Returned3 Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Did a Level 3 Clue yesterday, reward was: Black D'hide Chaps, Black D'hide Body, 37 Rune Nails and a Saradomin Page 2. At first I thought a 100k profit from that clue was nice, but I ended up buying the remaining 3 pages. So that clue actually made me loose 250k -.- 00:00:0500:00:0400:00:0300:00:0200:00:0100:00:00 Break the Walls down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johannas Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I think they should be rarer to get, but they should reap greater rewards. I mean, i get one every single slayer task... Thank you to tripsis for an awesome sig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElChris Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Not for me. Sometimes I get 1 every slayer task too. Then I don't get one for over 1 month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danqazmlp Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I've had a lvl 3 clue in my bank for months. Dropped all my emote clue items to stop me from quickly doing it, they just aren't worth it really. Want to be my friend?

Woozie Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 That sounds to me like the state lotteries. Their motto is "if you don't enter, you can't win." A better motto would be "if you don't enter, you can't be disappointed." In the state lottos you get about 20-30 cents back per dollar you put in (although in reality you will never see any of your money again, because you would need to live several lifetimes for the chance of hitting a jackpot to be reasonable). Doesn't work that way. OK fine, you'll probably end up dissapointed 9 out of 10 times, but if you didn't play that night you wouldn't have had the chance of actually becoming a millionaire? Just because you get dissapointed doesn't mean it's bad, you can still make 50000x the money you put it so why should you be dissapointed. It all comes down to luck, wether you like it or not it's still ALL about luck, nothing else. One day you win, one day you loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n64jive Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 They are called treasure TRAILS for a reason. Its for the adventure. If it was fdor the money it would be called treasure LOOT. Third age armour would be 1/10th if not even less more of the current value. lol, what? TREASURE TRAILS..one word describing TREASURE(fortune), one describing TRAILS(Adventure)... TREASURE LOOT? Might as well call it Treasure Treasure.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilo Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I won't crush you under a wall of text, because it is not necessary. Just want to draw attention to the fact that Treasure Trails are barely worth doing them at the moment. At this moment I've had a streak of 12 lvl 3 Clue rewards which all have a value lower than 50k. And I don't think this is just bad luck, I think everyone who does clues is being rewarded with a few sharks, a magic shortbow and some firelighters. Most clues take about 20-30 minutes, and I just don't think it's a good thing rewards degraded this much. Back in the past, you had a good chance of getting something fancy, and almost always the reward of the clue was at least above 100k. I myself think it's a pity, because I enjoy doing them, but every time I get dissapointed. Okay, you get my point. But what do you TIF'ers think about this issue? Apologies for bad English, I'm not native. I love your opening statement :P Giant text is worse than boring. My last clue reward was saradomin plate legs. :? Did a Level 3 Clue yesterday, reward was: Black D'hide Chaps, Black D'hide Body, 37 Rune Nails and a Saradomin Page 2. At first I thought a 100k profit from that clue was nice, but I ended up buying the remaining 3 pages. So that clue actually made me loose 250k -.- Err, don't you see how illogical that is? You didn't lose 250k you spent 250k to get the holy book. Losing would be like buying the pages then dropping them. :roll: Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Oscar Wilde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaael Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Well I just did a trail and got a rune kite (g) and some other stuff, so maybe there's a little hope for trails after all :P 5,693rd to 99 Slayer on 10/08/2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheep Tails Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I have never, I repeat, NEVER gotten ANYTHING over 10k. (And I've done alot of clues already, of all levels, I never throw them away.) It's making me grumble, and I've just stopped doing them because I'm always disappointed. Follower of GuthixThe quill is a miracle, for it drinks darkness and sheds light.

If the CORPORAL beast is this hard, imagine how hard a GENERAL or COLONEL beast would be. a corporal is not even an admirable rank in armies that use that ranking system. Yeah, it is a pking minigame, so any arguments anybody makes will probably be biased.The best way this will end :Everybody just says,"I'm not arguing with you anymore, goodbye."The worst way this will end: I don't really know, psychological warfare?

Krazi Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I stopped doing them just because of the quantity I had coming in. An average day of slaying would yield 5+ clue scrolls, and I'd much rather spend my time slaying than running to every corner of Gilenior just to make 10k.

spooferfish Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 If you don't think they are worth doing, then don't do them. It's that simple. They are a gamble, that you always win (unless you buy a bunch of stuff to do it). People are still getting rewards, they're still out there, you just gotta keep doing the clues, over, and over, and over, and over. I'm on a poo-cloo streak right now too. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
