Aiel Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 KQ is the second third hardest boss to solo after nex and corp. The drops are mediocre at best, and there's very little reason to want to kill her other then [cabbage]s and giggles. DK drops (solo/LS): 66 hatchets, 14 archer rings, 13 berserker rings, 17 warrior rings, 12 seerculls, 13 mud staves, 7 seers ringsQBD drops: 1 kite, 2 visages, 4 dragonbone kits, 3 effigies, lots of crossbow partsCR vs. CLS threads always turn into discussions about penis size....It's not called a Compensation Longsword for nothing.I've sent a 12k combat mission to have Aiel assassinated (poor bastard isn't even Pincers-tier difficulty).

Yes, third hardest boss if you cross out all GWD bosses, TD's, and Chaos Elemental. Yes, you can easily kill it, but the drops suck. ~~~The Harpy List~~~Harpy Facts~~~It's Super Effective~~~The Beginning~~~Harpy Therapy Center~~~Alg~~~Jedi Harpy~~~Rohirrim~~~Attenuation~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How on earth do you figure KQ to be hard to solo? You run in with Verac's smash it til it form swaps; bail out to restock food if needs be then go back in and smash some more.Heck with curses you probably can easily do it without banking at all. TDs are easy but I wouldnt count them as a boss monster, they r jsut a strong normal monster like blk dragonsGWD bossses r deffo harder than KQ you need finely balanced armour the right weapons and you have to kill in the right order while pray hopping; plus they r obv overcrowded.Chaos Elemental is deffo harder with its barrage of odd attacks constantly moving you etc Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Seriously let the people saying that the KQ is easy go kill a few... even a maxed person will struggle to kill more than 5 KQs per trip, whereas 5 of any GWD boss solo is rather bad (even more so for tds). The KQ is extremely accurate and has rather high defence (Verac's having rather low dps). Lol @ CE being hard because of it's 'odd' attacks. Pray mage, wear Karil's and use brews. Don't drop vials. Seriously, any 100+ can solo the CE. You also don't need 'finely balanced' armour at GWD, at all. Nor do you have to kill in the right order while prayer hopping... you pray one thing vs. the boss then soul split the rest, lol. TDS are just easy. They are also really accurate with ranged/magic but also very predictable. Finally, solo tribrid DKS is probably very hard, but then again, you're still killing a huge number per hour versus maybe 10 KQ kills per hour.

Alistair Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 The only drop you would solo the KQ for is the Kalphite Queen Head, and the only other reasons to do so are for fun or for Slayer special assignment. It doesn't die quite easily enough to make it worth trying for otherwise. It is also practically the only boss I ever solo (never tried GWD, KBD, TDS, etc.) Doable but certainly not effectively.

SpikeStr1ke Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I agree with Sy, I was at 95 att/str and 99 def in Veracs and praying mage+piety i didnt have much trouble killing her. I could kill her at least once before banking and sometimes even get her to 2nd form on the next kill before banking, but granted this was when i didnt have exts and since i got them i havent been back to KQ so i might try it again just for the heck of it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, that's not how it works. I can in theory stand in the kbd lair, killing him over and over, exceeding a hundred kills. GWD bosses can be soloed literally dozens of times per trip.How exactly is killing 1 and a half queen anywhere near "easy"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeStr1ke Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 lol with kq you cant expect to get like 5 or 10 kills a trip she just isnt that easy. Getting 1.5 kills on her is pretty good for not banking without using ovl's/turm/ss/ ect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossed_Body Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 There we go then. Point proven, KQ isn't efficient to solo, and the drops certainly don't pay for your trouble. Stay out of the lair, OP ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeStr1ke Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Lol i never said she was worth soloing because ur right she isnt the easiest boss to solo but she's also horrible for drops best one being the D chain which is so rare it would be pointless to bother trying for it. Her drops wont pay for ur supplies so like crossed said OP...stay out of the KQ lair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is ignorant, as we have seen time and again. And yes, the KQ is the third hardest boss in the game, based on how many you can kill in a set amount of time- her ranged and mage attacks ignore defense completely and the different forms have extremely high defense(maul is best against her). Not to mention, she has twice the LP of the four gwd bosses. Not worth it under any circumstance(and i'd know this, i've gotten chain, left half, dragon spear, lava battlestaff and kq head from her, all prior to the items being useless).

bodder Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I think the OP may have changed his mind on KQ but I do feel I can add. I use to solo KQ for slayer tasks and could end up getting 3-4 kills per trip. I wore slayer helm, bandos and a SGS. I prayed turmoil and deflect mage since that is her hardest hitting *range is op too* Once you get her onto you, run north *I think its north* towards the rope where you came in and get her monsters around her. Now you can do the bandos trick, walking under her after every hit.I would only do this after low on food so I'm sure you could get a lot more kills if you really wanted to but I was not really interested in staying there all afternoon for 1 kill. And yes I would say kill any other boss monster, you'll get a lot better drops. Bod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not ignorant I know perfectly well what I post and am confident in it, but am, also perfectly happy to admit I'm wrong when proven so. I personally don't deem a boss "hard" simply because you can't do that many kills in a trip. That's efficiency not difficulty in my book. And sure the norm may be that KQ is a pain in the ass but that does not have any bearing on personal experience, which is what I stated.I mean the norm is doing barrows runs is a good money maker; but in my personal experience I've not found it to be because I've had crud luck with drops.

Nifflin Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Please keep your personal experience out of H&A, if it's personal then it really doesn't help answer questions. For everybody but you KQ is hard, for everybody but you barrows are good. Seems like you maybe you shouldn't be giving advice on this. PM me in game anytime It's a lot easier then that for an idiot to sound smart on the internet. That's exactly what you're doing right now... just saying.

Sy_Accursed Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I think personal experience is perfectly valid in help and advice if it is not stated as fact.Many thing is this game come down to personal taste, luck and many other factors that vary from person to person.

Nifflin Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Why would it be? An OP wants what is most likely to help them. Since many things vary the advice most likely to help them is the most efficient advice and the advice which applies to most people. They don't want to know about your anomaly, especially when you present it as a fact as you did here. It is misleading and unhelpful. So while personal opinion can be valuable, it is far more harmful when presented in a misleading way. I think this is what everybody here has a problem with. If you want to argue further with me we can do it in PM and not spam this place up. PM me in game anytime It's a lot easier then that for an idiot to sound smart on the internet. That's exactly what you're doing right now... just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
