They're only slightly better than chimera but also lack the 10% xp bonus. I got one, and I use it on dual combat-morale missions. However, oxface crew are better than jade golem anyways. Actually jade golem is slightly better than regular crew with judge on dual missions, because the base stat total is 50 higher, and you add an additional solidarity (judge, merch, golem, one of each crew type) = 5 instead of (judge, merge, combination of crew from two types) = 3 or 4. It would go down even more if you don't put merch on board. That's a diff of 100+ over not using a golem/chimera.

 

If you have a chimera, you might want a jade instead, but... it will take longer to match chimera's lvl, and by that time you might want ox-faces instead.

Reached the pincers. I'm figuring I can send 2 pincers and 1 bowl mission set per day, while missing one set of pincers every 4 days due to time and such. However, this is being extremely optimistic as I doubt I'm going to get max speed for every voyage lol

 

E: First regen in the pincers..Whaler with 100 spices and a plate/scroll for 20k SF...... :oops:

I don't understand why farming randoms was so awful, they were so rare as it were. And if they were really concerned about, why wait for so long to do something about? There's nothing more annoying than the sheer laziness that Jagex displays with regards to stuff like this. They make a feature that they later considered overpowered, but they don't do anything to fix it until dozens of people have had plenty of time to exploit it. They should at least remove the holding cap, which is inexcusable.

Even worse is that their temporary fix of making randoms limited to 1 per day wasn't removed after they fixed the reward "bug".

You need any two of the three adventurers for a trio to show up in port, before being able to play through their trio storyline voyage.

 

In your case the trio you can use are the Biologist, Convict and Missionary, so any two of them in one day will do.

So if two of those three happen to show up in my port, an option will be available for the story line? Even if I've completed each of their individual story lines? That can't be right, as the biologist and the missionary literally showed up on a re-roll 20 minutes ago with an option for their final story lines, and some resources, etc. No trio mission though.

Oh, I misread your first post. You need to fully beat the adventurers' individual storylines (up to the Pincers voyage) before you can play their trio storylines.

Ok .. Wasn't there recently a patch note that said they fixed the issue with special missions disappearing? I could have sworn I read that somewhere..

 

Anyway.. Just had this lovely mission come in on reset ..

1XByT.Png

 

But it disappeared after a different trio story mission returned.. (Biologist, Convict, Missionary..) Doesn't make any sense that it would remove all my specials, especially since they're Whaler, Assassin, and Occultist. Any idea? :(.

Is the reward for the end-of-story missions random? Because if the convict always gives plate (as a screen I saw shows as one of the rewards) that's just stupid honestly :-|. I want death lotus, not tetsu...!

It's apparently random.

 

I assume you can just skip/reroll the end mission to get the trade goods you want, though.

Occultist = Chi

Whaler = Spices

Assassin = Lacquer

Biologist = Bones

Missionary = Plates

Convict = Plates

 

Not random.

^ Weird and confusing at best, only two adventurers actually give the same trade good at the end of their storyline as their normal trade good voyage (Biologist and Occultist).

 

Even more weird is that there are two plate rewards...

That is rather unfortunate.

 

It is also the reason why I don't like sending adventurers out in that success region, I am much more comfortable sending them at 60's and 70's. Counter-intuitive and I am probably superstitious at best

I've ranted about this earlier too. The day before yesterday, 4 special voyages (Biologist, Whaler) vanished after my voyages from the day before came back and before I had managed to send them out. They both spent the day sitting upstairs in the bar with nothing to do...

 

When did they announce the patch? It's not fixed as far as I can see. I've taken to doing my special missions first thing, so they get back before reset time and don't interfere with the special voyages of the next day. It's not always possible though, especially in the Pincers with its long voyage times.

So I'm on my break and bored... I decided to check my docketed voyages for the hell of it. Lo and behold the one voyage I've been hoping for with the easiest requirements to hit with my current crew:

 

5 chi globes and 20k morale.

 

You best bet ill be going balls to the walls on this one for my sea singer hood.

Apparently two months is enough for releasing spoilers, and Mod Michelle has graciously uploaded all the correct answers to Meg's adventures to the official wiki.
