does it improve effigy drop rates?

[edit] nvm. Read last post

No.

No. ROW only improves the drop rate within the drop-table of the monster. Effigies and clue scrolls are considered *distraction* items, meaning

it's completely random and may stack with other drops together.

 

But tip.it item entry says it does increase clue rates so i'm a bit confused,

I thought Jagex actually said that ROW doesn't imporve clue scroll drop rates? Maybe they changed this. I can still say with confidence that row doesn't improve effigy drops though if you wanted to try you could always switch zerker ring out for a row at the end of a kill.

[edit] nvm. Read last post.

The RoW does infact increase clue drop chances, however not for effigies.

 

Of the last ~15 elite clues I've gotten from the male jadinkos, the 'your ring of wealth shines brightly' has occured on every drop. Never with effigies though.

 

It's been like this since the RoW update.

It affects clues but not effigies to answer your question.

 

I have received many 'your ring of wealth shines more brightly!' messages upon receiving clue scrolls, but on getting an effigy, I did not get such a message.

Ring of Wealth

 

The ring of wealth has been a kind of lucky charm for RuneScape players for many years now even though its effects were limited, and the wealth it brought was of dubious value, many still chose to wear it for good luck. We have now improved it so that it will better increase your chances of receiving rare items from drops or clue scrolls, occasionally improve some common drops, and give you bonus items in a few specific pieces of content. Whats more, the ring will now also let you know when it has made a difference to your drops, so you can better judge how useful wearing one is for how you play.

 

More specifically, wearing a ring of wealth will slightly increase the drop chances of many rare items obtained from Slayer monsters and various bosses, as well as all clue scrolls. The ring will also increase your chances of getting better rewards and more items from various activities, including looting the Barrows chest, Pyramid Plunder (including sceptres and new 'jewelled statuette' loot), taking out Bork (guaranteed improvement to his drops), catching kingly implings, and further improving your chances of receiving gems while mining (if also wearing a charged amulet of glory).

Ahh, I completely forgot they updated the row mechanics. :oops: I'll just edit my previous post then.
