I was talking about story mode with the 1/500 - you know, that thing that gives you a 90 % damage reduction , so everyone is able to beat the quest and did not offer any rewards at all at the three predecessors of this dungeon. It's not 'great', but it is a 'viable'

viable? for anyone that has to do story mode, full run is taking them 45-60 minutes........, they should be balanced around casual players, you know, the ones that play FOR FUN

It possibly might be a good idea to quote the entire statement, rather than ripping it out of context and thus falsify it. I'll even mark the core messages for you, since you seemingly were unable to grasp them.

depends on how you understand that word - I see it as it can realistically happen from time to time

) possibility to see something special - there certainly are some posts on reddit with players showing off their drop they got while doing the quest.

It's obviously not intended to be farmed - otherwise loot chance wouldn't leap to 1/100 at 0 %.

Seemingly some players understand 'viable' as approximately 1/1 drops. My [/quote][/quote][/quote]

viable means likely or able to happen.

If you can provide me with one example of one single person in the whole of rs who has got the whole bow from story mode, ill agree its viable. Just one person in the hundreds of thousands that play it?

hint: no one has or ever will = its not viable

You dont get to change the definition of words to suit your argument

Nihil can drop a zaryte bow with a 1/1m chance - that is per your definition 'able to happen' - Taking this part of your OR-Statement, I am more than sure, there are zaryte bows obtained from nihil in the game. Yet, I still do not deem it as viable.

And I never was talking about the entire bow, since you obviously still haven't understood I literally said in my post you've ripped apart,

that story mode is not intended to be farmed

. I just said players have obtained unique drops during their story mode runs. Which is with a 1/500 chance not unlikely. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

Nihil can drop a zaryte bow with a 1/1m chance - that is per your definition 'able to happen' - I'll totally agree with you and I am more than sure, there are zaryte bows obtained from nihil are in the game. I do not deem it as viable.

1. zaryte bow drops in 1 of 1 part
2. it has alternate drop source
3. nihil are not skill gated
4. If its not intended to be farmed then its not a

VIABLE

5. your right everything you read on reddit is true

1 - That's true.
2 - I mean - technically zammy has this with its real fight as well - you're not forced to try getting your bow via story mode
3 - Zammy story mode is more skill gated than Nihil?
4 - You have a different definition of viable, but even following your 'likely

or able to happen

' it perfectly applies to it.
5 - Mathematically it's plausible enough. I also see it as plausible enough you're saying you have a fsoa, albeit I won't be able to confirm it.

Honestly - I'll suggest we'll leave this as it stands - this thread is not about nitpicking about terms. You obviously see it differently than I in here. That's fine. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

more "play runescape as a job" mentality. Its a game. Its supposed to be fun. Grinding repetitive boring things to get decent gear because jagex would rather suck the e peens of the elite players who like getting rich to brag to their edates is just toxic and everyone outside of the elitist play as a full time job click realises this

And before you start, i only really play my iron account now, and i have BotLG and fsoa, i kill solak and aod, so im not "crying", i can do these things just fine, but i can still acknowledge that it is a toxic way to make a game. It should be about inclusivity, let the elitists

What "play runescape as a job" mentality? Didn't you read my posts that we can get gp to buy all BiS gear in RS3? Didn't I tell you gp comes far easier in RS3 than RSC/RS2 era? For instance, I made 700 mil gp in just 4 days.... oh, perhaps the "runescape" in your comment doesn't mean RS3?

Pvp and minigames are all thats fun to me. I make money solely to dump it into pvp in this game, nothing more. I like fighting things like tormented demons or glacors sometimes, and I was looking forward to fighting Lava Strykeworms once I got the SLayer Level, but thanks to Jagexs updates thants a big fuck you and I no longer have any desire to do so, but sitting down in GWD3 or4 day in and day out grinding for money just to upgrade my gear is not what I'd call fun.

Jagex doesn't give a crap about players like me it seems, so I'm starting to wonder why I keep trying to play this game. Leader of The Enemy ||

Why post in this thread then? There is no "bad luck mitigation" in pvp and minigames to even talk about. PvP and minigames put everybody in equal ground in RS3, nobody needs to be "elitists" to get any drop.

PvP and minigames put everybody in equal ground in RS3, nobody needs to be "elitists" to get any drop. Because in case you haven't been paying attention, the prices of items coming into the game, affect the balance of pvp. PVE affects PVP just by existing. Every change to it has anywhere from a minute, to a catastrophic effect on things in PVP. So yes, I'm entitled to weigh in on these kinds of things because it does affect my play.

How many players will go to a forum and tell us what drop they get everyday?

I am pretty sure it is still quite viable to get the whole bow from story mode as all the items and gp obtained there can be used to buy the whole bow, which has already fallen to the 6 bil gp range since its debut a couple of months ago. Like Zuk Sword and FSOA the bow is going to fall as time goes by. Let's get real, it is quite possible to get a few bil gp worth of items/gp drop from just doing ED4 story mode in few months, even if not a single piece of the bow itself drops.

Let's say we just get a lousy 5 mil gp/hr and we play 4 hours a day, in 100 days or about 3 months we get 2 bil gp already and by then FSOA will, if not BotLG will possibly be selling around that price range. Getting 5 mil gp/hr is elitist? ROFL!!!!!
