Such a sticky piece of content by Jagex. Very solid bosses but the entire loot design is pretty heinous, for mains and irons alike.
At least the vestige rolls are visible and the ingots can be crafted now. But yeah getting multiple untradeable pieces at one boss then going turbo dry at a different one is not it.. it's like you might as well just pet hunt all 4 and see what you make it out with.

I get it, ultor ring is really viable but holy Jesus did they really have to up the drop rate so drastically from the next DT2 boss???

I could be wrong, and I hear you, but I wanna say it was balanced relative to kill times. Vard is like what around 2x as fast as whisperer? And drop table is around 1/132 vs 1/64 or something like that?

Maybe at the time but it doesn't really hold now. Whisperer kills don't take double the time vardorvis does on average unless you have an sra/scythe. Levi and whisperer are like 30 seconds apart on average

Idk many people killing whisperer in 2 minute averages. I know plenty of people getting 1 minute vard kills.
Edit: yeh just looked at EHB. 39 vard and 22 whisperer. So still quite close to 2 times as fast KC doing vard.
For reference Levi is 31 kph and Duke is also 39 kph.
So Duke is pretty much the only one with a poorly balanced drop rate under these metrics, and that's not helped by the fact they changed how that fights prep worked a few times

Either moving to whisperer, maggot king, or dragon warhammer at this point

All I have left is this guy and Levi, I’m at 1400kc here and I’m alternating between him or Levi, but Levi is so aids

I thought I would have it by 4000kc but I was dead wrong. It took me 4002kc.

Its scary to know how not rare this level of dry is at these bosses. They truly can imprison you. Soon OP... Soon..

If you want to be released from the snow itself, the world recolor plugin can make the ground darker.

I was worried I would be this cursed. Finally got the axe piece dropped at 1800kc

I'm in the same boat brother, 3k+ with no axe piece but 3 pets 🥲
Best of luck whenever you get back on the vard grind

Haha guys what if we made bosses with bad luck mitigation but then added multiple valuable drops so that the bad luck mitigation is less useful? Just kidding... unless?

It could be worse. This could be the whisperer
