sir_bubbabob Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 When killing/slaying monsters I will always wear a ring of wealth unless I'm afraid that there is a chance that I might die. It will improve your monster drops and very quicly pay for itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123_x_pac Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I wear a ring of wealth at monsters that drop rune items. Don't wear wealth at monsters that drop dragon items(excluding the shield half).

ilovecardj Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 There are so many things circulating around how RoW wealth works The one that makes most sense is the roulette wheel thing and if you land on the "slot" for a rare item, it increases the chance that its a better item. Other people claim it only increases rune item drops there for decreasing dragon drops at drags People claim with lootshare it messes everything up, (this actually may make sense) and you get less chance at rare drop (ie GWD BOsses). I personnaly use A wealth at metals when i did them for tasks I killed maybe 600-1000 metals total and got 3 skirts 0 legs 0 visage Not sure if this helps or not Dragon Drops: 80+ boots, 7 med, 3 skirt, 2 left half, 2 Spear, 2 2hSlayer: 30+ whips, 4 Bows, 1 Mask, 3 Granite Legs, 1 Visage (Wyverns)Notable GWD Splits: Bandos Tassets: 12, Bandos Chest: 11, Bandos Hilt: 2Proud Slayer of 99 Att/Str/Def/HP/Range/Summoning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judobreaker Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 As stated by the Runescape Magic FAQ What power does the ring of wealth give you? The ring of wealth increases the chance of getting a rare drop when you kill a monster. You will never get items that are not normally dropped by that monster (e.g. a dragon medium helmet from a chicken) but you may get something that the monster seldom drops. Things like Treasure Trail rewards and Barrows rewards, which aren't monster drops, are not affected by the ring of wealth. Seems pretty clear to me...

Xenolith Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 But remember, rare drops aren't necessarily the better drops. It may be rarer for an Iron Dragon to drop a Bronze Square Shield than it is for them to drop a pair of Dragon Platelegs, for instance. The Knowledge Base says nothing about the value of the drops, or how the drops are determined as 'rare' -I'm not saying that Iron Dragons do drop Bronze Square Shields, it was simply a made-up analogy. -Also, forgive me if I'm wrong about the Knowledge Base comment. I was only guessing, since I have never seen anybody quote something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast647 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 In my experience you get more charms with a ROW, and rare drops at steels don't hurt either. Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert_de_Sable Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 RoW only helps with rune drops, so I'd say no. In fact it decreases your chance of getting a dragon drop. [English translation needed] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troacctid Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 RoW only helps with rune drops, so I'd say no. In fact it decreases your chance of getting a dragon drop. I think you made that up. Ring of Wealth increases your odds of getting a rare drop. Dragon drops are considered rare. Therefore you have a better chance of getting a dragon item. If it's between wealth, life, and beacon, I would go with the wealth. If you're maging, the danger should be relatively low so long as you have a sturdy connection and you pay attention, so you should increase your odds of getting that visage/d legs/d skirt. If your connection is shakier though, ring of life is probably a better choice in case you disconnect. Beacon ring's bonus is too small to make as much a difference as the others.

Bad911 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I don't get how this rumor spread, RoW does not only effect rune drops, like who thought that one out? Kinda brainless if you ask me ;) Anyways, i use it everytime, i became a firm believer when a clan mate who soloed the Sara boss, did 505 solo kills. The entire time he used a ring of life, like 9 sara swords, but not a single hilt. Then, out of no thought, brought a RoW, after only 2 kills, he got a Sara Hilt. And the first kill was really good too (i forgot what it was). Should you need evidence, he has made a kill log on the RSOF. Just search "Lord Bane X".

reaper88888 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Ultimately, its up to you, but honestly, I've never noticed the RoW making a difference in my drops... Except that one time at the fire giants when I got fewer rune drops with RoW than I did when wearing a ring of life. Who knows, maybe I just have bad luck.. There is no meaning or truth in life but that which we create for ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abbydog95 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I wear a ring of wealth at monsters that drop rune items. Don't wear wealth at monsters that drop dragon items(excluding the shield half). it doesnt raise the drop rate of rune items it makes rare items have a better chance at droping them. the rune drop rate is just a rumor.
