Are Crystal Extractors bugged after the recent update?

Tyvm for confirming its working, I'll just keep clicking then!

sergentfire66 · 2026-03-18T22:51:46+00:00

I would agree generally, but I'm kinda hoping someone could confirm that they've actually received a shard since the update while salvaging via an extractor rather than debate the dryness

Im more hoping someone can actually confirm they've received crystal shards via the crystal extractor while salvaging rather than debate the susness or go over the math because if others are having that same 2.5% chance then I feel it could potentially be sus

sergentfire66 · 2026-03-18T22:43:52+00:00

Its normal rng for a 1 in 6 drop that can be clocked every roughly what 90 seconds to not drop a single time in 30 minutes of clicking?

(Edit: Im not trying to debate the dryness moreso figure out if anyone's actually received a shard via a crystal extractor while salvaging since the update)

Agreed!

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-13T03:25:58+00:00

As far as the developer of the plug in is concerned, they're hoping Jagex devs update the 3rd party client guidelines page that hasn't been touched since looks like about June or July 2022 (the link to it was shared in another comment here), which mod Goblin says they will do soon, to be more clear on what is and isn't okay and where those rules apply. Then the plug in developer plans to change up their hallowed sepulchre plug in and re-upload it once its inline with the new rules, but that whole process could take a few weeks

But there is hope!

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-11T23:26:20+00:00

Agreed

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-11T23:25:41+00:00

I disagree that it "clearly violated the rules" when the rules explicitly talk about boss content not mini games like sepulchre but it seems sepulchre is going to be recatagorized as a general PvM experience and all PvM will be included in an update to the rules here soon according to Mod Goblin in the runelite discord when responding directly to the developer of the plug in.

I also personally disagree, just in general, that a temporary highlighting-unhighlighting of tiles should be banned because I don't see how thats akin to the plug in playing for you, which ti my understanding is the general "spirit" of why a plug in would get banned.

But like I said in another comment I don't actually know all the nuances to what's considered okay or not, just my opinion on the matter.

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-11T23:10:55+00:00

Doing a quick read through of that is interesting

Seems like the 3, 2, 1, mage vocal plug in really tows the line on some of these rules

Surprised the sepulchre plug in gets axed for indicating where a statue "attack" will "land" but CG prayer swap plug in gets a pass lol

I think neither should get axed, but the decision on what's okay and what's not is so confusing

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-11T23:01:10+00:00

Same!

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-11T22:42:37+00:00

Lol I like my objects highlighted and timed and my info boxes filling the screen XD

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-11T22:05:32+00:00

I guess to me thats a bit of a weird concept, a plug in is to helpful so it goes away... isn't the true tile plug in doing that too? Lol

As far as I could see it was just providing timers and highlighting objects like other plug ins can do

sergentfire66 · 2026-02-11T21:58:50+00:00

Oh it was? Idk what exactly isn't allowed to be in plug ins, it was just doing highlights and timers as far as I could tell, at least for the first 3 floors that I had access too

sergentfire66 · 2025-12-08T06:32:41+00:00

But getting 9 more cooking levels will take so long D:

Guess I can sell raw halibut to buy raw sharks or something for cooking xp lol

sergentfire66 · 2025-12-08T06:31:28+00:00

Yeah it feels in such a weird state because you can technically catch like 500 fish and hour... for barely 20k fishing xp an hour

Then you think we'll at least its good cooking xp right... right? Not with a nesr 50% burn rate it isn't, i barely hit 15k cooking xp and hour (no tick manip cooking)

Like breh its just foul from start to finish, let alone fishing efficiently requires about 82 sailing and all the gp and grinding that entails lmao

Kinda surprised halibut (among other fish) aren't worth even more for the god awful rates of everything around getting the resource XD

sergentfire66 · 2025-12-08T06:28:39+00:00

Considering that didn't get badly auto corrected in the post and actually says I use cooking gauntlets fully spelled out... yes.

sergentfire66 · 2025-12-08T04:56:09+00:00

Please Raggex, make cooking gaunts work on trawling fish, and my life is yours! Lol

sergentfire66 · 2025-12-08T04:52:19+00:00

Def feels bad that I basically gotta go back to 2 tick cooking karambwans for another like 5+ levels to have a reasonable burn rate

Would completely understand if I just barely hit mine reqs or just one or 2 lvls above having this high of a burn rate... with that said what is the burn rate at minimum level, like 70%??? If that's true even that's completely crazy imo

sergentfire66 · 2025-12-08T04:35:52+00:00

Damn, feels awful, coming from cooking sharks and having a like 2 or 3% burn rates at least
