Platinum_Myr Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 As far as I know anything which drops orts also had a low chance to drop tears. Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I doubt they individually added drops to every monster, but more a global thing that it may just be easier to add the same ammount to each monster rather than fine tune them for each monster.I'm sure this is true, but it also begs the question as to why they couldn't also add a general rule like, the number of tears dropped could be as high as the monster's combat level, or something.But yeah, you are supposed to collect them on the battlefield. Has anyone seen the new troops? I saw a few spawn, didn't see what they did. I believe one of the new types is a medic, based on seeing green pluses on their capes. It appeared they were moving together as a squad too, each with an Infernal staff, how fancy!Zalok killed a minelayer and got some "Sacred Mines" and I got to see what they did. They're basically ripped straight off of Dominion Mines but 1HKO the NPC that runs near them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saradomin_Mage Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Killed a rogue and it dropped 16 shards (was 5x multiplier).Killed a gatherer and got 1 shard (1x multiplier though). In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look back on my posts here I have a decent set up and some talk on how hotkeys should be set up.

chenw Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 With regards to the Tear rate, i'll let you all know later on today, I have about 1500 tears in my inv, so I should start with only x4 tear at the start. Confirmed, any tears left over from previous days will count towards your next day's limit. Hording days are over!

Kaida23 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 So tears in inventory are not lost, but what about renown? Is that reset when you switch sides?

Miss Lioness Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 So tears in inventory are not lost, but what about renown? Is that reset when you switch sides? Yes, and it notifies you when you attempt to switch sides Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?~ Marianne Williamson For account help/issues, please follow this link: Account Help. If you need further assistance, do not hesitate to PM me or post here.

Wkw Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 So does anyone know if we'll only have warpiest sara/zammy armor? It'd be a real shame to get some of one when our choice gods come out, if we can't exchange it for the other armor..

chenw Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 we will most likely only have Z and S for THIS event, the future events we (or at least I) don't know about yet, so there may very well be other rewards for other gods. 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.

Flabberwocky Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I wish they were clearer on when exactly the Battle of Lumbridge area would get "crowded" enough to trigger the instanced version. I was put into one earlier (while gathering tears in W42) and it was full of NPCs fighting. I imagine it'd be much much easier to get shards in those instances...

HunterDexter Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Yeah, was in an instance as well, I loved the atmosphere, with all those battling troops.
