October 3, 201114 yr Hi. I've heard that ancient effigies are directly related to the combat level of the enemy and nothing else. But how exactly are they related? It's obvious a level 300 drops more often than a level 100, but by how much? I used runescape wiki's calculator for some calculations, but after actual experience i'm either the luckiest person on runescape, or it's grossly inaccurate. So yeah. Anyone have the exact formula, or at least intelligent approximations?
October 4, 201114 yr Roughly 1 every 11018254*(Combat Level)^(-1.9469123) kills Source: that forum I'm not allowed to mention on tip.it You make it sound like running through a few level 87 monsters is hard which it really shouldn't be at your level.
October 4, 201114 yr Author Well that's certainly different from the calculator i've tried (Although mithril dragons seems similar, which is the oddity i was trying to work out) I guess i just got lucky. (5 effigies in 151 kills) I mean i knew 5 in so few kills was lucky already, but from the calculator and graph saying about 1/160, i pretty much performed a miracle. And could someone PM this he-who-shall-not-be-named forum? I've heard a lot about it, but obviously never seen it. Why is it blocked in the first place, bitter rivalry?
October 4, 201114 yr i don't get what you are talking aboutrunewiki is a perfectly fine site to mention on tipithttp://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Ancient_effigies#Can_monster_pages_be_edited_to_include_drop_rate.3F
October 4, 201114 yr i don't get what you are talking aboutrunewiki is a perfectly fine site to mention on tipitIt isn't RS wiki. The wiki simply took the info from the forum that must not be named. I don't why we can't say its name though.

October 4, 201114 yr Rs Wiki's calculator is correct, but it's displayed in a weird way. You need to input '1', as in the chance of getting an effigy from 1 kill, to get the drop rate.
