lol last 3 trips i got ancient pages :/

Has anyone else got a log on mith dragons?

I tried melee and i could only manage 5 kills on average so 8 would be about right yea. You can't use a storage pet to carry extra supplies in because they can't be taken through the whirlpool only made inside. True though with a bunyip it would probably help me ALOT, guessing about 14/15 kills with one, once i have the summoning level lol.

more slaying added.

Melee is just as bad because people struggle to get more than 5 kills a trip doing melee (unless he is max cbt) I prefer to range because it's the best method for me, sometimes i get a profit or break even but most times it is a loss. Once the helm or vasage comes though then it should be worth it :)

Thanks, was nice to see it until the gift dropped into my inven lol I'm recording every kill with a recorder so when the drop comes there should be a vid to go with it lol

Im closing in on 900 kills now, my friend got a full helm within 80 kills and someone yesterday got a visage right next to me so it's quite depressing. On a side note though, there is not much chance of making a profit when ranging unless you get ALOT of rune drops. I'm on a definate loss here over my kills. Supplies: 100-120 diamond bolts e - 40-50k 6 pray pots - 48k 1 anti fire pot - 2k? 1 ranging pot - 2k? 1 super def pot - 2k 1 terrorbird - 1k? 17 shark - 15k? so thats per trip 110-120k The loot: (based on about 7 kill average) 21 mith bars - 20k 1 - 2 rune items - 25-50k 27 blood runes - 8k? misc rune ranging items - 15k misc items (pots/junk) - 10k so thats 75-100k

Chewed bones got me an anti fire mix potions... woohoo... not lol

Added an action shot, anyone support me with this???

Anyone who wants to join me just add me and come along to drags :) think im on server 53

One day soon i will get something from these lol Gonna have to sell my dragon chain soon to pay for supplies though :/

I just use a terror bird and i'm pretty sure i am losing money right now but surely soon i will get a visage or dragon full (i hope lol by 1000 kills)

I would say it depends on what your after from the dragons, if you are wanting experience then they are terrible, if your wanting prayer then blue/greens are much better, if your wanting dragon drops then killing lower monsters and buying a skirt/legs is quicker. If it's just a visage your wanting then yes irons dragons are probably yor best chance. To melee them though would put you at a loss unless you get dragon legs once per 1/2 trips. With my melee i can kill approx 80 per trip with a ddp++ and whipping (although most people use a dragon scimmy) They are fun to kill though but the annoyance of the drops values since the G.E. update has just destroyed them for me.

Range is BY FAR superior to melle even if you are full 99 across the board. Lately with my ranger set-up i can kill 8-11 dragons a trip and outstay any melee with 99 range. Veracs is total junk for metal dragons of any type... why do you think all guides say "bring anti fire if you want to live" On a side note, when your 99 range there is no point in bringing ruby bolts as you can get a max normal hit of 39 and a special of upto 43 with diamond... ruby hit a 50 once and you take damage. i kill alot more without ruby and extra slot for food too.

Does anyone know if drop rates are player based or monster based on this game? Recently i have been playing a few games which are player based drop rates so im just curious as to how drops work on runescape. Feels like a bit of a waste of time constantly killing a certain monster if everytime you log in you still only have (for example) a 1/1000 chance to get a dragon item.

Can i just ask why you use shark? your profit margin would be much higher with monkfish.

I am picking up the bars, just didn't mention it because its a random amount of how many i can fill up on, either way its still a bit of a loss so far... not to mention very annoying lol 725 kills now.

the only way you would break even is when you get a visage, but it will probably cost 20mil in pots before you get one (i have a 1800 kill tally for steels with no visage6 legs and 9 skirts)

no, if it was a year or so ago without GE and better drop raates then yes.

anyone??

Whats the worst thing that someone can say when you been hunting mith dragons for 3 hours straight and killed over 650 total...? "Woohoo visage" God i hate my luck!

On topic though, can anyone who has got a visage/dragon full post the approx amount they killed and if they had a RoW on when they got it.

Miths don't drop herbs and i've had 3 gems in over 650 kills so i'm gonna do 50 without the ring and see what happens.

Can't pick up all the bars because i kills about 14 per trip 14x3 = 42 bars a trip. I use 6 pray pots/1 anti fire/1 range/1 void spinner/160-200 diamond bolts/2 uses of games neck/18 shark Usually i get a rune item (mace/battle) 20-30 charms 50 blood runes and 10-20 rune arrows/bolts. It's close to breaking even (about 15-20k loss usually) but sometimes i kill alot less if they like to mage me too much.
