Hii, y'all. Just thought I'd make a log of all the drops I got from doing the 26k trick, so you can decide if it's worthwhile or not.
What is "The 26k Trick"?
Basically, the 26k trick is boarderline cheating, taking advantage of the new drop system.. It's "not in the spirit of the game" but not classified as cheating. People have been known to make 17m+ if a dragon fire sheild is dropped, so, it can be very profitable. However, a lot of it depends on luck, and alot of it depends on "Earned Potential" (You see the little "EP" in the bottom right of your screen on a PvP world?)
How do you take advantage of this trick?
Well, yeah, there's not really much more to say. Hope you get rich quick...

How do you take advantage of this trick?
[*]Well, firstly, you need to gain drop potential, to do this, you need to stand around in a hotzone with 75k. I suggest the upstairs of one of the houses in Varrock or low level wilderness. 80-100% is best, this could take a while though (1hr-1hr 30mins.) For more info, I STRONGLY recommend checking out xwinx's guide on EP, here. =]
[*] Secondly, you need to get a partner that is within your combat range. Try to go for a partner with a higher combat level, as generally, the drop is better when you defeat someone with a higher combat level than yourself.
[*] Right, this is where the fun starts. Decide who is being killed first, this person should have 26,003 gp in their inventory. The person doing the killing should have 76,003 gp + a wepon and some food in theirs.
[*] The killer, with 76k in their invent, kills their partner (the guy with 26k in their pack), I suggest in a hotzone, but the back of lumbridge castle is popular.
[*] The roles are reversed. Repeat the killing 2-3 times. Then go back to the begining
