So I’ve been grinding clues since members released. I don’t get as much time to play as many, so I’ve only completed around 34 (around 22 easy & 12 medium). I’ve not got a single unique yet, despite putting in tonnes of hours. I’ve checked the source code and it looks to be around 1/24 clues for a unique. So whilst I haven’t hit double drop rate yet, I’m finding this very demoralizing.
Has anyone else found themselves in a similar boat, or am I just getting unlucky?
It took me about 20 hards to get my first unique, since then ive done another few hards and got another unique. So all is good now 
While it can be a bit demoralizing to go dry, you have to remember the historical context of clues being completely new in this version we are playing, only being released 2 weeks before. So just try to enjoy the historical significance of it. People back then could only dream of getting a clue unique with the few hours a week most people played back then.
A 1 in 24 chance is the same as 4% chance. And the more clues you do doesnt give you better odds. You could get a unique in 1 clue or 100 clues. But your sample of clues isnt enough to say the odds are off. You are just unlucky.
I understand the chance, maybe I didn’t word this well. I’m more asking if people think that the drop rate is too low (and how other people have been fairing).
The odds are not so simple, they vary by clue difficulty and they are per roll not per clue, the number of rolls varies as well.
For easy clues you get 2-5 rolls with a 1/117 chance at uniques per roll.
For medium clues you get 3-6 rolls with 1/95 chance at uniques per roll.
For hard clues you get 4-7 rolls with a 1/69(nice) chance at uniques per roll.
This can all be found in the code, but it means you’re much more likely to get uniques from higher level clues.
Also wanted to say my first ever clue (a medium) gave me an “Adam full helm (t)”, have done 3 hards and an easy since with no uniques.
Did over 35 hard clues until I finally managed to get a unique, pirate hat at clue #37
Zamorak kite and saradomin Plate in about idk 20-30 clues. Hard to keep track.
Hey OP, turns out you were correct and unique rates were in fact a bit off, they seem to have been adjusted yesterday to:
1/97 per roll for easy
1/77 per roll for medium
1/57 per roll for hard
Number of rolls hasn’t changed but hopefully this helps with the uniques!
That’s not fair. You have the cabbage RNG!
You can literally read the source to see the droprate
watch ancient youtube videos of people doing cluescrolls they were as down bad then as we are now
