Someone on the Ironscape Discord created a Mortimer simulation to find out how to optimize him and the hours expected for an imbued heart. Unlike the one posted here earlier, this one accounts for individual task kills per hour, optimizing slayer cape procs and expeditious/slaughter bracelets, the fluctuating unlocks for the first 100 tasks, and more. It sounds like the Imbued Heart will take roughly 69 hours to obtain through Mortimer, divided across roughly 434 tasks. The optimal tasks to block will be Venators and Hydras. The only slayer task worth extending is Araxytes, even Abyssal Demons should not be extended. Turael boosting for slayer points to skip the worst remaining tasks should only ever be considered if you can break 300 points per hour. Expeditious bracelets should be used on nearly every task, and you shouldn’t use the slayer cape to get more of these tasks. The tasks where taking slaughters instead and trying for a slayer cape proc are: Jellies, Cave Horrors, Aberrant Spectres, and Nechryaels with a high superior loot modifier (different thresholds for each one) Dust Devils, Gargoyles, Abyssal Demons, and Dark Beasts with any superior loot modifier Araxytes and Smoke Devils regardless of modifier At ~69 hours to obtain a heart including the time to build your task streak, it should be slightly faster to use him over Aya skipping for Smokes and Araxytes at Kuradal. This does lie in Jagex’s estimated 65-80 hours, but isn’t going to be night and day compared to the ~80 hours going for a heart through Kuradal takes with similar assumptions in efficiency. When running the sim until getting a heart on 20,000 accounts, this is how many times each monster’s task was chosen: Araxytes: 742840 Smoke Devils: 723301 Crawling Hands: 654551 Cave Crawlers: 619875 Banshees: 575415 Rockslugs: 532194 Pyrefiends: 475369 Cockatrice: 410707 Abyssal Demons: 399065 Jellies: 364160 Infernal Mages: 358712 Cave Horrors: 319309 Dust Devils: 295807 Aberrant Spectres: 275245 Basilisks: 257251 Dark Beasts: 255251 Gryphons: 203366 Nechryael: 194860 Gargoyles: 193768 Kurask: 176537 Warped Creatures: 169322 Custodian Stalkers: 162138 Turoth: 95704 Aquanites: 93419 Bloodveld: 93123 Drakes: 28672 Wyrms: 23824 Hydras: 0 Venators: 0 Code and math can be checked if you find the github, Reddit won’t let me post a link. submitted by /u/GrayMagicGamma
