April 1, 200620 yr Never ever kill monsters without a ring of wealth and dont come up with this bull about: but i killed 1 dragon without row and ive found teh dragon legs!!11one, cause that is not how maths work. Lets say that iron dragons legs have 1 out of 10^9 dropchance and lets say you kill exact that amount of dragons without row:1-(1-1/512)^512 = 63% chance of getting legs, which is less that two thirds Now you wear ring of wealth which lets say add 20% chance of getting those rare items: 512*0.8=410. 1-(1-1/410)^512 = 71%. You just added about 12.5% chance of getting rare items((71-63)/63) It's still a matter of luck, but its also about perseverance and not complaining ever 10 dragons without rare item drops.

You just added about 12.5% chance of getting rare items((71-63)/63) It's still a matter of luck, but its also about perseverance and not complaining ever 10 dragons without rare item drops. First of all, your giving us random numbers (where the hell'd u get 20% increase?, and all those other numbers for that matter?) with no proof that the ring of wealth even helps anyone at all. Also, I've killed over 500 Steels and Irons, burning about 2mil in runes, and I havn't goten 1 dragon drop yet. A lot of these guys have done even more without a rare drop, so I'm pretty sure we have the right to be mad after waiting forever and spending who knows how much cash just trying to get 1 rare drop.

April 1, 200620 yr ive got 5 drag legs and 5 drag skirts from about 5000 iron dragons, it probably your own anoyance and your own lack of patience which result in being mad at nothing the funny thing about chancecalculation is that its never random and it always gives an good estimate about the real numbers
April 1, 200620 yr just a question but didn't someone prove that the ring of wealth only helps on the gem, coin, halfkey, dsheild cycle?
April 1, 200620 yr i always seem to do ok over there (just breaking even with free magic xp) :oops: 94 mage 94 range 87 hits 80 defense, all 94 combat, all skill =) currently (retired?) from runescape, only play on occasion now http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=585887

April 1, 200620 yr Author Just finished another trip, killed about 100 of them, and I didn't get a Dragon drop. So that totals 500+ (50/50 Irons and Steels), I guess I'm just not a lucky person :? .
