How does Dojo Mojo from shifting tombs work? The longer we take to climb up the higher our chance, or is there an expected completion time?

How are ticks counted for Ace? Does each trap have an expected number of ticks per successful trap check, or is it only the single exp-gaining tick that gives a smallest possible chance?

Thanks for the reveals but can i just say those drop rates make 0 sense and many people would want to see them changed? What's the point of going dozens of millions of xp dry when someone just gets the pet at 65? Shouldn't the thresholds actually mean anything?


you said it meant 0 to you. therefore you didnt understand it

the threshold does mean something...

as said before just because you dont understand doesnt mean its wrong / worthless


You shouldn't waste your time trying to explain the rationality of drop rates and why Jagex released the numbers. These players are just incapable of understanding basic statistics or what a Random Number Generator (RNG) is. It'll just go into one ear and straight out the other ear.


lolol you are very right

Please look at the rates at which pet drop on invention


From my calculations its
1/46ish
chance for pet at 200mxp . Yes 200mxp when siphoning tier 90 weapons...

Bit extreme
if I say so myself since i don't get xp from it anymore... I'm 11-12mxp past 200m according to my tracker which is why I am pointing this out.

Im trying to decide if I should just stop trying...Kinda ridiculous at this point... don't you think?

This post brings me with some questions i have yet to find an answer to:

1) For time-based skills, the xp doesnt matter at all, which means chopping oak logs is technically better pet chance than G bamboo, assuming you can find an infinite supply of oak trees to chop from? Do you count failed chop chances as a pet chance aswell?

2) When you calc agility's pet chance, can you consider the temple activity near the digsite to be the most viable way to farm for Dojo (spinning one of the 6 auto-cycles) as it gives an xp drop every 2 ticks (i think). Tho it contradicts with the statement that says the only way to get the pet is by finishing an agility lap. Same question for Seren posts at Hefin's clan. If you cant get Dojo from the throne room does it basically mean the fastest agility course = highest pet chance (i think its the one in Burthorpe, correct me if im wrong)?

3) For the Dung pet, the technical best way to get Gordie is by having a 5 man team on the highest possible floor with a party group size set to 1? So we'll get lower overall xp but the xp wont be divided any further. Confirm?

4) So are there thresholds at lvl 99 and 120, or is there only one past 200M? Do i get the same pet chance at lvl 100 as i do with lvl 119? Assuming there are thresholds at lvls 99 and 120, how does it work with Invention? 99, 120, and 150? lvl 150 is very close to 200M as is.

5) Can you get skill pets from the Spring Fayre event?

Thanks in advance!

1. depends on ticks

2. seren posts best way

3. i wouldnt say so no.

4. 99 120 and 200m for invention also 150 not counted (wont matter anyway as 150 is at 196m xp or something i cant remember)

5. i dont think so. as not all skills can be done there. (i think)
