Hello everyone,

 

Today’s update is primarily focused the large expansion to Varlamore, which includes a new mini-game (Auburnvale Totem Fletching), new dungeons & caverns (with new slayer monsters & rewards), and the new Gemstone crab boss ("AFK" training method). In addition to this, we've also made improvements to server performance for EU players, and have added many quality of life changes and bug fixes. There's plenty to explore in this new update, so we'll let you dive right in below!

 

In other news, we are also nearly done with the Doom of Mokhaiotl (Delve boss), but since this boss is fairly complex, we wanted to spend some more time with it to make sure that everything feels accurate and is working as intended. It will be available in the near future (within the next couple of weeks), so stay tuned for that!

 

• Ping Improvement:
  • Sometimes (particularly for EU players) when logging in you would accidentally be routed through an NA server leading to higher than usual ping. This should no longer happen, and you will always be routed to the lowest ping server possible based on your location. 
• Varlamore Expansion:
  • Auburnvale Totem Fletching Minigame:
    • Players with at least 20 fletching can now participate in the Auburnvale fletching activity.
    • This mini game requires that players run from totem site to totem site, building up and decorating the totems for the wandering Ents.
      • There are 8 totem sites in total.
    • Players can build/decorate totems made out of oak/willow/maple/yew/magic/redwood logs.
      • Oak totems require level 20 fletching to build.
      • Willow totems require level 35 fletching to build.
      • Maple totems require level 50 fletching to build.
      • Yew totems require level 65 fletching to build.
      • Magic totems require level 80 fletching to build.
      • Redwood totems require level 90 fletching to build.
    • Building higher tier totems/decorating them with higher tier decorations will provide more experience, and make the totems more durable.
      • Totems have a durability of 1-7 (depending on a bit of RNG and which type of log is used), and will lose 1 durability each time an ent passes through and admires the totem.
        • Each time an ent admires a totem, players will earn more offerings.
        • When it loses all durability, it will break and need to be rebuilt.
      • When building a totem, players will be asked to carve 3 specific animals into the totem.
        • There are 5 total animals to choose from, but players should carve the 3 spirit animals that are around the totem site into the totem to maximize their rewards.
    • The ents will also leave ent trails behind as they pass from site to site, and stepping on the 2 trails they leave behind will give players increased experience/rewards for a short period of time.
    • Gameplay loop:
      • The idea of this minigame will be to quickly move from site to site, making sure you build a totem and decorate it at every site you visit.
        • Along the way, it’s a good idea to fletch logs into decorations to put on the totems.
          • Most items that you obtain from fletching a log can be used to decorate the totems (unstrung short/longbows, shields, etc…)
            • There is also a new item players can fletch from redwood logs, called the redwood hiking staff.
              • This is a cosmetic item requires 90 fletching, and provides 11 base fletching experience.
    • Totem Fletching Plugin:
      • The Runelite client offers a plugin which helps with all aspects of this minigame.
        • This allows players to highlight the chatbox carving options, shows totem overlays, points overlays, and highlights ent trails.
    • Rewards:
      • When an ent admires your totem, they will leave behind vale offerings.
        • These offerings can be collected from the totem sites, and players can rummage through them to obtain rewards.
          • Players will be rewarded seeds, feathers, anima bark, birds nest, as well as a few new rewards:
            • Bale of Flax:
              • A stackable item that can be opened into 25 un-noted flax.
            • Ent Branch:
              • An item that can be fletched into atlatl dart shafts, or used to make greenman carvings/statues.
            • Dirty arrowtips:
              • Arrowtips that can be cleaned to provide a random assortment of arrowtips.
                • The tier of arrowtips provided is better at higher levels.
                  • For example, cleaning these at level 40 will mostly provide steel arrowtips, with a rare chance to provide rune arrows, while at level 90, it will mostly provide adamant/mithril arrowtips, with a common chance to also get rune/dragon arrowtips.
            • Bow string spool
              • This is an item that can store bow strings in it.
                • Players can use bow strings on the spool, or they will be automatically inserted into it when the player is turning flax into bowstrings.
              • The initial capacity is 250 bowstrings, however players can add a duplicate bow string spool to their existing bow string spool to increase its capacity.
                • This can be done up to 5 times, and increases rapidly the more spools you add.
                  • No spools added: 250 bowstrings
                  • 1 spool added: 500 bowstrings
                  • 2 spools added: 2,000 bowstrings
                  • 3 spools added: 5,000 bowstrings
                  • 4 spools added: 10,000 bowstrings
                  • 5 spools added: 100,000 bowstrings
            • Fletching Knife:
              • This is an equippable version of a knife, which goes in the offhand slot.
                • It can also be used as a regular knife for fletching when in the player’s inventory, but it also has a 50% chance to increase the fletching speed by 1 tick.
                  • This normally should be a 100% chance, however on Alora, most fletching actions are a 2-tick action rather than a 3-tick action, so the speed up is only a 50% chance rather than being guaranteed with each fletch.
            • Greenman mask:
              • This is a cosmetic reward, but it can also be used with ent branches to make the POH decorations.
              • Players can change the style of this mask to various other styles, such as normal, oak, willow, maple, yew, and magic styles.
            • Players will also be given vale research points when rummaging through the offerings.
              • These can be used in the Vale Research Exchange, run by Ranulph, to purchase the bow string spool, fletching knife, greenman mask, and ent branch.
                • All of the items in this shop will also be obtainable from the vale offerings.
  • POH decorations:
    • Players can use the ent branches obtained from the Totem fletching activity to make the following decorations:
      • Greenman Carving:
        • This requires level 79 fletching, and provides 70 base fletching experience.
          • It can be made with 5 ent branches, 1 greenman mask, and some yew logs.
        • In can be built in various rooms, including the dining room, combat room, or throne room.
      • Greenman statue:
        • This requires level 53 fletching, and provides 55 base fletching experience.
          • It can be made with 5 ent branches, 1 greenman mask, and some maple logs
        • It can be built in the player’s formal/normal gardens.
  • Custodia Stalker Den:
    • This is a new dungeon near Auburnvale that houses a new type of slayer monster.
    • This dungeon can be accessed from various entrances near Auburnvale, or using the teleport wizard.
    • New Rewards:
      • Broken Antler:
        • These are common drops that can be fletched into atlatl dart tips.
          • This requires level 74 fletching, and provides 10 base fletching experience.
            • Cutting 1 broken antler provides 100 atlatl dart tips.
      • Antler Guard:
        • This is a tribrid shield item that requires level 50 Prayer to wield.
          • It has stats that place it somewhere between an adamant and rune defender for melee, between an unholy book/book of law for ranged, and between an elemental tome/book of darkness for magic.
      • Alchemist’s Signet:
        • These signets can be used to open a chest in the Alchemical society’s headquarters (where the Mixology mini game takes place).
          • Opening the chest guarantees 1 noted aldarium, and has a chance to provide various noted herbs, seeds, and noted secondaries. 
    • Custodian Stalkers:
      • There are 4 types of custodian stalkers:
        • Juvenile custodian stalker:
          • Requires 54 slayer to kill and is level 93 combat.
          • Notable drops: Broken Antler
        • Mature custodian stalker:
          • Requires 67 slayer to kill and is level 117 combat.
          • Notable drops: Broken Antler, Antler Guard.
        • Elder custodian stalker:
          • Requires 76 slayer to kill and is level 142 combat.
          • Notable drops: Broken Antler, Antler Guard, Alchemist’s signet.
        • Ancient custodian stalker:
          • These are a superior variant of the elder custodian stalker.
          • Requires 76 slayer to kill and is level 239 combat.
          • Notable drops: Broken Antler, Antler Guard, Alchemist’s signet.
  • Atlatl dart fletching:
    • Players can now fletch atlatl darts.
    • To do so, players must use atlatl dart tips on headless atlatl darts.
      • This requires level 74 fletching to do.
        • Atlatl dart tips can be obtained from chiseling broken antlers.
        • Headless atlatl darts can be made from using atlatl dart shafts on feathers, the former of which can be made at level 74 fletching by cutting ent branches, 
  • Gemstone Crab:
    • Players can now fight the Gemstone crab in the Tlatli rainforest.
      • This is a multi-combat boss that has a unique healthbar mechanic.
        • Its healthbar works on a timer, rather than a hitpoint basis, allowing players to continuously attack the boss until it burrows away to one of the other locations.
          • It can spawn in a total of 3 different areas, and there is a cave entrance at each area which will take the player directly to the crab boss if they enter.
          • The timer lasts for 10 minutes at a time before the gemstone crab burrows away.
            • When it burrows away, the 16 players who did the most damage will be able to mine the crab’s shell 3 gems.
              • This requires a pickaxe, but does not provide any experience, and does not have any mining requirements.
                • Any gems obtained will go into the gem back if possible.
      • This boss only provides 87.5% of the normal combat experience, but is a superior afk training method at higher levels, since the gemstone crab cannot be killed faster by dealing more damage.
      • The Gemstone crab is immune to bolt special effects.
  • Tonali cavern:
    • Players can now enter the Tonali Cavern, containing Grimy Lizards, Moss Giants, Skeletons, Giant rock crabs, Rockslugs, and Earthen Naguas.
    • Players can get there by entering through the Tlatli rainforest entrances, or using the teleport wizard option.
    • Earthen Nagua:
      • These are a new level 128 enemy that requires 48 slayer to kill.
        • These nagua have a special mechanic, where upon reaching 60% hitpoints, they enter a reinforced form, making themselves more resistant to slash and less resistant to crush.
          • Hitting the nagua with a crush special attack while in this state will cause their armor to shatter and weaken them, reducing their defences.
      • These nagua drop the Earthbound tecpatl, which are similar to the Glacial temotli/Sulphur blades, but for the stab attack style.
  • Quetzal transportation and the Pendant of Ates have been expanded to include this new part of Varlamore.
    • The shops and shortcuts in the new towns have all been mapped out, as well as the new farming patches (a few of which have been added to the farmer’s blessing).
    • The teleport wizard can also take players to Auburnvale, the stalker den, and the Tonali cavern.
• Warriors Guild Shops:
  • Players can now use the warrior’s guild food and potion shops.
    • These are individually stocked for ironmen.
• Quality of Life:
  • Event zone changes:
    • Npc’s spawned during boss mass events will now distribute loot in a fairer way.
      • Any players who dealt 5% or more of the boss’ total hitpoints will now have a chance to get the loot when the boss dies.
        • This means that all players who are able to contribute a bit to the fight will have a fair chance, rather than just a small handful of players who can afford the best gear.
  • The amount of crystal shards obtained from The Gauntlet and The Corrupted Gauntlet has been increased from 3-7 to 5-9, and 5-9 to 7-12 respectively.
  • EIM/GIM/Realism players can now trade in emblems/relics for their full value.
    • Previously EIM/GIM players would get half the gp, and realism players would get 1/3 the full amount.
  • Players will now be notified that they’ve failed the “Let it seep in” combat achievement just before the fight with Araxxor begins if they have a poison/venom immunity or a serpentine helm equipped.
  • The Helmet of the Moon is now a 1/100 drop from the Moon chest, rather than 1/300.
  • Catching Dashing kebbits through Falconry will now provide raw dashing kebbit meat.
    • This can be cooked at level 83 cooking, providing 215 cooking experience.
      • When eaten, it will immediately heal 13 hitpoints, and then 10 more 7 ticks later.

Hello everyone,

Today’s update is a bit smaller content-wise than our usual, but mighty nonetheless! We’ve added a number of updates that have been on the back burner for far too long, such as the Telekinetic grab spell, Skull scepter crafting, and adding many missing items to the Collection log. Aside from these, we’ve applied some Yama fixes, and a bunch of other bug fixes / QoL. More below:

• Mobile fix:
  • Many parts of the mobile client felt "choppy", for example Olm’s animations, or the Dwarf multi-cannon would flicker back and forth. This should now be fixed.
• Chiselling Arterfacts:
  • Players can now use a chisel on ancient artefacts to break them down into revenant ether.
    • Ancient emblems break down into 1,000 ether.
    • Ancient totems break down in 2,000 ether.
    • Ancient statuettes break down into 4,000 ether.
    • Ancient Medallions break down into 8,000 ether.
    • Ancient Effigies break down into 16,000 ether.
    • Ancient Relics break down into 32,000 ether.
• World Map Hotkey:
  • Players can now open the world map with the ctrl/cmd + m hotkey.
    • This setting can be disabled in the settings interface.
• Ornate Combat Dummy:
  • Players can now build an ornate combat dummy in their player-owned house game room.
    • This requires level 58 construction, 5 teak planks, 1 black mask, 1 gold leaf, and 4 bolts of cloth to create, and provides 300 base construction experience.
    • This dummy spawns as a regular combat dummy, but can be swapped to various types of combat dummies.
      • All variants, including the regular one will apply the slayer helm bonuses when attacked with a slayer helmet/black mask equipped.
      • Undead Dummy:
        • This dummy acts as an undead npc, as well as a demon-type npc.
      • Revenant Dummy:
        • This dummy acts as a revenant npc (including being undead).
      • Kalphite Dummy:
        • This dummy has the “kalphite” attribute.
      • Kurask Dummy:
        • This dummy has the “Leafy” attribute.
      • Vampyre dummy:
        • This dummy has the “Vampyre” attribute.
      • Vorkath Dummy:
        • This dummy has the draconic attribute, as well as being undead.
• Skull Sceptre:
  • Players can now create the skull sceptre (I) by combining all 4 of the skull sceptre pieces.
    • This staff can be equipped at level 1, and has a built-in teleport to barbarian village.
      • This teleport has unlimited charges.
    • This staff can only auto-cast from the Arceuus spell book, or crumble undead from the normal spellbook.
• Collection Log Additions:
  • Chambers of Xeric:
    • Torn prayer scroll
    • Dark Relic
    • Onyx
  • Tombs of Amascut:
    • Jewel of Amascut
  • Slayer:
    • Granite longsword
    • Granite boots
    • Granite helm
    • Granite Legs
    • Bronze boots
    • Iron boots
    • Steel boots
    • Black boots
    • Mithril boots
    • Adamant boots
    • Rune Boots
    • Helmet of the Moon
  • Miscellaneous
    • All of the items added to this category can be instantly obtained if the player has the item by speaking to the collector in Edgeville.
    • Big Shark
    • Big Bass
    • Big Swordfish
    • Broken zombie helm
    • Right skull half
    • Left skull half
    • Top of sceptre
    • Bottom of sceptre
• Yama Fixes/Adjustments:
  • Contract of Bloodied blows fix:
    • The “Wretched Strength” boost from this contract will now also increase the player’s minimum damage.
      • The player’s minimum damage will now be equal to the player’s max hit multiplied by the boost from wretched strength.
        • So if the player’s max hit is 78, and their wretched strength boost is 0.9 (90%) from having low hitpoints, the damage will be 70.
    • The “Wretched Strength” boost will now be applied to the damage later in the damage calculations, leading to the overall boost to the player’s damage being quite a bit higher.
      • It should now be far easier to one-hit the void flares with half-health.
    • Yama will no longer spawn void flares in phase 1/2 unless the next attack is a shadow-based special attack.
  • Yama glyphs will now last 10 ticks instead of 9.
• Pet Loss:
  • Pets will no longer be lost on death.
    • Players will still need to pay any fees to reclaim pets that are stored with probita (that were there before, or that were/are emptied).
    • Previously, when a player died, they would lose their pet and need to pay a fee to reclaim it from Probita.
      • The pet will now continue to follow the player after their death, regardless of if it’s a PvM or PvP death.
        • If the pet is in the player’s inventory, it will be lost similar to before, and will need to be reclaimed from Probita.
• Guthix Rests:
  • Players with level at least 18 herblore can now make Guthix Rests.
    • They can be made by combining 2 Guams, 1 harralander and 1 marrentill into a cup of hot water.
      • Players must have all ingredients in their inventory at the time of creation.
        • Creating the rest will provide 59 base Herblore experience.
    • Cups of hot water can be acquired by heating up a cup of water on a range, or heating up a bowl on a range and then transferring the hot water to an empty cup.
      • This provides no cooking experience, but is a much faster process than cooking food.
• Slayer Changes:
  • Individual Slayer Master Block Lists:
    • Instead of having one block list for all slayer tasks/maters, there will now be 3 different block lists.
      • Normal slayer tasks (primarily obtained from niece).
      • Wilderness slayer tasks (only obtained from Krystilia).
      • Location-base slayer tasks (only obtained from Konar).
    • Player’s existing block lists have been wiped, and their points have been refunded for the blocked tasks.
    • Any tasks blocked will only apply to the tasks obtained from that specific type of slayer (normal, wilderness, location-based).
      • The same goes for blocked boss tasks.
  • The task storage permanent unlocking now costs 500 slayer points rather than 1,000.
    • Players who paid 1,000 will be refunded the extra 500 points upon logging in.
  • Unlock price changes:
    • Ring bling will now cost 150 slayer points rather than 300.
    • Bigger and Badder will now cost 50 slayer points rather than 150.
    • Slug Salter will now cost 10 slayer points rather than 80.
    • Players who have already paid the old price to unlock these perks will be refunded the difference upon logging in.
  • Unlock/Extension Changes:
    • I hope you mith me:
      • This has been replaced with “Warped reality”, unlocking warped creatures as a task.
        • The points for this unlock have been refunded to players who had it.
    • Pedal to the Medals:
      • This now applies to the generic “metal dragons” tasks, except for the lithkren metal dragons assigned by Konar.
        • This will increase metal dragon task amounts from 20-40 to 150-200.
    • I really mith you:
      • This has been replaced with the “Oh Brother” extension, which extends barrows tasks to 90-130 kills per task.
        • The points for I really mith you have been refunded to players who had it unlocked.
    • Ada’mind some more:
      • This extension has been replaced with the “Harder than mithril” extension, extending lithkren dragons from Konar from 3-7 to 20-40.
        • The points will be refunded to players who had this extension.
    • RUUUUUUNE:
      • This has been replaced with the “More at stake” extension, extending vampire tasks to 200-250 assigned.
        • The points will be refunded to players who had this extension.
  • Duo Slayer Improvements:
    • Partnering process:
      • The player who is requesting to partner with another player will now have clearer indications of the status of their request.
        • If the player who they want to partner with logs off, walks away, declines, etc.. The requesting player will be notified right away, whereas previously they would not be.
    • Cancellation process:
      • If the partner doesn’t have a slayer streak, they will no longer need to go through any confirmation interfaces when their partner cancels a slayer task using free skips.
      • Fixed a bug where it was possible to keep your partner, but have different tasks, leading to unintended partner behaviour.
  • The Slayer plugin has been updated to be a lot more consistent.
    • It should now properly track all tasks extremely accurately (even location based tracking), and be able to pickup where it left off after a player logs out and logs back in again.
• Individual Shop Stocks:
  • Ironmen now have individual shop stocks for various different types of shops:
    • This includes all rune shops and trading post shops, as well as Ordan’s ores, and a few of the range shops that stock arrows.
    • This means that ironman shop quantities for these shops will remain unaffected by purchases made by other players, so if a player hasn’t opened a shop in a while, it should always be fully stocked.
    • We’ve also split the realism/normal player stocks.
• New Spells:
  • Players with level 42 magic or higher can now cast the monster inspect spell in the normal spell book.
    • This costs 2 body runes and 2 mind runes to cast, and works like the monster examine spell lunar spell.
      • It provides 31 base experience per cast.
  • Players with level 33 magic or higher can now cast Telekinetic Grab on the normal spell book.
    • This spell lets players pickup items from a max distance of 10 tiles away at the cost of 1 air and 1 law rune.
    • This spell provides 43 base magic experience per cast, and picks up 1 item at a time, or an entire stack if the item is stackable.
• Steel Ring:
  • The Deranged Archeologist now drops the "Steel ring" at a 1/43 drop rate.
    • This ring provides +24 slash/stab/crush defence.
• Keris Partisan of Amascut:
  • This is a new Keris partisan variant that, similar to the Keris partisan of corruption and Keris partisan of the sun, can only be used in the Tombs of Amascut.
    • This Keris boasts a much higher stab bonus than the other Keris partisan variants, at +108.
      • It also provides the damage/accuracy boost against Kalphites/scarabs, but only 15% rather than 33%.
        • The 1/51 chance to deal triple damage still remains.
  • This weapon can be made by combining the Jewel of Amascut with the Keris Partisan.
    • This jewel is obtained the same way as the other Tombs of Amascut jewels, and will be the next jewel that players obtain if they’ve already obtained the other 3 jewels.
• Shark Lure:
  • Players can now obtain shark lures from the following sources:
    • Zulrah
    • Vorkath
    • Phantom Muspah
    • Grotesque Guardians
    • Drakes
    • Thermonuclear Smoke Devil
    • Larran’s Chest
    • Konar's Chest
  • These lures can be used when fishing sharks to speed up fishing by quite a bit,
    • Players can configure the lures to be used in quantities of 1/3/5 at a time.
      • Higher quantities speed up catch speed but reduce experience earned.
        • 1 lure used reduces experience to 27.5 base fishing experience per shark.
        • 3 lures used reduces experience to 22 base fishing experience per shark.
        • 5 lures used reduces experience to 18 base fishing experience per shark.
  • Share Lures can be stored in the tackle box.
• Shop Changes:
  • The Edgeville/varrock general shopkeepers will now open individual general stores for ironmen.
  • The minimum general store sell price will now be 20% of the items alch value (this is up from about 7-8%).
    • So it will now start at low-alch (unless it’s a Karamja general store with Karamja gloves), and the sell price will reduce as stock builds back up, down to 20% of the items value.
    • Paul, the ironman shopkeeper, will now buy all items at 20% of their value.
      • This is increased to 25% with the Varrock hard diaries, and 30% with the Varrock Elite diaries.
• Drop Changes:
  • The rate of the tooth half of moon key has been greatly increased from all mobs in the Ruins of Tepoyauik.
  • Adamant dragons, fossil Island wyverns, basilisk knights, and lizardman shamans now drop un-noted herbs rather than noted herbs.
• Quality of Life:
  • Yama's shadow crash attack will now begin after yama snaps his fingers.
  • Added attack sounds to the hunllef fight.
  • The hunllefs damage will now be calculated at the start of the animation, rather than when the damage is registered.
  • Players will now receive a confirmation dialogue when using an imbuement scroll.
  • The rats spawned by scurries will now be instantly killed in one hit, even if the player’s max hit is less than 15.
  • Scurrius’ mage/range projectile attacks are now delayed by 1 extra game tick.
  • Players will now be told the total number of barrows points they have after each barrows run.
  • The silver jewelry creation options will now appear when left-clicking a furnace if the player has silver bars instead of gold bars.
  • Uncut onyx in the TzHaar Gem Store will now cost 260,000 Tokkul instead of 300,000 if you are wearing any pair of Karamja gloves.
  • Damage from the nightmare will now be calculated 1 tick later.
    • This will give players more time to protect from the auto-attacks with prayer.
  • Players can now use the skull skip technique to avoid taking damage from the Warden’s energy siphon attack in phase 3 of the Tombs of Amascut final room.
  • Scarab swarms no longer drop bones.
  • The UFO attack during the Wardens phase 1 fight now has safe spots on the edge of the arena.
  • Completionist capes and hoods/monkey variants can now be stored in the POH cape rack.
  • Npc death animations will now play a few ticks earlier to make the death process smoother.
  • Dragon hunter weaponry damage bonuses will now be applied at the very end of the damage calculations.
    • Previously it was factoring the bonus damage on the original damage roll, rather than the damage roll after applying boosts such as the slayer helmet boost.
  • Armoured Zombies now drop the broken zombie helmet.
    • Players with 70 smithing can use repair it on an anvil.
    • The helmet requires level 50 defence and strength to equip.
  • The Crystals during the Colosseum final wave will now play a sound when charging up their lasers.
  • The Javelin Colossus’ special attack will now get the player’s location 2 ticks after the animation starts, rather than right as the animation starts.
  • Players can now reclaim any max or completionist cape hood by using the cape on Mac.
    • This process is free of charge.
  • Baby mimic inventory icon now looks like the pet (instead of just a silver box).
  • "Stoking" the Tormy pet will now have the player do an animation.
  • The left-click "teleport" option on the portal nexus will now correspond to the default teleport set in the "Configuration" menu, rather than the last location teleported to.
    • Players can also toggle the “left-click” box in the configuration interface to disable the left-click functionality entirely.
• Bug fixes:
  • Fixed a bug where the special counter plugin would not clear specials after some npc's died (in raids usually).
    • The special counters will now be cleared after a player leaves a raid, so it will no longer linger until they restart the client or the plugin.
  • Fixed a bug where the Venator bow's ricochet projectile was using the Echo venator bow projectile.
  • Fixed a bug where the guaranteed spell hits against the Nylocas Matomenos were not working properly.

  • Players in PvP will now make sure to always move within the 11 tile maximum freeze distance when in PvP.

  • Players will no longer receive duplicate huntsman kit's from hunter loot sacks.
  • Fixed a bug where the Guardians of the Rift drop table was showing a nature house instead of a Nature talisman.
  • Fixed a bug where players could not click on the parts of the game scene when the world map was open, even if they had the "Click outside interface" setting enabled.

@EraKo For bug reports, it's always best to put them in the correct section.

https://www.alora.io.../22-bug-report/

As for these fixes:

1. This is no problem, I can make it so that any hits always insta-kill the rats, even if your max hit is less than a 15.
2. This is already as it is, it wouldn't be possible for us to calculate the damage any later than we currently do. In this situation, I can delay the damage registering by 1 tick, since this is meant to be a beginner boss, and I understand some players don't have the best ping.

Your suggestion has been accepted.

Your suggestion has been declined, if you feel this was wrongfully done please contact a Senior Moderator+.

Your suggestion has been accepted.

The reason we require confirmation from the other party is because there may be cases where the super donator cancellation will also cancel their streak. After investigating though, there are a few things that can certainly be polished up with Duo Slayer, including smoother notifications when partnering with players, as well as improving synchronization when cancelling a task. We can also make it so that if the partner has no slayer streak then it will automatically accept the cancel, and that will make issues like this no longer possible (since if you're skipping more than once using the free skips, the partner will no longer have a streak).

Your suggestion has been accepted.

Hello everyone,
 
This update brings a wave of content and improvements across the board — particularly many balancing tweaks to improve your bossing/raiding experience, along with a range of other quality-of-life improvements throughout the game. We’ve also added an extensive new Yama Contract system, along with combat achievements, new deposit box functionality, cosmetic equippable flowers, the highly requested Tormented Demon pet and dozens of fixes.

• Tormented Demon pet:
  • Tormy can now be obtained as a drop from Tormented demons!
    • The rate is ~1/2,419 by default, prior to any boosters or donator rank bonuses.
    • You can "stroke" Tormy, which will cause him to animate and create a flame around him.
• Equippable flowers:
  • Players now have a rare chance to obtain equippable flowers (untradable) each time they participate in a Flower Poker match. The drop rates are intentionally low to preserve their prestige:
    • 1 / 20,000: Common flowers (Red, blue, yellow, purple, orange)
    • 1 / 30,000: Mixed flowers
    • 1 / 40,000: Assorted flowers
    • 1 / 60,000: Black flowers
    • 1 / 100,000: White flowers
  • Each player has 5 chances in total per Flower poker match to roll (reducing 1 / 20k to 1 / 4k per match, or 1 / 2k if you consider both players’ chances). They can also be obtained via planting flowers normally outside of FP (similar to Trollweiss flowers, which are 1 / 15,777 chance — but that item cannot be obtained from FP). Good luck planting!
• Nightmare Changes:
  • Visual Changes:
    • These visual changes apply to both the Nightmare and Phosani’s nightmare.
      • The nightmare’s healthbar will now be blue/black instead of the standard green/red.
      • When attacking Phosani’s nightmare, it would previously show a mostly depleted healthbar overhead.
        • This healthbar will now start full at the beginning of each phase, so it is visually accurate.
      • The Cyan hitmarkers have been updated to the cyan shield hitmarker.
        • This can also show a slightly different hitmarker for max hits.
      • The Disease hitmarkers on the totems have been updated to the yellow arrow hitmarker.
        • This can also show a slightly different hitmarker for max hits.
      • The damage that the nightmare takes from the totems will now be visually higher/more accurate to the hitpoints the nightmare has.
  • Phosani’s Nightmare Mechanical Changes:
    • Phosani’s Nightmare now has 1 less phase.

  • Nex will always perform at least two more melee attacks whenever she uses one, on all phases. This only happens if the player she's attempting to attack is within melee distance.

  • Some more npc’s were given new flat armour values, and have had their hitpoints reduced.
    • The list of changed npc’s are in the google doc above.
• Tombs of Amascut Changes:
  • Apmeken:
    • Protect from Melee now blocks all of Ba-ba’s damage, unless prayer effectiveness is reduced by an invocation.
    • If the jungle japes invocation is active, baboons are now guaranteed to spawn a banana peel.

    • Bosses now have a cap on how much their defence levels can be drained.
      • Previously, players could drain the boss defence levels to 0 in only a few hits.
        • These bosses now have caps, for example, Ba-ba can only have 20 defence levels drained, so players can reduce it from 80->60.
        • Maximum Defence reductions:
          • Ba-ba: -20 levels
          • Zebak: -20 levels

        • This can be used on pieces of oathplate armour to create the Radiant oathplate armour, a prestige cosmetic variant.
        • The sigil is not consumed when used on a piece of armour, so players will only need to obtain the sigil once.

  • The deposit box interface is now more comprehensive. 
  • Players can now lock inventory slots from the deposit box interface.
  • Players can now unequip or directly deposit equipment from the deposit box interface.
• Bounty Hunter Teleport Changes:
  • Previously, the bounty hunter teleport would aim to put pkers 9-14 tiles away from their target, as a balancing mechanic to give players a chance to escape.
    • This would lead to pkers sometimes getting a message indicating there was no safe location to teleport to in some cases when their targets were in areas that could not accommodate a player appearing 9-14 tiles away from think (the top floor of the rogues’ castle, for example).
      • The teleport will now bring pkers closer to their targets if they are in close quarters areas like this, but only after initially trying to put them 9-14 tiles away, as it previously did.
        • Most functionality for this spell will remain the same, but pkers should now get fewer instances of not being able to teleport to their targets, and in some cases when unavoidable, will be teleported closer to their targets.

  • Abyssal Sire now does half as much chip damage from its Melee attacks when players are praying correctly.
  • Abyssal Sire’s tentacles can no longer be damage by multi-spells/attacks.
