GlockenGold Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Is there some sort of mechanism for the random maze to go off. I was trading a ton of ores, probably 50 trades in 15-30 minutes on world 1. After which, I proceeded to tele to Varrock from Fally. However I got sent to the maze. At first no problem, Just had to tell my buyer that i'd be delayed. However, this happened not once, but three times in a row. Everytime after a ton of trades, if i tried to tele from fally to varrock, i'd be stopped and sent to the maze. I know this is a small thing, but does this happen to other people? It slightly irritates me, because It delays me from getting the goods to my buyers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDude Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I know a while ago that if you had a full inventory you'd be 99% guarenteed to get a mime or a maze, no idea if this has been changed now as it was just after the evens had come out. A lot of people just went around with an inventory full of stuff just to get mazes/mimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvl3scroll Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I get the same thing too, but I can have 1 item or 28 items in my invent. I get it at least 2 times a day now. Pretty annoying to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swordwindtrtrtrt Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I wouldnt complain, even if you were trying to sell something, because the maze is the only random with a decent reward.

Yeah, you can get some nice loot from mazes :) Although, when you're in the middle of a trade... It might be a little irritating indeed, and 3 times in a row is even worse.

Italian5kamikaze Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 In my opinion.. the random events are random. :roll: Untrue. It is very easy to predict when you will get a random by doing something over and over again such as killing a monster and then burying a bone youll most likely get a random. Quit.

Barihawk Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I got a maze yesterday just from chatting/dancing. I think it's a time-based random. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numer0_un0 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 It is most definitely a triggered random when you teleport. I get a random almost all of the time when I teleport... you try it. Don't teleport for 30+ minutes and then telly, I guarantee you will get a random. Like... chop 100 yews and then telly. RANDOM EVENT! Kill 50 ankous and teleport. RANDOM EVENT! If you click a lot of command options - not walk here, but attack x npc or chop x tree etc., then you will get a random when you teleport. guaranteed.

flying_death_bombs55 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I used to get maze randoms every week when I was F2P(2 years ago), got most of my money from it too. When you mentioned the Dragon Plates I had a sudden vision of a load of gangsters running around in fancy dress yealling "Grim Reaper in da hood!"

bestsob Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I have a similar problem, but mine is with Leo the lazy undertaker. I mean, come on! How many macroers are out there that kill, collect, and bury bones? Jesus. Every 100 buried big bones or so, I get Leo. It's gotten so bad that I rarely train Prayer anymore. And what do I do every time I get his pointless junk? Drop it. Just out of spite. (and it's stupid as hell). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovecuttingyews Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Random events are triggered after 15 minuted of continuously doing the same thing. So if you stand in one spot for 15 mins and not do anything, then you tele/alch/anything really you will likely get a random event. You should be happy you got 3 mazes...once I got 2 in a row, and because I have the maze memorized I ended up with over 200k in loot. All that from just 30 mins of killing ankous :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill_Thomas9 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Yah, I seem to get them every time I teleport to trade a buyer. I either get that, or evil bob (or prison bob). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexek Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 To all of you characters who stated I am wrong, re-read what I said. I did not in any way state that was the way things were, but rather gave my opinion. I even said in the sentence "In my opinion.." How can you say something like this: Untrue. It is very easy to predict when you will get a random by doing something over and over again such as killing a monster and then burying a bone youll most likely get a random. You said you will likely get a random, meaning you can not trigger it at will. This would falsify your statement. Quite simply, you can't state my opinion as wrong because you can't even support your own. It would be different it I said "Random events are random, end of story, they are not triggered."

SwreeTak Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I have also had times when I have got loads of the same random in like one hour. The last time was when I was merchanting gold armours at Varrock in world 3. I got like 4 molly events in a row! I missed a lot of good deals there :( But I still think randoms are random.

Ceblue Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I remember the first time I got the maze random event, almost a month after I had started Runescape. I was trading with someone West Varrock bank and had just negotiated a fantastic deal. However, right as I opened up the trade window to complete the transaction, the Mysterious Old Man appeared and whisked me away, much to my consternation, especially considering how good the deal was. What shocked me the most, though, was that the trade window remained open! Quickly I placed my goods in the window, hit the accept button, and received the cash I had desperately wanted. Thus, we were able to complete the trade with me in the maze and he in West Varrock. :-s I wonder if they've fixed that yet, or if anyone else has had a similar experience..

Arthu Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I even said in the sentence "In my opinion.."

meili Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Ceblue, hmm nice. You are so lucky! I always get maze when I am tele'ing to trade somewhere. Apparently if you stand around chatting or waiting in bank then try to tele you get a random. Happens to me everytime. :-k The Runescape Wilderness - Meili's Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chavster Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I have noticed that randoms seemed to get stored up. You can be fletching for a while in a bank - or any repetitive event - and the random kicks in as soon as you try to teleport. There must be an event flag checked prior to the teleport event is processed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
