fighterhwk Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I've just started doing barrows, and i noticed a trend. When I finish all 6 brothers in one go, it's really rare to get an item for me. Then, once, I forgot to bring a p pot and only ended up killing 4 brothers, making me go back to varroc to get another p pot for the last 2. Bam! I got a torags helm from the chest. Then, the next time i did barrows, i didn't bring enough death runes...forgot to restock #-o , so i only killed 3 brothers that time. When i went and restocked, then game back, i ended up getting a guthans skirt! :D Is this just a coincidence, or maybe it's possible that when you make multiple trips, you have a better chance for an item?

Bloodveld Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Okay, you have a theory. Now go do 1000 runs of 6 brothers and 1000 runs of splitting the brothers up. Hopefully you will see a trend with this very small amount of data. :^_^: I drew that smilie, btw, along with a few more used by this site.Classic bloodveld for lyph3!

Its just a coincidence, everything in the chest (item wise) is random. I've done 1,650+ runs so I can be sure of it. ~Saruman I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

Abyssalwhip Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 It's just a stupid thoery, if you actually have to go to varrock to bank you really shoulden't be doing barrows in the 1st place, you just got lucky, on my 1st item i got a spear, run right after it i got a k skirt, it's all just luck.

Its not for you to say who should and shouldnt go :| On the theory, i don't think it's true, why would multiple trips make it better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you will see a trend with this very small amount of data. 1,000 runs? Try 1,000 Barrows items. I'd like for once for me to be proven wrong when I think that a title stating "Barrows theory" is going to contain a total bull [cabbage] random hypothesis based on less than 10 runs of data.

Macmaster92 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Again its totally based on luck. I have done 30+ runs (know thats not that much) i and i have not gotten one barrows item. I have gotten a d med and a half key thats all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar3019 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I think it was luck. Try doing multiple runs (i.e. 50+) and see what happens. I'd be interested to know. perfect grammar is one thing, typing like a drugged monkey and enjoying it is anotherAMEN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebdragon Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I think it was luck. Try doing multiple runs (i.e. 50+) and see what happens. I'd be interested to know. Relatively, 50 runs really isn't any better than his amount of data.
