You must of camped there for a good amount of time then also. I also have 7 or 8 I think and probably around the same kills but it's mainly from Slayer. The only time I've camped them was 98-99 Strength when I was level 90'ish.

& Thanks for supporting my idea I posted it a few months ago when the Kraken first came out in another thread I have. Has a good 50+ Poll Suggetions on there with a lot of mini-game rewards etc if anyone wants to give feedback.

Question: Should very rare pets be added for the KQ, KBD, Callisto, Venenatis, Vet'ion, the DKS, God wars generals, Thermy, the Kraken and the giant mole, as described in the dev blog? Similar to the chaos elemental pet.

God Wars general pets were already polled and failed. Repolling content which has previously failed a poll sets a bad precedent.

Not if they come up with an excuse if the question was misunderstood due to drop replacement with rare items and pets having those annoying click options which have been long since removed.

Jagex still runs the show, we just have the illusion of choice.

Nice, I've just been doing general Slayer tasks I think I've seen you before somewhere though. @ 17M Slayer experience. (106 Combat)

I finally got a Whip drop last night I haven't gotten any drops for 2 Weeks of on/off Slayer of a few hours a day. Kind of disappointing luck lately.

The Rare Pet Question:
It should just require you to give x amount of that item to a nearby NPC in order to get the pet. (2-3 Jars of Dirt / 5 Abyssal Demon heads?)

However that could just my opinion since I've killed over 3,000 Boss Krakens with the drop rate being 1:1.2k for a Tentacle or whatever it was then it being changed to 1:400 or 1:200 whatever it is now without being polled which was frustrating and now they're cheap as. Jar is 1:1k drop rate? Also I've logged 16,000+ Abyssal Demons on my Slayer Log from 94-99 Slayer and I've easily done double that Pre-Slayer Log update. Head is 1:6k drop rate.

I think it'd be fair seeing how killing 1,000 Boss Krakens takes a long time as you have to be on task + have a high slayer level & obtain multiple jars in order to do so.

I think it would also be fair for Abyssal Demons as the head is very rare to obtain. Yeah it's easier to access and kill them but it could just require a large amount of heads to get. I don't know how many people have 5+ Abyssal Demon heads. (You will most likely have to kill about 30K Abyssal Demons @ 1:6k per head. This is about 23,850,

I'm not too keen on the abyssal head/ jar of dirt idea. I've killed 19k abyssal demons and am yet to receive a single head drop so far. If i want to collect all the pets, I would rather get the chance (uber-rare 1 time chance) to receive them straight from the update, not have to kill x number in order to get another drop to create the pet.

They never changed the drop rate of the tentacle btw, it was always 1/400 from the boss and 1/1200 from the small ones.

Edit: I definitely do want an abyssal demon/ dark beast pet too though.

Don't change spawn rates.

With the new continent coming up, we NEED to delete some worlds so this game can grow properly; it already looks too empty due to the massive number of worlds.

Delete half the worlds, fixes the problem and then some. Long live the Wilderness. Long live risk vs reward in PVM. Long live 2006.

Static respawn rates
No, I would prefer them to remain dynamic, but have spawn rates based on the amount of players in the local region, instead of the entire world. This would still help with congested areas, while not boosting spawn rates for uncrowded areas - which is not how it was intended to be.


In other words: min spawns for everyone, you think w1 2 people in 1 granite spawn is fine? "your a idoit"

As far as respawn rates go I do think that there would be less raging in the Motherlode Mine even on worlds with fewer people. Seriously… people are aggressive if not unpleasant to one another.

Bud mlm spawns are static already
