Th e Doctor Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I'm curious to know if anyone has any drop rates on the signets/keystones. I'm trying to figure out if I value my time at 4 mil per hour if it's better to DiY to get the pair or to just grind the cash and buy them.

Saradomin_Mage Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Supposed to be 1/64 for keystones and signets. Not sure if keystones are currently still more common. 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...
Saru Inc Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Here are my results: Keys Used/Purchased just means keys "used", but includes keys I lost to deaths. Percent of keys used total is just a percentage of how many used on that boss, vs. everyone else. Same thing with costs. 27m from non signet loot :o I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

chenw Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Note, that table is from before they corrected the problem that signets didn't drop if the drop pile was on a grating (or so I believe), which has been corrected. 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.

Sy_Accursed Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Keystones are definitely not hard to get. In 1 unicorn of fighting I always get 1+ though average is ~3.5 Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I killed them I swear I was one of several victims to the glitch. But yes, there were two glitches. 1) The signet would not drop immediately, but instead would drop a few seconds after, and wouldn't show up on minimap. 2) When killed over a grate, the signet would not appear. Apparently it literally fell through the grate. I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

Th e Doctor Posted August 14, 2013 Author Share Posted August 14, 2013 DERP edited out nonsense. So it's cheaper to make them yourself possibly.

Estoc Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 DERP edited out nonsense. So it's cheaper to make them yourself possibly. Just make sure you have a lot/can make a lot of extra money, as you cannot 'cash in' your drops until you finally make the crossbow. Personally, I wouldn't bother as it's very susceptible to bad luck, and you will pretty much need to earn most of the money required to outright buy an ascension crossbow in the first place, in order to pay for keys+dcbow and supplies.

Miss Lioness Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 so is it worth trying to get keys from slay tasks and trying to kill the boss? or could someone link me to a guide? im lost here lol. In general I would save the keys till you have large quantities of them, then use them... 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.

If you have like 400m+, you should buy keys and kill the bosses for your slayer task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
