Morrobeast Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 So i just saw on a twitch stream, 7 people killing Nex:AOD in 4 minutes. 4 minutes per kill = 15 kills per hr. 15 x 25380k =380700k 380700k/7 people = 54385k = 54m !?!?!?!?!? Even considering much less geared/skilled players, profit is still immense? Each kill is worth 25,380,737.76 coins purely from unique drops in a team of 7 players, assuming all players survive to receive loot; this number is split among all players in the team. However if a team decides to have 8 or more players the average value per kill from uniques drops to 20,424,207.43 coins due to the wand of the praesul and imperium core becoming less frequent.

Cam L Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Yeah, AoD is pretty good money. Link to comment
Deathcon Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 If you can reliably do telos at 800-999% enrage its like 94m/hr Link to comment
Morrobeast Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 AOD in 7 man team looks muccccccccccccccch easier than 800-999% telos though. Link to comment
Cam L Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 So, to elaborate on this a little bit, good teams can in fact do ~4 minute kills and make lots of money. To say that profit is still immense with less skilled players isn't necessarily correct. Simply getting ~7 minute kills at AoD requires a team of 7 people that have a far better understanding of the game and "skill" level (whatever you define that as in this game) than the average player. Those people are not easy to find. You have to know how to do lots of damage, and not very many people know how to do that. Additionally, with 7 minute kills you're almost halving your kills (and, as a result, profit) per hour from this 54M figure. To top it off, I would argue that a 7 minute kill for a team of "average" players is difficult to achieve, although others may disagree with me depending on their definition of an average player. Videos like this make it look easy, but there's a level of knowledge/experience/communication going on with all 7 of those players that very few people/teams possess. Link to comment
Morrobeast Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 Looks really fun, too bad i dont have better time management in uni. Link to comment
Veggie Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Yeah you need 7 pretty decent people to be able to kill AoD in 4 minutes. Like, 7 people who could almost certainly be making more money doing Telos. You won't find yourself on such a team unless you become quite good at the game and befriend people in that corner of the RuneScape community (lots aren't very friendly), or if you are a girl or are incredibly successful at pretending to be a girl. Doing AoD at half that speed (include banking time) is still pretty good money, and perhaps very good money for some players there who otherwise wouldn't be able to make that much money. And it's not a great challenge, it isn't a hard boss. Personally I don't like the boss plus if I committed to doing Telos I could make more money, and I've already got the pet. Link to comment

Ahh i see what u mean, NEX AOD is nice money but eventually over time, the gains from Telos would eventually come due to increase in experience and be more substantial. Link to comment

Yeah if it's a bunch of good players then it's more like a casual boss that just shits out money, but perhaps not the best money they could come across. For a mediocre team, there may be people who are making more money than they could possibly achieve, and on that same team there may be people there who are basically just donating their time.

Overvoltage Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 cam and veggie basically covered most of what I was going to say, but also, sub 6 minute kills are very doable with an above average team. I've had a few 5:5x's on my ironman on a team with 5-6 zerk auras and no hammer, and we're definitely not using top end gear Link to comment

This does not make it look easy at all; this looks sweaty AF Link to comment

They're just hardcore DPSing a combat dummy, a loot piñata if you will. Link to comment
