I made a solo Bandos blog, where my goal was to achieve a hilt but at same time achieve good solo skills. So here's how it went. Let's with the drop log. [hide=Drop Log]1. Rune 2h sword 2. Coins 3.

Super restore(4)[/hide] Move on to the screenshots, i decided at beginning to kill Spiritual mages for kc but it went to slow but i did get something out of first trip: Here's Bandos: Then i got a Godsword shard 3 that i forgot to screenie. But soon i got another of same shard: Then guess what? Another.. Videos [yt]FYdiEQZP5nQ[/yt] [yt]V87sOyzEl5A[/yt] Total Loot I am disappointed, the great thrill of it is to get at least get something good out of it other than a cheap item but that did not happen. Hope i have better drop rate and luck in future...

Thanks for all the help (Compfreak, yes you are a freak!) and Romy. I'll try to come up with some solutions and also update suggestion.

The card revealed something. Kree is not a female, it's a male. Everyone says "She" when i go GWD. :roll: Also who's the demon: Thammaron!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aside from cards being totally useless, the drawing/art is very good. I like it :ohnoes: Wish they made wallpapers similiar to the cards. Just look at the card of Zilyana. Very nice drawn, wish game was near that graphic.

Track players in the room? What do you mean? So if someone else is in my DKS room I don't get the benefit of my solo kills? What if someone has lowered bandos before I kill them, as happens very frequently with soloing? Stop pointing out the problems (Though thats good), instead help me get a solution.

Well that was a possible solution. I suppose you need one that can track players in the room somehow.

The prices of all boss items come down thanks to teams on your worlds, soloers who can only get a spot on non-theving worlds get gypped as the prices of their items fall. Possible solution: You get normally 5% higher chance of a rare if you "Loot" a corpse. But if players group together in teams, the % will fall down to 1% higher chance of a rare. How to find out if team or solo? Based on time taken to kill a boss.

Then the price of all those other things become restricted. Your punishing the soloer who camps DKS, KBD and KQ, and the person with a slow internet connection for any single combat spot. Why make the game less skilled and more dumbed down, "just set up a cannon at DKS and earn monye" oriented? Most high levels I know, including me, want to move the opposite direction :-# I don't understand that well, can you rephrase that in a way that i can please?

I was talking about GWD only, but it's a good question. I'd say only GWD should be solo restricted.

Nope. I think Thieveing worlds are going to be completely overrun by teams, and a much higher drop rate coming in from half a dozen worlds 24\7 by the top teams and players as fast as possible would have a significant effect on prices. I said it will be solo ONLY. Meaning no more than 1 player should enter boss room at time.

It's the soloers who won't be able to get a world, and the large teams that will. Why make soloing that much harder and team killing that much easier and profitable? It doesn't make sense to me; soloing requires much more skill and should be rewarded, not punished :| Solo means killing boss alone, and you think some people won't do that on Thieving worlds? And even so, how big difference will taking two worlds and turning them into "Thieving" worlds matter? It wont have big impact. Soloing isn't that impossible as team. Each player can kill 1-4 bosses, and that don't take long to wait for. Average kills 1-2.

It should be Solo only, but i am presenting the idea. I try to make it better to, to make sure it dont affect prices... But it's hard, but this can work. So what if it affects prices, who says it will make a big impact? I don't think many players with high combat will think "I will get 99 thieving so i can get rich at Thieving worlds!". Time spent on getting 99 thieving can be used to get rares...even so. The % should be very low, but yet higher than usual drop rate. This will definitely be a good update, it's a matter of how you deal with it to prevent bad things like huge price impacts. The % of how much higher chance of a rare drop using thieving, should be around 5% i'd say.

That could be true but let's look at how this will be: 1) Higher chance, BUT still you can fail looting 2) To kill bosses you need good combat, and i can imagen 99 thieving to loot their corpses. Everyone has this?NO. 3) Looting corpses will only give reward to 1 player, and not all. So this is solo thing. Even so, you got only around 1 minute to loot the corpse before it disappears. Even if you succeed, it's not like it will be 100%,75%,40%, or even 20% higher chance of a rare. It will be a bit higher than usual, but not a massive %.

What do you mean by that Way too many people in the worlds. Who doesn't want a higher chance of a better drop? Not everyone will have very high thieving level to loot the corpses of bosses, more importantly the looting can fail and result in NO REWARD. So if many players go on Thieving worlds, what does this mean? Less players on normal worlds, making it a bit easier for boss hunters!

Is there a need for "Mudkipz" crap? This is Runescape, not Pokemon. Atleast leave pokemon out of this thread's title. Jeez.

Is there a reason why it can't be good? Imagine slaying daganoths with a cannon, and still trying to get those snap seeds/blue charms... What about not doing this on slayer tasks/monsters? or only at high lvl monsters (bosses, etc.)? This way of thieving will make the skill fun: 1) There will be only 2-3 "Thieving" worlds, where if you kill a monster their corpse will remain and not their drop 2) High level monsters are high level monsters, you need good combat to kill them and good thieving to loot their corpses. What you expect it to be, thieving level 1 and combat 50 to kill a boss? 3) By looting monster corpses using these worlds you will have a higher chance of obtaining a rare drop than if you kill them in a normal world. You fail or succeed where failing leads to no loot. Through this it means 1) Kill monster 2) Loot it's corpse. So combat will be important to earn on this.

Females are not underepresented in the game. For example, females have taken over the skills that is non combat and also have some combat levels. Where as us males, we pretty much stick to combat. Atleast i do

2nd 99 i missed. Did it on purpose...JKING. Congratulations, a great skill to get 99 in. You did very good. Now go to Armadyl with that and you will notice less damage :thumbup:

What do you mean by that

If you fail looting a corpse you will not receive any items, even if the items are usually dropped 100%. Thieving corpse has higher chance of a rare, therefor it would be to good if you got the items that was 100%.

I did not think of the prices. I don't know how to solve that, hope someone figures out a way. There really is no way to implement this suggestion without prices being affected. A second chance to get rare items means 2X more rare items coming into the game (at least), and more items coming into the game means lower prices. It wouldn't be 2x. He said that this would only be available on certain worlds where you ONLY get to loot corpses while the rest ramain how they are. Personally, I figure that, with the chance to fail, the increase in your chances of getting a rarer drop could be, with a little work, balanced so that prices aren't affected very much if at all. Also, here is my suggestion on possible theiving level requirements for different lvls of monsters (this could also be a way to help to balance the increased chances of rarer drops and the numbers are, of course, up for discussion): |-----------------------------| |Theiving | Highest theivable | | lvl | monster lvl* | |-----------------------------| | 1 | 10 | | 10 | 20 | | 30 | 40 | | 50 | 70 | | 60 | 100 | | 70 | 150 | | 80 | 225 | | 90 | 350 | | 99 | all | |-----------------------------| *This is the highest combat level that a monster can have so that someone of the corresponding theiving level can loot its corpse. For example, I have 72 theiving, so I would be able to loot the corpses of all monsters with less than 150 combat (if anyon can think of a better way to label this column just say so and I will change it) while my imaginary friend, Bob, has 93 theiving, so he can loot all monsters with combat levels under 350. As for theiving exp, I think twice the monster's combat level sounds about right. That sounds good.

Just so you know Wioneo Saradomin soloing is quite tense. It's rewarding i am sure of, but it needs you to be focused. Anyhow you can get alot kills the more experienced and focused you are and get.

I did not think of the prices. I don't know how to solve that, hope someone figures out a way.
