Please no patch lol

I've been doing the mummies for a month or two before this update :) always alone... and then suddenly everyone is doing them and it's impossible to find a free world.

by the way, i haven't really noticed the increase in droprate. Received 14 effys after update, same 3h/effy on average. Anyone got more effys to confirm/deny?

I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come."

I've had a horrible drop rate thus far. 2 effigies in probably 8+ hours. Hoorah.

Figured I'd post this here too. Detects when an effigy is dropped. Change 270, 200, 680, 530 to the top left and bottom right coords of the area in which an effigy can be dropped. Make sure your inventory is excluded.

Care to explain how exactly those work? Or even where they go..

It's an AHK script. Just download it, copy what Hedgehog posted into notepad (saving as .ahk), and then run it.

 

All you need to do is change the x1,y1,x2,y2 values to define the area you want it to search.

So it picks it up for you, just tell you it's there, or what?

Also, how do I find out my "area"?

If I'm reading his code correctly, it looks like it gives you a little tooltip on the bottom right of your screen where the clock is. All it does it checks your screen to see if there is an effigy and alerts you every 30 seconds. If it picked it up, that would basically be a bot.

 

As for figuring out the coordinates, you can use Window spy, which comes with the AHK download. Just make a mental box over the area you want it to check (just as long as it doesn't include your inventory, you should be fine). Mouse over the top left corner and write down the coordinates that it will show.. then do the same for the bottom right corner.

 

Edit:

 

 

Decided to test it out finally lol.

Edit2: lol it works! just got 2 effigies in 5 mins :D

I know how i'm modifying that script :). Anyway i was 22/26 effigies w/o an alert system. so it'll be helpful for next few days. thanks hedgehog!

Was talking to a guy at mummies earlier. He said that apparently Mod Reach or someone (can't remember exactly who he was speaking of) already confirmed that this is being fixed with Tuesday's update. How valid that is we'll have to see come Tuesday.

Can you get me the coordinates for that spot? Or for that matter just the script edited to the right coordinates? It would help me understand more of how to put the coordinates into the coding and I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm having a problem with that script, it seems to always be saying the Effigy Found! statement even though there isn't an effigy anywhere within my game screen.

Those with a little bit of knowledge are more dangerous than those with none.

Lol I feel like they're going to get changed regardless of what Emily said there.

I assume people will rant a lot :S

its the afk thats the problem really, maybe if the rate was more like 1 every 1:40 to 2:00 it'd be a bit more reasonable.

To step up to Glacors or TDs takes a lot more effort for only a 10 minute increase in effigyrate. Though they do give significantly more profit and xp of course

Indeed. One thing is slaying 3k monsters to get 99 rc. Another thing is leave runescape open and click on it every once in a while and get 99 rc. It's like ivy, but for any skill lol.

Great guide mate, this will help me out a lot.

Are your coordinates correct?

Could you make a tutorial on getting coordinates? I tried the both on screen and in game windows x1,y1 x2,y2 and it just kept continuously saying "effigy found!" even when there wasn't one. I must be doing something wrong and I can't figure it out.

same thing happened to me. when i engulfed my screen in the wall part of the pyrimid everything was fine though. so my virtus was turning up false positives possibly (it's silvery).

Ya, the virtus probably messed it up.

 

I'm in void and it's still not working :/
