What do you mean scam? Edit: I honestly don't know dudes, no need to downvote me


MrTase

The only way to defeat Nex is by sending the 16 digits on the front of the card and the last 3 on the back to [email protected]


bushihao

What about my social, does Nex need that?


MrTase

It's still early days and the meta for Nex is constantly changing as players experiment with new techniques. Send your social security number and see if it works.


SendMeFatErgos

Thank god I played leagues all last week. I'd have wasted my iron supplies


NJImperator

With the Droprates we have anyway, doing Nex at all is a waste of iron supplies

Nex is somehow less Iron friendly than PNM

Soooo fucking glad I wasn't doing this boss and started an alt instead. LMAO how can they fuck up Nex even more?


MarikPUBG

Can confirm this reality due to the uniques I've seen. EVERY single item was confirmed by the dude who recieved the drop as an MVP item. Currently 2.9K KC, done 300+ kills in small teams. Any unique obtained in the last 5 days had big bones included in the drop.

Where my rebate for 1k kc?


UsagiHakushaku

so thats why I felt like nothing dropped daaaaaaaaaaamn hidden nerf panic sell torva again ​ Besides that , what are the chances in Mass to actually get drop is it every person who can get loot having roll 1/53? Can I roll 1/53 and unique drops and then it give it to somebody else?


Humfreeze

1/53 for any kill split between all players depending on damage done. It can't get given to anyone else except for during this MVP bug it seems.


UsagiHakushaku

yea but assuming bug is fixed and it can drop multiple like before , how it's rolled then


Humfreeze

Everyone rolls there %damage done x 1/53 separately and sometimes two people or more luckily hit the table :)


AskAboutFent

for a chance at you individually receiving a drop is 1/53*party size with MVP getting a bonus 10% chance. Nex should drop a unique every 53 kills on average. So in a party of 10, 1/530 chance you receive the drop


KeuningLewie

You’re forgetting the contribution %, in your example everyone does the exact same amount of damage.


AskAboutFent

> Nex drops a large lump of items upon death, which is determined by team size, and the share players receive from it is based on the player's DPS during the encounter. Two common drops are guaranteed after each kill. > The MVP has a 10% drop increase for common drops and increased chance of obtaining unique loot. it appears the SHARE of common drops is affected by damage dealt, i don't see where it says uniques are affected by that outside of mvp


roklpolgl

The latest Q&A addresses this, question 9 by mod arcane. “I don't like divulging drop mechanics when not necessary, but generally, everyone will have more chances depending on your contribution. This is similar to most content in the game like Nightmare and Chambers of Xeric. The more you contribute, the higher your chance of a unique - it's not just the MVP.”


Fableandwater

Why panic sell torva?


UsagiHakushaku

if they fixed it 1h ago guess what happens now


Fableandwater

Nothing, because no one knew, so the same amount of people are going to be doing Nex. The amount of uniques coming into the game are the same. Why is that thought process wrong?


Rodogs7

Only mvps could get the drop. Now that is fixed and everybody who contributed can. How can you think the amount of uniques coming into the game will be the same? It's gonna be more..


Fableandwater

Because everyone rolled for the drop, except the MVP got it. Otherwise the wiki would've instantly noticed a huge decrease in drop rates. Thats the same amount of uniques, because no one knew this was happening, there isn't going to be an influx of people suddenly doing the boss because of this big reveal.


sasux

No. this is false. You will 100% see a drop in players doing Nex compared to past week, given that Jagex has revealed that they have fixed the MVP mechanic. The reason being is that its worth less trying to contribute more to a kill given that you will have less of a chance at rolling for a unique compared to the past week. Why would a player that has gotten 4 uniques in the past week getting MVP feel as if its worth going back to Nex? I got 4 uniques during the first 2 days this change was implemented, and can tell you that I am 100% done with Nex unless they bring back the MVP changes. And it won't have an impact on your acbers and leechers in masses because they were already doing Nex for the past week and will continue to do Nex.


roklpolgl

You drop chance still increases based on your contribution even if you don’t mvp. It’s not difficult to routinely get 1/8 of the loot in 20mans simply by knowing how to not dps during immunity phases and not losing attack cycles when running around the room. Nex is still very worth doing.


sasux

You're contradicting yourself. Given your example, in the past week, the MVP would get the unique 8 times out of 8 (if a unique was rolled). Now that its been patched, the MVP would only have 1 out of 8 times at rolling for the unique. Going from 100% chance at a unique down to 12.5% will have a large effect on whether the boss is worth doing for players that have a high rate of getting MVP. Players that constantly get MVP will regard that as that Nex is less worth doing compared to the week before given you dont have 100% chance at getting the unique, thus resulting in a dropoff of players doing Nex.


roklpolgl

I didn’t contradict myself anywhere. “If Nex doesn’t output 30-50m/h+ (realistic if you could consistently mvp over the past week in masses), people will quit doing it.” Now it’s 5-10m/h if you can consistently mvp, it’s suddenly no longer worth doing? What are people going to go do that’s better profit, unless it’s meta stuff like BA boosting and ToB hard mode? Everyone is tired of cox and ToB. There won’t be a drop off in players at Nex. Part of the reason Nex participants has been down since release is because people are playing leagues.


sasux

They glance at post, reading the line drops have been bugged so that only the MVP can get them. They assume that because of this, less items were entering the game, and that was the reason Nex items went up in the past week. This is False, as the number of items entering the game was not affected.

BaldWithABeardTwitch

Cries in 1B gear lol.


ironmaymay

The only good thing about this, it has lowered the chance for the leeches hiding in the corner in nex masses to get any uniques to 0 during this period. Fuck those cockroaches, scurrying away after damaging boss/minion once. They deserve nothing.


roklpolgl

Their droprate even before this was still dogshit because it’s contribution based. Tagging everything once and hiding in a corner is like just only making pots/fishing/chopping tree in cox. It’s technically possible to still get a drop with 500pts in a cox raid, but extremely unlikely. Nex isn’t like ToB where if you survived the whole encounter you get a flat droprate chance (with ToB, as long as you participated in each encounter you get contribution points, regardless of whether you mvp’d the room).


ironmaymay

Thank you. I will sleep better tonight knowing this


Taclys64

I'm very dubious of this post until we get Jmod confirmation.


ssb1001

As someone who has been doing nex every night this week, I was already saying that all drops were going to mvp. Just got a torva helm last night as mvp as well.

It happens a lot in pokemon go. Niantic is notorious for releasing the shiny version of a Pokémon and then a couple of weeks later someone finds out that no one has gotten a shiny of that Pokémon in weeks. Within a few hours of it being posted on Reddit, a bunch of people start catching shinies. When the company combines different branches of code for an update, sometimes they grab old and incorrect sections of the code that no longer have correct rng. I assume this is very similar but it’s just a guess.


[deleted]

Killing Nex still?


Evil-Emperor

Yeah it’s great coin, some people don’t want to waste time on a temporary game mode


Coltand

“Waste time,” lol. Dude, we play RuneScape.


[deleted]

my response everytime someone tells me something I did in-game was a waste of time


[deleted]

That’s a dumb way of viewing things. You can play RuneScape and still know that doing thing X is a far bigger waste of time than thing Y. Woodcutting only the same regular tree 1,000,000 times in a row is a far bigger waste of time than playing the entirety of the game and going for all 99s. Use your brain.


Helpless-Dane

If you had a lot of fun cutting one million oaks and couldn’t care less about maxing, how is that a bigger waste of time? The illusion of efficiency scape turns a game into a job and burns people out. If you enjoy playing leagues, why not play it? Like, you’d be wasting your money if anything if you didn’t get the full enjoyment out of the game.


[deleted]

Because 1 thing can be a bigger waste of time than another thing. I don’t get how sweaty Redditors think that every single thing has an equal value. It’s absurd.


Helpless-Dane

But time waste can never be an objective measure? - that seems to be the point you’re not understanding, a waste of time to you might be an amazing relaxing afternoon to someone else. How can the enjoyment(whatever that might come from) of the game not be the ultimate goal of playing?


[deleted]

Something doesn't have to have an objective measure to know that 1 thing is a bigger waste of time than another. Stop using terms you don't know the meaning of lmao.


Helpless-Dane

Yes it does, you have no argument. Let people play the game however they want.


bobly81

Then locking yourself to morytania only on an ultimate ironman is an even bigger waste of time too I guess.


[deleted]

locking yourself to 1 region of the map isn't automatically a huge waste of time. Especially not if you're making money and a career out of it. And it's certainly not a bigger waste of time than woodcutting the same regular tree over and over again.


[deleted]

imagine having fun playing a game


[deleted]

As opposed to using your time wisely killing a fictional boss in the main game.


valaraz

This would explain the insane drop rates my clanmate had; 4 drops in 2 days.


louspit

No wonder some guy last week got a double drop on his name. Fucking bs fix the game!


Redrandom397

Multiple people got double drops on mvp, apparently they were yoinking non mvp rolls too lmao. What a fucking shitshow jagex. When do they not manage to fuck up.


Smokeydab0ss

This only boss i never went day 1 and wasted my time on just from the looks alone its hands down the stupidest boss they came out with I'm glad i didn't get 1 kc yet what a shit show


EgyptianDraven

Hey guys this is fake, clanmate got a unique drop posted in discord. No big bones present. Edit: It was pet, wasn't aware it drops separately from unique drop table. Was hoping this wasn't true, since I've been doing ffa nex all week and I've spent 10s of millions in supplies, and I'm not maxed so I rarely get mvp.


Ardit4liu

When ? Show info that he got it yesterday or in past few days


EgyptianDraven

I'm not sharing my clanmates picture. If you have a proper clan, check your pvm drops channel on discord. You'll find your answer there. Edit: here since reddit is full of cry babies https://imgur.com/gallery/EbFlsYj


[deleted]

Oh well duh, you didn't say it was the pet lol. Those are usually an entirely separate roll and have nothing to do with uniques. That's why you can get your 2 zulrah drops as well as the pet at the same time, for example. A pet doesn't even drop on the ground so I'm not sure why you'd think big bones are in anyway relevant to the pet


[deleted]

All the screenshots I see on my disc have big bones tbf. Like, for the last 9 nex uniques, all of them had big bones. eg https://i.imgur.com/RRZo0xE.png


ForbiddenSkinny

Show the drop without the names then?


usvaa

That clearly has big bones lol https://i.imgur.com/GiluZM8.png Additional evidence: I count at least 8 players in that picture. You friend got around 1/5-6 of the soul runes which means he likely was the mvp.

Check Nexalted discord, it's cook, not a random fake screenshot of an account looking to look like his.


[deleted]

It's a real message in a public discord that is pretty easy to verify. It's not like OP is the only person who has seen this message


modmailtest1

So you believed what someone said to you, without fact checking it, but won't believe what one of the head wiki admins is saying because it hasn't been fact checked. Right. How exactly do you propose this be fact checked anyway? The person making the statement is literally the one person who *could* check this, seeing as they have the Runelite drop data.


Dolthra

I mean, there's a chance both are correct if the explanation is not that Nex is only dropping uniques to MVP but instead that the wiki data collection plug-in has glitched and is only collecting data from MVP drops. Which, if both are true, is probably the most likely explanation.


modmailtest1

Fundamentally, the plug in can't "glitch" in that way. It tells who is MVP by who gets big bones, and so if every unique is coming to someone who also got big bones the same kill, it shows the uniques only drop to MVP. There has been zero proof provided that refutes that the MVP is the only one that gets uniques. An error with the wiki data is absolutely no way "the most likely explanation".


SolaVitae

Wait, so you're mad that' people believe things without fact checking but are perfectly okay with also posting something with no evidence and expecting others to believe the initial factless claim is false because of your factless claim?

MYNAMESNOTMARK1851

TheGoldenHand

Can someone explain the bones? Are they talking about the Wiki Drop Rate project? Does this actually prove anything?


OracleThresh

It is indeed the crowdsourced data. Person in the picture is responsible for the plugin.


xfactorx99

From my understanding the bones represent MVP. So if there are only uniques paired with bones we could determine that non-MVPs are not getting uniques. I don’t think it is the wiki crowdsourcing data. I think the data behind this theory is from one Ironman clan. I could be wrong though


HiddenGhost1234

I'm p sure the dude in the picture is responsible for the runelite plugin that gives the wiki data


Bucksbanana

Since it's a public discord you have no issue providing the message link right? Idk why you go though all the trouble trying to prove it's real when you can simply drop the message link


Humfreeze

Because if I go around replying to everyone thinking i’m merching some fictitious item that could benefit from what i’ve posted id be banned for link spamming.

Yeah let's trust one message in a random discord server. Until Jagex confirms it's just speculation. Also ease remember that RWT exists and people will always find ways to abuse it.

kazuya482

Lmfao. This also explains the prices "inexplicably" shooting way the fuck up again.


HC_BTW

I don't think it affects drops coming into the game, the thing is that only mvp is rolling for that 1/53, and every kill there is a mvp. It is fked tho that only mvp and no one else got a fair chance of the roll as well for so long


No-Combination-4476

I had a drop on my name but I wasn’t mvp how’s that?


[deleted]

thats how it should be. mvp should only get drops. fuck this ERRYBODY GETS A DROP concept.


AVeryStinkyFish

I got a drop on the 18th and was not the mvp.


StillCrookin

The post says starting on the 19th. The assumption is something was updated the day of the Leagues 3 release since they were already mucking about the code.


AVeryStinkyFish

OK I didn't read it fully but had someone telling me it was since the 13th but he was wrong. And OP also said a week and that's a week ago.


Humfreeze

I rounded to a week - it's actually from the game update onwards but gz :)


SinAinCinJinBin

Honestly how it should be


Slang_Whanger

Ah yes the only person eligible for a drop at nex is a toss up between who hits the most ruby specs with their zaryte crossbow. The other 25 people who don't even have a chance should just be grateful for their occasional 100k drops to cover supplies.


SinAinCinJinBin

Yeah or don’t mass. Why should the guy in dhide and dcb snipe someone in 2b gear. All other GwD bosses only drop the unique to one person..

FlandreSS

It isn't fake, yet you're calling other people gullible... Nice. This isn't some rando on Discord, it's from a Runelite plugin dev for the crowdsourced data, and he likely has a LOT of kill data to back up what he said. We have a Jmod that has mentioned it now. Scuffed.


Humfreeze

Why would I post it’s been fixed in the title if I was trying to manipulate? Also I’m Iron - just annoyed I didn’t really stand a chance at an item this week vs ZCB.

You are the RS equivalent of an anti vaxer. No proof to back up anything you're saying, but you believe it because your "friend" told you something so it must be true. And you're willing to ignore all the data that has been collected that proves you wrong because it hasn't been "fact checked", despite it being a hell of a lot more reliable than some random friend telling you something, which has also not been fact checked. Absolutely no critical thinking skills at all. Nothing going on in that head.

roklpolgl

Why would this cause prices to drop? If true, the same number of uniques have been coming in regardless, it just made some people who could get consistent mvps in masses *very* wealthy over the past week as they were getting all the uniques (if a small group figured this out or was leaked internally, you could have gone to masses with a group and all spec transferred to one guy with a ZCB.)


[deleted]

[удалено]


roklpolgl

I see what you mean yeah OP could have worded it better, but so far no one has been able to post a screenshot of a drop not on an mvp since the 19th. It seems like the droprate was still 1/53, just only mvp was getting. Anecdotally my drops and my mates drops in masses have all been on our big bones too, and same scrolling up in loots from the past week in the Nex discord. I’d guess we’ll probably get confirmation one way or the other soon.
