Ginger_Warrior Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I am 55% through the Bowl and I only have 7 Scroll Pieces. I have failed several scroll attempts at over 80%, including the last 3, consecutively whilst other people keep getting theirs through suicide missions. WTF Jagex. This is getting to be rather annoying.You've clearly never played Pokemon competitively. :P 3 | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS_Qet Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm having a seriously crappy time trying to recruit a sea witch. Had the mission and succeeded probably ~10% into the Skythe. Am now 80% into the Skythe and have yet to get one. Is this a known bug or am I just ridiculously unlucky? I've upgraded the lodgings since probably 40-50%, and quite a few days (and extra crew rolls) have passed since I got the mission.. Is it possible to get any resource from the final storyline reward? i.e. Am I going to be able to get 25 plate from the Assassin, or does she only give spice for her completion reward? Ridiculously jealous of the people who've already managed to get pieces of the armour(s)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Myr Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I don't think we know if/whether the final mission gives the same good yet. I think you are just unlucky with the sea witch. She'll probably start showing up a lot at once or something. It's just random. I'd be jealous if I hadn't been avoiding aiming for armor yet in favor of upgrading my ship and crew :) Maxed since Sunday, January 9th, 2014Completionist since Wednesday, June 4th, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeRambo Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Someone on the Runescape Forums was doing some tests with the scrimshaw, and they were getting around an onyx a tradeable scrimshaw, IIRC. They only had a small research size though. :P. And 92% to Pincers, with 4 missions coming in soon. Almost .. "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death.

Saradomin_Mage Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Adventurers come into port by default with a story mission, after that they make two separate rolls to see if they'll also offer a (afaik) goods/trade goods voyage and/or an XP/scroll voyage. You probably just got unlucky on that - I've had the Assassin turn up once with only a story voyage. In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers.

And I could have sworn when I'd been on earlier that day, there were two different adventurers with 3 missions in total. Glitch? It's worth noting that I still had a Whaler mission running during reset, so I'm thinking that they might have patched it so you can't have the same adventurer in two places at once. Otherwise just an unlucky glitch, which wouldn't be surprising given how many of them I get (impossible black marketer randoms every time lol). Edit: Saradomin_Mage explained the actual reason.
