First great loss in rs -_-"

This is a rant, and im seriously pissed of at Jamflex atm..

 

Okay, so I was in a rush because it's bonus exp weekend, and i wanted to get the most out of it. I finished my twentieth task at sumona and got 60 points. Then i traversed to the shilo village slayer master, hoping for some kind of dragon slayer task, and i got 61 iron dragons :)

 

I confidently put on my new battle robes, barrows glove (burn in hell), infinity boots, glory, zammy cape, and unholy book (took some time before i noticed i needed the anti dfs, sadly too long). Then i went to the iron dragons, ran to the most southern spot, i shouldn't have done that, when i got there i was hit for damage, i just wtf and ate my shark. Of course i forgot my Ectophial in the hurry, I always bring it, but I didn't this time. I knew there were no safespots, and I didn't have any teleportations but ring of life, but that didn't work either. Protect from magic didn't work, which i thought it would. And of course i forgot about protect 4 items prayer.

 

So I ran past some guys and then north to try to escape, then i got hit 26 by an steel dragon, and 18 for the last hit when i was at the black demons. When i died, i had no names to chat to, but there were still people that saw that i was severely damaged. I was so stressed, ran to the bank and got the stuff i needed, i was fairly quick even though i was nervous if i would make it. I ran into the dungeon, probably a new record for getting into there, when i got the summoning obelisk, my grave disappeared. But i still thought that the items would remain (like if you drop something) after the grave disappeared. But the disappointment hit me. No items were lying around. And no grave of course, no one of those who were killing irons, cared to see if i died, and repair or bless my grave.

 

When I got there I was 10-20 seconds late, and lost my battle robe bottom, 9-12 mil street value, Battle hood, 1 mil street value, infinity boots, 1 mil and some runes for waves, probably 1 mil. And what i was most shocked about, was that my 100k barrows gloves protected over the lets say 10 mil battle robe bottoms! I was utterly let down. So now i have to delay my 70 prayer which i was looking forward too, and my bursting which my friend was about to teach me today.

 

Why are the alch values so silly? and why does the items disappear right after the grave dies, and why didn't i purchase a better grave? Or why didn't people care to check my grave, i was even on w42, were people are nice. I wonder.

 

Hopefully, my friend will be able to help me get some new battle robes. and trade me some runes now and then eventually. But its still alot of money gone forever.

 

Discuss the conclusion, and please help me come up with some fast moneymakers except picking mort myre fungus (I earn 700k/hr that way, but it is extremely tedious)

Dont forget, Barrow gloves didn't logically protect over 10m robe bottoms. Street price =/= Value.

 

Shouldn't be too hard to get new robes, I've seen heaps of TIF'ers and 'scapers sell them for normal price at times.

Items disappear fast because they are "dropped" and start the disappear timer as soon as you die.

The gravestone holds them there for beyond the normal limits and thus they vanish with it.

 

Also meh buy a better gravestone, brimhaven metals are easily reachable with time to spare if you have the best gravestone. Heck with the best gravestone unless you only have 1 armour set and thus r screwed you can get back to 99% of places on rs with time to spare. The only real exceptions are GWD Boss rooms and the DK dungeon

4 minutes?

Jeeze what did you do walk the whole way?

 

I mean how many routes to the place do you want?

 

Getting there quickly you can:

Cabbage Port > Ship

Ardougne Tele > Ship

Ardougne Cloak > Ship

Spirit Tree (reqs farm)

House Portal (especially after love story)

Glory Amulet

Fairy Ring > Fisher Kking Realm

Fairy Ring > Thzarr

Nature Teletab

Gahrak

Tai Bwo Wanni Tele Scroll (that was one of the new tt ones right?)

Karamja Gloves > Cart

 

With all them its easily like a 3min run tops.

So why are you annoyed at them due to your own mistakes? Please explain that as I'm really confused.

 

It makes no sense that some barrows gloves protect over battle robe bottoms, which i weren't aware of in the rush. And magic prayer should protect you from dragonfire and the bonus exp weekend most likely made me forget the ectophial ...

I ran to the bank, then i grabbed a ardy tele, sharks, antidfs, ectophial, hatchet. teled, ran south to the boat, ran to the cave, first chopping took like 10 seconds >.< ran the quickest route, and when i got through the last chopping then grave disappeared. Could proably have done it faster, but it was the fastest method i had in my mind, and i didn't have time to think about any faster one.

Protected items go based on high alch value which is based on actual material value and stats; not on street value. Nothing to do with Jagex if you didn't check what you'd lose on death.

Mage prayer does protect somewhat, but not alot and it only has a chance to protect not 100% like pots and shield. You didn't bring gear, not Jagex's fault.

You rushed and forget a basic bit of gear, not Jagex's fault.

 

It was your choice to rush, Jagex didn't force you.

It was your memory that forgot gear, Jagex didn;t stop you taking it.

It was your laziness/confidence that meant you did not check items kept on death and died, Jagex didn't force you to use 15mil of street value items that are worth v little in normal value.

 

Basically all your errors and your mistakes, nothing to do with Jagex.

But I suppose as with most ranters you are too amazing for a mistake to be YOUR fault and therefore it must be Jagexs fault that you messed up something that has been that way for years.

Magic protect prayer only works again "normal" dragon breath, not from metal dragons to stop people being able to kill them with things such as veracs. It's been like this for many years now. Battle robe bottoms were worthless for the longest amount of time and on top of that Jagex have always used alch values over GE/street values. Again, it's your own vault for not checking how much barrows gloves were worth (which should be fairly obvious, seeing as you have to buy them from a shop). Barrows gloves have a high value and not much (normal) things protect over them, it's something everyone should know.

Totally, but it's also the other monster hunters fault, as they easily could have repaired my grave, when i got there one dude stood right next to where i died, and he didn't respond to chat, that annoys me...

I knew it, but i forgot in the rush. It's still quite stupid that you cant choose what to save, but i suppose that whats stabilizing much of the economy at the moment

No... It might be hard for you to acknowledge this, but it is not their fault you died and took too long to get back to your grave.

Perhaps they did not notice, did not have the prayer points, or simply didn't care, but it's not that smart to rely entirely on people saving you simply because they happen to be there.

 

Remember, it is not their responsibility.

 

I don't quite understand how it is anyone's fault aside from your own.. Sorry.

You lost any credibility at this picture, and the rest of your rant sums up with you blaming Jagex for your own idiocy.

How did you die when all the damage you got hit for was in the double digits?

 

In all seriousness though, you were stupid enough to wander in there without an anti-dragon shield. Jagex shouldn't have to adjust for every detail for the few forgetful souls they play host to, or the next thing that will happen is that everything can be prayable without taking damage (ZOMG ALL PURPOSE PROTECTION PRAYER!#!@#!#@).

So it's Jagex's fault that you:

 

Forgot a vital instrument to killing dragons: a Anti-Dragon Shield.

Forgot a teleport out.

Unnecessarily rushed yourself.

Forgot to pray a certain prayer.

 

And let's not forget that it's also their fault that they can't control merchanters that increase Street Value much higher than their Alch Value using junk.

You brought your glory, but didn't teleport with it? :mellow:

 

Oh well, good luck getting your items back I guess.

At least you didn't lose the Battle Robe Top. You can easily snipe the other pieces of the GE, but it's the top that's the rarest.
