Trollface Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I got my first hood at 5x dungeoneering, chucked it away in favor of keeping my sag bow/prom spear. A couple days ago, me and this other guy got a hood in the same dungeon. :ossum: Once you have a hood you can never go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articultural Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 It's a RARE drop, I've gained over 15M Dungeoneering XP and seen 14 Edimmu without one dropping a Blood necklace, and yet I'm not posting a topic about it. Did you see what the forum is called? C'mon.. Tif gotta be more intelligent then that. Anyway, why would you want a blood necklace, it sucks, and has no correlation with what else was spoken about. The point isn't whether Blood necklaces suck or not, the point is drops from Slayer monsters in Daemonheim are SUPPOSED to be rare. It's like complaining about not getting a whip when killing abyssal demons, they're called rare drops for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like complaining about not getting a whip when killing abyssal demons, they're called rare drops for a reason.I think it's more of an issue of slayer monsters being TOO rare (although night spiders are more common). I can understand the drops being rare, but not the monsters themselves.

Lose No Hope Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 No, imo, it makes perfect sense to. If you have a team of hooded players, you won't need to clear many rooms. For example, if an altar room has no mages/non-humanoids, you don't have to touch that room. Whereas if there was even a single non-hooded player, the team would probably end up clearing the room. Same goes for many puzzle rooms. It quicker and easier if the team only has to kill a spider or giant than clear the room. While it may be frustrating, it's a perfectly fair and rational decision to me. While I wouldn't kick someone from my team, you'd bet I'd take the hooded player over the nonhooded one. It just makes life so much easier. Clearing altars is unnecessary now with the quick recharge update.Of course I would take a hooded player over a nonhooded, I wasn't arguing that. But if I'm teaming with strangers and one of them ends up not having a hood, I'm not going to leave or kick as long as he is a decent player. Personally, though, I'd still rather clean up a room that's frequently visited. My point was, though, that there's some logical basis for doing so.Zaaps has a good point though. When there are rooms filled with high leveled skeletons, humaniods, etc, it can be very annoying to have to take the time to kill them because someone without a hood gets piled by them.

Bartuccio3 Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I'm personally hunting for my own hood right now, and having little to no luck even being able to spawn a spider. The idiotic way people act in 117 has turned me off of teaming until I can actually make it into a good group on a separate server. I might just have horrid luck but the teams I get normally give me lower xp/hr rates than soloing medium dungeons... Anyway given how rare the spiders can be, and how rare a drop the hood is from one of these spiders, if I were teaming, I would gladly take somebody that knew what they were doing over somebody else just because they had a hood. It's an awesome piece of equipment, but having it (or not) still doesn't make somebody good (or bad) at the skill, it just means they had better (or worse) luck when training it.

Steel_Artist Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I gotten one when my dun lvl was much lower, but I was still new to the skill then and didn't understand its uses so I dropped it :( Haven't seen another since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PereGrin Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I've seen a few hoods. Got one myself, and gave the next few to people on my team. If you are running into people with sub 80 dungeon who say they have alched 17 hoods, they are lying. You dungeoning with people that low DG level probably means world 117, and you may as well go just grab random people from the RSOF to dg with you, as far as maturity goes. Don't worry too much about it. Almost all people get their hood at different times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like complaining about not getting a whip when killing abyssal demons, they're called rare drops for a reason.A number of differences. 1. Abby whip is not an essential in order to efficiently do an activity, there are a variety of alternatives or you could just range/mage. 2. Abby whip is tradable, so if your luck sucks, you can always buy the whip off someone, you can't really "buy" a shadow silk hood. O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hood isn't essential to dungeoneer efficiently in any way that an abyssal whip wasn't (pre-chaotic & godwars) essential to train Attack or Defence efficiently.

KevinsLunchbox Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Its one thing to post a rant, its another to have random stars in place of curse words and make little to no sense. Also I have a shadow silk hood and I'm lvl 70 dungeon. Normally I'd say keep at it, dung with friends, do medium or large c6 floors and eventually you'll see one, but since the original post was so poorly made I'm gonna say this. My shadow silk hood is cooler than yours and you'll never get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexRose Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I've alched three hoods since I've found mine, all in dungeons with other people that had their own hood. I think I spent the money on Rune Essence for Cosmic Runes. In seriousness, keep trying, you'll eventually come across one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"2. Abby whip is tradable, so if your luck sucks, you can always buy the whip off someone, you can't really "buy" a shadow silk hood." Also d'scim is an alternative, as is defensively chinning defence. Its not a great alternative either way. But you can get relatively close to max XP rates. Theres no real alternative to shadow silk hood though. O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youmu Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 They need to make shadow silk hood drops far more common. Make night spiders appear on EVERY floor theme, and have them appear in a dungeon floor at least once. Again as I said, it's not an issue of drops, it's an issue of the monsters being too rare. That's why so many people lack the hood.

Ginger_Warrior Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Its one thing to post a rant, its another to have random stars in place of curse words and make little to no sense.Verb * to rant (third-person singular simple present rants, present participle ranting, simple past and past participle ranted) To speak or shout at length in an uncontrollable anger.Looks like a damn good rant to me. I went to w117, did a 5:5 on a floor I'd already done (F30) with a group of strangers. We came across a night spider, I killed it, took the hood and got out the dung before they took another hour to unlock ten doors. Yeah, I used them. But I've got a SSH for keeps. :shades: | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
