Dr_Dismay Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I came to this guide looking for information about building that statue in my home. One thing that was not addressed (that I could find) is how many strange rocks you have to get to complete the statue, how long it might take and how much total xp you can expect if you complete the statue. So I have a long way to go, but I think you have to get 1680 strange rocks??? At my levels, that is around 6500 xp each. That comes to over 10 million total xp in the 15 different skills in bonus xp -- not including the actual xp I get seeking the stones and any increase in bonus xp I will get as my levels increase. Am I even close to correct? And how long does it take to get all the replica pieces? There are 56 total? I'm not sure. I still don't know what the statue does when it is completed. But I'm happy to not know until I complete mine. At my current rate I should have it completed some time in 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm happy to not know until I complete mine. At my current rate I should have it completed some time in 2021. Thanks for the feedback. The actual end result of the Distraction/Diversion is purely cosmetic, so far from what i've heard from people who have completed it (i'm only half way myself, and have been rather inactive), it does nothing.There being 15 skills used in the D&D, each of them giving 2 rocks per creation of the statue, means you can gain 30 rocks per week. The replica statue, is, well a replica, so it is built in the exact same way, therefore requiring 30 pieces, which is 30 weeks (about 7.5 months). In total, you'll collect 30x30 (900) strange rocks from the entire activity, not including the clay replicas. I'm going to avoid adding a "you will gain this much exp for 30 weeks", because it will be incredibly inaccurate. The D&D can be started at any level and you level up over time and while doing the activity; which means, your 'reward' exp, will be very difficult to calculate. You may go from level 50-70 in one skill during the entire time, and only go up 80-85 in another skill, which again, makes it hard to calculate.If you for some glitched up miricale, had level 50 in all of the 15 skills for the entire length of the D&D, you would receive 2500 exp for each stone. There being 900 stones, means you will gain 2.25 mill bonus experience overall (150k each skill). If you were level 90 the entire way, you would expect 7.218 mill bonus experience (481.2k each skill). That's about the average you can/would/should expect. Hope this has helped. :) I will update the guide with that information soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Excellent guide. Good pictures, multiple methods, new info (to me anyway). Might actually start getting rocks.

roanlo Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 Thanks Mikeg and Quyneax. :) With the Herblore Habitat update, I noticed you can get strange rocks from it. I got one myself while hunting the little raptors, but I haven't gotten one from the farming plants or making the potions. I did hear rumours though that you could. If there is anyone who could confirm to me if you get strange rocks from either farming (and if it is only particular spots) or juju Herblore it'd be great and i'll put you in the credits. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maginix Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Great guide! Just finished my house statue and found this guide looking for info on what happens next. As there is nothing in there on that subject just a couple of observations. When you finish your house statue you get a message saying that you can demolish it and build it all again - apparently a never ending D&D.I did not do that, but I still got new rocks as I started to train a skill and I could start to build the statue again in the museum. What will happen when that statue is finished is still to be observed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roanlo Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Thanks for that info maginix! I'm still ages away from fully completing the thing, I'm too inactive. But I'll add that to the guide. Update me when you've finished the statue please. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roanlo Posted January 7, 2011 Author Share Posted January 7, 2011 Can you get rocks from jadinko "box" trapping? Yes you can. They're actually a pretty good way of training as well, so i'll add them to the "best" methods section soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenstino Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I have a tiny question about the shattered heart activty. I just got the statue for the first time yesterday. My question is: Can i get all the rocks immediatly back ? Or do I have to wait for a week to get the rocks ?Or do I have to wait only for rebuilding the statue ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you've built the statue completely and gotten the replica piece, you can continue gathering more strange rocks. You can also put new rocks on the statue without waiting, however you won't be able to place the last rock pair until a full 7 days has transpired.

slaindustries Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Very good guide. :thumbsup: Just one small thing i noticed on the mining section, varrock armour 3 and 4 definitely work at granite but it only helps up to adamantite ore when mining rocks.

Considering even adamanite is a stretch on speed AND experience I would not recommend runite (making the 3rd/4th Varrock armour useless in this situation). Both of these, mainly rune are used for the money. I'm not sure of the profit from the coal and gold deposits, but I do know they are vastly faster, and give more experience, because of this you will want to mine from these after Granite (or a slower method like the coal trucks).
