Queen Black dragon drops nerfed?

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know whether the QBD's chest loot has been nerfed?
I do multiple QBD kills a day ranging from 4-30 kills, depending on how much time I got and seems to me the profit has gone down alot.
Usually I get at least 1 royal crossbow part per 6-10 kills. Now it's at least 30 kills ago since I had an effigy or royal crossbow part. It also seems 

the noted 40 raw sharks drops alot more frequent now.

Did anyone read about Jagex nerfing the drops or is it just really really bad luck the past week?
Please don't go explaining how the drop table works, I know how the odds work. I just wonder if it's bad luck or if something actually has changed, as I suspect...

Well, I'm just wondering when this was exactly, because I got super lucky at QBD a few days ago.

Spent 2 hrs worth of aura, maybe 1:45 min of actual fighting QBD (so like 42 chests).

I had to have gotten many rune ore, lant, 150k cash, 1 of each crossbow piece with 2 duplicates, and a visage.

The profit was lower than expected, but because the prices had gone down, not because I got worse drops.  |^_^|

I forgot how long ago, but it was nerfed, along with others. :mellow:

More old-school than you know...

Visage has nothing to do with this. I meant the regular loot and the xbow parts. Not talking about effigies and visage, that's just a rare drop for a high lvl dragon...

It was nerfed, which is why I don't do QBD anymore.

*citation needed*

 

confirmation bias is all. Sharks replaced runes, otherwise nothing has changed.

Probability, friends.

 

Learn it.

Again this doesn't contribute.

But had a chat with others who used to do qbd all the time and they all moved on. The rune drops have been removed and the xbow drops have also been reduced.

Thx for the replies, won't be doing QBD anymore when I get black dragon tasks... Sad :(

The rune part is true, the other is unverified and thus untrustworthy until there is either confirmation or more data.

 

Essentially, this is an example of confirmation bias. OP thinks it's been nerfed, and thus looks at all evidence in that light, ignoring or disregarding any which doesn't agree with said bias.

6.5mil/hr... Even if I hit 25 kills per hour I haven't hit that in ages. 
Anyway I've gone back to more afk stuff and working on my hardcore ironman. GL with drops all...
