If you kill them and it just happens thats fine, its a bug and you did nothing to cause it. If you actively try to find ways to use that "knowledge" to speed things up, as per your original post, then that is intentional bug abuse that you should not be pursuing as you are purposefully trying to abuse the fact its doing something wrong and actively make it go wrong more frequently for your own gains.

I'd advise against pursuing this as it is quite obviously a bug that this can occur and intentionally bug abusing is against the rules.

[hide]Personally I wouldn't think that the Cywir would have a shard of Seren simply because they were in Tariddad and did not follow her to Gielinor. Only in Gielinor did she shatter herself and give shards to each clan group.We did have to go back to Tariddad to get enough crystal to finish her body though, kinda like getting packing peanuts to finish off a box of goods. Also Sy, how did you rebuild Seren? Which crystals did you include? Perhaps she has different opinions regarding eg the gods based on your input.[/hide] Also, [hide]found the obligatory trans NPC in this quest[/hide]

Tangential but related: Following on from my Cywir ideas in spoiler tags up above, I ended up making my first ever RuneLabs idea - Go and read my ramblings and support the Cwyir love! or not y'know whatever....meanies! Edit to add some more on topicness:

Graphical error defintion
Are you talking about the camera facing south? That was an intentional update done to fix a bug until a permanent solution could be put into place. It now actually is the permanent solution. Untill NXT is released probably. It's not though. It's the temporary fix that stops the issue occurring until a perma fix is found. It just so happens that they have not been able to make any headway with a perma fix in java and have instead opted to instead focus on NXT which ought to fix it automagically and if it doesn't they can then work on it in c++ instead of finding a weird fix in java that may prove totally useless once NXT hits.

Also just to note you do NOT need to kill 25 creatures. You only HAVE to kill 1. You are given the option of killing them for 2 crystals per death OR mining/wcing fragments that exchange 3:1 for crystals with an npc.

Dat RNG
I don't think it works that way. That is the way probability works. If each event is independent (ie the outcome of one does not alter the outcome of the other) then you multiply their probabilities to calculate the probability of both outcomes occurring. To give a practical example: The odds a flipped coin being heads is 50%, tails is 50% If you flip 2 coins there are 4 possible outcomes: HH HT TH TT The odds of each outcome is equal, just like flipping one coin so the odds of each is 25% 50% in decimal is 0.5 0.5*0.5 = 0.25 = 25% In this instance assuming each ship had 90% success rate the fail rate is 10% aka 0.1 So for 3 ships acting independently of each other, with same odds, its 0.1*0.1*0.1=0.001 = 0.1%

How much do you pay for cell phone service
Tbf its kinda not surprising America gets boned on cell phone costs - your network after all is A LOT bigger so there is more up front cost for a network to actually cover the entire US and connect you to people all over the US. I mean our minutes and texts in the Europe don't usually include international coverage, which means the area they are 'valid' for is usually about the size of 1 US state or less (depending on which state and which country)

Fate of the gods nihil fight: possible on legacy?
I do hope you exited the chamber to the Mah area - if you log out prior to that it doesn't finish the fight and you have to redo it.
-
How much do you pay for cell phone service
I pay £20 a month for 600 minutes, unlimited texts and 1gb data and I kinda picked a more costly plan cause I use a fair bit. Before data was a thing I paid like £12 a month for unlimited mins and texts.

A question about rune dragons.
Melee and dragons is in general a bad idea since none of them are weak to it, but melee and rune dragons is an utter no-go. Phase one has to be done with dragonbane which means ranging. Phase 2 they fly and can only be hit with range or mage. Phase 3 you can do what you please. Basically you cannot kill them without ranging and taking any sort of gear switch would be an epic waste of inventory space.

17th August 2015 - Patch Week
But they fixed it a week after it launched originally... The gauntlets were FoG rewards and were obtainable in f2p. Last week with the FoG update they moved them off FoG onto monster drops. Mid-last week they mentioned in the stream they recongised they'd messed up by putting the f2p gauntlets on p2p only mobs and they'd put them on some f2p drop tables. This week they are added to f2p drop tables.
-
17th August 2015 - Patch Week
The whole reason they added them to f2p mob drop tables was because they made a mistake in adding the f2p gauntlets to p2p only monsters and got called out on it.

Fate of the gods nihil fight: possible on legacy?
^ To add to the safe zone stuff. Its worth learning which direction each Nihil runs (I can't recall off the top of my head). Cause they each run one way only in str8 lines with one coming from each compass point. This means if you kill the one that is running N to S and then attack the one running S to N you instantly make the 6 paths that run N to S safe from being run into, as long as you are not on the intersections. So pick the order right and you can ensure 3/4 kills are safe from the being run into damage. Where as if you killed the N to S guy then the E to W guy you'd only be able to 100% avoid the run into damage on the last 2 kills.

Fate of the gods nihil fight: possible on legacy?
I'd imagine its doable on legacy unless you are going for all 4 on you at once for the title - cause that is kinda hard even in eoc. The main thing with the Nihils is the right tactics for each 1) If they run into you it hurts, a lot, so try to avoid paths they are running on -this gets easier after at least 1 is dead 2) Melee is probably not the best bet as it makes it harder to move out of some of their specials whilst still dpsing. 3) Smoke Nihil is pretty easy his smoke drains stats, but if your overloaded or similarly boosted you can kinda ignore that 4) Shadow can drain prayer and life and it's aoe attack hits a lot. Very much a hit and run kind of fight to avoid the bulk pf the dmg 5) Blood as soon as it starts glowing stop hitting - it will heal itself and the others if you do. 6) Ice basically a case of start with high adr from a prior easy kill (e.g smoke) so you can go in hard early on and avoid being stunned to many times. Choice of armour can play a big part two smoke and ice use magic, shadow uses ranged and blood uses melee So overall melee armour is a bad choice as 2/4 can hit you a lot harder due to melee losing to magic. Ranged and Mage armour are both decent choices as only 1/4 can hit you super hard - blood for ranged and shadow for mage. In terms of ease ranged gear is probably the best option as with suitable stunning you can stop blood from getting in melee range so it can't actually hit you whilst having good def against the other 3s' attack styles.

Fletching for Iron Men
It may be annoying but I can't see it changing. Ironman is built to be a niche secondary account type mode for the kind of player who has run out of stuff to do on their main and will gladly pay for a second account to be members. It's not like ranged is the only skill to suffer in f2p only in ironman - magic is limited by rc limitations. Ultimately they just aren't going to move an entire skill to f2p just for ironmen - it's not broken you should be aware of what is and is not f2p and factor that in to your plans if you intend to play f2p as an ironman.

Destiny - The Taken King is Released!
I almost got Xone cuz 360 was my last surviving console from the previous gen (wii and ps3 went buhbey mid-uni cuz i didnt use em) but then I was like I'm only doing this cuz I'm used to playing xbox. I then looked at it more objectively. Exclusive titles past present and future that interest me - PS won. Gamer friends who I'm likely to play online with - PS won Cost of 'gold' and the kinda things it gives for free - PS won. Exclusive content in franchises I play - PS won. So I was like erm yeah PS4 (I mean I did get a wii u as well and I now own 2 3DSxl having giving 1/3 away to my bro and I still have a gaming desktop I barely use and a gaming laptop I do use)

Destiny - The Taken King is Released!
My average round at the minute is like 2-6 kills with a KDR somewhere in the 0.1 PS4 for me.

Destiny - The Taken King is Released!
Trudat but pvp xp rates are so much better than doing normal stuff (other than do missions when ur way overleveled for em so they real fast) and chuck in a few bounties on top. Admittedly I've only played control thus far but Destiny pvp does seem a bit eh in terms of maps and core mechanics in some ways to me thus far. Compared to the likes of Halo or COD the maps seem quite small and cramped so there is barely any scope for strategy gameplay moves because you just run into people at every turn. And it seems to lead to limited diversity in the maps too they all seem to consist of wide open spaces with a few hidey spots and a billion ways enemies can apporach and cramped corridors with the whole map lacking much in the way of vertical scope. Like where's the really high, hard to claim vantage spots where a sniper can wreck havoc to much of the map? Where's the cover heavy wide spaces where you can really lure an enemy in and emerged behind them for a kill? Where's the spaces that give a real chance to sneak around and pincer enemies before they even realise whats happening? etc. Plus the respawn mechanic seems a bit lame - the randomness is nice vs camapable spawn point for each team - but seriously is respawn me like right in front of the entire enemy team? Good game survivla chances, good game. I mean its not like bad bad and I'm not a huge fps player so mhy views could be totally against the 'norm' but of what fps I have played these maps just seemed to be lacking in ways to encourage diverse play style

Destiny - The Taken King is Released!
My skills at Destiny are beginning to improve I think - Made it to level 10 now, deffo a fan of the sniper over other secondaries thus far and started to get borderline not awful in the pvp stuff (aka I don't insta die whenever an enemy finds me, I can successfully kill on the odd occasion and I can 85% of time figure out where enemies are coming at me from) I get the feeling I may prefer something other than sniper when I make a hunter and titan, but so far for warlock I seem to fair much better utilising the avoiding fighting by sniping tactic where possible.

Destiny - The Taken King is Released!
Yeah thats the one, where u open the array thingy then theres a bunch of thralls and a knight and what not. Finally got myself a sniper rifle and I'm happier now, suits my play style much better to be able to slaughter from a distance instead of being forced to get quite close all the time.
-
Destiny - The Taken King is Released!
I'm level five and stuck on a slightly later story mission than when I got stuck on mission 1. (I mean like I know what I need to do, need to do some bounties/patrol stuff for levels or bug my friend into helping me cuz I keep getting swamped by thralls, just a matter of finding the time to do it) Strange coins aren't even on my radar yet, let alone getting 17 b4 xur goes away.

Dev Blog: QP master cape
Attain Quest Cape upon completion of all quests. Once a new quest comes out it untrims the cape. Needs to complete newest quest to re-trim the cape. I think the point was his sentence structure was that of the idea of x is y, but he only went as far as the idea of x.

Destiny - The Taken King is Released!
I would be more excited but lol asif I have strange coins.
