Hello everyone,
 
We are proud to announce that this Christmas brings back our 3rd iteration of the Christmas Giveaway event! The idea behind this event is simple: Buy tickets to the drawing with in-game GP and have a chance to win great IRL prizes, including a PS4 Slim 1TB Console Bundle, Apple AirPods & a Redragon S101 Gaming Keyboard & Mouse! On top of this, we're also giving away Alora hoodies to another 5 winners.
 
For those of you interested in a hoodie, we've also taken our Merch shop live for a limited time, and you'll be able to customize & purchase your own merch during this Holiday season!
 
If you head over to Varrock, you'll find that Santa ran into some trouble and needs your help this Christmas! You can find him in Varrock square surrounded by protesting children, and if you help him he certainly will be more generous with this year's gifts.
 
We've also launched our Christmas sale, with many limited-time items and a hefty 30% token bonus on all purchases!
 
Lastly, we've included a number of content updates, bug fixes and QoL that you can check out below.
 
We hope you enjoy this update!
 

• Christmas giveaway:
  • To show our gratitude for a wonderful 3 years of continued support that we've received from the community, we'd like to get everyone into the Holiday spirit by hosting another giveaway with IRL prizes this Christmas!
    • You can enter in-game by purchasing tickets from Haris at home (leaning on Well of Goodwill).
      • Tickets cost 20m GP each, and each player (or household if multiple people play from your house) can only have 40 tickets at most. This is very important, if your name is drawn and we find that you’ve purchased more than 40 tickets on multiple accounts you will be disqualified. 
      • The drawing will be on January 1st, 2019 at 09:00 EST.
      • Prizes are unlocked as everyone collectively hits milestones.
    • Prizes:
      • Guaranteed prizes: 5 different Alora hoodies will be given out! You'll be able to pick the color/style of the hoodie.
      • 5b milestone: Redragon S101 Gaming Keyboard & Mouse
      • 10b milestone: Apple AirPods
      • 25b milestone: PS4 1TB Slim Console Bundle
  • FAQ:
    • How many people will win?
      • Assuming the full 25b gets donated, there are 8 prizes for 8 players. 3 top prizes listed above, and then the 5 hoodies.
    • Can the same person win multiple items?
      • To make it fair for everyone, if the drawing lands on the same person twice, there will be a re-roll. To make this fair, the top 3 prizes will be drawn first, and then the hoodies drawn afterwards.
    • Can anyone enter?
      • Yes, anyone can enter, including staff.
    • If it reaches 25b for the PS4 Console, can the other prizes still be won?
      • Yes, if the 25b is reached, all 3 prizes are rewarded, as well as the 5 sweaters. If only 10b is reached, the first two prizes and the sweaters will be rewarded.
    • What if I win but do not want the prize?
      • You can also take 1.5x the amount in Alora tokens, or cash equivalent to the value of the prize (via PayPal).
    • I have a sibling who also plays, can we each enter 40 times?
      • Unfortunately, there is a cap on the number of tickets and it is set at 40 per household. This is to ensure everyone gets a fair chance and that nobody is cheating. We will be looking into the winners to make sure that they fairly purchased their tickets.
    • How will the winner be picked?
      • A random number will be picked, which will correlate to an entry on a list of names. Your name will appear on the list as many times as you’ve purchased tickets, meaning the more tickets you purchase the more likely it is to land on your name.

 
Store updates:

• The Christmas Sale is now live! It will run until January 1st, offering a hefty 30% bonus applied to any token purchase!

  • Christmas cracker:
    • Christmas crackers are back again after a 2 year hiatus on Alora!

        • Rainbow partyhat (2% chance)
        • Black partyhat (8% chance)

• Donator transfer changes:
  • We’ve heard feedback from the community, and we have decided to allow another transfer for Uber donator+ accounts.
    • This means that Uber+ ranks will be allowed 2 donator status transfers instead of 1.

• Alora Merch:
  • For a limited time, you can pick yourself up some Alora merchandise this holiday season!
    • There are numerous options to choose from (sweaters, t-shirts, long-sleeves and hoodies) and many different colors. You'll also have the choice of the logo being on the front only, or front & back.
    • Check out the selection at https://www.alora.io/merch

    • As always, Santa needs you to help save Christmas this year!
      • Santa's mischievous son, Jack Frost, has been causing quite the ruckus in the Christmas bakery. With the help of Anti-Santa, you'll have to get to the bottom of things and make sure the bakery resumes operation!
        • By doing so, you'll be given a glorious Gingerbread gnome shield which has the ability to swap between 3 colours.

    • 5-10% of these implings will be either dragon or lucky implings
    • Once an impling is caught, a new impling will appear in a different part of the world after a short delay.
    • Implings will spawn on either Zeah or the mainland/karamja.
    • Implings that are not caught after a given period of time will re-spawn in a new location.

  • Players can now make nettle tea:
    • To do so, players must pick nettles off the ground(can be found in various places around the game, including Edgeville).
      • Picking nettles without gloves will do 1-2 damage, so be sure to wear gloves!
    • Adding the nettles to a bowl of water will create nettle-water, which can be consumed for 1 hp.
      • It can also be heated on a cooking source to create nettle-tea, which provides 3 hp, and 52 base cooking experience, requiring 20 cooking.
  • Stews can now be made:
    • To make a stew, simply use a potato on a bowl of water, and then add cooked chicken or cooked meat to the incomplete stew.
      • One that’s done, head the uncooked stew on a cooking source, and you will receive 117 base cooking experience.
        • Cooking stews requires a cooking level of 25, and players stop burning them at 58 cooking.

 

 
 
Happy Holidays!
Omicron, Chad & The Alora Staff Team

Hello everyone,

As we wrap up 2019, we'd like to give you some more insight on what we've got planned for the next little while. These planned updates are tentative and won't follow any sort of schedule, and if OSRS releases some content in between we will likely shift our focus to that before turning our attention back to these updates. Nonetheless, here are a few of the updates we are currently working on and/or have planned:

• Achievement diaries:
  • We've completely scrapped the current Achievement system and store and have opted to a brand new Achievement diary based on the suggestions submitted by @Mack. This is the first priority in this development blog as we've already made extensive progress on it. You can see the details here:
    • https://www.alora.io...t-diary-rework/
• Last Man Standing overhaul:
  • As many of you know, Last Man Standing has been non-functional for awhile. We are working to make the necessary changes to match OSRS's updated version of LMS, which essentially gives you gear to start with upon entering. It also includes a brand new reward shop with some great items that will hopefully make the mini-game more popular (see below).
• Chambers of Xeric rework:
  • As the first server to have released CoX way back in 2017, we admittedly have cut some corners in the functionality of the raid for the sake of releasing it in the RSPS world as quickly as possible. Since then, aside from bug fixes, we have not made many advancements to match CoX to OSRS's version. We will be focusing our attention on making the raid more dynamic as it is on OSRS, with the map layout being randomly generated each raid to make it more interesting.
  • This will take considerable time as it is essentially redoing the raid from the ground up, but we believe that it is a piece of end-game content which many will appreciate the extra effort being put into.

One of our goals for 2020 is to provide you with previews of future updates more often to allow you to get a general sense of what's to come, so we hope you'll enjoy that :)

Regards,

Omicron & Chad

Hotfixes [12/1/20]

• Bugs fixed:
  • Achievements:
    • Auto-completing achievements now work properly for the following:
      • Complete Dragon slayer II
      • Purchase Fancy stone for house
      • Purchase house
      • Complete the Inferno
      • (Ironman only) Stake 50m
    • The achievement which required you to make a Rune crossbow in Yanille bank was working in other areas and has been fixed to only work in Yanille.
    • The Brimhaven mine 30 gold ore achievement now works at the north mine as well.
    • Ava's accumulator achievement will now auto-complete if you have it already (or the assembler).
    • Ironmen can now access the Achievement shop.
  • Entering a raid (CoX/ToB) said it required 1100 total level but would not work until you reached 1101 total level. This has been fixed.
• Monkey removal:
  • Monkeys that are equipped will now be unequipped on login unless you have all achievements completed.

Hello everyone,

We're extremely excited to announce that the new Achievement diaries are now live! As our first update of 2020, we made sure to make it worthwhile. Hop right in and start checking off the task lists on your diaries to enjoy the new rewards. There's a boatload of new perks and rewards to enjoy, so have a look below before you decide which diaries to tackle first.

We've also expanded the Costume room with Magic wardrobes and Armour cases, giving our UIM (and seasoned players) further storage convenience.

Aside from that, we've fixed some persistent bugs and added some QoL updates that we're sure will improve your gameplay.

We'll let you have a look for yourself:

• Achievements:
  • Achievement Diaries:
    • We've entirely removed our old achievement system and replaced it with one more similar to OSRS's Achievement Diaries, which contains region-based tasks.
      • Of course, we've adapted the tasks to better fit Alora, as some simply wouldn't be applicable.
      • There are 12 different regions, and each region contains 4 types of tasks (easy, medium, hard and elite) which each have their own rewards upon successful completion:
