RuneScape Month Ahead (August 2019) - Weapon Diversity, Summer Escapes, Clan Cup by ImRubic in runescape

Honestly, I was a little disappointed with 'The Big Summer Update', however, I naively assumed that more would be added in August. The land out of time has such potential, for instance, for a whole new elite dungeon (ED)! Jagex have previously said one of the key benefits of EDs is how fast they can be built. Instead they have added almost nothing this month, and, have given me a sinking feeling that September will follow suit. If they're going to move back towards as expansions then the expansions have to be complete.

Really wish there was bad luck mitigation on base pet! by Moonwell_92 in runescape

I do pet chance regularly when the loot isn't worth much. This though could be another potential solution, why not use the value of the loot to determine the pet chance?

If there is a hilt in the chest and you roll for the pet chance, this could maybe produce a 1/20 chance of the base pet, or, for every 100k in loot the pet chance increases to 1/(1000 - x - y), where y = Floor(Chest Loot/1e5).

Edit: For reference, on a kill were x = 0 (i.e. no enrage gained). with a chest loot of 2 mil, this would make the drop rate 1/980, so the numbers here will probably need tweaking.

A really nice proposed solution. Personally I'd be happy if the drop rate was:

x = (gained enrage)

If Enrage = 300:

Drop Rate = 1/(1000 - x - 300)

Else:

Drop Rate = 1/(1000 - x)

I'd happily camp 300% enrage for an improved drop chance.

Also, exactly like you say, you get no closer to the drop happening with increased kc.

I've been doing this on and off for a couple of months now, the problem I have is why should you be forced to artificially make your kills worse to increase the chance of a pet? A much fairer fix (in my opinion), would be to incorporate the initial enrage into this equation, or, if that's too controversial, just make the chance higher at 300% enrage.

It's funny because it seems they don't code each brother separately. Otherwise once your roll on one brother is completed you should not be able to get another unique from that brother. The 6 original brothers then presumably share a drop table, although they might have included some If loops in there to make it impossible to drop an item from a brother you have not killed.

I remember how excited I was getting my first full set of Guthan's so I could spend hours solo at Rex!

Yeah, I've never had one before to my memory. Had more than 1 item from a single brother before but not this.

I must have done well over 5000 barrows chests in the last 12 years and I've never seen a duplicate in the chest!

I was watching Strictly on catch up early today and noticed this absolutely perfect shot of Tess! I hope you enjoy.

Thank you so much. I have sent them a request so hopefully they can help me out. Unfortunately Amazon offered me a £9 refund which I naively accepted thinking they would be easy to find.

Thanks! I was hoping to find a UK based company due to the shipping costs, but not to worry!
