Cost of Overloads

Post by Red Anomaly » Tue Apr 07, 2015 4:33 pm

Not sure if others knew this, but I did some calculations with overload costs and found something interesting:

Overload Flasks are not cost effective. If you want 6 doses of overload in a container, use holy overload instead. The cost per dose of overload is currently about 15,000gp, so 6 doses plus the flask puts you over 90k for 6 doses of overload. The cost of holy overload, is 4 doses of overload and 4 doses of prayer restore. Currently that works out to just over 11k per dose, including the much cheaper crystal flask cost.

Bottom line:
Overload flask: 15-16k gp per dose
Holy Overload: 11k gp per dose

Both give 6 doses a container, so always use holy overload instead of vanilla overload, even if you don't need prayer.
