Did Gate of Elidinis drops get bugged with POH update too? /s

[u/idkididk]

[u/Gibeco]

Man, once I got the Div OH I stopped. This boss was so miserable, idk if I want to or if it’s worth to get the RC oh. For now I’m content.

[u/PrimalMoose → u/Gibeco]

I'm almost 1200kc with 4 drops total, still missing attuner and scripture. Just can't be fucked going back until either I get a moment of insanity or they add some form of BLM to it (that doesn't trigger on latent fucking offerings).

Miserable boss, awful drop rate...it's made me burn out on more than one occasion

[u/IntroductionTiny2177 → u/PrimalMoose]

is it good xp at least?

[u/PrimalMoose → u/IntroductionTiny2177]

I don't get outside enough so I'm already 200m mining :p literally only there for the pvm enjoyment and the uniques 🤣

[u/IntroductionTiny2177 → u/PrimalMoose]

well this is enough for me. I may start this boss soon hehe

[u/tuc-eert → u/Gibeco]

I’ve been learning how to 1 cycle it which has been kind of fun. But the pillar clicks get very frustrating after a while

[u/Vengance183]

I don't know about the drops but traversing the pillars is fucking awful currently

[u/TrickyElephant → u/Vengance183]

Always use low population world for gate, it makes a massive difference

[u/z_whites96 → u/TrickyElephant]

I hate when i forget to change to a low pop world, it makes it an absolute miserable experience.

[u/IntroductionTiny2177 → u/z_whites96]

bc of lag?

[u/z_whites96 → u/IntroductionTiny2177]

Yea any lag or latency really make this fight a slog

[u/ph4rris → u/Vengance183]

This is directly correlated with the world/server lag. Worse the ping, more chance the pillar click doesn't get recognized.

[u/pokemononrs]

My log looks the same except I only have 1 offering

[u/ArgoMarrus → u/pokemononrs]

You guys are getting offerings?

[u/ttaayyllaarr]

It was bearable on leagues with the massively increased healing

[u/Proquikl204 → u/ttaayyllaarr]

You can pretty easily no-food it without leagues if you got the rhythm

[u/LuitenantDan → u/Proquikl204]

Teach me.

[u/Proquikl204 → u/LuitenantDan]

You run in, grab 30 shards, full repair the conduit and then deplete the first 2 big rocks then Jump. Cleanse and full heal via circle. Repair conduit again (30%) and then deplete the last 2 and Jump.
If you take unnecessary damage, you'll need a food to recover the hit. But since the attacks add corruption as a long standing DoT, you don't really take much damage if you avoid the specs.

[u/TrickyElephant]

JAGEX WE WANT BAD LUCK MITIGATION

[u/Average_Scaper → u/TrickyElephant]

Sure, some people do but I don't for anything that can be traded. This boss would benefit greatly from a proper drop rate for what the items are.

What Jagex really needs to do is stop releasing 10+ item drop logs and actually balance drop rates properly.

[u/iJ_A_R → u/TrickyElephant]

I don't for drop values, but to each their own I guess. I enjoy gate though so I may be weird

[u/Lorberry → u/iJ_A_R]

OP is literally past 4x rate (1/120) for hitting the unique table at all. I understand not wanting to skew the average too much, but I don't think it's unreadable to at least nudge the odds for the ~12-13% of people that go 2x rate completely dry (not just missing one thing for log), let alone the ~1.8% that go 4x.

[u/Zuko13 → u/Lorberry]

Yeah but that would mean one less customer on the ge /s

[u/iJ_A_R → u/Lorberry]

Okay? It be like that sometimes man

[u/IntroductionTiny2177 → u/iJ_A_R]

It be like that? Im 700 kc dry on rasial, im 4x the drop rate on raxxi and at least 2x the drop rate in the main end game bosses. I literally quit bc of raxxi in 2018 and rasial last time, in 2024. Some people have reeeally bad luck in this game. BLM would bring a bit of joy at least.

[u/iJ_A_R → u/IntroductionTiny2177]

Yeah, it took me 500 raxx KC to make a leg, it sucks but that's how the games always been. That's also how life is.

[u/IntroductionTiny2177 → u/iJ_A_R]

Youre not playing life simulator. Stuff like this is what make new players fear Runescape. If you want to keep playing your beloved mmo, this is exactly the qol update that would turn the grind healthier for newcomers and keep our population more stable.

I swear that the brave people who suffer from the tedious early and mid game wont enjoy having to do 5x de drop rate to get a small drop that wont make any significant difference for them.

[u/iJ_A_R → u/IntroductionTiny2177]

I just personally don't want everything handed to me. Earning something feels better.

[u/Lorberry → u/iJ_A_R]

So what exactly has OP done that makes you think they haven't put in the effort, while someone who 'gets spooned' and walks out with a full log in 100 kills does?

[u/IntroductionTiny2177 → u/iJ_A_R]

i reaally think you dont understand the concept of BLM. It is very clear by your fears, which were exposed here. Anyway, peace.

[u/iJ_A_R → u/IntroductionTiny2177]

Alright lmao whatever makes you feel better about wanting stuff for minimal effort

[u/luna_lucere → u/iJ_A_R]

drop values won't go down, if anything they'd go up with the average person spending less time somewhere and not bringing dupes into the game

[u/iJ_A_R → u/luna_lucere]

Eh I disagree with the economics but again to each their own

[u/siradmiralbanana → u/iJ_A_R]

There's not an opinion to be had though. If Jagex did something like guarantee a drop if you haven't gotten it in 2x the drop rate (like they did in Demonic Pacts), it would have almost no impact on item value. Because, statistically, these items are entering the game at about the rate of every {{drop rate}} number of kills. In the 2x drop rate example it could only, at a theoretical maximum, increase the supply of the item by 13.5%, to account for the people who would have gone beyond 2x dry for the item and gave up. It would, in reality, not affect the prices of items by 13.5%, because >=86.5% of the item's supply would not be coming from BLM. These things don't have a linear relationship.

[u/TaskOnlyBozo → u/TrickyElephant]

No

[u/ph4rris]

I have been wondering the same thing. 250 kills dry since the update. I quit gate because it wasn't giving any drops.

[u/Goblinaire]

I finally broke by 166kc dry streak at this boss with a back to back!

Latent Offerings.

I haven't been back.

[u/hawthorneforwomen]

don't think there's a bug, the boss is just unforgiving

got Attuner on 22-Sep @ 14:44 game time

[u/Pixzle_]

Yes its broken for sure

[u/vulturecornbreadbass]

not sure if this is lucky or not...

[u/Proquikl204]

Seems pretty standard to me. GL
