Double drops this weekend

2012-05-17 15:15:32

From Saturday to Monday inclusive, a wide selection of bosses and other enemies throughout RuneScape will reward you with double drops - your swag bag’ll be fuller than ever before, as you’ll find a duplicate of everything looted from the beasts below:

God Wars: Creatures and Bosses
God Wars II: Nex
King Black Dragon
Kalphite Queen
Dagannoth Kings
The Giant Mole
Glacors
Chaos Tunnels: all monsters, except Bork
Revenant Dungeon: all monsters
Stronghold of Security: all monsters

There’s also a chance to receive double drops from the Barrows brothers, and from the Barrows chest.

Facing down a brutal boss is all the better with a friend or two at your side, so be sure to get involved with the RuneScape Community Team’s Stomp the Bosses event this weekend.

OMFG, I am sooooo exited. The bad thing is that I am not a member and even if i was, I have never been to any of the p2p bosses before so i might not last long. I wonder how many people are going to be lucky enough to get double drops of good items…

Hope you get a good double drop, if you do then keep one and sell the other. With the money you get from selling the other, you can buy your way to a 99.

bandos will be completed packed in every single world…

2012-05-17 15:54:45

Babdos will be so packed… you will not get a world at all… try a foreign server. That is definately your best shot.

2012-05-17 16:01:33

I will continue to bot lol…

Jokester

2012-05-17 16:07:07

Yeah I won't be going bossing at all. Except maybe some corp. Corp should be fairly empty this weekend.

You can't even find a lootshare world on regular days without a team inside and a team outside the door waiting. Yeah some high level proper go to Nex but not all of then. Im still not going and you probably shouldn't waste your time at Bandos, the drops are getting pretty low in price anyway.

Double charms at waterfiends in the chaos tunnels. If I weren't 99 summoning, that's where I would be ;)

Either killing for charms in the tunnels or swarming barrows.

WOOO! Hopefully The copy of the waterfiends script I have works nicely x), I'll be hopefully getting massive charms this weekend :).

I've never done waterfiends for charms, is it usually crowded? or with this event, do you think all worlds will be packed? I just hope my bot doesn't run into trouble :(

edit: also does anyone know if the triple charm of Familiarisation stacks with the double charm weekend? (another words, so instead of getting 1 blue charm drop, I'd get 1 X 2 (double drop) X 3 (Familiarisation reward) = 6 blue charms?)

Thanks :)!

Andres

2012-05-17 22:55:55

I did fiends at the chaos tunnels during the last double drop weekend, and it wasn't very crowded.

Please keep in mind that the chaos tunnels are multicombat. This makes the fiends there very dangerous because they can pile you.

I don't know if double charms will stack with familiarisation (I was curious about this myself).

no luke i dont think it stacks. but still. 2x charms is worth while :D

Dang. And yeah they are definitely worth it!!, but I still hope your wrong and that it does stack :p. Since your not sure, ima keep searching :D

edit: WOOO HOOO! Found this on runewiki

" During the "More Loot = More W00t" event from the 12th November to the 14th November 2011, the triple charm bonus would stack with the double drop bonus (in select areas) allowing one to get 6 times the standard amount of charms. For example, killing Fire giants in the Chaos tunnels would get you 6 charms instead of the standard one charm per drop. "

SO I'm thinking it will stack this time too :D!!

2012-05-18 02:55:55

barrows is the only thing worth doing cause you wont get sawrmmed by other players or teams :p

2012-05-18 03:55:55

My guess is they did this so all the people that mass invested in torva and other rare armours (because of the new monster is being released) hence tova will plummet and invested will lose lots of mil ;D

Well played runesacpe….well played

I don't understand Jagex.. Membership price raise, buyable wheel spins, double drop rate, exp lamps, its Like they're trying to get everyone maxed and rich (is the game closing soon or something)?

corp isnt even double drops and my ely dropped 6m 2day :(

Andres

2012-05-19 13:42:22

If anyone is interested, I just got done doing a waterfiends task. Familiarisation does stack with the double drops at the chaos tunnels. I was getting 6 charms instead of 1!

At the end of the 40 minutes for familiarisation, I had 588 crims and 12 blues. Epic.

This sucks. The stronghold isn't double dropping.
