Bxpprod Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 We could follow history and disallow lamps, TOG and stored xp from being used for [insert period here], because that would stick to precedent and so on. Of course, we'd all like to see this extended to SoF lamps (and pendants), because of "fairness" and other views (personal stances to many which I could speculate on but likely be wrong). However, at the same time, this is a coup for Jagex. For the first time, we see the existence of SoF in conjunction with a new skill. So Jagex must ask themselves. Are we going to stick true to form (which they seem happy not to of late - not to be critical, but as a statement of fact), or will they go with the Jackpot money maker that will simply be a week long Squeal of Fortune promotion with triple xp lamps and extra Pendants for the new skill(s). From a purely profit perspective this would be brilliant because we KNOW that people will fork out cash (Slayer weekend anybody?) for the skills that currently exist, and such, you could be forgiven for thinking the same would apply (possibly in larger numbers) to a new skill.

Bxpprod Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 2. Jake 4426m +8.8mShocking noone this week, Jake continues on his quest to finish off Fishing, hauling in 5.7m xp (with and associated 615k Agility). 1.7m Mining and 784k Smithing rounding off the week thanks to warbands. Recent: 78m MiningUpcoming: 130m Fishing 3. Drumgun 4112m +13mMining dominates gains once again this week for Drumgun, hauling in a solid 8.4m xp. Farming (2.3m) continues to provide a solid numbers, as does Challengeering (+1.3m). Recent: 195m DungeoneeringUpcoming: 150m Mining 4. Jdelacroix 4097m +29mDefence training dominates this week, with Jdela piling on 22m xp. Should the method remain unchecked by Jagex, and he continue, we may see him pass Drumgun for Rank 3 in the next week. Mining (2.3m) and Slayer (2.8m), along with effigies on varies skills chipping in to top off a strong week. Recent: 140m DefenceUpcoming: Rank 3 5. Elvis 3814m +4.7mElvis will hit 200m farming in the next day, likely about 20 seconds before this is actually posted. A gain of 1.4m takes him within 15k of 200m #15. Warbands provided 1.3m xp this week as he appears to shift focus to Fishing (1.2m). An early congrats on 200m Farming to Elvis. Recent: 57m AgilityUpcoming: 200m Farming (#15) 6. Elias 3723m +50k42k Agility xp (Challenge) and 8.6k Strength (small strength lamp from spin). 7.

Auror Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Anyone else wondering if suomi will get both 5.2 and 5.4bxp? On the other hand he might do anything at all. Do you at all read previous posts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yew Treess Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I don't know what will happen if Suomi decides he wants to keep rank 1. Depending on how soon the skill is released, he could get 5.2b before Jake (or anyone else) is even at 4.8b. I doubt there will be enough time between the two skills for someone to bridge that 400m+ xp gap. So here's my prediction: If he decides to come back, Suomi will get 5.4b first, with little serious competitition. If he doesn't, it'll probably be Jake or Drumgun. If Jake and Drumgun end up quitting or slowing down a lot, it'll be Dragonseance. Kingduffy, Elvis, and maybe someone else in the top 20 could pull a few surprises and get there 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. Besides Jake, Drumgun, Dragonseance, Kingduffy, Elvis, and Suomi, the only other top pager that I can envision getting 5.4b is Carcass, but he's a long way away. Agreed completely with this. ***CLICK HERE FOR MY BLOG!!*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superheat Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Ever since EoC came out I haven't been doing combat anymore (apart from the "The World Wakes" quest) but now Jagex fixed effigies, or at least increased there drop rate, I'd like to know what monsters seems best to kill for effigies nowadays. Still the 'Cave Crawlers' or are there better options? To keep this on-topic. Might it be actually worth it to finish off melee at effigy droppers again instead of those granting the fastest pure melee xp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Effigy droppers are probably pretty decent combat xp anyway, as effigy rates are based on combat level and kill rates, and so is combat xp. Effigies are still worth 80ish minutes of skilling (idk exact amount since runespan and challenges etc.) so .1 effigy/h is worth something like 30k melee xp/h?
