July 12, 201015 yr ^ Topic name.Recently I got few Living Rocks tasks and I am amazed how many people just leave those things lieing around ... it takes 1-2 swings to mine them and you can get 300k gp per hour from .. doing literally nothing at all.
July 12, 201015 yr That's exactly why I do. Even scavenge for nearby remains. Too bad there's a 1 minute delay for remains you didn't kill. It does slow you down when you are slaying them as a task, so if you want speedy kills, I can imagine people leave them be. Other data was removed when acoount got hacked...
July 12, 201015 yr Hells yeah. Although I only did half of my LRC task before going back to kuradel and cancelling it. ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢
July 12, 201015 yr I love LRC tasks specifically for this reason. My guess is the slayers who leave it can't mine it. I camped granite for a few days getting 68-73.
July 12, 201015 yr At 90 mining with a dpick it takes me substantially longer than 1 or 2 swings on average to mine living rock creatures. Skipping the long death animation by going to attack another rock creature and transitioning back to them in fortuitous situations, I was still averaging 6~ seconds wasted. The xp rate of the task wouldn't be attractive to me if I mined them. So yeah, I leave em. Interactive dungeoneering floor mapper
July 12, 201015 yr Yes!Although I just go there to kill them from time-to-time, not even on a slayer task, it's silly how many people leave valuable loot on the ground in favor of more XP/hour. It takes a few seconds to mine the remains, even at a sort-of decent mining level. It's extra stupid, come to think of it. Because most of these players nullify their additional XP gains anyway by hanging 'round the GE, even if it is to gear and pot up for the next task. You play for fun, not for a statistics exam. Seriously :huh:
July 12, 201015 yr i always mine them, even scavenging when possible...I'm that cheap! Follow the progress of top players and my weekly updates here: 200M in all SkillsLatest Milestones Chart update : page 602Latest top 15 update : page 6026 slowest skills chart : page 563
July 14, 201015 yr Yes, always. Like Ragmar12345 said, this is one of the biggest reasons why living rock creatures are one of my all-time favorite slayer tasks. Plus, I'm not a powerslayer. I'm in no rush.
August 21, 201015 yr I'm not high enough mining yet. After I get hunter (in 30k exp), I'll powermine granite to 80 then do LRC gold.
August 30, 201015 yr Why should I consider 300k/h good, and no I don't mine them. How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit
August 30, 201015 yr I haven't had them as a task yet, but I hear a good method is if you are using a cannon, to leave the cannon attacking another one while you quickly mine the remains. This is obviously slightly slower than just leaving them, but the loot can make the task slightly profitable, with only a small time loss (Assuming you don't mind doing LRC tasks :P)
August 31, 201015 yr I found the tasks too long a boring, so I don't even do them. Fisher/Woodcut------Me-----Miner/crafter----Stabber----Leecher ^Golvellius must be so proud^
August 31, 201015 yr I can't be bothered so I just leave them. Although it does kinda make it harder to see the drops. :/
August 31, 201015 yr I've never had them for a slayer task, but if I kill one when I'm there, I'm inclined to mine it.
August 31, 201015 yr I definitely mine mine (ugh gotta be a better way to say that) and other people's as well. The one minute timer annoys me >.< Squab unleashes Megiddo!
