ACK Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 2 days and NO scroll missions -.-also failed in the previous 2 days EDIT: Third week with no Oxheads crew member (need 1 to have 4) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Den Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Failed my last story mission ever at 85%... -.- wtf JagexYeah, why doesn't Jagex understand statistics? Everyone knows 85% means you can't fail.It means there's a small chance it will fail. Of course it would when I've been waiting for the mission for 5 or more days. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

WeatherMatt Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 That happens far too often, especially with trio voyages (when they come back, they nuke any undone specials for that day, so try to set it up where it comes back with nothing left). 51st scroll complete - one more for full armor scrolls, then to do the useless scrims I have left. I'm essentially at the ports end game now - all scrolls I care about done, ship/crew/port upgrades finished (with 4 jade statues). Now it's just stockpiling trade goods to sell stuff.

Troacctid Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Same here, but I think it's worth having at least one parrot, assuming you're not maxed. 25k slayer xp >>> 39 spice, and any xp mission is better than a resource mission.

Rerolled voyages for a 30 spice, 5 bone and 5 chi. The 5 chi, if successful will be me at 10 chi from sea singer bottom.

Acherhar Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I don't think this has happened, but has anyone gotten Shattered Heart strange rocks from any activities in POP? I was hoping to get some cooking ones from making Rocktail Soup, but it seems that's not an option. I submitted a bug report today regardless, hoping they add them in for not just soup but making armor and scrimshaws as well. 77th to reach 99 Hunter, December 25, 2006.

Platinum_Myr Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 That would be nice, but I imagine since the rate you can make them is pretty low (except rocktail soup?) that they may not have considered it. They definitely should add it though, as long as the rock never shows up if you inventory is full (no chance to destroy items!)

Alg Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 What do you do once you no longer need resources? Should I just reroll my daily voyages until I get trade goods or do I complete missions anyway, just to stockpile them in case of a future update?

chenw Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 I send them out as filler voyages (IE if you rerolled the voyages and that's all you have got, go for it anyway). But I'd only keep the 400 and 700 steel missions, and definitely reroll anything lower. 1 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.

Should I just reroll my daily voyages until I get trade goods or do I complete missions anyway, just to stockpile them in case of a future update? A bit of both. I try to send out a single wave of my ships each day for the Crew exp and chance at randoms. Use every roll you can trying for trades, but if not send out whatever steel you can just to preoccupy all 4 ships. How many hotdogs does it take to mow a garage door?

Miss Lioness Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Absolutely nothing from ports tonight. NOTHING! Bullshit... I had that y'day =C!Today it choice between 10 Lacquer or a scroll. I chose Lacquer because, well next month is nearing and I still need 2 pieces before full superior sets: Lacquer Hood (15 from it atm, 5 if the mission succeeds) and Sea Singers Bottom (20 needed) 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?'

Troacctid Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 (15 from it atm, 5 if the mission succeeds) You should be using a merchant to get 13 instead of 10. Read my blog | Follow me on Twitter | Track my XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would leave me with 2 for my last piece so it doesn't matter voyage wise, then you'll want to get the best % chance on succeeding ;) Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

chenw Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 It still do matter, since you don't have the lacquer voyage rolled (at least i dont think you do anyway). My state earlier about "if the number of voyages is the same" applies only if you know for 100% sure that merchant will not help at all in any shape or form. In your case, since you didn't bring a merchant, you'd have to roll a 5 lacquer voyage to get your DL hood, had you sent it with merch now, you only need to roll a 2 lac voyage or better to finish your DL, which is more likely than rolling a 5 lac 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.
