what i find extremely frustrating..im fishing 3k sharks, which according to your ratios i should get 12 or so big sharks. im halfway through, ive fishing 1520 sharks, and I have not yet gotten a big one. im not sure whether its just me, or whether the rates are higher.

The rates are higher, but you have to remember that I guesstimated those odds just a few days after construction came out so not many people had them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If I was going to estimate them now I'd go for:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1/128 - KQ Head

 

 

 

1/256 - KBD Head, Crawling hand

 

 

 

1/512 - Swordfish, cockatrice, basilisk

 

 

 

1/1024 - Bass, Shark, Kurask

 

 

 

1/2048 - Abyssal

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That does NOT mean you will get a KQ head after exactly 128 KQs, infact the chance of having a head after 128 KQs is only 0.63, chance of going 3000 abyssals without a head is 0.23 (Greater than 1/5) and a 0.09 chance going 5000 without one (That's ~1/10 people will go 5000 demons without a head) aswell as a 1% chance of getting one after just 20 kills.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Makes perfect sense to me

I don't know if this will help, but i have gotten 2 KQ heads, during roughly about 650 kills. That 1/64 doesn't actually work for me, eh? :P

I got a KBD head on my 4th ever kill. Pretty lucky.

I got a cockatrice head after about 100 kills (on a slayer assingment) I think that was rather lucky.

Haven't bothered reading all the replies, but I'd like to post the amounts I needed for each item (more data for whoever is studying this).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The kq head I got on my 3rd actual kill (wen't on more trips, but on the 3rd kill that was mine, I got it).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The kbd head I got on my 26th kill.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And the Big Shark I got after about 5k sharks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Still working on the other types of fish :-w

I got a Basilisk head on my first Basilisk slayer assignment. Wow, I'm feeling lucky now. *runs off the play the lottery*

122 Combat : 99 Hits : 99 Attack : 99 Strength

97/99 Defence : 99 Fletching : 99 Woodcutting

well i got 3 count em 3 basilisk heads in 1 assignment, man i felt good,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

not gona get a KBD/KQ head for a long time though cos they scare me to hell and back and possibly halfway there again

i got 3 crawling hands in 133 kills... :3>

- I'm not proud of everything I've done, but I have no regrets

Me thinks your odds for getting a big shark is a bit messed up. I've fished over 2k and haven't gotten a single one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Although I may just have bad luck.
