While i'm kiling spiritual mages, should i kill them while wearing ring of wealth or while wearing warriros ring?

I'm biased on this matter. I say Wealth. I dont know, I dont really find the "boost" of a ring to help more than the cash you gain if you use a wealth.

 

I have my reasons :?

Yes, as spiritual mages have the same gem drop rate as boots, I can assume they are both considered "Rare" items.

 

And since the wealth increases the value of a rare drop, you will get more dragon boots than gems.

I've always used wealth at mages.

False. The Ring of Wealth only increases your chance of getting a "rare" drop. Once the system has decided to give you a "rare" drop, the actual drop has nothing to do with the Ring of Wealth. I put rare in quotation marks because a drop is defined as rare according to Jagex's numbers, not the actual drop's value.

Not false.

 

 

 

"If thou consider the possessions of an enemy to be like a roulette wheel, then the 'rare' items so coveted by players are located on a second roulette wheel, that will only be spun shouldst thou roll a specific number on the first wheel.

 

The ring of wealth affects not the number which thou may achieve upon the first wheel, but should thou gain the precise number to allow thee access to the second, the ring will make thy chances of gaining an object on that second roulette wheel all the greater."

This clearly states that it does not affect the chances of getting a rare item, but increases the average value of said rare items.

Wow, lol. I was referring to that letter too. I guess I forgot what it exactly said... guess I was wrong.

Yeah, it is pretty cryptic.

I've gotten only 2 boots at spiritual mages through 13+ tasks. One with wealth, one without. Personally I've stopped using one there.

It seems to me that it add more rare item drops to the second wheel if you hit the 2nd wheel square on the drop wheel.

 

 

 

On topic, I would say its a good idea to use a wealth, your main aim is a single rare item and regardless of the way the ring works its going to be helping the d boot rate.

Spiritual mage's def is so low that the Warrior won't help much. If it was berserker vs wealth, it could be a little controversial. But in this case, go with the wealth.

Personal experience on way to 99 slayer (92 wealthed, 99 not wealth)

 

 

 

I found I had like 1/200 drop rate on boots with wealth at mages (1000s of kills)

 

 

 

I had about 1/80 rate with zerker ring (1000s of kills)

 

 

 

could be extremely unlucky, but i find welath sucks at mages

I'd say you're unlucky (no offence intended :-# ). I have done about 4-5 tasks without wealth (instead using berserker), and failed to get any d boots... All of my d boots drops have been with a ring of wealth, and averaged around a 1/150 to 1/175 drop rate with the ROW.
