Glacor Statistics
« on: January 04, 2014, 22:14:31 »
When Jagex initially released the NPC known as a "Glacor" on the 14th of September, 2011, I had only intended to casually try them out. A few thousand kills later (each one taking an average of one minute and 14 seconds), I resolved to start logging every drop so that my endeavor might bring forth information that would benefit others. I continued this until the effigy nerf which took place on February 14th, 2012. At this time, I had the largest amassed Glacor drop log that I knew of, but I never got around to compiling and publicly releasing it. Recently, I was browsing through my documents and recalled I still had this log sitting in a digital crevice of my computer. I concluded I would share it with Consentus, hoping that it may serve as an asset to one of you.

I would have enjoyed making a complete guide for you alongside these statistics, but with the advent of the EOC and all other changes that have sprung up since my killing spree, I no longer possess the knowledge required for this.  A general guide can be found here.

Notes:
-All of these numbers are still accurate to date except the ones for effigies
-I did not use the ring of wealth to increase my chances of accessing the rare drop table
-Clues were all either left on the ground or completed immediately for accurate log input
-Charms, effigies, clues, and air runes are all considered "additional drops", meaning when you receive these you still get your "normal" drop as well

Any rare drop table item : 65 : 0.08% : 426 : 5

Using this log and current prices at the time of this post, the average drop from a Glacor is worth 44,723 gp.
(This assumes you are using the shards of Armadyl to create an Armadyl battlestaff and does not include anything for clue scrolls)
Based on my research, I presume 90+ kills an hour is quite possible in RS3. This would make the average gross profits 4,025,109 gp+ per hour (with max/near max stats and above average equipment).

The experience rates per hour would be as follows:
494,235 Magic
164,745 Constitution
658,980 total


and the charms:

24 Gold
24 Green
103 Crimson
100 Blue


Although making effigies more sparse and the plummeting price of numerous items has made Glacors less enticing, they are still quite lucrative and a great source of experience. It is with confidence that I give this data a new home on the Consentus forums. Happy killing, fellow travelers.

How much time did this take you?

I love to read about combat, not so much do it

The log was started November 22, 2011 and I threw in the towel once the effigy drop rates were modified on February 14th, 2012. With the time it took to not only kill, but log, pick up drops, and bank, I would say it took around 150 hours spread over the aforementioned period.

Interesting.

I guess the luck from Glacors is different to everyone, as I have been through 163 Armadyl shards with only one Glaiven boots drop

Impressive log though

Well, within the log, I went through 2042 "dry" kills with no boots (~204 shards). During the 3k kills before the log, it took slightly under 280 shards to get my very first pair. It is remarkably easy to become discouraged at this monster due to the low drop rate.

Looked into this a bit further and adjusted the numbers. Much obliged.
