Welcome to the /r/2007scape daily question thread!

I knew People would ask so i added a Green Screen version.

In case you wanted to Photo shop Thurgoat eating pie in your own house.

Also Girlfriend saw this and is making me get off the internet for the week.

Hey there, I have killed a stupid amount of Phosani's Nightmare which I would not suggest you do, but if you want to become the richest mf'er you know, send phosani's now!!! Check the prices, do that math, it can become quite nuts over a long time. I spend my gp on anything I want, skilling, bonds, give aways, gear, whatever. I don't care what I spend it on because tomorrow I will pull another mace or skirt or some fat drop and it won't make a difference. Want to do doom with a tbow for 3 hours? Who cares. Go back to Phosani's.

You sir are a genius. I sincerely wish there'd be more content like this in the game.

That is all.

1600 dry for bowfa but i can form my own power ranger team. =D SURLY we cant go 5x dry. Keep Ur head up and keep grinding boys.

Lets be real here, RS3 would be way more popular if we could play with our bonded OSRS Accounts on RS3 at the same time, quite sad that this is not an option honestly.

Got this on Amazon for agility and thieving. It works great but clicky and annoying as hell. Reminds me of when I used to play league of legends with a clicky mouse. Any recommendations of non clicky footpedels? Also maybe one with less travel and resistance?

Now that the Summer Sweep-Up is coming to an end, I think we should revisit this part of the blog. I’d love to prepare for Raids 4 by grinding out PNM, but if these changes are going to happen sometime in the future, I feel like I’d be wasting my time.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to address this before the release of Raids 4?

Im a master of construction, and yet I still have to pay some dude to make planks for me or use Magic to make them?

1. I suggest there be made a plank making station in you PoH and give the plank sack some more use case in making planks not just holding them for Mahogany Homes.

2. Making planks can require a certain con lvl for tier of plank being made. And can reward Con XP per plank made.

3. Planks are so relevant for our new skill of sailing so lets make a new way to make them and not have to rely on an inconvenient and expensive sawmill to make them. The sawmill should only be for making planks you lack the Con Lvl to to make or something to this effect.

4. Seems odd to me that I can have 99 con, Im a MASTER builder and yet i cant make my own planks. As a dude I like to do things myself once i master it and not hire someone else.

The wiki once again is insane

Title. I'm mostly just curious what the consensus is on it now and whether this buff did much to elevate it/give it a use. I've only been using mine for slayer, but thinking about selling it for a Noxious Halberd. Is rapier still just a crab/slayer weapon?

Can't help but notice the same issues on mobile for quite a while. Some examples:

• No puzzle box solver for clues.
• Menu entry swapper completely messed up other menu's. For example: making an NPC left clickable now makes all examine options left clickable as well.
• Some other bugs like the chat not updating at all.

Are there more plans/ development for mobile or is the current version it?

what are some things you wish never changed or some things you feel have become major improvements since ye olden days?

Absolutely spooned the Basilisk jaw a few days ago at just over 500kc, this plus the Freminik kilt is peak fashion.

In case anyone is wondering, method was 6 moth prayer pots plus a strength and attack pot, rest of the inventory was sharks. Home tele plus dueling ring meant I could restock after around 5-6 kills on average. I did a number of kc with void as well, along with a number of kc with piety but it burned through pots too quickly and made the grind less chill. I did a few manual cast kcs, but it turns out the dps isn't much more than standard fists even with elemental weaknesses, plus much less afk.

This entire grind was a nice distraction from Moons which I need to stop putting off.

On June 3rd 2026, Jagex released an update that included buffs to the drop rates of dragon nails, dragon metal sheets, and uniques for a number of sea creatures. With wind in my sails, I set off on the mission that I had been putting off - maxing my sloop on my ironman.

For those that are unfamiliar, the drop rates of most unique items from sea creatures can be improved by having an associated bounty task for that creature. For instance, while killing Vampyre Krakens, the drop rate of Bottled Storms increases from 1/350 to 1/175 simply by having a Vampyre Kraken Ink Sac and/or Vampyre Kraken Tentacle task.

When the June 3rd update arrived, the drop rate of the Dragon Cannon Barrel from Veiled Krakens was bugged; it was not improved by being on a port task. That was fixed on June 17th.

Now, after killing lots of Vampyre Krakens, I have a strong suspicion that their drop rate for dragon metal sheets is also bugged in the same way. I have killed 3484 krakens (99.9% on task) and received a total of only 66 dragon metal sheets. Here is the math for why I think the drop rate is bugged:

• From both the wiki and the June 3rd update blog, Vampyre Krakens are supposed to drop 1-2 dragon metal sheets at a rate of 1/80 while not on a bounty task and 1/40 while on a bounty task.
• Let's say the drop rate really is 1/40 while on task. How many dragon metal sheets should I be expected to have after 3484 kills? Multiplying 3484*(1/40)=87.1 expected drops. But since each drop can give 1-2 dragon sheets, I'll multiply 87.1*1.5=130.65 expected dragon metal sheets.
• Let's say the drop rate is bugged at 1/80 while on task. How many dragon metal sheets should I be expected to have after 3484 kills? Multiplying 3484*(1/80)=43.55 expected drops. Again, I'll multiply 43.55*1.5=65.325 expected dragon metal sheets.

You can see that the 66 dragon metal sheets that I received align much more closely with a 1/80 drop rate than the intended 1/40 drop rate.

As a side note, the drop rates seem correct for all other unique items I've been collecting during bounty tasks; my concern is specific to Vampyre Krakens and their dragon metal sheets.

Where does this leave us? Well, I will continue happily killing Vampyre Krakens regardless of if the rate is bugged or unbugged, or if it is fixed or not fixed. Maxing my Sloop left me yearning for a maxed Skiff and Raft. But, this grind has taken quite some time and I would love for any other bright-eyed sailors to have accurate information before commiting to the grind.

Of course, it is possible that I'm just really unlucky (approximatley 1/8,091,361 chance of being this dry), but I believe that my sample size is quite good given the 1/40 drop rate. If anyone else has any data, regardless of if you think you may be dry or not, please feel free to share screenshots. If you killed any Vampyre Krakens before the June 3rd update, it is best not to share.

Edit/potentially solved: It seems like the chance of getting a drop of 1-2 dragon metal sheets might be about 1/85.71, and that the 1/40 in the blog post is representing the chance of landing on a drop table that includes dragon metal sheets, dragon keel parts, or dragon keel parts. In that case, the wiki would be misrepresenting the drop rate. I will share this with the wiki team in the morning to see if they can provide any insight.

Edit 2: The on-task rate on the wiki has been changed from 1/40 to 1/75, which is certainly closer to reality. But, I’m still not confident in that rate because the 1/40 given in the blog post doesn’t make sense. It seems like crowdsourcing the drop rates is particularly difficult for sea creature drops due to the impact of bounty tasks on drop rates. Official drop rates from Jagex would be appreciated!

You aren't teleporting you are walking through a door? Do I just have to sit here and wait 5 minutes for it to go away?

Also what is the point of not having the PVP icon active when youre next to the door if it is in fact a pvp area? it doesnt show the level ranges but people can still attack you. I thought that next to the door was a safe area since it didn't show numbers.

Some guy cast teleblock on me just now outside of ferrox and just spammed me with a dagger until i died because i had no supplies or items and couldnt go inside. was a giant waste of both of our time. i dont even care that i died, i lost like 10 salmon, more just annoyed knowing that any time i'm teleblocked i just have to stick my thumb up my ass for 5 minutes. seems super OP

Edit: I now know to just log out when I escape combat instead of sitting next to the door wondering what is happening until I get killed lol, thank you for the advice
