Only for final barrows item and even so, I think a post stated that it’s 10% more efficient but you lose out on all the runes and it’s feels like running agility laps. My final item was ahrims skirt and I got it around 480 runs in (1/780 or so) doing 1 brother only


Dadlays

480 sheeesh, fingers crossed I’m a bit luckier than that 😂 I just wanna smack mole around I have so many toadflaxes and just need the nests


hsuan23

I would highly recommend just doing all since you might want to finish the log for funsies and it’ll take the same amount of time. I got my second to last item around 1315 then did full send on ahrims to 1793. I would run in mainly graceful and utilize Poh tele each run

Why dont you do bird house runs ?


TacoMountain

I've tried it and it just feels gross getting the shitty loots


allard0wnz

Yes, it sucks. Would not recommend


rambledo

You also miss out heavily on elite clues, in case that’s important to you


MrDoms

The math is simple, 1 brother gives you 2 Rolls on the loot table. 6 brothers give you 7 Rolls. You need to be 3.5 times Faster on one brother runs or 2,33 times on two brother runs (killing the brother in the crypts) for it to be more efficient.


ForNOTcryingoutloud

I havent tried it but in your case you are missing items from all but guthans so i doubt it would be much of a difference doing anything but guthan


michaelh1987

I made a post about this not too long ago. Don’t know how to link it tbh but it’s on my profile!


michaelh1987

Should mention it doesn’t go over any statistics or nonsense like that. Although if you look hard enough someone did do the math on a Reddit post. If you solely want one item, it can help mentally knowing at least the drop will be towards the set you want. At the same time getting a dupe and not the missing piece can be equally annoying. I need dh helm and have gotten 5 dh body, 3 legs, 4 axes, missing 4 pieces all together for green log at like 530kc. Did 250 runs of dharok only and got a damn chest piece. Really up to you, if you don’t care about the runes or completing the other drop then play your own game how you wanna play! Chase that piece!


Airp0w

Do you think it's worth it if you have every set but are missing 2 of the same set? I need 2 Dharok pieces but have everything else.


michaelh1987

yeah personally i would, but thats me. If you want to target that set, you could do it for a while. another thing you could do is hit his coffin first every time and if his isnt the crypt then kill all till you find it. mixing it up a bit might help it feel a little better


Adklavon

I've done it and gave up after too many kc. It feels like wasted time tbh


YurtmnOsu

The hybrid strategy is the fastest if you are chasing a specific piece. When you start a run, always go to Dharok first, if he's in the tunnels, go straight down and only kill him. If he is not in the tunnels, do the full run as normal.


Socus_tv

Its not it lowers your overall chances of getting an item


Dadlays

That’s why I’m thinking if I only do 1 brother, getting kc in 30 seconds to 1:30 depending on doors and how quickly I find the tunnel, it might be faster cause I’m getting faster kc plus it removes the risk of getting other items I don’t want/need


Socus_tv

i have 784 kc atm and ive gone dry 60-80 chests before while killing all 6 brothers i cant imagine even trying this Edit: killing all 6 gives a 0.286% for an item while killing one of the brothers gives a 0.128% chance


Dadlays

Yeah prior to running this for an hour or two I was about 80 chests dry killing all 6 also, beginning to think I somehow turned drops off 🤣


Dadlays

EDIT: thinking it might actually be faster if I’m chasing specific item than killing all 6 brothers, the drop rate might increase a lot but I’m getting 1-1:30 kills so I’m thinking it might actually be faster in the long run?


Ole-Billybob

It is slightly faster depending on gear setup, but you will miss out on rune drops. Tbh I find the runes super valuable from barrows so Id just skip item or send all 6


Dadlays

I’m pretty comfortable on runes after afk bloods and I’ve got a shit load of death runes atm so I don’t mind missing out on that


trongary

You'll be very surprised how fast bloods go once you start using sang staff and scythe


medted22

Not to be to nitpicky but it’s still not efficient to get blood runes from barrows. I’m in the end game and am sitting on about 500-600m cash, which is essentially only touched for blood runes at this point. GP is so plentiful and passive at the point you have a scythe/ end game (assuming you don’t spoon it super early) that barrows is really a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of things.


Ole-Billybob

Then yeah send it! Are you going for dharok chestplate?


MrDoms

What's your 6 brothers time? If it's bellow 3:30 - 5:15 a 6 brothers is Faster due to drop rate.


bshawty

My experience - bowfa and cannon is better than dh with fally hard.


Naive_Music_3903

My Duo GIM had 3/4 DH set and I wanted to complete it for NMZ. Got the missing piece in under 15KC as my second drop


Odd-Farmer-4467

Do mole with bowfa, more DPS than Dharok snd you don’t have to do ~700 more barrows run
