My Runescape Diary

I was at Lumbridge basement ready to do a trip to Tears of Guthix and there was a player with full black mystic, he was stood by the hole for the underground mine and was being attacked by a swarm. when I got there he was about 10 hp so I stood underneath him and see what I could get if he died.

I stood there for a few minutes and sure enough he died, I was stood on top of him with about 5 or 6 others so I didn't expect to get much but would have been happy to get anything for free, Phree Stuf pl0x, (Soz for my poor attempt at the noob begger language).

And looky here what I got.

Not a bad start to the day 3k alchs free of charge, he very kindly did a few for me before donating.

I got all the cash from his alchs that he had started I got all the nats, all the yew longs, rune boots and mystic hat, the top row was the items I was taking to guthix all the rest was donated.

It looks to me like I got everything, I can not be sure but I certainly got some good stuff, why did I get most if not all of the stuff.

A tip from the master, well im not a master ive only had this happen a few times when there was a lot of people around, the last time I was in world 2 and a chap died with millions of gp's worth of stuff, it all piled on the floor and all I got that time was an archer helm.

MY tip the tip from the top is to take your time and don't just click franticly, there is a click rate set by Jagex that is the optimum speed to click to pick things up, you can practice this by picking flax to get the best speed, just clicking at flax quickly will not get you more flax, try to click at flax so you always get some when you click, there are other things you can practice on but I cant think of any at the moment.

I use this principle when getting snape grass people are there clicking constantly to beat me to the grass, I wait until it appears then click, 9 times out of 10 I get it.

There is a lesson to be learned from this and its not how to benefit from peoples deaths, its how to stop people from benefiting from your death, 10k could have saved this player 3m gp by taking a simple precaution, if you are skilling or not fighting for drops wear a ring of life, they cost about 10k or you can make your own, ive always got mine on just in case I lag or log caused by my computer the internet connection or Jagex servers, instead of losing his belongings he would have teled to Fally, Lumby or Camelot and timed out safely.

So practice safe skills wear a ring of life.
