Kill Count At The Barrows Experiment - In Progress

Recommended Posts

All positions filled.

 

 

 

Basically, Dharock gave me no comment. That maybe because heÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s an NPC and canÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t talk. OR he is just being awkward OR heÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s hiding the chances of getting better items from his lovely chest.

 

 

 

Experiment

 

 

 

We need to know! And so we need 10 volunteers to test out whether Kill Count really does matter in barrows. Experiments have been done before yes. We however need a wider variety of people to test this. Therefore 10 seems the right way to go.

 

 

 

Five of these people will be getting a kill count of 15. No higher, no less. As it is right in the middle between 10 - 20.

 

 

 

The next five people we need are going to be getting 25 Kill Count each run. Right in the middle between 20 - 30.

 

 

 

We need you to collect every item you get from the chest be it runes, money or bolt racks and keep a record of it.

 

 

 

Edit: After requests for a 6KC log. And two people kindly volunteeing to help out. I'm putting in a 6KC team. If you wish to apply for that. Same rules apply.

 

 

 

Every person who volunteers will be doing 50 runs. So the results will be of 500 runs overall. You must kill all 6 brother in this kill count! If you get a twin, or triplets (more than one of the same brother in the tunnels) make sure to only kill one of them please.

 

 

 

This require dedication from the people who volunteer, so please donÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t if you canÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t do the amount of runs needed. So be 100% sure when you volunteer for this.

 

 

 

Both me and The Valor will be heading the two teams. Although we donÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t have to run together. When you have the results you will need to send them to us. I will be heading the 25 Kill Count team, and Valor the 15 Kill Count team.

 

 

 

In bold are the team leaders.

With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed.

50 Runs each is good enough for the start of this. We cant do much more to start with and make it easy to put results back together.

 

 

 

Pm me ingame if you wanna or are joining my team.

Ehh, I would say 5 people do 6kc, and 5 do 20 kc. Also, 50 runs per person won't be enough, I would suggest at least 200(which is still low)

 

 

 

Change it to this, and I'll help ;)

250 runs for testing each will be good enough i think...

No, because item drops might depend on the player (who knows?)

 

 

 

Also 15 vs 25 kc won't solve anything, to really find out about kc, we have to do no kc (but with brothers) vs 20 kc (right in the middle of both your kc's)

Well no.. because Jagex doesn't favour different player. And 6 KC doesn't tell us anything about whether KC in tunnels matters...

We can vary kc between 15-25, but one HAS to be 6 kc, to prove is kc matters or not.

You are missing the point...we have to test between no kc and kc! 6 kc (brothers only) vs 20ish kc (with brothers) will prove this!!

I get what you are saying.

 

 

 

Basically, How can we try and prove 15 or 25 KC is better for drops, when we have not proven whether KC actually helps anyway?

I can see what you saying. But i cant think of anyone wanting to get 6 kill count. And i don't think we'd get any volunteers for a 6KC team. And hopefully, the difference if any between 15 and 25 kill count will show if this is true.

Lol very good point Satenza! If we get more loot with one of the KC's then it shows that it DOES make an impact.

All I know is that this log is going to fail without a 6 kc team. I'm sure that people would be willing to do 6 kc.

Sat, maybe we should add what monster we killed because of the multiple theorys about killing a low level rat and getting these runes...but yes we are prooving killcount = barrow items...ok

Here is my setup for barrows =p

You know you could save thousands if you brought rune, used slayer dart and didnt pray on Verac, Guhan and Torag. Also, you could use full black dhide for ahrim and not pray on him. Leaving only Karlis and DHarock to pray on. Just a suggestion on how to not use that many Pray pots per trip.

 

 

 

And record the items you get in that kind of format.

Whats the difference eh? If we see a change from 15 KC and 25 then we can know for sure that Kill Count does effect the amount of Barrows drops you get.
