So, I've been doing Barrows lately, and I've come to a conclusion. I'm pretty sure most experienced Barrowers have already known this, but I wanted to confirm this hunch, and I'm too lazy at the moment to be bothered reading a Barrows guide to check it out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, my hunch is this: Each monster you kill has a drop, just like every other monster in the game. But, instead of dropping it on the ground, it drops it into the chest. No? That would explain why the higher your kill count, the more runes you'll get. And it also explains why a higher kill count does not increase your chances of getting a Barrows item, because you've only killed each brother once; therefore limiting the chance of getting a Barrows item to just those six brothers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And, as a sidenote, it explains double-drops of Barrows stuff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, is this correct? I think so, but let me know.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Off to do more Barrowing!

It's rather cOLD in here, isn't it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nah, GJ on discovering this for yourself, this is the conclusion most barrowers have come to.

Now now, don't pick on me. I just started Barrowing a few days ago, but I'm getting good at it. I've only read one Barrows guide, and I learned in-game from a friend. But that dern chest doesn't wanna give me my deaths back! :XD:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But yea, thanks for the answer and confirmation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note: Do not pay attention to the hidden-message!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mwuahahaha!

Kill one of every monster that's a high level, and then kill every low lvl monster another trip, and try to see a difference if there is or not.

The monsters do not drop items into the chest.

I would think they'd drop runes though, seeing as you get more the higher your KC.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And no hidden messages this time.

I did barrows for the first time today, or I should say one of my best friends did it with me (at my house).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He said the same thing and when I looked at the monsters I killed through each of the (very few) runs I did, I'd agree. My opinion probablly isn't worth much, but I'd consider my friend a pro-barrower :) and that's what he thought too.
