Lately i have been noticing the decrease in decent slayer rewards being dropped (granite mauls, black masks, etc..)

 

 

 

I'm trying to figure out if they did in fact nerf the drops, or if I'm just having a spell of bad luck.

 

 

 

Any help or similar cases would be appreciated \

Seems like a lot of people are having bad luck with slayer drops. :x

Bad luck. Nothing else.

I'm not going to the argue with me having bad luck (best drop in 4 thats right FOUR years is a black mask), but I'm not the only one. I have a friend who has done 9 abby demon tasks and no whip, as for me 2 gargoyle tasks (124 and 146) with no maul, also when black masks peaked at 1m, i spent close to 8 hours down there with nothing, Before i used to be able to average a mask a day (still not sure how that worked out).

nothing is averaged every kill you have the same slim chances of getting a drop. and 2 garg tasks is nothing, i did 12 150+ tasks before my first maul

Normally I would agree with you, but there are somethings that I can't explain. Back when I first started ranging too long ago, I spent most of my time at Cave Horrors. I was pretty excited for the drops of black masks. i could spend an hour there and get 2 mask drops, come back the next day, be there for 8 hours and and get none. I could also go there spend maybe 2 hours every day and get a mask drop, The same kind of trend continued for some time up until recently, where i have been going for days with no mask drop.

7 Whipless tasks....hmm....I'm not saying they did nerf, but if they did it would be understandable, considering the old PvP brought a BUNCH of slayer items (Whips/D boots/Mauls...)

I've always had terrible luck compared to most people... Nothing is new for me.

They wouldn't have nerfed it, most likely just "bad luck" although it'll pick up, people have those days they have a streak of good luck.

 

 

 

Try not to think of mauls on gargoyles, whips on abyssal demons, you'll find not only the tasks go quicker but when you do get one it won't feel as bad as counting the monsters you've killed.

At least once a month someone claims that they have nerfed monster drops :?

 

 

 

Its just bad luck. They most likely wouldn't nerf a monster after a few weeks of its release.

There was a long thread on the RSOF about this where Mod Emilee checked and double-checked with the mod responsible for launching updates, and she reported that their drops haven't been nerfed.

 

 

 

If you flip a coin 10,000 times, there may be period where you flip 12 heads in a row or 20 tails in a row. It doesn't mean your coin is damaged. To further support the claim "it's all in your mind," Zarfot posted on that thread I mentioned and said that he logged every abyssal demon kill he did over the course of 85-99 slayer, and his numbers came up to around 1/446, which is what most people estimate the whip rarity to be.

your bad luck is just a feeling. Unless you come up with drops log of decent sizes, there is not much discussion value in a feeling.

Well, for me I've noticed lately an INCREASE in better drops for me. But then again, they're not really that big (ie. rune scimitars, 2handers, b axes).

It's not nerfed, people go on streaks of tasks without look, I had an 11 task dry streak with abby demons, on the 12th I got 4 whips which still averages for a whip every 4 tasks so ;)

Just bad luck, I'm at 6 whips from 7 tasks and 4 ammys from 6 tasks. Before that I was 9 tasks without a whip

All these posts about nerfing do my head in when it's clearly jsut bad luck.

 

 

 

I mean sheesh jsut suck it up, I've been playing my account for a gd 5 or 6 years now. Aside from a couple of barrows items and a d chain from doing barrows runs (whihc aren't technically drops) the absolutel best drop I have EVER had is a rune large

Which items would you expect to get with those stats then?

 

 

 

On topic: I always try to think it's just bad luck. Either that, or Jagex hates me.

Now, if more than 80 percent of the players who are at 85+ slayer were getting worse drops from one partcular slayer monster(s) then you could say or query that they nerfed the drops. Otherwise, highly doubt it :)

Well, you can't always expect everything to turn out the way you want it don't you? It's all about luck.

Well I can kill pretty much all the monsters that have the converted drops.

 

 

 

Eg KQ, KBD, Metal Dragons, GWD Bosses etc. The only few I can't do are the high end slayer ones such as gargoyles or abby demons.

Half a year ago I had 15 abby tasks without a whip drop in a row.

 

 

 

[cabbage] happens.

There is no reason why Jagex would all of sudden nerf slayer drops...

Bad Luck

 

 

 

I've gotten the slayer specific drop from the past two slayer monsters I've had (gargoyles and infernal mages)

I got back to back dragon boot drops yesterday :thumbsup:

 

 

 

It's all just luck though
