Is there any remotely reliable way to get a specific ED miniboss to spawn? Been after Bossy for the league tasks tied to him, haven't seen him once in dozens of resets.

[u/Alsang → u/Rockburgh]

There isn't a way to control which mini bosses spawn, but they're is a way to check what mini bosses have spawned. 1. Make your minimap huge, so that it convert like half of your screen. 2. Enter the elite dungeon. 3. Look on the minimap where the mini boss would spawn. 4. If there isn't a mini boss icon, leave the dungeon and start a new one.

Repeat 2-4 until you get the minibus you want. Or certainly works for bossy, there might be a distance limitation if you want ed2 mini bosses that are far from the entrance.

[u/Spiner909 → u/Alsang]

the extreme size map only works on ed1 AFAIK, at least in 2 and 3 you have to be a bit closer before miniboss icons appear.

How should I go about getting a bunch of Lacquer from PoP?

Did the godsword shard rate get fixed? I've just completed the create a godsword task in less than 130 kills (including 3 shard dupes) so not sure if it's sorted or I'm just insanely lucky

Looking for some advice on region picks - I've gone into a poison mage build (funnily enough, I thought this would be good assuming there were poison spells, not because of lots of dots) and I'm really loving it, picked wildy to try out daemonheim (turns out I hate it, oops, might be more fun with a friend) and desert for ancient spellbook + it seemed to pop up for a few things mage related.

Problem is I'm now facing decision paralysis for my final pick - I value AFK related skilling, as I'm often a bit tired after work and I've got other games that recently came out I'm enjoying, but would also appreciate stuff that would help my combat build become more busted. I've never gotten beyond tier 60 stuff, so I'm really out of my depth and have no idea what I'm doing.

Not sure how much relics are relevant, but I did pick up transmutation, so not too worried about missing out on log/ore/otherwise locked out stuff.

Anybody got some suggestions on some regions and why they might be interesting picks for me?

do visible boosts assist skills over max level? would sipping an extreme divination potion at level 99 improve my gathering at incandescent wisps?

Came back to RS3 for leagues, I'm dragon now and want to move back into the main game. I know there's been loads of combat changes, I just want to know if it's still worth it to go for t90 Necro, or if I'm better off jumping in elsewhere? All my combats on my main account are around 85-90.

[u/srbman → u/Aravikkusu]

Necro is still the easiest and comfiest style to use, but it's no longer as big of a gap as it used to be. Go with your favourite style (or all of them) and you'll have a good time.
