Hello everyone,

 

On behalf of the staff team, I'd like to wish all of you a Happy Easter!
 
The Easter Event is now live, and you can hop over to Falador to start the event. Today's update is primarily for the Easter Event and thus is not as large as our usual updates, but we've included a few other content updates and bug fixes which can be found below. In the meantime, we're still working hard on RuneLite and will have more information for you guys shortly :)
 
Lastly, we've also added the limited-time Easter box item to the store which is the only way to obtain the Bunny outfit, as well as some other cool Easter items.

  • Easter Event:
    • The 2020 Easter Event is now live on Alora!
      • Teleport to Falador or speak with one of the bunnies in Edgeville to be teleported directly to The Disappointing Gelt, who will explain to you how he accidentally opened a portal from a rabbit dimension and the bunnies starting pouring into Alora.
        • Help Gelt close up the portal and you'll be rewarded with:
          • Magic Egg Ball:
            • You'll be able to ask the Magic Egg Ball questions such as: "What rare item will I receive today?", or "Will I receive the Tangleroot pet today?", or "What skill should I train today?".
          • Carrot sword
            • A lovely orange sword to complete your fashions cape outfit.
  • Store updates:
    • The Easter Box is back for a limited time!
      • This item, similar to a Mystery box, can give you any of the following loot:
        • Fully bunny suit (comes together)
        • Full chicken suit (comes together)
        • Easter basket
        • Easter ring
      • Cost: 1000 tokens
      • Ironman/classics can also purchase this item.
  • Bug fixes:
    • Fixed an issue where UIM's who are hiding donator ranks would not be able to see their UIM logo in the chat box.
    • Players can no longer cast Tele-block on an NPC.
    • Ogres will now properly drop ensouled heads instead of Dwarf remains.
    • Fixed an issue where the completing a bloodveld task in the slayer tower achievement would not work properly.
    • Fixed the dragon hunter lance's animations.
    • Tzhaar-Mej's can now properly be attacked.
    • Fixed a problem when rotating the screen with your mouse and left-alt button.
    • Fixed a bug where players who got frozen on Agility obstacles/shortcuts would be stuck there with no way off.
    • Fixed an issue where casting the Iban Blast with the Iban's Staff (u) when not on the normal spellbook would cause no animation to play.
    • Players can now kill Kree'Arra and the armadyl chamber minions if they are on an Aviansie task.
    • Fixed an issue where Bloodvelds were being uncharacteristically aggressive...
    • The staircase south of Yanille bank will no longer put players inside a wall.
    • Changes to the duo slayer system:
      • Players whose partners try to use the free skip will now be prompted if they wish to accept the free skip, however their task streak will also be reset.
        • If a player chooses to not accept this, they will keep their current task and be split from their partner.
      • Players can no longer partner up with another player if:
        • Their slayer level difference is higher than 10 levels.
        • Their combat level difference is higher than 10 levels.
    • Removed a message where blocking a slayer task would tell players their streaks would reset.
  • Quality of life:
    • The Mount karuulm teleport on Rada's blessing will now take players closer to Konar.
    • The imbued heart will now tell players how many seconds left until they can use it again when it's on the last minute.
    • Changed the item overlays so that when players are holding control to blacklist/whitelist items, it won't show duplicate items.
    • The restoration pools will now reset players stats back to their normal level if they've been decreased.
      • Buffed stats will still remain.
    • Players who are get assigned Tzhaars and have the Hot-Stuff perk unlocked will now have a choice to fight Tzhaars, Tztok-Jad, or Tzkal-Zuk as a task.
      • Players who have partners will not be eligible to select, and be automatically assigned Tzhaars.
    • Players can now freely enable/disable slayer unlocks or extensions that they’ve already purchased.
  • PvP changes:
    • Ranged Exp drops will now be calculated after prayer/other damage reductions are applied.
    • ::renderself will now make the next player who is standing beneath you show appear instead of yourself.
    • Players who are in combat in singles zones can now attack players who are in multi-zones without a PJ timer.
    • Updated the VLS animations so that the Special attack animation is unique, and the regular animations are the proper ones. 
    • Tweaked the super restore and sanfew serum prayer restoration formula to be the same as OSRS.
      • Sanfew serum: 9 + Floor(prayerLevel/4)
      • Super restore: 8 + Floor(prayerLevel/4)
    • The Toxic staff of the dead/Staff of the dead/Staff of light special attack effects will now be removed when a player un-equips the staff.
  • Clue scroll step resetting:
    • Players can now sacrifice their clue scroll to get a new step for it.
      • This works the same way as master clue scrolls, meaning players will have 2 ways to get a new step from a clue scroll:
        • Dropping the clue and waiting until it de-spawns.
          • Note: Logging out with a clue dropped on the ground will cause it to be removed permanently.
        • ::Empty the clue from your inventory(this will reset all clues that were emptied)
  • Cannon changes:

Comments after thoroughly testing the update:

 

  • Cannon update: +
  • Good addition!  Cannon DPS significantly increased

 

  • Duo slayer update: -
  • Lacks consideration!  In my honest opinion, the changes to the duo slayer system are arbitrary and should have been polled first.  With this update, you can no longer partner up with someone more than 10 combat and slayer levels below/above you.  For Realism players, this makes a huge difference.  As a maxed player, I'm now limited to partnering with players 116+ cb and 89+ slayer.  This significantly cuts down the number of Realism players I can duo slay with.  Previously, duo slaying was a way for me to slay with community members and introduce them to Realism.  Now, I can no longer do this.  
  • Furthermore, this update makes it more difficult for pures/zerkers to duo slay.  A maxed level 90 zerker with 99 slayer would not be able to duo slay with mains.
  • Solution: I would suggest changing the rules for duo slayer.  Rather than requiring players to be both within 10 cb and slayer levels, I suggest either or.  I would also recommend increasing the pairing range from within 10 levels to 15 or 20.  More partnering activities is good for the community! 

 

  • Slayer point reward update: -
  • The previous update changed slayer points to be awarded purely based on task streak number.  This was a mistake in my opinion.  Slayer points/hour should only increase as players get stronger and obtain higher slayer levels.  After this update, points/hour is significantly greater at lower levels.  A 10 streak of tasks like 10 cows, 10 ghosts, etc can be completed significantly faster than a 10 streak of 100 ancient wyverns, 100 gargoyles, etc yet they both yield the same amount of slayer points.  Because of this update, obtaining a cannon is easier and faster on a new level 3 account than on a maxed streakless account.  This issue is very problematic and I would suggest addressing it by implementing points/kill on top of points/streak.  The points/kill should be enough to offset this imbalance.

Happy Easter! I think it's neat you managed to squeeze an event plus a few adjustments after giving us so much a week ago. Really nice.

Edit: Thank you. :)

Extended tasks are still extended after ticking the box "off". Really annoying when I need to kill 230 black demons for the karamja achievement..

@Iron voo After disabling the extension, and then getting a fresh task, it should be a normal one rather than an extended one. This seems to work fine while testing it myself, but if you're seeing experiencing issues, I'd appreciate a bug report thread being made detailing it. :)


@Gorok Level 3 skillers who planned to get 99 slayer through leeching experience from another account will no longer be able to get 99 slayer through that method unfortunately.
