I made a suggestion yesterday that the demi boss in gauntlet should drop their corresponding item like in osrs (dark beast dropping bow string ect).

 

This was declined because "Demi bosses do not guarantee the correct item (orb/string/spike) on each death. They only guarantee a weapon frame (which has been fixed in the next update)."

 

This is incorrect. They do guarantee the correct item on the first death. 

 

OSRS wiki:

 

The perfected weapon upgrades, i.e. the crystalline bowstring, crystal orb and crystal spike, are dropped by the demi-bosses:

• The bowstring is a guaranteed drop from the Crystalline Dark Beast.
• The orb is a guaranteed drop from the Crystalline Dragon.
• The spike is a guaranteed drop from the Crystalline Bear.

If the same kind of demi-boss is killed twice, the player is guaranteed to receive a different perfected weapon upgrade than the demi-boss's typical drop. Because of this change, players will obtain all the perfected weapon upgrades by killing three minibosses of any kind.

The demi-bosses only spawn on the perimeter (outside edge) of the map.

 

So I would like to suggest this again because it makes the corrupted gauntlet a lot more consistent, given the fact a few seconds can decide whether or not you will complete it.

Support!  These is a much needed change to improve guantlet QoL!

This is a bug that was suppose to be fixed. If youll notice, the incorrect item only drops when a weapon frame is not dropped as well. 1/3 of the time the correct item drops without a weapon frame

The way your previous suggestion was worded, I misread "don't have a 100% first drop rate of the correct item" to mean that the NPC's should drop their item every kill, which is why it was initially declined. That being said, this seems to be a bug rather than a suggestion, so you'll need to make a bug report and I'll make the necessary changes when I get the chance.

Your suggestion has been accepted.
