During the week myself and DB both work full time so we don’t get a huge amount of time to play. The start of the week was a struggle; still endlessly cancelling slayer tasks to get cave Kraken tasks so we can do a decent amount of Kraken boss. We have both done some normal, and some boss kills. Unfortunately, still by mid-week we had not received our trident or an additional tentacle. Our hopes and dreams of receiving this god forsaken staff had basically been reduced to a ‘jar of dirt’.
Knowing a lot of other ironmen had also gone very dry of this item, we kept our spirits as high as we could and carried on the grind. I think the most frustrating part was seeing other players have the RNG on their side and getting trident after trident below our kill counts. I Know I don’t have to tell anyone how frustrating an item is when you have been wanting so much to progress the accounts.
Being on this grind has taken us away from doing herb runs which in hindsight we should have kept doing them every hour at least to make sure we stocked up more on potions; however, our grind mentality kept us in Krakens lair.
DB had gotten himself a little hobbie at work that would help us on our way. Even though he could not play all day he could afk as many dense essence as he possibly could. When getting home, he was then able to runecraft all the essense into bloods hopefully getting his trident soon (DB being over 200 boss kills in front of me) then giving to rest to me.
The time had come to achieve my trident. It was a sunny Wednesday evening. As usual I was on discord with DB and on my second kraken task of the day, my 313th boss kill, I received the trident!
I was so excited I picked it up and just went silent until DB saw over yell what had happened. It would be fair to say he was happy for me but wasn’t too happy about all his blood runecrafting and the fact he has 478 kills in at the time.
The accuracy I had noticed just purely on the last 28 kills of kraken I had left on task was incredible. Needless to say, I was very excited to be now using the trident which would now allow me to go back to slayer and do extreme zulrah slayer tasks. I will still be killing kraken to get my chance at the tentacle and also hopefully another trident for DB if has not received one by then.
HOLD THE F*** UP!!!
!!WELL HOLD ME DOWN AND CALL ME PARTY PETE!!
DB screamed through the mic as he had just got his trident on kc 484! Less than 10 minutes after receiving my own. Today was the day we would always remember.
As I am writing this all-out DB receives a second! I repeat a second trident on kc 487! What was happening was insane! The RNG came through.
Both receiving the trident in such a close period of time has given us a huge sense of motivation to grind more through this game mode. We will now BOTH continue to look onwards and upwards.
