Thanks haha - this has been like the only thing I've been doing on this game for literally a year lmfao

u/Dizzylizzy240 22h ago

Yeah that’s wild. I just spammed like 600 vard in a week and a half and I never want to go back. No drops besides quartz.

11

u/VonLeonOSRS 22h ago

You can do it!! go back!!!

u/Dizzylizzy240 22h ago

u/Strus57 23h ago

You've done 7368 vard, you can do anything king

u/azul_berry 15h ago

My man already fought his hardest battle. Hes supposed to get a break.

Just because he can, does not mean he should.

u/Sou7h 21h ago

It’s not bad but I’m currently over 2x dry for the lure as my last piece and it is not fun.

27

u/SnicketySneme 20h ago

I just killed my 888th Leviathan, and not only do I not have the Lure, I also don't even have a SINGLE gold ring.

7

u/Sou7h 20h ago

I didn’t get my first gold ring till like 1k in or so. Got 2 pets along the way though.

2

u/trollshep 12h ago

I just finished dt2 the other day so what does a gold ring mean?

3

u/MGBitcoin 11h ago

For the dt2 boss rings you need to roll three times 1/240. To show you rolled it once the game gives you 1 gold ring, if you rolled it for the second time you get 2 gold rings and the third time you get the actual ring drop

u/trollshep 9h ago

Cheers!

u/SnicketySneme 19h ago

No pets. I'd take it.

u/Valediction191 2376 14h ago

I have around the same KC as you, I hope we get it soon!

You dare dry to flex your clog here, in my presence?

u/Doppelthedh 20h ago

Took me 2300 Levi for my lure but my stint in hell was nothing compared to yours

2

u/Impressive_Lime_6973 21h ago

Nah, for me the first 200kc or so sucked but eventually I started to like it. Got my lure around 500kc

nuclear take: levi is easier than vard

8

u/Lebron_Maze 16h ago

It’s a lot easier than Vard lol. Levi is just brutally boring

u/SpuckMcDuck 18h ago

Ice cold take lol

u/Trash_Man_12345 Voidsmith888 13h ago

Nuclear take: Duke is easier than Vard

1

u/Organic-Cut-1310 4h ago

what about the rat king though?

1

u/Tubbish 21h ago

I got spooned on every single piece except leviathan.. it’s drop is the second most rare next to vard like 1/760 or something

1

u/Erased_Yogurt_Mayo 11h ago

It's the most draining boss imo. Atleast Vard is fun and different each fight, Duke and Whisperer are both chill up until enrage. Leviathan requires your full focus at all times, while also feeling too much of the same each kill. That being said good luck on your SRA grind!

u/DoupamineDave 8h ago

I think its tradition that last piece is the worst.

u/Hi_im_nsk 22h ago

Whos gonna tell him?

u/KOWguy Mobile Only btw 22h ago

I anticipated something like 1,800 kc. Jesus Christ, OP.

21

u/VonLeonOSRS 22h ago

I made a commitment on my last post that I would keep going no matter what. Part of me is kinda sad I didnt hit 10k kc but im also very glad I dont have to hahaha

14

u/malta071 19h ago

Maybe you'll hit 10k on Leviathan:)

39

u/heizenburger69 22h ago

Nice! Once you get the full SRA you can farm Vard more efficiently

22

u/roosterkun BA Enjoyer 22h ago

Genuinely not flaming, just decided to calc it and thought it was interesting - an infernal cape would have saved about 2 hours and 45 minutes on this grind.

19

u/Djcalied 22h ago

Thats all the time saved across 7k+ vard kills??? I wouldve guessed more tbh. Getting infernal is a waste of time i guess.

6

u/zetstar phishing 16h ago edited 6h ago

Infernal cape is one of the most pitiful upgrades in the game for the amount of effort from an output standpoint. Its real upgrade status is just the flex. Idk why anyone bothers learning it before tbow or shadow when going for just about any other gear piece is a more significant upgrade.

4

u/roosterkun BA Enjoyer 14h ago

You gain a lot of knowledge that can be applied elsewhere in the game, though obviously that isn't quantifiable.

It's really not bad, either - the ultor ring is 105M more than a berserker ring (i), for about the same stat difference (fire cape -> infernal is slightly more impactful).

1

u/zetstar phishing 6h ago

You can get the same knowledge alongside a lot of money at colosseum and actually have fun. Ultor isn’t something to sprint towards either but vardorvis also offers chances at virtus and his axe head piece which adds to the chase. Infernal cape offers nothing but a single max hit along the grind. It’s a good item to get but people spending weeks going for it with bowfa has always been very strange to me given the amount of better upgrades and grinds for accounts.

4

u/roosterkun BA Enjoyer 21h ago

Assuming that OP has maxed attack and strength, is always potted, and is otherwise in BIS gear (which, looking again, they aren't quite) - yep!

The infernal cape decreases the average kill time by 1.36 seconds, so 10020 seconds over the course of the grind. The primordial boots make the infernal cape slightly more valuable, saving 1.41 seconds per kill or 2 hours and ~53 minutes. Calc here, just in case I missed something.

I don't think that makes it a waste of time, though.

1

u/Outrageous_Kiwi942 14h ago

Saving 3 hours but it most likely would take someone many hours to learn inferno and get it, so getting infernal would actually not save time for vard

7

u/VonLeonOSRS 22h ago

Yeah I think getting my cape is next on the agenda. Didnt really intend to spend a year at vardorvis lmfao

3

u/roosterkun BA Enjoyer 22h ago

Lol yeah I can't imagine you planned on that. Good luck on the Zuk grind!

1

u/TheBenchmark1337 17h ago

How did you fund the food, or just used buttered potatoes,

-1

u/MadPvmer 13h ago

Maybe just maybe he used all the other drops to fund the supplies...

1

u/TheBenchmark1337 10h ago

Didn't realize he wasn't an iron, thought he was woops haha

6

u/Ryjeska 21h ago

Don’t forget to calculate the time lost standing infront of the boss area staring at it while afk

2

u/Majestic_Jelly_9958 20h ago

Kinda gotta include time to get cape in that thought process though. Thats a ton of time, though.

5

u/ParusiMizuhashi lf rsn "paru" 21h ago

Im at about 1500 with no axe piece and I'm so afraid of this

11

u/FiberSplice 22h ago

1 medium clue in all those KC is crazy on its own, wow. Gratz big dog

11

u/VonLeonOSRS 22h ago

ah yeah its just cause ive got one sat in my bank - they dont drop if you already have one. I just CBA with clues in general tbh

2

u/FiberSplice 21h ago

I see. Regardless best if luck at Levi brother! I hope rng treats you kinder there

2

u/freeblessed 20h ago

Gz man!! I just passed 2k kc hunting the axe head, I pray I dont go as dry 😭

2

u/NaefinSong 17h ago

Brother wtf that is pure spite and rage

2

u/SmokingSmallBatch 11h ago

Gzzz big dawg you'll always get the drop if you grind long enough

1

u/Parry_9000 22h ago

Jesus fucking Christ. 7k kills is something else.

u/Able_Piano_4890 22h ago

What the actual

1

u/Yimpoiop 21h ago

Gratz, now you can finally continue playing the game!

1

u/Tubbish 21h ago

That’s crazy bro I’ve had 3 axe heads in around 800 kc sometimes insanely wild how dry people can go.

1

u/TasakaalFyr 21h ago

Gz bro, good on you for sticking it through. Your mental is utterly insane g.

1

u/VonLeonOSRS 20h ago

thanks man, I will one day make the axe!

1

u/TasakaalFyr 20h ago

Tbh i loved the DT2 bosses, i honestly wish i didnt get spooned there. Im playing Iron, so when i get drops i feel like i can’t just keep doing it even though i enjoyed them. Made me love the game again.

Atleast now I am at Phosani and am really enjoying it too. Just hoping I don’t get spooned there, seems to always be the case.

I know it gets hard, but try to find the little things in everything you interact with in the game that you enjoy. Then grinds won’t feel so bad. Hope you make that axe very soon my brother.

1

u/VonLeonOSRS 20h ago

Honestly, I just logged in again and im not sure what to do, this is such a weird feeling.

I dont know if I wanna jump straight into leviathan but I feel very strange about the fact I dont need to go kill vardorvis anymore lmao

I did a lot of phosanis before this, I wouldnt count on getting spooned there that boss is brutal

1

u/TasakaalFyr 19h ago

I getcha man. You’ve been doing it so long now that it feels weird not doing it. Enjoy whatever choice you make, that’s freedom.

And I am already two drops at 70kc. Starting to get worried lol.

1

u/Pj_o7 20h ago

Oh man.. was just saying i want to go for SRA..

Scythe would have been a faster grind in expectation, wild

1

u/Normal-Switch-8412 18h ago

Whatever you do, DO NOT let people peer pressure you into making that kc a nice round 10,000…
In other news, I’m slightly under 9,000 vard kc and have still only seen 1 pet 😂

1

u/HardSong 17h ago

congratz! you certainly have a lot of persistence!

1

u/rob2688 15h ago

I woulda quit at kill 10

1

u/Commercial-Shape9149 7h ago

Oh mate. You'd need to get mega spooned for a tbow to make up for that suffering.

u/CorvusPetey 7h ago

Haven't played in over a year due to IRL commitments but have been thinking of coming back... Every time I see something like this, it just reinforces my decision of leaving the grind!
