  • Fixed a bug on the Gpu plugin where some items (skillcapes) were clipping incorrectly.
  • Fixed a bug where some areas on mobile would get VERY choppy (fps would drop to 5-10 fps).
    • This should no longer happen, but if it does, players will be notified in their chatbox to report the issue to Omicron.
• Quality of Life:
  • Updated the shortest path plugin to work while sailing.
  • Shipwreck tweaks:
    • Small shipwrecks will now last 4x as long.
    • All other shipwrecks now last 2x as long.
    • Shipwreck timers for fresh spawns will no longer begin counting down until a player salvages.
    • This should make Salvaging a much more AFK activity.
  • Sailing has been added as a "Skill of the Day", right after Construction day.

Hello everyone,

The time has finally come for players to set sail on the seas of Alora! After many months of working on our most challenging project yet, we are finally ready to go live with Alora's 24th skill, Sailing. We're proud to be the first RSPS to be able to provide this experience, and as always we will continue to strive to get the latest content released to you as quickly as we can.

You can now log in and begin Sailing by heading to Port Sarim where you will be given your starter raft to begin your journey as a sailor. As of right now, ship combat, trawling, and crew recruitment are not included in this update, but will come in a future update not too far off -- in the meantime, there is an abundance of content to get you started, including Courier tasks, Ocean encounters, Shipwreck Salvaging, Boat customization, Barracuda Trials & more!

In other news, we've released the long-awaited and highly-requested Cooking NPC (not a meme btw), we've upgraded the Cosmetic mystery box with a few new items, released a brand new Sailing mystery box for peak Fashionscape to go along with the Sailing release, and we've also released our final and highest Donator rank -- Divine Donator. We'll let you read the full update notes below:

• Sailing:
  • What is Sailing?
    • For those of you not in the know, Sailing is a new skill that requires players to build and customize their own boats, and take to the high-seas, engaging in various sea-worthy activities to earn experience and rewards.
  • Restrictions:
    • Players will not be able gain sailing experience through experience lamps, dark relics, or tears of guthix for the first week of release, until September 12th.
    • Mobile players who use the “Legacy renderer” will not be able to access this skill.
      • Any mobile player wishing to sail must turn the Legacy renderer off on the login screen.
  • Boat Types:
    • There are 3 types of boats:
      • Raft:
        • Rafts are the smallest type of boat which can hold only 1 facility at a time, and requires level 1 sailing to purchase.
      • Skiff:
        • Skiffs are a larger tier of boat which can hold up to 7 facilities at a time, and requires level 15 sailing to purchase.
      • Sloop:
        • Sloops are the larger tier of boat which can hold up to 11 facilities at a time, and requires level 50 sailing to purchase.
  • Plugins:
    • Players can access the Sailing plugin (both on mobile and desktop), as well as the port tasks, barracuda trials pathfinder, and turning circles plugins (desktop only).
  • Every player will start with a wooden raft, which they will automatically receive, and is docked at Port Sarim.
    • It’s not much, but this is where you’ll start your career as a sailor.
  • Players can earn experience through various methods:
    • Occasionally while sailing, your ship’s sails will begin to pick up gusts of wind. Clicking on your sails to trim them will provide a small amount of experience and boost your ship’s speed temporarily.
    • Salvaging:
      • Players will see many shipwrecks spread out around the seas.
        • There are 8 different types of shipwrecks that players can salvage, each providing their own unique type of salvage.
          • Players will likely start their journey by salvaging small shipwrecks for small salvage at level 15 sailing.
            • This will provide 10 experience per salvage obtained.
      • The shipwrecks players salvage will rotate to new positions every so often, so players may need to move their boats to new locations to continue collecting salvage.
      • Players must have a salvaging hook on their boat to collect salvage.
        • Salvage can be stored in a player’s cargo hold on their boat.
      • Once a player collects salvage, they can sort it at a sorting station for sailing experience and rewards, which can be found at many ports, or build right onto your ship.
      • For more details on shipwreck types/rewards we recommend checking out the OSRS wiki:
        • https://oldschool.ru...wreck_salvaging
    • Barracuda Trials:
      • Barracuda trials are races that players must complete to earn rewards/experience.
        • Each Barracuda trial has 4 difficulties to choose from.
          • Unranked:
            • There is no time to beat, and no pressure, but rewards and experience won’t be as good as higher tiers.
          • Swordfish:
            • This is the easiest/first timed trial. Once players beat the time required, they will be rewarded unique loot, bonus experience, and be given access to the next difficulty tier (Shark).
          • Swordfish:
            • This is the middle difficulty trial. Once players beat the time required, they will be rewarded unique loot, bonus experience, and be given access to the next difficulty tier (Marlin).
          • Marlin:
            • This is the hardest difficulty trial. Once players beat the time required, they will be rewarded unique loot, and a large amount of bonus experience.
          • Players can repeat the trials at any difficult they want, provided they have it unlocked.
      • All barracuda trials must be done on a Skiff, and with no other players on your ship.
      • There are 3 tiers of Barracuda trials:
        • The Tempor Tantrum:
          • This is the first Barracuda trial, which players can do at level 30 Sailing.
          • It takes place in the Storm Tempor, which will require boats to have an Iron helm, Oak masts, and linen sails at the minimum to sail through.
          • To begin, players must sail over to Rum-dashed Ralph and speak to him to start the race.
            • The goal of this race is to gather the required amount of lost supply crates by sailing near them.
              • Players will also need to pay a visit (or two) to the nearby rum boat to pickup the rum shipment.
                • Once players have collected the required amount of lost supplies/rum, they can deliver it to Rum-dashed Ralph to complete the trial.
        • The Jubbly Jive:
          • This is the second Barracuda trial, which players can do at level 55 sailing.
            • This takes place in the Backwater, which will require ships to have an inoculation station, and mithril helm (at least) to sail through.
          • To start the trial, speak to Gurtob and Ros.
            • The goal of this trial is similar, requiring players to also collect the correct amount of lost supplies, but at the same time players will need to collect specific Jubbly birds.
              • Jubbly birds are collected by luring them to various outcrops and baited them with balloon toads.
                • Balloon toads are obtained from a nearby supply boat.
                • Players can throw balloon toads at the outcrops to lure nearby bubbly birds.
            • The Backwater is littered with fetid pools which will drastically slow down ships if they are not being boosted by gusts of wind.
        • The Gwenith Glide:
          • This is the third and final Barracuda trial, which players can do at level 72 Sailing.
            • This takes place in crystal waters near Port Gwenith, requiring an Adamant keel (at least) to sail through.
          • To start this trial, speak to Gwyna.
            • The goal of this trial is to collect the required amount of lost supplies, as well as imbuing the correct Crystals of Ithell.
              • Once all the supplies are correct and all required crystals are imbued, players will be teleported to the start point and complete the race.
    • Courier Tasks:
      • Every major port will have a port task board, which players can interact with.
        • On these boards, players will see various tasks to deliver crate shipments to/from the dock they’re currently at.
          • If a task is accepted, players can grab the crates from the Ledger table and store them in their cargo hold.
            • Some tasks will require players to take/deliver multiple crates at a time, and so players may have crewmates helping them load and unload crates depending on their sailing level and boat type.
              • At most 2 crewmates will help players on skiffs.
              • At most 5 crewmates will help players on sloops.
              • The amount of crewmates that help players will depend on if they have the sailing level to hire that crewmate:
                • https://oldschool.ru...Crew_Management
            • Completing deliveries will reward players with a certain amount of sailing experience based on the distance travelled and level required for the task, and a small amount of gold.
        • Task boards also have a refresh option, where players can refresh the visible tasks on the board if they do not like any of them.
          • This defaults to 3 resets every hour, but more resets are given based on donator rank.
            • Eternal: Unlimited
            • Immortal: 25
            • Master: 20
            • Uber: 15
            • Legendary: 12
            • Extreme: 8
            • Super: 5
            • Regular donator: 4
          • Players can also force a task reset by visiting a different task board at a different port.
        • Players can freely cancel tasks that they took that they no longer wish to complete.
    • Charting:
      • Sea charting is an activity players can perform as they sail throughout the seas.
        • In your cargo hold, you’ll be able to grab an item called the “Captain’s log”.
          • This will be your guide to sea charting, as it help you keep track of all the tasks you’ve completed/need to complete in any given sea.
      • There are a total of 358 charting tasks, and completing all of them gives 100,000 base sailing experience.
        • Each tasks also give some sailing experience, with bonuses being provided when completing all the tasks in a given sea.
          • Completing all the tasks will give players a combined total of 691,270 sailing experience.
      • There are multiple types of charting tasks players can do:
        • Generic charting: This requires charting an object on land or by boat (mostly by boat), simply by interacting with it.
        • Spyglass: This requires sailing to a specific point, and using your spyglass (which can be obtained from the cargo hold) to get a good view of the area.
        • Crates: Players will find sealed crates and must open them and sample their contents:
          • WARNING: some of drinks that come out of these crates may be very dangerous.
            • Players will be warned before drinking them.
        • Diving: This will require players to answer a riddle to get help from a mermaid.
        • Weather: This requires players to help meteorologist trolls chart the weather.
        • Current Duck: This requires players to release a current duck (found in their cargo hold) and follow it to its end point to chart the current.
  • Ocean Encounters:
    • These are effectively ocean “random events”. They appear every so often as long as boat is moving.
    • Types of ocean encounters:
      • Strong winds:
        • When sailing into the strong winds, a player can trim their sails repeatedly for additional speed and experience.
      • Mysterious glow:
        • Sailing over the mysterious glows will spawn a new mysterious glow a few tiles away, giving increasingly more Sailing experience and rewarding an uncut gem after the final glow.
      • Lost Crate:
        • Lost crates can occasionally be found floating in the water and can be collected. There are multiple tiers of crates, scaling with the player's Sailing level, with increasingly valuable loot.
      • Castaway:
        • Castaways can be retrieved, then dropped off at a gangplank or mooring point for an experience reward.
      • Giant Clam:
        • A giant clam can be fed an item, then the next time it is encountered it will have polished that item into a pearl that can be harvested.
      • Clue Turtle:
        • Retrieving clue turtles will give a player a clue scroll.
      • Ocean Man:
        • When spoken to, Ocean Man will give the player a cocktail. Fun!
      • Lost Casket:
        • Lost caskets can be retrieved that give a single roll of the reward casket of the respective tier.
    • These encounters are not all equally likely, some encounters (such as strong winds) will appear much more frequently than others.
  • Boat customization:
    • Players can speak to a Shipwright to customize their boats at any time.
      • Shipwright seb is around to sell players various things they may need to upgrade their ship.
    • Players can use the Boat schematics board to upgrade/downgrade core boat components, such as their hull, helm, mast and sails, and keel.
      • Players can also recolour their sails, but this will require 10 of a specific color of dye.
        • Dyes will be obtainable through sorting salvage, barracuda trials, and courier tasks.
          • The rates of obtaining dyes vary on the difficulty/tier/duration of the tasks.
      • Players will require a specific construction and sailing level to upgrade certain boat components.
        • If a player does not have the required construction level, a shipwright can be paid a fee to apply the changes for you in certain cases.
    •  To upgrade boat facilities, players must be on their boat (which will be docked in the shipyard).
      • Similar to construction, players can click hotspots to build or upgrade their facilities.
        • Players can also use facility bottles to store a facility to easily move it (or store it for later) without destroying it and losing the materials.
    • Some facilities/upgrades will be locked behind specific item requirements, or schematics that the players must hunt for on various islands.
  • Islands:
    • There are over 27 new dockable islands that players can reach, each of them holding something unique.
      • Most islands have a specific sailing requirement to dock your boat, as well as potentially being in hazardous waters, which will require specific boat upgrades to survive in.
  • Unavailable content:
    • As of right now, ship combat, trawling, and crew recruitment are not included in this update, but will come in a future update not too far off.
  • And much more!
    • There’s a lot of content in this new skill, and plenty to discover, so rather than write you a book, we’ll let you explore it on your own.
• Cooking NPC:
  • After many, many, long awaited years, the cooking npc has finally arrived.
  • The head chef in the cooking guild will now cook noted raw food for players for a fee.
    • To do so, players must have level 99 cooking, and have completed the Lumbridge & Draynor elite diaries as well as the Varrock elite diaries.
  • The cost to cook the food is by default 4,000 gold per food cooked.
    • Donators will have a lower cost to cook the food.
      • Divine Donators: 1,000 coins per food
      • Eternal Donators: 2,000 coins per food
      • Immortal Donators: 2,500 coins per food
      • Master donators: 2,750 coins per food
      • Uber Donators: 3,000 coins per food
      • Legendary Donators: 3,250 coins per food
      • Extreme Donators: 3,500 coins per food.
    • Furthermore, players who have 200 million cooking experience will receive a 50% discount on all cooked food, reducing the base cost per food cooked to 2,000 coins.
    • Ironman accounts will need to pay a higher premium of 6,000 coins per food as the base cost.
  • The cooking npc is fast, but he’s not magic.
    • He needs time to cook the food, so as it stands, he cooks one piece of food every 30 seconds.
      • He can also only accept up to 1,000 noted food of one type at a time, so orders cannot be stacked, and players will need to regularly pop in to collect their cooked food and put in a new order.
      • This means, if a player puts in a maximum quantity order (for example 1,000 raw sharks), it would take the cooking npc 8 hours and 20 minutes to finish cooking all the fish. 
• Summer Sweep Up:
  • Reduced Chivalry's drain rate to match Deadeye and Mystic Vigour, draining 1 point per 3 seconds.
  • Lowered the Light & Heavy Ranged Defence for Abyssal Guardians and Abyssal Walkers to 0, down from 70 and 75 respectively.
  • Lowered the Crush Defence for Abyssal Guardians to 0, down from 70.
  • When adding logs to a bonfire, if the player has only one type of log they will no longer get the skilling input, it will just add the logs right away.
  • Chambers of Xeric Rare Drop Rebalancing:
    • Changes have been made to how rare items are rolled once the purple drop table has been rolled.
      • It now looks like this:
        • https://imgur.com/tsBhbXE
    • The changes essentially boil down to making some items that were far more common, such as dragon claws, elder maul, and korai insignia slightly less common and bump up some items that were less common, such as the twisted bow and ancestral items.
    • The chance to hit the rare table and obtain a purple chest has not been changed.
  • The Colossal worm agility course agility obstacles now take more time.
    • The advanced course takes about ~40% longer, while the basic course is about 25% longer to make it more AFK.
      • To compensate for this, the experience gained at the end of the course has been increased, as well as the number of termites/bone shards.
  • Bird houses:
    • Number of rolls for nests from all tiers of birdhouse lowered from 10 to 5.
      • The rate of nests has been increased by 3x though, so players are more likely to get them than before.
    • XP Changes (nerfs):
      • Regular birdhouse XP decreased by 60%.
      • Oak birdhouse XP decreased by 60%.
      • Willow birdhouse XP decreased by 60%.
      • Teak birdhouse XP decreased by 60%.
      • Maple birdhouse XP decreased by 55%.
      • Mahogany birdhouse XP decreased by 50%.
      • Yew birdhouse XP decreased by 40%.
      • Magic birdhouse XP decreased by 15%.
      • Redwood birdhouse XP unchanged.

    • Players will no longer be locked when their falcon has left their arm to catch a kebbit.
  • Aerial Fishing:
    • Increased the “Quick catch” distance from a 5x5 area to a 7x7 area.
    • Players can now unlock the ability for their cormorant to eat whole fish, rather than requiring fish offcuts.
      • To unlock this, speak to Alry the angler and pay him 20 molch pearls.
    • Molch pearls are now 50% more common.
  • Deadfall traps:
    • Players can now set 2 deadfall traps at a time rather than 1.
    • Deadfall traps now have a 75% chance to preserve your log when placing a trap.
    • Experience gained from Wild/barbed/prickly/sabre-toothed kebbits, and pyre foxes have been reduced.
  • The drop rate for butterfly hunter rumour parts is now twice as high, 1/40 up from 1/75.
  • Guardians of the Rift:
    • The abyssal needle can now be purchased from the shop for 750 Abyss pearls.
    • The abyssal lantern’s extra rune bonuses now work outside the minigame as well.
  • Removed the herblore requirement on the Reagent pouch.
• Gpu Plugin/117HD Particles:
  • The particle engine has been extended to the Gpu and 117HD plugins.
  • The particle toggle has been removed from the 2008 HD plugin, and will instead be in the “Gameplay” tab of the settings interface.
• Native HD Changes:
  • Improved performance of the Native HD plugin, players should see higher FPS across the board.
  • Added a setting called “Old school visuals” which keeps the LD/GPU plugin oldschool look while taking advantage of the native HD open GL renderer.
    • This will allow players who prefer the old school look to have it while also having access to particles, hd water/lava, weather, dynamic skybox, etc…
    • Many settings which are controlled/disabled will be hidden in the Alora Client Settings plugin when this setting is enabled.
  • Fixed some visual issues, such as equipment clipping.
  • Added a setting for Anisotropic filtering to clean up textures, especially at far away distances.
  • The “2010” mode now has much better equipment mapping.
    • More modern HDOS models are used for equipment, and many graphical issues with broken jaws/mismatched equipment have been fixed.
• Quality of Life:
  • Black warlocks now provide the correct strength boost.
  • Ruby Haversts now provide the correct attack boost.
  • Pickpocketing gnomes now has a chance to give medium clue scrolls.
  • Increased the chance of getting a hard clue scroll from Paladins.
  • The “Big Search” option now works on the tempoross rewards pool, allowing players to loot 5 rolls at a time.
  • Antifire/Super-Antifire potions will now persist on logout.
  • The delve hole between doom stages will no longer glow if it's only for a duplicate pet drop.
  • Camera zooming is now much, much, smoother on both the mobile and desktop clients.
  • Players can now log back into their accounts on mobile if their account is in mobile “Idle” state.
    • This may happen after a disconnection or if the player force closes the client.
    • As always, if the player is in combat with a player or NPC in the wilderness, it will be treated as an X-Log, and the player will not be able to log back in until the X-log timer kicks the player off.
  • Building a vale totem now restores 15% run energy.
  • Players must now only have a demonbane weapon equipped at the time of Skotizo's death, rather than for the entire kill to complete the Demonbane Weaponry combat achievement.
  • Gems from pickpocketing will now go into your Gem bag if possible.
  • Combat sounds:
    • Taking damage now plays a hurt sound effect, matching OSRS behavior.
    • Blocking a hit (a 0 hitsplat) now plays a block sound based on your equipment.

  • A new Donator rank has been added! This is Alora's final donator rank, representing a level of prestige higher than the previous rank, with a total spent of $50,000 required to obtain it. Not many will be able to obtain this rank, adding to its elusiveness, and the perks will reflect the difficulty of obtaining this rank.

        • No point loss on Raids death.

        • Similar to Eternal, Divines get unlimited rank transfers but with a shorter 30-day cooldown rather than 90.
      • Exclusive pet:

      • Ahoy! With the release of Sailing, we've added a nautical-themed mystery box packed with pirate, sailor and beach cosmetics. As with the Cosmetic mystery box, Ironman/Realism modes can purchase this box, as it strictly contains cosmetics that do not provide an in-game advantage.
      • This box is also the only way (outside of Sailing itself) to get your hands on some of our custom sailing/beach items, such as the Clam shell backpack, Canoe, Hawaiian shirts and more!
      • Many different items can be obtained from the box, including:

      • This item is tradable.
      • Although it is intended for ironmen, it can also be purchased by normal game mode players.
  • Cosmetic Mystery Box Additions:
    • Four new tradable cosmetics have been added to the Cosmetic mystery box's "Rare" pool, the 2nd most common category:
      • Rainbow cape — a colourful cape constructed with beautiful rainbow fabrics
      • Rainbow crown shirt — can be swapped between 8 different variants
      • Rainbow jumper -- can be swapped between 9 different variants
      • Love crossbow -- wield it and use the "Enamor" option on another player to fire a volley of harmless hearts at them. Cannot be used in the wilderness.

As this is one of our largest updates yet, there are bound to be some bugs encountered. We'll be working around the clock to patch them up as quickly as possible, but we're relying on you to promptly report those bugs as well.


We hope you enjoy this update!

Best,
Omicron

Hello everyone,

As you already know, we have been working hard to bring Sailing to Alora, and we are approaching release! The date has been chosen: Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 5th, 2026.
 
In the meantime, we've got a bunch of other updates to improve your experience, namely an overhaul for the Native HD renderer in our client (the original HD experience from 2008 RS), which we've updated to include MacOS compatibility, improved performance, and all sorts of new features such as particles on capes, weather effects (rain / lightning), better quality water, a skybox, and more! We've also release a few new QoL / Content updates in-game, such as Barrows pets which act as an item sink, Minimal Mondays for faster clues once a week, the Summer Sweep-up changes from OSRS and more!

• Theatre of Blood Light Colors plugin:
  • You can now use the Tob Light Colors plugin, which recolors the purple glow around the Theatre of Blood unique chest and adds the Chambers of Xeric light beam above the chest.
• Minimal Mondays for Clue Scrolls:
  • Every Monday, you'll be able to complete Clue scrolls more quickly!
    • For Easy/Medium clues (between 2-5 steps), you have a 50% chance of reducing by 1 step.
    • For Hard/Elite/Master clues (between 4-8 steps), you have a guaranteed reduction of 1 step.
  • This event is automatic and you will be notified as soon as it turns on or off, as well as on login.
• Barrows pets:
  • Barrows pets are now obtainable! There is a 1/3,000 chance of obtaining the "Barrows slime" upon defeating any one of the bosses. The slime can follow you around, however you can also use any 3 x barrows set on the slime to unlock that variant of the pet.
    • For example, using 3 x Dharok's armor set on the Barrows slime will unlock Dharok jr. 
• Mobile Changes:
  • Mobile now uses a new z-buffer renderer.
    • This renderer should lead to higher FPS/better performance on most devices, as well as better battery life.
    • Players can still use the old renderer by toggling the “Legacy renderer” option on the login screen.
• Native HD Upgrades:
  • Completionist cape particle effects:
    • Completionist capes now all have a particle effect attached to them, which leave a gradient trail of particles behind the player.
      • Players can turn these particles off in the Alora Client Settings plugin config.
  • Texture restored:
    • For a while now, texture on objects, equipment, and NPCs has been missing. We've properly restored them so that the game feels far more high-definition.
  • MacOS Support:
    • Players on Mac OS can now use the native HD renderer. This applies to both older Macs using Intel chips, and newer Macs using Apple Silicon chips.
  • Weather effects:
    • You can select between Rain, Rain & Lightning, and Snow, which creates a nice atmosphere.
  • Skybox:
    • You can now enable a skybox with the sun, moon, clouds and stars visible. It will be synchronized with the time of day on your computer, and will take into account any weather effects for overcast (eg. Rain).
  • Environmental lighting:
    • Objects, NPCs, animations, graphics and projectiles will now light up their surroundings (eg. Torches, fires, lights, furnaces, etc) to provide a more immersive experience.
      • You can toggle the intensity of the lighting in the "Alora Client Settings" plugin on RuneLite, under the "Alora Native HD" section, or turn it off entirely.
  • Atmospheric lighting:
    • Separate from the environmental in a region, regions will now have their own "mood" with the sky, fog and overall lighting changing to match the area.
      • This can also be toggled for intensity (Off/Low/Med/High) in the same "Alora Client Settings" plugin.
  • "HD Textures on OSRS" Setting:
    • In the Alora Client Settings plugin, you can now toggle this option to apply HD textures on OSRS items / objects / NPCs.
      • This is still in early stages and is far from perfect, but will at least texturize the game a bit further.
  • Asynchronous region loading now works properly on HD.
  • Adjusted shadows so that they no longer show up on objects that are lower than a certain height, or sunk into the ground.
    • For example, visually flat objects, such as  seaweed would cast shadows.
  • Upgraded the water to look more pleasant/dynamic.
    • Players can disable the new HD water in the runelite Alora Client Settings plugin.
    • https://i.imgur.com/B6hlnKI.jpeg
  • Re-worked the fog to be more similar to 117HD/GPU, creating a wall of fog around the entire region border, rather than just applying fog in a small area the camera is looking.
    • https://i.imgur.com/zZ8ULFP.jpeg
  • The Alora client settings plugin now allows players to set the shadow quality (None/Low/Medium/High), which will also affect performance.
  • Expanded region map loading has been added to native HD, and can be adjusted in the Alora client settings plugin.
    • The draw distance has now also changed from a cap of 90 to a cap of 184, and will no longer force the client into the “loading - please wait” state when changed.
  • FPS/performance has been increased quite a bit overall.
• Players can now have more than 1 seed pack at a time.
  • Seed packs can be obtained from completing farming guild contracts, trading in spirit seeds, purchasing them from castle wars, or last man standing.
    • Previously, players could only have 1 seed pack at a time.
      • Players can now have up to 256 at a time.
  • Opening seed packs now works more like wintertodt crates, where no given pack is unique, and seeds will be withdrawn in the order the packs were received.
    • For example, if a player received a hard seed pack, followed by a medium seed pack, they’ll have 2 identical seed packs in their inventory, but regardless of which pack is clicked, the hard seed pack rewards will be obtained first, followed by the medium seed pack rewards.
      • Players will now also be told which tier of seed pack they are getting seeds from.
• Summer Sweep Up Changes:
  • Gauntlet:
    • There's now a guaranteed random demi-boss spawn at the north/east/south/west-most rooms from the centre. Meaning four demi-bosses with fixed locations, but the specific demi-bosses that you encounter will still be random.
    • Demi-bosses have had their attack range reduced from 16 to 10.
    • Non-demi-boss enemies now have standardised defensive stats, meaning it's never better to kill a wolf over a scorpion, for example.
    • Weapon frames are guaranteed from your first 'low tier' NPC kill.
    • Phren Bark, Crystal Ore and Linum Tirinum are now stackable.
    • Crystal Shards are now automatically placed in your inventory. Additionally, the quantity dropped by enemies has a smaller range, so will feel much more consistent.
    • Crystal Shard costs for crafting various pieces of equipment have been adjusted:
      • Creating a Tier 1 weapon requires no Crystal Shards, down from 20. You'll still need a weapon frame.
      • Creating a Tier 2 weapon requires 50 Crystal Shards, down from 60.
      • Creating a piece of Tier 1 armour requires 50 Crystal Shards, up from 40.
      • Creating a piece of Tier 2 Body armour requires 100 Crystal Shards, up from 80. Creating a piece of Tier 2 Leg or Helmet armour requires 50 Crystal shards, down from 80.
      • Creating a piece of Tier 3 armour requires 100 Crystal Shards, up from 80. 
  • Phantom muspah will no longer change phases until it has also been hit by the player at least 4 times.
  • Demonic Gorillas will no longer swap prayers until you've dealt damage at least 4 times, and dealt at least 70 damage with a style.
  • Demonic gorillas will also no longer swap to the same style they were just using.
  • Weapon Changes:
    • Sanguinesti Staff Changes:
      • Chance to heal increased to 1 in 5 (up from 1 in 6), deals 8 additional damage whenever the heal procs - this averages out to +1.6 damage per hit.
      • Base max hit increased by +1.
      • Charge cost reduced to 2 Blood runes per cast, down from 3. You should be refunded one Blood rune per charge upon logging in after the update. If your inventory is full then they'll go to your bank. If your bank is also full (or you're a UIM with a full inventory) then they'll drop on the ground.
    • Soulreaper Axe Changes
      • Gains +4 Strength bonus.
      • Stack limit remains at 5, with 6% damage bonus gained per stack.
      • Stacks take 50 ticks to start decrementing, up from 20 ticks.
      • Stacks no longer drain/restore HP.
      • Special attack now gains 12% accuracy per stack, up from 6% (60% at max stacks)
      • Special attack now gains 6% minimum hit per stack (30% at max stacks)
    • Ghrazi Rapier Stab accuracy increased by +6, Strength bonus increased by +4.
    • Blade of Saeldor Slash accuracy increased by +6, Strength bonus increased by +4.
    • Pegasian Boots gain +1 Ranged Strength bonus.
    • Master Wand gains +10% Magic Damage bonus.
    • Ancient Sceptres (all variants) have their Magic Damage bonus increased to +10%, up from +5%.
    • Inquisitor changes (it wouldn't be a Summer Sweep-Up without Inquisitor changes)
      • Inquisitor's Great Helm gains +2 Crush accuracy and +2 Strength bonus, to match its Oathplate equivalent.
        • Additionally, provides a +0.5% bonus to Crush damage and Crush accuracy. This boost is no longer increased by a set effect or when using the Inquisitor's Mace specifically.
      • Inquisitor's Hauberk gains +4 Crush accuracy, to match its Oathplate equivalent.
        • Additionally, provides a +1% bonus to Crush damage and Crush accuracy, up from +0.5%. This boost is no longer increased by a set effect or when using the Inquisitor's Mace specifically.
      • Inquisitor's Plateskirt gains no Crush accuracy or Strength, since it already matches its Oathplate equivalent.
        • Additionally, provides a +1% bonus to Crush damage and Crush accuracy, up from +0.5%. This boost is no longer increased by a set effect or when using the Inquisitor's Mace specifically.
      • Inquisitor's Mace gains +7 Strength bonus and +7 Crush accuracy. This guarantees a max hit in all setups, and might add +2 max hits in some setups.
      • Additionally, any negative Stab/Slash bonuses have been removed from Inquisitor armour pieces.
    • Shaman Mask Magic bonus increased to +2 from -6.
    • Tonalztics of Ralos improvements:
      • Special attack buffed to reduce opponent's Defence by 12.5% of its Magic level per hit, up from 10%.
      • Special attack buffed to grant +50% increased accuracy.
    • Burning Claws Special Attack Energy cost increased to 35% from 30%.
    • PvP Only: The Eclipse Atlatl now fires every 4 ticks while set to Rapid, unless the full Eclipse set is worn to reduce the attack rate back to 3 ticks.
    • PvP Only: The Soulflame Horn's Accuracy boost for Special Attacks has been reduced to +50%, down from +100%.
• Quality of Life:
  • Fixed a bug where some weapons would not clip properly into the player’s hands in 2010 mode.
  • Moved the hitsplat damage text down 1 pixel.
  • Players can now use a spade on a farming patch to clear the patch at any stage.
    • This will reset the patch, removing any planted seed, regardless of growth stage.
  • Added the Dark Wintertodt plugin to the plugin-hub to make wintertodt less harsh on the eyes.
  • Added the Client Resizer plugin to the plugin-hub, allowing players to use hotkeys to resize their client quickly. 
  • The moss giant area in the Edgeville dungeon is now a multi-combat zone.
  • Amy’s saw (offhand) now has a bank placeholder.
  • Giant Mole Donator Perk:
    • Mole part drops (skin, claws) from the Giant Mole will now have a chance to drop extras for Legendary+ donators, specifically to help Ironmen grind their brews.
      • Regardless of donator rank, there is a 25% chance of extra drops, and if you land it, all the skins / claws will be noted from that drop, with the range of extra items being:
        • Legendary: 1 extra
        • Uber: 1-2 extra
        • Master: 1-3 extra
        • Immortal: 2-3 extra
        • Eternal: 2-4 extra
      • The roll is separate per item dropped, so you could land it on both skins and claws, or one and not the other, or neither.
  • Players can now use the sand in the north section of the donator zone to fill up empty buckets.
  • Collection Log Drop Rates:
    • When clicking on an item in your collection log, it will now show you the drop rate for that item if possible.
      • This will only work for bosses (not raids, minigames, etc) with a few exceptions (eg. The Inferno, Fight Caves).
      • The rate will be unique to you at this current moment, not at the moment the drop was received. For example, if you have a Drop booster active and just upgraded your donator status, you will see a higher rate than when you received the drop.
  • Made the transparent chatbox use an opacity gradient rather than a uniform transparent shade of black.
    • Also made the line above the chatbox and above the username match, and also use the same opacity gradient.
    • Also added a bit more padding between the chat stones in resizable mode so that occupy a more similar width to the chatbox.
  • The whip idle animation on 2010 mode now uses the oldschool swinging whip animation.
  • The tears of guthix minigame will now always rotate the tears in the same order for GGGBBB, meaning the 3 green tears will change first, followed by the 3 blue tears.
  • Players will now continue to collect tears in the Tears of Guthix minigame until they click away or the minigame ends.
  • The dragonstone bolt (e) effect can now apply to NPC's.
  • The equipment interface will now show the spell attack speed when an autocast spell is set (or the player is using a powered staff).
  • Players can now light logs on the ground with a bow even if it is equipped.
  • Adjusted render priorities on LD/Native HD so that player equipment clips properly.
  • Announced loot from Guardians of the Rift will now show the amount of rift searches rather than the amount of rifts closed.
  • You can now "use" Elite partner swap tickets on Ironman accounts to trade the item over. 
  • Announced loot from Tempoross will now show the amount of pool searches rather than the amount of Tempoross completions.
  • Event Managers can now boost the drop rate for Desert Treasure 2 bosses up to 1.2x (20% easier).
• Bugs:
  • Fixed a bug where the shift-withdraw ui swap in the menu entry swapper plugin was not working properly.
  • Fixed a bug where the Shift-click deposit mode menu entry swapper option on the bank inventory interface was not working.
  • Fixed a bug where proselyte/initiate armour sets would delete remaining set pieces if the player had no space in their inventory.

  • Fixed a bug where Phosani’s nightmare’s range attack max hit was 83 instead of 80.
  • Fixed a bug where Ancient shard drops in the Catacombs were being converted to totem pieces.
  • Server/drop boosts will no longer increase the chance of getting an elite clue from Phosani's nightmare (since the rate is 1/35). 
  • Fixed a bug where pieces of the ::event rooftop above the Grand Exchange would be flaoting in the air.
  • Fixed a bug where the equipment inspector plugin’s total value would sometimes overflow, showing negative values.
  • Players can no longer get gap on an attacker when running from them in PvP if the attacker is manually casting a magic spell.
    • Previously, if the pker was using a manual cast spell on a target, it would often lead to the target getting gap due to the server trying to reset the player’s pathing.
      • It should no longer be possible to get gap on a pker in a direct chase.
  • Eldric the ice king's drop table will now show the deadeye prayer scroll rather than the mystic vigour scroll.
  • Adept/Apprentice/Expert potion packs now provide 4 loot rolls rather than 1.
  • Fixed a bug where entering a new TOA room would not properly update the music track.
    • There should now be a new music track playing in each room.
  • Fixed a bug where “Line1” would sometimes overwrite the chatbox dialogue in Player/Item dialogue interfaces.
  • Fixed a bug which caused players to be teleported out of the Theatre of Blood in rare conditions.
  • Fixed a bug where clicking the "Close" option on the incinerator confirmation interface would delete an item in the player's bank.
  • Fixed an achievement diary typo stating players needed level 80 woodcutting to chop magic logs.
  • Fixed a bug where some loot sources would provide platinum tokens instead of coins.
  • Fixed a bug where some wilderness bosses would count as 2 kills on a slayer task.
  • The "Perfection of Scabaras" combat achievement no longer requires you to complete the Path of Scabaras in less than 1 minute (like the Perfect Scabaras CA).
  • Fixed a bug where the Tears of Guthix plugin would not show the green stream timer.
  • Fixed a bug where players could collect negative tears of guthix.
    • This had no real impact except for if the player had spent too much time in front of the green tears and tried to continue collecting blue tears afterwards.
  • Fixed bugged dialogue when opening the forgotten lockbox.
  • Fixed a bug where the master clue scroll step requiring a player to slap their head was not working.
  • Fixed a bug where the Hunter rumours plugin would sometimes show the incorrect rumour.
  • Fixed a bug where the npc drop searcher wouldn't show Yama's stats.
  • Fixed a bug where the collection log would show the incorrect amount of unique items unlocked.
    • For some players who had unlocked items in the collection log that were then removed (some league items for example), these items would have increased the unique item count, even though they weren’t actually collection log items anymore.
  • The bonus damage/accuracy from a slayer helmet will now apply to Araxxor's minions when on a boss task.
  • Fixed a bug where players could not open scroll boxes if they had a stack larger than 1.
  • Fixed a bug where the mobile client would stutter constantly while playing.
  • Fixed a bug where farming patches would not update properly on mobile.
  • Fixed a bug where a player losing their hardcore status to brutus would say they lost it to hydra.
  • Fixed a bug where wilderness skotizo could get stuck against objects sometimes.
  • Fixed a bug where players could get a double clue scroll drop from the Nightmare.
  • Fixed a bug where the player indicators plugin would not highlight players when the "PvP" option was selected in areas like the duel arena/castle wars, unless you were attacking that player.
  • Venator bow (charged) will now have a higher protection value to protect over less valuable items.
  • Fixed a bug where the stairs in the Falador party room would get players stuck in a wall.

We hope you enjoy this update, and we look forward to experiencing Sailing together for the first time on an RSPS!
 
Best,
Omicron

Hello everyone,

Today's update brings a wide variety of improvements to the server while we continue to work on Sailing in our effort to be the first server to release the massive new skill. We appreciate your patience as we work on bringing the new skill to Alora, we know that this update comes later than expected given our usual schedule, but we know it will be worth it once it is released -- we are beginning testing this week and are very close to the full release. If you haven't already, make sure to check out our Development blog:
https://www.alora.io...velopment-blog/

• Variable Ironman Experience Rates:
  • Players can now select one of 3 different experience rates when creating a new account that is a Regular Ironman, Ultimate Ironman, Hardcore Ironman, or Hardcore Ultimate Ironman.
    • The exp rate options provided are 40x (15x after 99), which was the original rate for ultimate ironman and regular Ironman, 8x, which was the original rate for hardcore ironman/hardcore ultimate ironman, and 4x, a completely new rate for solo ironman accounts.
  • Players can freely increase the experience rates of any of the game modes by speaking to the Combat Master in the ironman shack.
    • For example, if you start your account on 4x, and wish for easier rates, you can go up to 8x/40x.
      • Players who choose to do this will not ever be able to go back down to a harder experience rate.
  • Each of these separate experience rate modes will have their own hiscores so that players will be competing/progress with other accounts in their experience bracket.
  • This new system also means that players who are currently playing on a hardcore ironman or hardcore ultimate ironman will now keep their experience rate if they die.
    • This applies to accounts created before this system was added as well, so dying on a hardcore ironman created before this update will no longer force the player to play an ironman with the 40/15x experience rate, allowing them to continue progressing a normal ironman account at the original 8x experience rate.
  • Looking up players on the forum hiscores or using the runelite hiscores plugin will show the player’s current experience rate.

    • Bond ($100) (Untradable)
    • Bond ($50) (Untradable)
    • Ultimate Mystery Box
  • Players can now use a knife on a max cape/hood variant to revert it to the default max cape/hood.

  • Players can now use Sherlock’s notes on another player to transfer them between accounts.
  • When a player receives coins, if they cannot be added in their inventory/bank (due to having max cash stacks), the server will now try to add it to their inventory/bank as platinum tokens instead, only dropping the amount of coins that cannot be converted to platinum.

In a case like this we wouldn't want to change individual item prices in the shop for a minigame, since we didn't balance it to begin with. What we have done is added bonuses for players (a raw 20% bonus over OSRS, up 30% from events, 15% from vote books, and 5-30% from your donator rank), and we'd prefer to continue doing it that way. I'm going to accept this partially, and increase the maximum boost from events to 50% rather than 30%.
