aj926 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm on a 36 run dry streak. I invite my friend. He does 5 trips, and pulls out 3 barrows items. he does 10 more, and gets 3 added to his other 3. My other friend comes. He gets a guthan warspear, a dharok helm, and a torag helm in the same hour. My other friend... the one who got 6 drops.. got evey single melee brother's legplates/skirts. He also got a flail and an ahrim staff. My question is does killing the monsters lower your chance of a barrows item? I know it gives you more runes, but I mean come on.... I've been getting 25 kills each time and 37 runs without an item... (Just completed another) is really sucking right now. My post is a rant/question and I couldn't descide on which to post in... i figure all the blended toppics like this should go into P2P since there really hasn't been a good discussion here in a while. So please don't move or lock this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badphooeybad Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Meh, Join the club... Seems like all my friends get barrows items and I havn't gotten one yet. -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehjl Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 this is what a Jagex Mod told me A higher kill count will increase your chances of getting a better secondary reward. If your kill count includes the 6 Brothers it will increase the likelihood of you getting the fabled Barrow items Dragon drops: D med x3, D Spear x2, Left Half x1, D2h x1Crawling Hands X4, Cockatrice heads X2, Basilisk head X2, Kurask head X1Support me in the drop race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott638 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 i always hear ppl telling me how good the barrows are and they won so much but when i do it i get nothing lol..must just be bad luck If u are reading this i am stealing your wallet....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aj926 Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 I have the worst luck in this game... 4 months of constant kqing and get nothing... I spent well over 4M on the pots and food. I went on a 50 run dry streak once. Then i died and lost over 10M because the d [] protected over the spear... I lagged out in the tunnel... I also had to use over 6K tokens to get the rune defender, 2.3K on the iron alone. Worth it, but still I have nightmares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stilev Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 done over 40-50+ lvl 3 treasue trails best loot - rune plate friend does 1st trial gets robin, second zammy plate third enchanted chest there is something totally messed up here!!!!!! :wall: :wall: :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebdragon Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Ouch, just bad luck's all, but if I were you I'd want to kill them... Sometimes I think people with all that luck need a nice reality check. One that involves a 100 run dry streak of course.

FrankyBrown Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Aww sounds like bad luck :( I've gotten 2 guthan spears from barrows, both after long dry streaks so I'm sure you'll get something good soon :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icedearth15324 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm on a dry streek of around, 150. I have a theory that jagex favors the rich, If they already are rich, they'll get good drops and barrows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kashi Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm so mad. He literally went to barrows in noob geear and used zammy flames+entangle. He had no idea what he was doing,a nd he was like "ZOMG GUTH SPEAR LOLOLOLOOLOLOLLLL" and teled. I was like... omg... Hey now! I use Zammy flames (charged), and I find it to be a very good method of doing barrows. And actually yes I went there and got a Guthan spear about 2 weeks ago, and when I got it I went "OMG!!" ... Do we know each other? My greatest ambition is to kill every member of the human race.However I am a realist and therefore know that I probably wont be able to.

Artemis_42 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Its really weird that everyone always says they get a guthans spear, yet it is by far the most expensive peice of barrows equipment. You not alone when it comes to dry streaks, i'm around 30 without an item, and it took me 40 runs for my last peice of barrows. Its always the people who aren't trying for rare things that get them, sorta like d-chains from dusties and the like.

Kashi Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Yeah, but I even made a thread about it and took pictures. :) The only reason it's the most expensive is because it's the most useful.

Cdub Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 My luck is having more Attack XP from killing Abbies without a whip, than I'd wager you have in total. That's not to say little of your Attack XP, it's just to say little, very, very little of my luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
