Hotfixes applied on July 19, 2018:

• Combat:
  • Fixed a bug with Magic attacks and special attacks in the same tick.
• Theatre of Blood:
  • Dawnbringer special attack seemed to constantly hit 75. It will not hit a minimum of 75, and a maximum of 150.
  • Rewards:
    • Sanguinesti staff would apply the healing effect when using it to cast other spells (eg. Ice barrage), when it should have only been applying it to attacks with its own built in spell.
    • Charging the Scythe of Vitur would only require 300 blood runes and 1 vial of blood to get to full. It should be 300 blood runes and 1 vial for 100 charges, which it has now been patched to require.
    • Battlemage + Bastion potion ingredients were swapped — Potato cactus is now used to create the Battlemage potion, and Wine of Zamorak is used to create the Bastion potion.
  • Fixed a bug which would “null” the Maiden and cause her to not attack anyone.
  • Fixed a bug which caused Sotetseg’s (dark beast) special attack (red magic ball which should be split) to not hit any damage.
• Daily task fixes:
  • The “Use 100 Dagannoth bones on an altar” task would only work if you used 1 bone at a time. It will now work when you use all of your bones on the altar.
• Slayer:
  • Rune/Adamant dragons will no longer be assigned to players who have not completed Dragon Slayer 2.

Hotfixes applied on July 17, 2018:

• Theatre of Blood bugs/changes:
  • General:
    • Any items dropped within the raid will be instantly visible to your teammates. This will allow you to more quickly drop supplies to share between teammates.
    • Fixed a bug which would cause a player to get stuck in a death-cycle if the ceiling collapses in the Nylocas room and the player is not in that room at the time.
  • Phases:
    • Maiden:
      • A bug which caused players to not be freed from the prison in the first (Maiden) room.
      • A bug which caused the Maiden to still be able to attack players in the prison of the first room should now be fixed.
      • Blood spawns (rolling balls) can now be attacked by multiple players at once.
      • A safespot which caused the Nylocas to not move has been fixed.
    • Nylocas Vasilias:
      • This phase will now scale according to the team size. For example, if you enter solo the room will be 60% of the difficulty of a 5 player team. The number of Nylocas required as well as the amount that spawn simultaneously is nerfed.
      • The larger Nylocas (which die and split into two) will now deal 2 damage to the pillars instead of 1.
      • You can no longer leave this room during the boss fight.
    • Sotetseg:
      • The dark beast’s attacks have been slowed down. The projectiles will now fly towards players more slowly, giving you more time to coordinate your prayer switches.
        • This includes the Red magic ball which hits up to 115 if no other players are nearby to split the damage.
          • Additionally, if the shadow phase begins, none of the incoming attacks should do any damage. This helps immensely if a large red ball is coming towards you, as you would be unable to split it with teammates when sent to the Shadow realm.
      • Shadow realm:
        • During this stage, it was easier to just run across the room quickly and tank 30-40 damage. This damage has been increased from 3-12 to 12-24 to prevent this from occurring and to force players to complete the path. The damage from the red vortex has also been increased accordingly.
      • Prayer disabling:
        • It will also no longer disable your prayers if you are not praying at all. For example, if a range attack hits you and you are praying against melee, your prayers will be disabled for a few seconds. But if you did not have any prayer active, you will not have your prayers disabled.
    • Xarpus:
      • Healing phase length has been reduced by over 30%. It should move to it’s acid attack more quickly.
      • At the final phase where he faces a corner, if he was in the process of turning towards your corner and you attack him, he would KO you. There is now a delay between switching corners, meaning that you will not get KO’d unless he has fully faced the corner you are attacking from.
      • You can no longer go through the 2nd barrier if the boss is not defeated (you would get stuck there previously)
  • Rewards:
    • If you receive a rare drop, it will not be announced to the world on the yell channel early. It will only be announced once you open the chest.
    • The Scythe of Vitur was misconfigured, and has now been fixed.
• Chambers of Xeric changes:
  • A bug which caused the Dragon thrown axes reward to show up as Dragon claws on the reward interface has been fixed (it did not actually give Dragon claws as a reward, but simply showed them on the interface).

Other:

• Pest control bugs:
  • Pest control portals were bugged due to a change in the latest OSRS cache. This has now been fixed.
  • The Runner hat will now be added to the lost items manager’s shop upon death.
• Arrows will now stack on the ground when you shoot them (broken from last update)
• Dagannoth kings update:
  • The three kings will now be more defensive against the attack styles that should not be used to kill them. For example, Dagannoth rex could previously be hit with melee though it should be required that players use magic to damage him.
• Whitescreen / client crash fix:
  • A problem which caused players in lumbridge to disconnect and not be able to log back in has been fixed.

 
Hello everyone,
 
Make sure to check out the competitions for Raids 2 over here: https://www.alora.io...od-competition/
 
The waiting is finally over! The Theatre of Blood is now open for your entertainment. Hop right into it with your most trusted allies in hopes of obtaining epic rewards.
 
You can participate in the Theatre of Blood by using the mini games menu on the teleport interface, or by speaking to the Mysterious Stranger slightly south of Edgeville near the Lost items manager.
 
We’ve spent as much time as we could perfecting this Raid, from the exact attacks and mechanics of the bosses, right down the music that plays in each room. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we have putting it together for you! I’d also like to give a huge thank you to all of the beta testers who helped identify bugs before release.
 
 
Without further ado…

• Slayer task changes:
  • Mithril dragons have been moved from Extreme tasks to Hard tasks, where Rune/Adamant dragons are.
  • Cave horrors are now available as Medium a Slayer task! You can be assigned between 40-110 of them.
• Giant mole fixes:
  • Instance:
    • The Giant mole would often dig it’s way out of the instance, never to be seen again. This has been fixed, and the mole will now always reappear somewhere within your instanced cave.
    • Additionally, the “Time remaining” overlay would sometimes disappear within the instanced mole cave.
  • General:
    • The dig animation will now show up every time (sometimes you would not see it), as well as a new message that tells you that the mole has dug its way out of the fight.
  • Barrage(and other multi spell) PvM fixes:
    • Barrage would only hit other enemies that were within 1 tile of the main target. This does not work well with large enemies, such as the Nylocas from the Theatre of blood. Multi-spells will now hit enemies surrounding the main target based on size.
      • For example, if your target is size 5 and is barraged, any targets within 5 tiles from the central location will be affected. (Creates a much larger radius, allowing you to barrage large NPCs in a stack)
  • Mute timer fix:
    • If you are muted and attempt to yell or speak, you will be told how long is left until your mute is lifted. This timer was incorrect, meaning that even if the mute would be lifted in 5 hours, it would show random numbers (Eg. 24 hours or more). This timer will now be accurate.
  • Raids 1 (Chambers of Xeric) updates:
    • Dragon Thrownaxes are now a much more common drop from Raids. It is too uncommon in-game and should be more accessible for use in PvP. It has been added to the resources table (herbs, essence, etc).
  • Combat fixes:
    • Fixed Torag’s armour set + Amulet of the damned effect being way too defensive, making it almost impossible to penetrate.
    • Smite fix:
      • If you hit more damage than the player’s current hitpoints (eg. 70 with AGS on a player with 30 HP), Smite would previously reduce their prayer points based on the 70 HP removed. It will now base it off of the maximum hitpoints that can be removed from the victim, meaning 30HP in this case.
    • Ruby bolt (e) special attack damage capped to 100.

• Miscellaneous:
  • Fixed a bug with Dragon Slayer 2 where the quest would show up as green (complete) in the quest tab, but was in fact incomplete as you did not kill Vorkath yet.
  • All defenders from Bronze-Rune (not including Dragon) had the incorrect Defender animation and have been fixed.
  • Fixed a bug with the “Craft 500 Wrath runes” Daily task (would only count 1 inventory as 1/500 (whether you have 1 or 28 essence)
  • When players defeated a Juggernaut in a safe area (eg. Clan wars), their death would not be announced. This has been fixed, and their death will be announced regardless of their location.
  • Fixed a bug which allowed players watching BR to enter the arena and attack people.
  • Fixed a bug with dropped items causing them to appear sooner than possible if someone knows there is an item on a certain tile.
  • Pet drop scrolls / Rare drop scrolls renamed to:
    • Pet booster / Drop booster
  • Fixed a Clan wars bug that allowed players to force teleport out of areas.

• Theatre of Blood
  • Requirements:
    • You must have a Total level of at least 1250 to enter the Theatre.
  • The Theatre of Blood is now available to any player who is up for the challenge!
    • The Theatre contains 6 different rooms:
      • The Maiden of Sugadinti
        • The Maiden will primarily target the nearest player with a Magic-based attack, but also shoots out blood spawns every so often at every player in the room. Nylocas Matomenos will also appear at 66.6% and 33.3% health to heal her. If they reach her successfully, they will heal her for however much health they have remaining.
      • Pestilent Bloat
        • The Bloat will walk around while severed arms and legs fall from the ceiling. You must avoid the Bloat as well as the falling objects until the Bloat falls asleep, at which point you can deal damage to it.
      • Nylocas Vasilias
        • Hordes of Nylocas will spawn in rapid succession until Nylocas Vasilias, the largest of them, will drop from the ceiling for a battle more worthy of your time.
      • Sotetseg
        • The dark beast, which has attacks that bounce between players. He will also occasionally drag a player into the Shadow realm, where they must solve a maze which other players must try to follow.
      • Xarpus
        • Xarpus begins weakened; exhumed skeletons appear on the floor to heal him. If you stand on top of them, they will not be able to heal him. Eventually, Xarpus will cover the room with acid attacks, so you’ll need to watch your step. At 25% hitpoints, Xarpus will face a single corner for a few seconds. If you attack from the same corner he is facing, you will be killed quickly. You’ll have to coordinate your attacks to survive this wave.
      • Verzik Vitur
        • The final battle is a challenging one -- it beings with Verzik seated on the throne and protected by a shield that can only be taken down with the Dawnbringer. You must time your attacks, hiding behind the pillars while Verzik launches her attack. Eventually, Verzik will walk down to the centre of the room and attack with all styles.
    • Rewards:
      • Justiciar armour
        • Wearing the full set will apply a damage reduction in PvM. The exact formula for the amount of damage reduced is bonus / 3000, where bonus is the player's defence bonus for that particular style. Stacks with Elysian spirit shield effect.
      • Scythe of Vitur
        • Must be charged with Vials of blood and Blood runes.
        • Has a multi-damaging effect which allows you to attack multiple (up to 3) nearby enemies at once. If it is a larger creature, it can deal up to 3 hits on it.
      • Sanguinesti Staff
        • Must be charged with Blood runes.
        • Similar to the Trident of the Swamp, has a built in attack. Can deal slightly more damage than the Trident, having a base max hit of 34.
      • Avernic hilt (defender)
        • Used to create the Avernic defender when combined with the Dragon defender.
      • Blood vials
        • Used to create Battlemage and Bastion potions
      • … as well as many different supplies!
    • Each room has it’s own unique mechanics which will require you to coordinate with your teammates to properly escape the Theatre alive.
  • FAQ:
    • Will this count as a dangerous death for Hardcore Ironmen?
      • No. We feel that this is too limiting, and we’d like our HCIM to be able to participate in this content.
    • Will I lose items if I die within the Theatre?
      • No. Your items are safe upon death.
    • What happens if I die within?
      • You are placed into a prison while your teammates complete the room. If everyone dies, the raid is failed.
    • What if I run low on supplies?
      • There are two supply chests within the raid, at the 30% and 70% completion marks. Depending on your performance, the Vampyres will award you points to spend on supplies in these chests. (Saradomin brews, restores, food, stamina potions)

• Client updates:
  • A client icon for OSX has been added to the tray.
  • Fixed an issue with the mouse when switching items.

• Forums:
  • Like button has been upgraded to be more personal! (Smite icon, purple color)

 
 
 
 
As always, please make sure to report any bugs that you find in the appropriate section. Enjoy! :)
 
Regards,
Omicron

After 2 weeks away from Alora, I'm back and ready to get the job done. I would like to thank the entire Staff Team for holding it down in my absence. We have a few promotions this week and quite a few Demotions/Resignations that happened last week. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and gets prepared for Raids 2!

Promotions:

king purple has been promoted to Event Manager. He will be assisting F 8 with weekend events and also will be starting Weekday events. I am very excited to finally start seeing official events throughout the week and seeing what Purple can bring to the table as our newest EM!

EIM Chong has been promoted to Server Support.

Shamrock has been promoted to Server Support.

Demotions/Resignations:

Algalon has been demoted from Forum Moderator due to lack of communication and activity within the Staff Team.

Love it brother, although personally i think sticking true to OSRS and having hardcore ironman lose status would make sense i believe that with how our game has developed "locking out" a gamemode from end game wouldnt really be a good idea. Think it should be a safe death for all gamemodes with no worries of losing their hardwork through a big endgame experience such as Theatre of Blood and Chambers of Xeric. Their are still mainly other risks for hardcore status so it wouldnt really make the status less challenging.

Instances expansion:

• Giant mole instance:
  • Due to popular demand, the Giant mole area can now be instanced!
    • For the price of 4.5m, you can create an instance for your clan and kill as many Giant moles as you’d like within a 90 minute period.

• Themonuclear smoke devil instance:
  • Also a highly requested instance, the Thermonuclear smoke devil can now be instanced!
    • For the price of 4m, you can create an instance for 90 minutes

Bracket tournament area:

• A new area with 5 different 1v1 combat pits has been added for tournament use. Event managers may use this area to host multiple fights at once. Deaths are safe here, and the only way to enter one of the arenas is to be teleported in by a staff member, but you can teleport there by typing in ::1v1.

Drop Boost Scrolls:

• Rare drop scroll:
  • Improve your chances for loot with this scroll! Redeeming a scroll will give you a 30 minute 15% rare drop boost, making those extra-rare drops more likely during your bossing session. Here are the details:
    • This applies to any rare monster loot, as well as Raids loot (Chambers of Xeric, as well as the Theatre of Blood once released).
    • You will be notified that your scroll helped you in receiving your loot if you do receive any rare loot.
• Pet drop scroll:
  • Improve your chances to receive Pets by 25% for 30 minutes! 
    • This applies to all pets, including those found from: Skilling, bossing and mini-games (Such as raids). It also improves your chances when gambling Infernal/Fire capes for pets!

• Added an awesome loading animation to the loader (Huge thanks to @Jare for creating this animation, it looks absolutely incredible!)                   

                  ​

Hello everyone,

I’m very excited to announce that Elite Ironman Mode is now live! You can jump straight in and create an Elite ironman on a fresh account (or any account that you already own that has not yet completed the beginner tutorial) and participate in the action! Make sure to check out the PvP tournament as well as the numerous events with both IRL Cash prizes and token rewards for those who are brave enough to compete:

PvP tournament ($500 in Cash prizes): http://www.alora.io/forums/topic/32927-elite-ironman-pvp-tournament-500-in-cash-prizes

Elite competitions ($380 in Token prizes): http://www.alora.io/forums/topic/32918-elite-ironman-release-announced-competition-information/

Without further ado…

• Elite Ironman (Duo) mode is now available!
  • Elite Ironman is a new challenge for Ironmen who want a lower XP rate than the standard modes, but do not want the open economy of Classic mode or the death mechanics of the HCIM. It also opens the door to a brand new Duo/Partner functionality which allows you to choose a friend to play the new game mode with! Here are the details:
    • Experience rate:
      • 4x base rate
        • This rate is slightly lower than Classic mode to provide a new challenge for players who desire more challenging gameplay, and to truly live up to the “Elite” name the game mode entails.
    • Experience bonuses:
      • The same limitations of the HCIM/Classic modes apply. Typical XP bonuses such as the Well of Goodwill will give 50% of the usual bonus (15% rather than 30%), and Vote books can only be opened once every 12 hours.
    • Duo/Partner feature:
      • A long requested feature, Elite Ironman can now choose to play with (or without!) a partner in their adventure.
        • This partner is the only player you can trade with, and can only be chosen once!
        • A partner can only be chosen within the first 12 hours of play time (time actually spent in-game, NOT the time since your account was created).
          • This means that you and the person you’d like to be your partner must “pair” within the first 12 hours of playtime. After that, you can no longer choose a partner, NOR can you modify your existing partner.
          • You and your partner both, of course, must be Elite Ironmen and not already have partners.
          • You can speak to Paul at home to select a partner.
    • Highscores:
      • The highscores for the Elite Ironman mode are also available, and they will show:
        • a) If a player has a partner, the partner’s name will be listed
        • OR
        • If they do not have a partner, it will be noted that they are Solo EIM players.
    • Vote books:
      • You can only open a vote book once every 12 hours.
      • Other accounts (normal) can not give you vote books. Only your partner can.
      • You cannot open another vote book if you still have bonus XP.
    • Bonds/donations:
      • Bonds are the only item you can transfer from your main to your EIM.
      • The same donation rules that apply to other ironmen/classics apply to EIM (mostly cosmetic only).
    • Clan chat:
      • “Elite” clan chat will be auto-joined for elite players (if not already full).
    • De-ironing:
      • If you wish to de-iron, you have to options:
        • IF you were solo:
          • You can de-iron to either Regular Ironman, or to Classic mode. The choice is yours.
        • IF you were duo:
          • You can ONLY de-iron to Classic. Since you had the trading ability, you can never be a regular ironman again.
    • Gold:
      • Similar to Classics, Elites receive half the usual gold. This is because we allow Elites to de-iron to Classic, and do not want to allow people to smuggle more gold than there should be into the Classic economy.
    • Unique Item:
      • Since the Elite Ironman don’t have a gold Ironman set, an item to signify their status has been added: The Champion’s cape.
        • This cape will be give to every Elite Ironman, and can be re-obtained from Paul if lost.

• Duo Slayer
  • You can now partner up with another player on your Slayer tasks!
    • How to partner up/unpartner:
      • Use an Enchanted gem (purchased from Slayer store) on another player to partner up with them!
        • You and the other player must both:
          • Be online
          • Not already have a Slayer task or a Slayer partner.
      • Once you send a request, the other player will have to confirm. Once confirmed, you will be partnered up!
        • If you already have a Slayer task, your new partner will be given the same task.
    • How it works:
      • When you kill an assigned slayer monster you receive full Slayer points for the kill.
        • If your partner is nearby (within 64 steps), you will split the experience at a 75%/25% split for that kill. The killer will receive 75%, and the partner 25%. Additionally, the # of kills they need for their task will also be deducted.
    • What’s the point?
      • Duo Slayer is simply a way to work with your friends towards tasks. There isn’t a huge added benefit, but you do receive 10% extra Slayer points from completing tasks when you’re in a duo.
        • Additionally, since you receive Slayer points whenever you complete a task, there is a slight benefit to completing the tasks more quickly in a duo.
    • Can I partner with anyone?
      • Yes. Regardless of game modes, you can choose anyone to be your Slayer partner. If your experience rates are different, you will not receive more experience than you usually would. The base experience is split, and then your mode multiplier is factored in. You can only have Slayer partner at a time, though.
    • What happens if I cancel our task/complete our task?
      • Your partner must be online to change your task. If they are not online and you need to cancel your task or get a new one, you’ll have to unpartner with that player.
      • If your partner is online, you can cancel/change your task as you normally would, and your partner will be put on the same task.
    • NOTE:
      • When selecting a task as a duo, both of your Slayer levels are factored in. For example, if one player has 20 Slayer and the other has 95 Slayer, you cannot get Abyssal demons as a task since one of the players doesn’t have the requirements.

• Lizardman Shaman Cave:
  • The Lizardman Shaman cave is now added! Due to crowding issues at times, we’ve decided to implement these caves.
    • Players will no longer be limited to the previous 3 Shamans, but can now fight an extra 10 Shamans within the caves.
      • The cave can be accessed from the usual Lizardman area. You will see a cave there that you can enter.
  • Notes:
    • The caves are single-combat, so only 1 shaman can attack you at a time.
    • Dwarf multi-cannons can not be used within these caves.

• Server performance improvements:
  • Recently, we’ve devoted some time into resolving the issues that cause the server to have occasional lag spikes at around the ~4-5 day uptime mark. We’re confident that some recent changes we’ve made to the game engine code will help to greatly alleviate this issue and may solve it permanently. 
• Miscellaneous:
  • Varrock armour (chest plates) and Black wizard robes (t and g) now cover your body without “holes”.
  • Fixed a bug that allowed you to change between custom skin colours once you already had one (eg. Going from red to yellow skin at the Make over mage)
  • Fixed broken no-clip ladder in Ape Atoll. 
  • Zul-andra teleport can no longer be worn.
  • Rune pouch fix:
    • Wrath runes no longer show up as “faded” in the Rune pouch interface. You can now store 5, 10, or X number of wrath runes in your pouch as with any other rune.
  • Karambwan fishing fixed:
    • The fishing spots on the Karamja dock now allow you to fish Karambwan as intended.
  • Object interaction bug:
    • Fixed a bug which allowed you to interact with objects (eg. A Runecrafting altar) from afar.
      • This also includes the same sort of bug with Item-on-object actions.
  • ::shops command fixed:
    • This command will now take all Ironmen to Paul.
• Ironman shop update:
  • Home teleport tablets added to Ironman shop for the time being.
    • Once tab creation in Construction is added, this will be removed.
• Fixed Trade bug:
  • Sometimes, when trying to trade an ironman/classic and not being able to, if you opened the equipment interface after and equipped an item, you would potentially lose that item permanently. This has been patched.
• ::appeal command added:
  • Takes you directly to the appeals section on the forum.
• Easter/April fools events removed:
  • The Easter bunny NPCs and the full event have been removed, as well as the fake Partyhat drops and the Corporeal beast Elysian dust.
• Abyssal sire fix:
  • Sometimes the loot dropped under Abyssal sire would be on a tile that could not be looted. This has been fixed, and the loot should always appear on a lootable tile.
• Herblore secondary spawns:
  • Spawns such as Snape grass, whiteberries, etc. will now respawn at a much faster rate. The previous rate of 30-45 seconds for respawn has been changed to 10-15 seconds.
  • Zamorak wine updates:
    • All Wine of Zamorak drops will now be noted, including drops from the following NPCs:
      • Chaos Fanatic, Cerberus, Kalphite Queen, Greater Nechryael, Balfrug Kreeyath, Zakl’n Gritch, and Tstanon Karlak.
