I’ve mostly been killing Vardorvis because I think it’s fun and challenging, but in the last 5 kills I’ve made a total of 25k (mith javelins, lots of lava runes, etc.) and definitely burned more than that in supplies. Maybe it’s a skill issue, but I am definitely in the hole quite a bit when death costs are so high and it’s super easy to die at Vard.
I think jagex will be modifing the loot table for how tough these bosses seem. It’ll be interesting what they do with the new loot drop mechanic for the ring where you get a ring (vestige?) after rolling the ring 3 times.
