Abraham1123 Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Hi, For the past few days, I've been having very bad luck at steel dragons. I brang 8k fire bolts and went in and came out empty handed. Normally I get 1-2 legs or skirts for every 8k. Some other people told me that the drop was raised.. is this true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Raised? Wouldn't that mean there were more?I think he means the amount you have to kill to get a drop raised...sounds like you were lucky to begin with I hardly ever got those drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Titan Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 if you normally get drops and you havent now, yet people say its been raised i don't see how this makes sense :-# Ex-Wilderness GuardianEx-Solace Retired from F2P clans indefinitely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebdragon Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Hi, For the past few days, I've been having very bad luck at steel dragons. I brang 8k fire bolts and went in and came out empty handed. Normally I get 1-2 legs or skirts for every 8k. Some other people told me that the drop was raised.. is this true? I didn't get a single pair of D legs or skirt in over 25k fire bolts.

onauric Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 It's all about luck. Like a month ago I spent some time on abby demons and got like 15 whips and now on this week I have spent almost same time there and got 3 whips.

Achilleus Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 I kinda know what you mean...I have fought 100 steel drags...and im only getting rubbish rune javelins, coin and bloods :-s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hohto Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 I kinda know what you mean...I have fought 100 steel drags...and im only getting rubbish rune javelins, coin and bloods :-s At my iron dragon chart I got these percents for those items: Blood runes (15) 176 17,48 % rune javelins (4) 206 20,46 % 270gp 151 15,00 % 550gp 80 7,94 % 990 gp 6 0,60 % 3000gp 1 0,10 % First drop, then how many times and the last is (if you couldn't find it our yourself :P ) how big percentual odds you got. As steels seem to share the same drop ratios for bloods:runejavelins:coins: runite items:etc, it's not a wonder you feel like getting those drops all the time.

WildxYak Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Just because you haven't gotten a pair doesn't mean you can jump to the conclusion that Jagex lowered the droprate. HE didn't. He said other people said that and due to his last trip he is curious about it. I personally haven't been there for a long time but a clan friend went yesterday and got 2 skirts from Steels which is about average for him. 99: Agility 28/12/14|Thieving 20/03/15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDude Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Pfft, I've killed THOUSANDS of irons without anything. Killed Hundreds of steels since my last skirt too... Had 8 skirts to 2 sets of legs... The legs came before skirts were even made... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbalking Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 don't see why they would need to raise the drop rate :uhh: but as Jagex will do the most pointless things i wouldnt be suprised if they decided to raise all the drop rates just for the hell of it and then as usual not tell us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headshot007111 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I got d legs from steels in under 10 kills \ But the 300+ irons before that gave noob drops. ~Guide to Solo'ing the KBD~ 99 Cooking | 99 Firemaking | 99 Attack | 99 defense | 99 Hitpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraham1123 Posted April 22, 2007 Author Share Posted April 22, 2007 Just because you haven't gotten a pair doesn't mean you can jump to the conclusion that Jagex lowered the droprate. I never stated that I did. I'm curious as to whether anyone knows. I didn't base this on my own experience, but to multiple accounts from people.
