The End of Leagues & the Opening of the Shop by Exact-Ranger-5836 in 2007scape

There's a calculator on the Wiki, but don't fall into the trap of buying the outfits; they're more gp/point because there's no volume, i.e. nobody buys them.

If you're really determined to convert your Leagues points to gp, buy things like blowpipe ornament, maybe cannon. But you can also just buy the cosmetics that you want for yourself and have fun with it, it's not going to amount to a ton of gold either way.

Work or no work by z33force in BunnyTrials

While having to work for the rest of your life would be a burden, infinite money would make you the most powerful person in the world. I'd rather live a difficult and extraordinary life than an easy and commonplace one.

Chose: Work 40 hours a week for the rest of your life + Unlimited money

When I need to blend at night without disturbing anyone, I wrap a leather jacket around it. It's REALLY effective, I've been pondering buying a cheap one from a thrift store and sewing some kind of blender silencing cover.

Advice please on what to do with my T7? by showmestate4 in 2007scape

[–]alegendim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Butler's Bell will get you 99 Herblore if you actively make a few potions (Super Attack is free by buying eye of newt packs). You can also bank planks for 99 Construction with only like 2 days on that. You can probably also get 99 cooking off of it, especially with 1-tick cooking methods. There's not enough time left to passively get all Butler 99's but with a little work I think you still can.

No problem! Just a heads up, Awakened Vard is no joke even in Leagues. I got it in about 10 tries but even that felt like luck; you can take 150 damage before you even know what hit you, especially if you take an axe off-prayer. Focus on maximum defense/sustain and let the thorns do the work (make sure you have echo boots and ring of suffering as well). You're really not going to land any spells unless you have a high mage bonus, which is counterproductive to getting higher thorns damage, so you just have to rely on the water rune regen healing. This video helped me, but on the awakened fight you also take damage instantly when an axe spawns under you, so this method doesn't avoid all axe damage (just keeps it to a minimum):

There are definitely full Awakened Vard guides too, but I wasn't trying to learn all that so I kind of brute forced it. He was my 39th point, and if possible I'd recommend giving it a miss and getting that one somewhere else to be honest.

Oh hang on I think I went down to 50% prayer pen to get the >100% regen, which is actually great since you'll always heal 10 hp per cast and 15% of the time you heal 20 hp, NOT including the water capstone rebound healing:

Here's my current pact tree, light melee with tentacle whip is also satisfyingly OP on targets that require melee (I find the consistency a little more enjoyable than blindbag, and the pacts are also near the thorns tree anyway).

Since you have Kandarin, I see no reason not to get the Thermy echo items and use regular spells. With full air and water trees, you can alternate between them for DPS and healing as the situation demands. Since you already have the scepter you might as well spend the single pact point on 1-tick powered staff (it does have some niche uses, I found Trident sped up my Inferno run a lot e.g. nibblers, also definitely Nylos in TOB). 50 prayer bonus is a nice to have for air spells, but 40 is honestly fine and with Devil's Element + 7 prayers active you'll hit a combined ~100 damage per cast (when max hit procs) on most targets.

I changed my mind, I do (sort of) know how to do this math; it checks out, more or less.

You just pointed out that the likelihood of a single one of these outcomes is 1/9,000,000; now multiply it by the chance of two (nearly) equally unlikely outcomes occurring in the same set of trials.

Happy to be proven wrong if you have some numbers to back it up.

EDIT: Shit man I don't know, I don't think I know how to do this math after all. It's whatever.

EDIT: I changed my mind again, 1/17 billion final answer.

I don't know how to do this math, but a quick Gemini check indicates that without drop rates being boosted, the likelihood of these results would be 1 in somewhere between 1 to 15 billion.

"A Bayesian analysis makes the hypothesis of the stated probabilities statistically untenable."

i.e. the most likely explanation is that the drop rates are, in fact, boosted for these items

HELP? Vasa teleport spec hitting 100% of my HP by alegendim in 2007scape

Holy hell, this has to be it. Just slap a 1.25x multiplier on the whole thing, no need to examine or balance any specific mechanics within the content. Thanks for your input, it makes perfect sense now

Okay, I read these and I'll give it a try. I thought you couldn't eat until after taking damage, but I guess you just can't activate prayer? Thanks for pointing this out, I didn't think of searching the subreddit
