jaychouf4n Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hey I just want to ask if Cave horrors are good money, I'm bored of tanking aviansies so I want something different. My stats are 75 att 81 str 70 def 83 hp 86 range 53 prayer 73 magic I was getting about 300k-400k an hour at aviansies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I dont think it would be as good as 400k per hour, unless you get lucky. I would GUESS you can get 1 mask every 2 hours, with the occasional clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorofujita Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Almost nothing is 300k to 400k an hour if your looking at small scales of time, the only ways other than avies would be maybe if you got a rare drop from dragons (vissage) to average out to be 300k to 400k. If you want money skilling is better for guaranteed profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaychouf4n Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 So does anyone know the drop rate of black masks? @Thammaron I read that the drop rate was 1 in 150 (its from rs wiki) Given they have 55 hp I'm thinking I'd be able to kill 2-3 a minute with my fury, d boots, regen bracelet and full dhide. Does anyone have real world experience with cave horrors? @Gorofujita I really don't like skilling, I find combat more fun, my skilling levels are all for quests lol.

Blake Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 If its 1/150, then go for it, sounds like it would be better. On my old main, I camped for a couple days when they came out and got about 10 masks and 7 clues, but I dont remember how long it took, drop rate, anything like that.

I've gotten quite a few of Cave Horror tasks and I haven't seen a black mask yet. If it is 1/150 and I am wrong, you could get 1 black mask every ~40 minutes. ~It's Super Effective!

ilovecardj Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Black mask drop rate is about same as whip id say (roughly) 1-400 with wealth, 1/450 without (rough estimations) could be off 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...

I've gotten quite a few of Cave Horror tasks and I haven't seen a black mask yet. If it is 1/150 and I am wrong, you could get 1 black mask every ~40 minutes. A drop rate of 1/150 means that for every cave horror you kill, there's a 1/150 (0.6%) chance of getting a black mask. The events are independent of each other. Regardless if you killed one or fifty, or a thousands, every time you kill one, the chances are the same. So you could theoretically kill a million cave horrors, and just be that unlucky to never get a black mask drop. Or you could get it on your first drop. It does NOT mean that you should get a black mask drop every 150 kills.

Maulmachine Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Well, cave horrors are very very spread out too, it would be difficult to get a condensed bit of them.

stonewall337 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 You guys honestly don't know what you are talking about. I have heard numerous people say there drop rate for black mask is, and it is always around 1-150 to 1-200. I have killed around 800 of them and gotten 5 masks. Others who camp there say they get a mask around once every hour and a half or so. They are low HP, so poor xp. They do drop a fair amount of snap seeds, and crimson charms. Honestly, if i couldn't kill abbies or mages, I would camp horrors. [hide=Drops]Araxxor Eye x1 Leg pieces x2GWD: 5000 Addy bar Steam B Staff x3 Z Spear x6 Sara.

Jeffwilson99 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I'd say 1/150 to 1/200 is a decent rate. I usually get one every assignment. But Id still say aviansies are much better and consistant money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ufosssssssss Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Between Avainsies and Cave Horrors, I'd stick to Avainsies, even if it's boring, it will pay off. No joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaychouf4n Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 The problem with aviansies is that they train range and I want to train strength to about 90 XD Being able to camp is a priority because I really hate having to always bank and go back >< That put me off green dragons. I'm camping cave slimes atm and they're about 270k.h for me. So I don't mind sacrificing a bit of money per hour for melee xp. My slayer is 58 at the moment, does anyone have any alternatives to cave horrors and aviansies?? Training farming atm, it's so boring! (for me at least) I have 13m atm, and I want to get bandos tassets and chestplate because they look cool :D Thanks for the advice guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexek Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I make 800-900k/hr there. I go and sit at the spot where 3 Cave Horrors spawn, and just let them attack me. Once they lose aggressiveness I move out of the area, and then back in. I can't really give much for directions to the spawn point. I just walk North.. I think. I also don't wear a ring of wealth while killing them. I suppose it also depends how fast you can kill the Cave Horrors. I 2-hit them, so I can kill a good number within an hour.

It does NOT mean that you should get a black mask drop every 150 kills. Of course. But do you have a better number you want to use? If you had to give an average of how many kills it takes to get a mask, what number would you use? 1/30? 1/20? 1/500? No. Although it doesn't mean you're GUARANTEED a drop, it is the BEST NUMBER you can POSSIBLY put on this. If the drop rate was 1/150, and I asked you to give me the average kills needed for a drop, what would you say? Of course you would say 150, because that's the best number you can give. ~It's Super Effective!
