Am I just increadibly unlucky?

Recently I've found myself searching for clues, and since I'm still relatively new I've been training my combat as well as searching for clues. I'd say I've come across 7 level one clues in the past few days, however, out of the seven, the only thing even remotely valuable has been a black platebody trim. One of the clues was so bad as to only have 23 air runes and a magic ammy (I've gotten 4 magic ammy's from clues so far, they get rather irritating after a while).

Anyway, is this common to have a lot of really bad clues, or am I just unlucky? And should I give up with level ones and start going for level 2?

well, the chance for getting any valubale items at lvl 1 clues are very very small. i call it waist of time to do any other clues but lvl 3's. but yeah, try lvl 2 clues and see how you like them. and your not the only unlucky guy, i have made like 3-4 lvl 3 clues in a row without getting anything better then a rune pick...

lesser demons dont drop clues, actually, so gd's for lvl 3 or i suggest jogres for lvl 2, they seem to drop clues the most for me, and they drop food making it easy to train there for a long time

where do you get this lvl clue from? whats the max level? do you choose it? or is it written near the clue.

1. lvl 1 clues give u black armour, lvl 2 addy, lvl 3 rune. These could be normal trimmed or gilded (if thats wut its called (g)). Along with this, you will get some other items at random (mainly runes).

2. Lvl 1 clues are dropped by only SOME lvl 1-19 monsters (i.e. men), 2 are dropped by only SOME lvl 20-70 monsters (i.e. guards), lvl 3 are dropped by only SOME lvl 71+ monsters.

3. Clues are random and somewhat rare and you don't get that good items from them (unless your lucky)...
