Hey all, as you know, one of the Sizzling Summer promotion rewards, if you remained a member for all of August and September, is the ability to choose 4 out of the Choose Your Fate items. One of these items happens to be an Instakill dart that, when used, 1 hit k0s whatever foe you use it on(outside of PvP obviously).
It's been confirmed that the item can be used on Jad, QBD, and Nex among many of the other monsters, the latter being one of the most popular choices right now(apparently with 'lines' outside of her for people to take turns). However, what a lot fail to realize is that, like other fighting situations, if multiple people happen to use them at the same time, only one person gets the drop while the others lose the dart(s) they used.
This is just a warning to people who may read here yet neglect to read RSOF(though it's common sense really); It is not a bug.
If anyone wants to use theirs on popular monsters, Nex especially, I'd highly recommend you wait until things die down before doing so, just so you know your dart(s) are safe.
Tl;dr Like other killing scenarios, only one person will get the drop if multiple use their darts on a foe at once, thus making the unlucky ones lose their dart(s) during the situation. So because of this, I'd recommend you wait until all of this nonsense dies down so you won't have to take the risk.
Honestly imo, if anyone was stupid enough to think that successfully using the instakill dart on a monster when it is being attacked by multiple players will guarantee the loot is yours, they deserve to lose their darts. People always bitch back saying 'Why would I bother to read the RS site?' Well obviously so you don't go full retard and do something that the website specifically says you should avoid. You know why you should actually 'bother to read the RSOF'? So that you don't look like a tard when you don't know something, ask a stupid question, or do something stupid when it all could have been avoided if they had just taken a few minutes to read the RS website.
And no OP, I'm not talking specifically to you.
Why would I take offence to that, lol? I'm not one of those people who did such a thing, was just pointing it out to those who have yet to use them but may turn out to be in the same situation otherwise.
It's especially amusing to see people ask a question like 'so what was the update about?' after a system update...when it's clearly in the top article of that day on the home page.

Regarding this whole topic and what you've just said;
People seem to be very lazy and if they do something stupid they try to blame it on something immediately, heaven forbid they made a mistake. This is just another case of them trying to find a scapegoat instead of owning it. Also with the system update and asking what that is all about, that just makes me facepalm. They think its easier to blabber around asking people about what it was about when in 10 seconds tops they could have navigated to www.runescape.com and clicked on the top article. Society today... It's going down hill.
