only buy a few of the cakes. Once they relesed the item : voila. You couldnt buy the cakes for a long time. After dumb they became junk for selling royal crowns etc.
Mint cakes became desirable because the GE price during trade restriction was super low but street price was super high. It was a way to bypass the restriction
Taverley POH option on the max cape is the best way to get to the dwarves, this should help you for the upcoming turael skipping for inferno speeds :~)
Funny place the prayer bonus would work, is the thieving place you got sceptres from. ( Been so long since I’d last played, I can’t remember what it’s called ) My 10hp account had a method using 99 prayer, with exceptionally high prayer bonus, to not only protect from melee with the harpie swarms and mummies from the sarcophagus, but rapid restore of health whilst thieving throughout the minigame. It was actually a fun, yet click intensive method. I remember recording it back in the days, for a friend who’d asked to see the method in its glory.
Lately I been liking your vids before I watch them lol. Love you brother great content as always. just went back into playlist , to like all the vids I missed :)
Mint cakes were used to play around the trade restrictions. Like there was the equal trade mechanic, so you could increase the value or decrease the value of the trade, since ge price was much lower than street price.
I think the story goes Someone was buying up all the mint cakes, and eventually people thought they were super rare. Where they were like 2m ea on the g.e. He basically manipulated the market raised the prices and sold em all. Before they became junk trade items.
"I think the story goes" = im about to make something up completely. They were limited in supply and used to trade above the limit back when trade restrictions were in the game. Mainly used for RWT just like sara sets in the BH crater.
Mint cakes back in the day were used for junk trading of expensive items due to their worth (since they were super rares from gnome restaraunt), their value was high in the g/e but not considered "valuable" in a usefulness or investments sense, they were used to get around the restricted trade. They became full blow junk/worthless cause they raised the rates at which you got them and also get 8-10 per time you get them. For example if you wanted to buy a vesta longsword, and the street value wasn't appropriate to regular value. You'd do VLS + difference in mint cakes; the other person gives cash.
"You have a funny feeling like you would have been followed..." - right after in what like under 30 spoils of war so the pet chat do pop and wtw love your grinds always :)
to answer the mint cake thing, mercher was collecting them, and paying insane amounts for them, once supply dried upthe price rocketed since no one cared to do gnome rest for the a mint cake, and the only other one you could get was a once per account from path of glouphrie then removal of trade happened shortly after, so it ended up being a popular junk trade

Same with amulet of accuracy at the time
The only difference being accuracies are F2P, so the costs to "create" them are minimal. For mint cakes, you needed membership for each one.
they ended up being part of "junk trades"

Soul Snores KEKW, Love you really chill vids =P
Perfect intro, perfect outro.
I was like.. Did he just get B2B pet drops!? Lol

First thing that came to mind for the soul cape is ZMI runecrafting .. less time going to altar
Taverley POH option on the max cape is the best way to get to the dwarves, this should help you for the upcoming turael skipping for inferno speeds :~)
The pidgeon comment killed me xD my bedroom is above the garage so i get a lot of pigeons and crows outside my window and im exactly the same xD

Loving the ginger content on the Friday night. Hope your feeling better mate 👍
Just a quick FYI mint cakes are no longer discontinued on rs3, you can get them from hefin agility course :)
Funny place the prayer bonus would work, is the thieving place you got sceptres from. ( Been so long since I’d last played, I can’t remember what it’s called ) My 10hp account had a method using 99 prayer, with exceptionally high prayer bonus, to not only protect from melee with the harpie swarms and mummies from the sarcophagus, but rapid restore of health whilst thieving throughout the minigame. It was actually a fun, yet click intensive method. I remember recording it back in the days, for a friend who’d asked to see the method in its glory.
At the end sitting waiting for him to realize he got the pet back to back 🤣🤣

Mint cakes were used to play around the trade restrictions. Like there was the equal trade mechanic, so you could increase the value or decrease the value of the trade, since ge price was much lower than street price.
I think the story goes Someone was buying up all the mint cakes, and eventually people thought they were super rare. Where they were like 2m ea on the g.e.
He basically manipulated the market raised the prices and sold em all. Before they became junk trade items.
"I think the story goes" = im about to make something up completely. They were limited in supply and used to trade above the limit back when trade restrictions were in the game. Mainly used for RWT just like sara sets in the BH crater.
Mint cakes back in the day were used for junk trading of expensive items due to their worth (since they were super rares from gnome restaraunt), their value was high in the g/e but not considered "valuable" in a usefulness or investments sense, they were used to get around the restricted trade. They became full blow junk/worthless cause they raised the rates at which you got them and also get 8-10 per time you get them. For example if you wanted to buy a vesta longsword, and the street value wasn't appropriate to regular value. You'd do VLS + difference in mint cakes; the other person gives cash.
This series is fire
"You have a funny feeling like you would have been followed..." - right after in what like under 30 spoils of war so the pet chat do pop and wtw love your grinds always :)
You can store your hallowed sepulchre equipment with the mysterious stranger dude in the lobby.
to answer the mint cake thing, mercher was collecting them, and paying insane amounts for them, once supply dried upthe price rocketed since no one cared to do gnome rest for the a mint cake, and the only other one you could get was a once per account from path of glouphrie
then removal of trade happened shortly after, so it ended up being a popular junk trade
Lmao what an ending you got the pet twice within a few spoils of war! Haha
