Barrow Question

[Dire_Wolf]

They said in all guides and people have said that KC inside tunnels give you more runes etc.

 

 

 

To be honest i tested that out once, it wasen't much of diffrence in it.

 

 

 

 

 

I did around 100 Kc and around 20 kc, not much diff. Don't remember what i got, was long time ago and i came up with this question when thinking of barrows.

 

 

 

So....

[VjuliusT]

It increase your "chance" to get more runes and items.

[Gold_Tiger10]

It increase your "chance" to get more runes and items.

 

But, not Barrows Item

[Dire_Wolf]

I know that, i was saying that i don't get much runes at 100 kc and at 20 kc...they are all same.

[dippymister]

I think once you get past about 20-30 kc it doesn't really make a difference. If you were to try maybe 7 kc against 20 kc, you might get a difference.

[Inuashakent]

It's not really KC that matters, its the amount of times you kill each monster. So try to kill 1 Spider, 1 Bloodworm, 1 rat, 1 skeleton, and 1 of each Brother.

[gun_hippy]

all the borthers = you maximised chances of a barrows item

 

12+ kills = ability to get bolt racks (atleast i never got with only 6 and often get with 12)

 

 

 

more kills = more runes on average up to bout 30/40 when it doesnt really make the effort worth it

 

 

 

i am -NOT- a barrows expert, only done about 100 runs ever so i might be a teensy bit off, but i think about 12 kills is best

[Roberthree]

past 15 the difference is negligible.

Oh sorry meant "racks" as "items"

[atronic92]

At 10-19 kill count, you should get an item 1 in every 18.1 trips.

 

At 20-29 kill count, you should get an item 1 in every 12.9 trips.

It does not increase your chance whatsoever. That was all a rumour that people have latched onto.

 

 

 

 

 

Satenza did an experiment (and I did one also) and he and I determined Kill Count has NO EFFECT whatsoever on your chances. It is completely random.

 

 

 

 

 

I once did I think a 180+ Kill Count and got 800 Gp.

 

 

 

 

 

Then another time I did a 10 Kill Count and got a triple drop.

 

 

 

 

 

So....

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

 

 

At 10-19 kill count, you should get an item 1 in every 18.1 trips.

 

At 20-29 kill count, you should get an item 1 in every 12.9 trips.

 

 

 

This is not true, it all depends on luck.

 

 

 

I tried getting Kill Counts from 6-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40 and 41-50. No difference. I did I think 20 runs each.

 

 

 

And yes, I ran many many experiments about Barrows.

[aspokaspofkjsopfkapo]

you need a certain kc to get certain items, with 14 kc you have a chance at getting any of the rewards

[Saru Inc]

No, I'm pretty sure I go an item at 6 kc once..

There have been quoted Jagex answers to queries which stand against your claims, but I'm no expert, so I can't say anything definitive from my experience. I usually get a kill count of 12-15(most often 13), and I usually get around 200 profit minds, 50-100 profit deaths, and around 50 bloods or racks. I've noticed that when i go the two items that I have so far(12 kc both times) I got a much larger amount of runes and gold coins...
