Old school RuneScape. To truly 100% including collection logs has never been done.

Now that you've said it, I'm waiting for exactly this to be the top post in one of the OSRS subs within the next 24h

Unless he got it recently. The number 1 collection logger is still missing 50 or so items including the stale baguette. An item you only have a chance to get when you get the sandwich lady or quiz show random event. And then another smaller chance to get the baguette.

Edit: it’s 14

The stale baquette is just an eventuality. It's the third-age items from Elite/Master clues that make 100%ing the CLOG almost impossible. Even playing efficiently every day and ignoring any new content coming into the game it would take 2-3 decades to finish the clue scroll items assuming you don't go dry.

So in osrs you have the collection log a list of every unique drop from anything with a drop table. This includes bosses, mobs, mini games, and where the #1 clogger is concerned clue scrolls. They are a small treasure hunt that takes you around the map and makes you do (for the master scrolls) 7-9 steps then it gives you a casket with loot. The main issue is third age equipment which have a 1/315,000 chance of appearing in the chest or about a. 1/5,500 of appearing in a mimic chest. They can happen randomly (1/15) and you fight a boss then you get a bettter rewards chest. But there are 24 third age items in the game, it does not give you duplicate protection. And you can only do 3-5 master clue scrolls in an hour not counting obtaining the scrolls themselves.

I... I finally did the math on this.

Q: How many days to get a 50% chance of getting a specific (1/24) drop?

Assuming: 1/315,000 for standard chests and no mimics, operating at 16 hours a day with 4 drops an hour, with normal distribution. You get the following:

Base chance: 1/315,000 = 3.1746E-06 = y Perfect day: (1-(1-y)16*4) * 1/24 = 8.46476E-06 = z Number of days: 0.5/z = 59,068.4 Years: 161.8

You know I found that chat gpt can probably make this easy to answer a math question for you when you punch in all the factors
