DFHs in PvP - A bug... or not?

Featured Replies

My thought is that it didn't start as a bug at all, but after seeing the effect on jagex's most beloved rare item they had to do something about it.

 

I completely agree with this post.

If i remember correctly, there are no corrupted DFHs. amirite?

Just another bug that took a while to ween out.

 

Here's a 2 which lasted more then a day since I started playing again about 5 months ago;

 

*When quick chat was released there was the option to say "buying a 9mm revolver" (not sure if it was revolver, gun or pistol)

 

*When PvP came out you could did poison damage when using plain knives (lasted about 2 days for me atleast) I only tested in in non PvP worlds.

 

 

 

There bound to be a few bugs in the PvP system as its a big system.

 

 

 

Jagex was lucky they found it before one of the PvP programmers left. Love the response they gave about the Kill Count and Barrows "the programmer who designed that part of the game has left so we're not entirely sure about it"

I've never heard of mod kathy and while I do think drops of dfh's is bad ok not convinced it is a bug. I imagine it would be easy to take them out of the droplist if they chose to but so far they haven't. I've known mods to be wrong in the past about things. Cat amulets becoming rates ring a bell? (just one example)

So... the best reward from PvP worlds is a... bug? As if PvP worlds weren't unpopular enough. :roll:

 

 

 

+ as if DFH's weren't overpriced enough...

 

 

 

Yeah...There must be some F2P pkers out there now with DFHs. That's awesome :D

Hello,

 

 

 

There seems to have been some miscommunication at the Jagex Castle. Please accept our apologies regarding this confusion.

 

 

 

I can confirm that the DFH, among many other dragon items, can be dropped on the PvP worlds.

 

 

 

Again, we are sorry for the confusion.

That is annoying, for the most part because it means that DFHs will continue to drop and thus fall in price. People are losing millions due to this and hey, people used to lure people into the Wildy using Santa Hats, masks and sometimes even Phats, why don't they make them drop too? You could say that DFH was designed for fighting in, but so are Divine Spirit Shields, but I don't see them being dropped in PvP. They have killed a rare item and lost people millions in the process.

Remember when summoning failure version #1 came out and they posted it was bug that charms were only being dropped preferentially by only a few creatures.

 

Then they had an update where slayer monsters started dropping charms and then they changed it back the next day saying "They couldn't fix it without creating a new bug and it wasn't their policy to replace one bug with a new bug".

 

Of course summoning failure version #2 had a patched up charm drops on slayer monsters, but they never really fixed the 1st bug cause there are still only a few monsters that drop charms at a good rate and said nothing about it from there on.

 

So now everybody is stuck camping on waterfiends or rock lobsters.

 

 

 

Based on that history, I doubt they will ever fix this.

 

 

 

Its almost like I am pyschic.

He just successfully trolled you with "courtesy" and managed to get a reaction out of you. Lol

No it isn't a bug, but if it should happen then it should be a bug (or in every case that's what I think).

 

If you suddenly get 2.1B gp's added to your account then that should be a bug and you should report that, but very very very most likely it will never happen, so it isn't a bug ;).

People, its a bug.

 

Pikmin, it's not a bug.

 

 

 

Just makes me laugh at all those people who take everything JaGex says as truth.

If what they say is silly, then yes.

 

 

 

P.S. - most of what they say is silly.

this discussion is popping up ALL over runescape fansite forums

 

 

 

IMO, if it was a bug, they would have gotten rid of it within hours of the pvp worlds being released.

 

 

 

I say, good riddance, the dfh was overpriced anyways
