Please release a drop table so people putting in their time have an understanding of what they are spending their time on. I'm currently 105 Toa in and 22 entries and I haven't received a single purple drop in my name. I wouldn't be so bothered by it if I knew what a general idea of when I should be expecting a drop but the lack of transparency means I'm gambling my time and don't even know the odds. Time is not something you get back.

First off I want to say that I think Raids 3 overall is a great raid. I have had more fun with the customization and solo-ability of the raid than with any other raid so far. The initial release was great and I had no complaints.

However, I have slowly gotten a bit annoyed with the updates focusing on the invocations (which I understand is a big part of the raid) when it seems like there are a number of bugs that seemly go unaddressed. I am frustrated that it seems like things are being "fixed" that didn't necessarily need fixed. The last 3 weeks have had invocation changes each time which largely affect how people play the game rather than fixing the actual bugs of the game not going as intended.

I understand there needs to be balancing with the invocation system being how this is the primary system in which rewards are determined, but when they are changed 3 weeks in a row with not much of an explanation, it seems that many of these changes are done as an afterthought instead of determining what is a "problem" and then working to solve that problem rather than throwing a wrench at it.

Now, as for the bugs. I do not know of many, but one I personally experienced today (I do not have video evidence) is that I was hit by a MELEE attack with MELEE pray activated by the Tumeken warden during P2 for a 34... To clarify, NO, I did not get hit by any of the obelisk attacks that drop your prayer (my prayer was still activated after the hit), and NO I did not turn on my prayer late for I had already had protection from melee activated from the previous attack.

I have not experienced an issues like this before, and I do not know if this is related, but afterward I noticed that under the summary tab for the TOA grouping obelisk, my "prayer effectiveness" is at 75% even though "quiet prayers" was not activated. I then realized that "deadly prayers" is causing this change even though the tooltip does not mention it. I know that this is what "silent prayers" ...cont...

I know that this is what "silent prayers" used to be before an update, but I am wondering if there is more than possibly a tooltip issue with this invocation.

Now, by far the most annoying bug I have encountered is null/dead/yellow clicks throughout probably all rooms in TOA. Most notably this occurs during the baboon path room for Ba-Ba. Many times when clicking a pillar when standing next to it, my character will turn to the pillar, but will not perform the action of fixing the pillar (yes there is a hammer in my inventory). Another one for the monkey room is that some clicks appear to be nulled entirely when going to attack on a baboon. I find this to happen the most frequently on the cursed baboons (I am right clicking them so I am not misclicking). For whatever reason, my actions will be nulled at times when going to freeze a cursed monkey or simply moving to attack them. I do not know if this null is caused by some attack at the same time or a warning within the room of some sort, but this appears to happen fairly regularly and is frustrating.

Now, I know that many streamers have mentioned an unfortunate yellow click due to the animations of some of the bosses (Ba-Ba, Akkha, and P2 Warden) and this is more of a QOL than a bug, but could the click-boxes be updated so that when a boss performs an attack/action that the click-box of where it previously was remain through the action? One last scenario that is rather annoying is when the P1 obelisk dies, players are able to click through it the tick that it is "killed" which if the disco lights are going, can drag players into the lights for nothing more than unfortunate timing.

Jagex have already stated that if they will be released, it will not be for the near future. If you have a problem doing something you don't know is a good use of your time, why spend your time doing it?

Obviously you want to make money, but this is a game and you have a choice to spend your time on it. If you are wanting to do TOA because it is fun, then don't complain about not knowing rates when they have already spoken on this issue. The wiki also compiles information and has been fairly accurate in the past so it sounds like you are wanting to justify whether you can complain for "going dry" or not...
