Hello everyone,

Today we bring a massive update with plenty of long-awaited bug fixes and QOL updates! We've added the latest OSRS Nightmare loot system buff which should make every run a bit more profitable, and we added Phoenix recolours as well as firelighters to make your pets and firemaking more colourful. An extensive list of updates can be found below.

Also, we have a major announcement coming in the next few days. We're super excited about what we have to share with you, so keep an eye out for that announcement!

Nonetheless, enjoy the following updates :)

• Bug fixes:
  • Fixed a bug where the magic experience would be calculated before altering damage to NPC’s.
  • Fixed a bug that was causing superior slayer encounters to occur a lot more commonly than they should have been.
    • This bug has been fixed, so players should expect to see fewer encounters now.
  • Moved the unreachable rune ore in the Donator Zone to an accessible location.
  • Fixed a bug where players could enter an instance from a different location.
    • For example, entering a Dagannoth kings instance from the GWD door.
  • Fixed a bug where players could fletch arrows while firemaking.
  • Fixed a bug where players could fletch and woodcut at the same time.
  • Altered Superior encounter imbued heart drop rates to be 2x what they are on OSRS, since our rates were not accurate.

  • Item overlays will no longer be drawn over interfaces.
  • Fixed a bug where lizardman shamans would sometimes be able to attack players through walls.

  • Fixed a bug where players could see the "talk-to" and "pick-up" options on the Sraracha pet.
  • Fixed a bug with combo runes sometimes uses more than necessary.
    • For example, if a spell like entangle required 5 water runes and 5 earth runes, and you used 5 mud runes to cast the spell, it would consume 10 mud runes, when it should have only consumed 5.
  • Fixed a bug where the pickaxe requirements were checking your woodcutting level instead of your mining level.
  • Fixed a bug where players could sometimes transfer a transferrable item, and not receive it if they recently filled all the slots in their inventory.

  • Lighting normal logs will now grant 40 base experience as opposed to 30.

  • Fixed a bug where the magic book would not show unlimited runes for the following items:
    • Kodai wand

  • Fixed a bug where depositing your equipment into your bank would cause the game to think you were still autocasting if you had an autocast staff equipped.
  • Fixed a bug where storing the Green D'hide (t) set in your treasure chest would require a "Terrorbird wing" instead of Green d'hide chaps(t).

  • Fixed a bug where Konar wouldn’t mention the location of the task monster to the partner of the player who got the task.
  • Dagon'hai robes now require 40 Defence and 70 Magic to equip (Previously 20 and 40, respectively).
  • Bounty hunter target system fix:
    • Previously, a bug allowed multiple people to have the same target. This was a big bug for PVPers as it allowed PJing from multiple angles. This has now been fixed.
• Quality of Life:
  • Slightly shifted the “Gamer” npc’s location in ::gamble so that he won’t stand in front of the bank chest.
  • Added the server Month/day to the server statistics time in the quest tab.

    • This means that the Pickpocket option is now the default left-click action.

  • Reduced the number of slayer tower tasks from Konar required for the Morytania medium diaries from 15 to 10.
  • Changed the Konar waterbirth Dagannoth task achievement to just be a Konar Dagannoth task in any of the possible locations.
  • Changed the Konar Brimhaven black demon task achievement to just be a Konar black demon task in any of the possible locations.
  • Dagannoths in the Catacombs of Kourend will not only attack with melee.
  • Removing item overlays will now take priority over interaction.
    • This means that trying to remove an item from your ground item overlays while holding control will no longer accidentally cause you to interact with an npc/object, or pick up an item.
  • The key to blacklist ground item overlays has been changed to control instead of shift, so as not to conflict with the shift-drop option.
  • Increased the experience from high alchemy to 65 base experience instead of 60 to match OSRS.
  • The seers village agility course now has the same base experience rates as OSRS.
  • Wearing the god item that protects from a specific type of npc(for example, Armadyl coif will allow Armadyl npc’s to be non-aggressive) now works properly.
  • Wearing a Saradomin or Zamorak item will now cause bandits to be aggressive, otherwise they will not engage.
  • Added the Quest cape teleport to the Legend’s Guild.
  • Added the Music cape teleport to Falo the Bard.
  • Hespori’s flowers will now be one-shot any time they are hit.
  • Fletching Broad bolts can now be done with unfinished broad bolts and feathers.
    • Previously, this was done by adding broad arrowheads to unfinished broad bolts.
      • This has a few important implications:
        • Players will no longer be able to spam arrowheads onto unfinished broad bolts for absurd amounts of fletching experience.
          • This was a hugely broken aspect of fletching on Alora, and will no longer be a viable training method.
        • Fletching broad bolts will now overall be cheaper, as players won’t have to purchase broad arrowheads, but instead can use feathers.
  • Made the NPC drop table and drop searcher drop rates consistent
    • Previously one was using the player based drop rates(calculating rates with player bonuses) and the other one wasn't
      • Both interfaces now use the player's drop rate as opposed to the standard one
  • Improved safeguards for event deaths, so no players who die at events(even if they die the tick after they leave) should lose their items or HCIM status.
  • Added the ::morgen command which re-directs players to Morgen's channel.
  • Added the ::uimagility command which re-directs players to UIM Agility’s channel.
  • Ironman group joining warning:
    • Before joining a new Ironman group, you will be presented with a warning that tells you how many more transfers you have until your account is locked.
      • As of the last update to this mechanic, an Ironman can join a group 5 times over the lifetime of their account. On the last join, an all-caps warning will tell them that they can not transfer groups after this one. Otherwise, it will tell them that the decision is permanent after X more transfers.
• Agility changes:
  • We’ve made some changes to the marks of grace system to more closely match OSRS.
    • Mark of grace spawn:
      • Instead of having a chance to automatically get marks of grace when completing a course, they will now be spawned on the course, similar to in OSRS, with similar rates.
        • Each time a mark of grace is spawned, it will last for 10 minutes before it de-spawns.
          • If a player gets another mark while doing the course, it will reset the timer to 10 minutes and stack the marks, so players do not need to continuously pick up the marks.
    • Graceful shop changes:
      • The price of graceful equipment/amylase crystals have been reduced to match OSRS.
        • Players can also now sell back their amylase crystal packs or graceful equipment at a discounted rate.
• Clue scroll changes:
  • Firelighters have been added as a possible reward to all clues. (Easy to Elite)
• Firelighters:
  • Firelighters can now be added to logs!
    • Obtained through completion of any clue scroll, the following colors can be added to normal logs:
      • Red
      • Green
      • Blue
      • White
      • Purple
    • Notes:
      • Lighting these logs grants 10xp more than regular logs, for 50 total experience.
      • Aside from using them to ignite colourful fires, you can also use firelighters to change the color of your phoenix pet.
• Phoenix pet updates:
  • Recolors:
    • You can now recolour your Phoenix pet to one of the following options, using firelighters:
      • Green (250 Green firelighters)
      • White (250 White firelighters)
      • Purple (250 Purple firelighters)
      • Blue (250 Blue firelighters)
    • Using 250 Red firelighters will turn your pet back into the default Phoenix.
    • Please note this is not an unlock and will require you to use 250 firelighters on the Phoenix pet each time you want to recolour it.
  • Dialogues:
    • Numerous dialogues have been added for interacting with Phoenix pets (previously, there were no dialogues at all).
• Spear changes:
  • Fixed a bug that was causing Spears/Hastas to provide the wrong experience.
    • NOTE: This means that most spears/hastas that have “Controlled” as the attack style will now provide attack, strength, and defence experience, whereas previous they did not.
  • Fixed the crush and slash animations most spears including:
    • Vesta’s spear
    • Leaf-bladed spear
    • Zamorakian spear
    • Gilded spear
    • Gilded Hasta
    • Dragon Hasta
    • Zamorakian hasta
• Falador rooftop agility added:
  • The Falador rooftop agility course has been added to Alora.
    • This course requires level 50 Agility to do, and each lap of the course provides a total of 440 base agility experience.
      • Players have a chance to earn 1-2 marks of grace for each lap of the course completed.
• Cooking changes:
  • Cooking fish now more or less follows the table below, with the exception of differentiating between fire/range cooking, which has not been implemented yet:
    • https://oldschoolrunescape.fandom.com/wiki/Cooking/Burn_level
      • This means that the Hosidius kitchen and cooking gauntlets paired will now offer the lowest level threshold to cook food successfully without a chance to burn it.
• Preserve prayer changes:
  • Fixed a bug where the preserve prayer would allow players to keep boosted stats indefinitely.
  • The preserve prayer has been buffed to allow boosted stats to last 50% longer(as opposed to 20% that it previously was).
  • Preserve will now work immediately when it is considered to be active.
    • Previously, it would only work after a few minutes of being active.
      • As of now, preserve needs to be active until it drains at least 1 prayer point(18 seconds by default, however this may be slightly more depending on your prayer bonus).
        • Once the prayer point has been drained, prayers are eligible for the effects of preserve.
• Trident changes:
  • The equipment interface of the trident has been updated to the proper one.
    • This means the following things:
      • Players can no longer staff bash with tridents.
      • Players no longer require 75 magic to actually use the spell, just to equip the staff.
      • Players can no longer auto-cast spells with tridents.
      • Note: The................
• PvP changes:
  • Made the experience drops for Multi-target magic spells appear 1 tick faster to more accurately match OSRS.
  • Players who have their combat experience locked will now see the base experience drops when fighting other players.
  • The Basilisk Jaw will now drop on death instead of the Helm of Neitiznot.
  • The Completionist Monkey stats will now be reduced to those of the regular Max Cape to keep PvP more balanced for regular players.
  • Made the serpentine helm show player facial hair.
  • Drag timer interface setting:
    • Players can now go to the client interface settings tab and manually set their drag timer.
      • This is effectively the same as doing ::drag X, but this will be easier for most players to know about/access.
        • This also means that the drag timer will save when players logout, so they won’t have to set it again.
    • The default drag timer for all players has been reset to 5 milliseconds.
• Slayer changes:
  • Konar now has a chance to assign boss tasks to players who have the Like a boss perk unlocked.
  • Players can now attack their superior encounters with priority over other npc's.
  • Slayer Extensions:
    • We’ve introduced slayer extensions to Nieve’s slayer reward shop:
      • All the extensions are properly functioning, with the exception of the Scabarites extension which will be added in the future when the Scabarite task is added.
        • The comprehensive list of extensions can be found here:
          • https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Slayer_reward_point
  • Slayer Unlocks:
    • We’ve introduced the slayer perk unlocks to Nieve’s slayer reward shop:
      • All the perks are unlock-able and functioning properly.
        • The comprehensive list of perks can be found here:
          • https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Slayer_reward_point
  • Slayer shop changes:
    • All prices in the slayer exchange shop have been divided by 4.
      • This also means players slayer points have been divided by 4.
    • Players generally won’t notice a difference, since both their points and the shop prices were reduced by a factor of 4x, so this change is only a complementary to scale to the new point system.
  • Slayer streaks will no longer reset from blocking/cancelling tasks.
  • New point system:
    • We’ve re-written the slayer points system to be more similar to OSRS.
      • This new system will provide a default amount of slayer points based on the type of task you do.
        • Even though most unlocks/perks will be useful for hard slayer tasks, Hard/Easy/Medium tasks all provide the same amount of points to allow newer players to build a stronger point foundation early on. 
        • Players will also receive large bonuses for completing every 10, 25, 50, 100 and 250 tasks.
        • All points received are eligible for bonuses.
          • Slayer point boost changes:
            • The slayer point vote bonus has been reduced to 15% as opposed to 25%.
            • The slayer point boost for the Morytania diaries has been increased to the following:
              • Easy diaries: 5% boost
              • Medium diaries: 7.5% boost
              • Hard diaries: 10% boost
              • Elite diaries: 15% boost
          • Point boosts:
            • 15% vote bonus
            • 0-50% bonus slayer points for events
            • 0-15% bonus for Morytania diaries
            • 10% bonus points for Konar tasks from the hard Kourend diaries
          • The slayer point boosts are additive, meaning that the max boost(with all boosts applying) would be a 1.9x boost multiplier.
  • Extreme tasks are no longer a category of their own.
    • They have been given a weight as a hard task, and if that task is chosen, players will be able receive a random boss task.
  • Gargoyles now require a rock hammer to kill.
    • Once the gargoyle has reached 9 hit points or less, players can use their rock hammers to smash the gargoyles.
  • Rock slugs now require a bag of salt to kill.
    • Once the Rockslug has 5 hit points or less, players can use their bag of salt on the Rockslug to kill it. 
  • Removal of free slayer task skipping:
    • We’ve made the decision to remove the free task skips for super donator+ ranks.
      • Immortal donators will however retain a portion of this perk, and will only have to pay half the cancellation costs for slayer tasks.
      • This decision was made due to the fact that having unlimited skips essentially defeats the purpose of the skill, since most players ended up skipping tasks repeatedly until they got the ones they wanted.
        • This is a necessary change, since we want to move forward with slayer expansion, and add task extensions, and a new point distribution system more focused on actually doing the tasks assigned.
  • We’ve implemented changes to the slayer task selection system, and made it a weight-based system, more similar to OSRS.
    • Each task is associated with a weight, and the higher the weight, the more likely you are to get that task.
      • For more details, see the old school wiki page:
        • https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Slayer_task
  • Task changes:
    • Added Ancient wyvern cave wyverns as a Konar hard task.

Let's be honest, virus or not, all us gamers always quarantined at home anyways.

 

Wouldn't mind some longer bxp though.

The concept of this topic was made in collaboration with the amazing Hassia

 

Greetings there player of

Before you scroll down

Take a moment to mentally prepare yourself

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pre-grind prep

 

You can't stay on Your grind if You don't put You first

 

 

 

Eat healthy

 

A healthy diet requires a variety of food.

In a shocking survey, the majority of Alora players admitted to eating nothing but fish!

 

Stop eating this

 

Start eating this

 

No more supplements

 

And for the love of god

No more doping

 

 

 

 

Exercise

 

With the diet down, you're ready to take on the world with new-found energy

The Alora staff team has recommended at least 10 minutes of Puro~Puro or 10 laps of Agility per day.

 

Long term bank standing is one of the most common causes of back pain and sore feet in Alora

If you recognize these symptoms, it's about time you changed your lifestyle!

 

 

 

Here's something that will really whip  you into shape

                                            

An exclusive sneak peek on the upcoming update of the "Daily Task" system
 

Warning: the Saitama daily tasks may cause baldness (doesn't apply to Lowkey)

 

 

 

 

Sleep

 

Even though the grind is the goal, you will lose efficiency if you're too tired

Ignore the people saying "REEEE, Sleep is XP-waste" and grab your sleeping cap!

 

 

 

The quality of your sleep can tell if you've been grinding too hard

-

if you find yourself shifting in and out of slumber

suddenly waking up, bathed in sweat

as you fall to your final doom

GRINDMARES

Take a break from your grind bro

 

 

 

 

                                              

Mind and soul
With your body in peak condition we move on to the inside

                                                                    

 

 

Mental health

 

In a busy world where everyone is constantly grinding, it's imperative to take breaks!

The world of Alora has plenty of awe inspiring places to visit

 

 

 

Falador park

 

 

 

 

Priffdinas

 

 

 

 

Enchanted valley

 

 

 

 

Entertainment

 

Repeating the same thing over and over can be frustrating and boring!

Distract yourself with some entertainment

 

Some players use Netflix, YouTube, Facebook etc.

None of these compares to the in-game provided entertainment!

 

 

 

Simply strike up conversation with other players!
there's a 50% chance you're talking to a window licker, otherwise it's probably you

 

You can ask which clan is #1 for some free drama
or tune in to the daily PvP raging in ;;yell

 

 

 

Here's a few examples of what to expect from player interactions

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Love

 

In order to have a healthy mentality, love is a must

If you don't feel loved, you might lose your will to live, or even worse - your will to grind

 

The easiest way of feeling loved, is buying a gf.

The most common offer lies around 10gp, but some filthy gold-diggers demand more

 

 

 

If you can't find a gf, feel free to use these images to let off some steam.

 

I wont judge you

I lied, you're disgusting

 

 

 

Stay safe

 

Now that you're taking on the Alora hoes, remember to stay safe.

Wrap it up kings! 

 

In recent times, you can't feel safe anywhere!

The world has turned into the wilderness and you're playing as a Hardcore Ironman

 

 

 

@ @ @ @ @   BREAKING NEWS   @ @ @ @ @

Omicron & Lowkey locks down ;;dz due to Corona outbreak

 

As the feared COVID-19 wreaks havoc upon Alora, players are encouraged to stay in their homes

Event managers cancels events and Edgeville bank is emptier than the wilderness

 

Some visionary merchants took advantage of the panic

Their hoarding of face masks and prayer scrolls aka. toilet paper has secured them great profit

 

 

Steer clear of contaminated areas, keep your face mask  on, and stick to your grind!

 

 

 

 

 

Starting the grind

 

We've figured out how to maintain our physical and mental well-being.

Now we move on to the grind itself

 

 

 

Setting a goal

 

The first thing you need is an objective

This goal will become your beacon, lighting up the path towards success

 

As for what goal to set, follow your heart 

 

 

In a situation where you've set your goal, but the gods of RNG plot against you

You may end up having the entirety of Alora treat your grind like a meme.

 

This is the greatest honour achievable.

 

So don't be humble when you set your goal

What do YOU want?

 

 

 

Stay on track

 

With an objective set, you're ready to embark on your grind!

Gear up, turn up for your favourite music, and have your mom on bathroom QRF

 

 

 

In order to separate the wheat from the chaff, staff has laid out vicious traps

They will constantly try to bait you off track!

 

 

Keep your eyes on the prize!

Some grinds may take a very long time

Dedication is Major Key  Alert

The tougher the grind - The more accomplishment you feel

 

 

 

Share your grind

 

Sometimes your mind will drift.

Why am I here?

What am I doing with my life?

These are but meaningless pixels

This is waste of time and money!

 

There's a way to add meaning to your existence and value to your time

Share your experiences with your friends

 

This may be the greatest source of motivation

 

You could join one of the major clans such as ICE, Dynasty or Phereus.

These clans often has chats where you can share your grind, or just make friends in general
People may encourage you and/or share their own experiences

 

If you followed my awful advice earlier in this post about striking up conversation with random people

you may end up meeting like-minded people

 

These can very well become the reason you continue playing

Huge shout-out to my boys Fe hash | Hassia | GIMP Jesus | TheTempzz

Yeah that's the entirety of my friends list

Please be my friend

^{Disclaimer: This may not be my actual friend list}

 

If you have friends in real life (this is very unlikely) I encourage you to invite them to play Alora

They will undoubtedly respect you for your very impressive in-game play time

 

 

 

Flex your achievements

 

One of the reasons sharing your progress is motivating, is because it yields recognition

Apart from the encouragement from friends, there are also permanent distinctions

 

One such distinction is the Forum Award.

Here's an example of an achieved player's (KP) Awards

 

You should definitely check the awards out!
They also make great goals to grind for such as

 

Maxing out every account type

get a life dude

 

There are also less time consuming ones:

 

 

Donator ranks also counts as a goal which requires grinding

Amass money and acquire bonds that will fund your next rank

 

Your improved rank will then yield greater benefits which makes the future grinds easier

The most lucrative donator ranks     may require months of grinding or easy access to moms credit card

Read more about donator perks and support the server here

 

 

 

 

 

You've made it all the way to

THE END

 

I hope you enjoyed it

Please hit  if you did  

 

 

Good luck on your grind

Thanks for reading

 

What is your suggestion?:

Make the Rune pouch recognize combination runes as runes

      

Click on the icons above ^ to read more about the pouch or the runes

 

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

No

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

This is as much a bug report as it is a suggestion, since combination runes are obviously runes

If you attempt to add combination runes to a Rune pouch this message will appear:

 

This would benefit all the players of Alora who owns a rune pouch

It's especially useful for PKers, PvMers and  Ultiamte Ironmen.

The Nightmare of Ashihama

 

I. Information
The Nightmare of Ashihama, often simply referred to as The Nightmare, is a large, otherworldly horror who feeds on the life force of sleeping people, giving her victims horrible nightmares until their life force is completely drained and expires.

 

Players can also fight Phosani's Nightmare, a much stronger version of the boss that can only be fought solo. Players must have at least 1 kill count at The Nightmare before they can fight Phosani's. More at Phosani's Nightmare can be found at the bottom of the guide. 

50 combat is the only requirement to fight The Nightmare, however, higher stats and gear are recommended. 1 to 80 players can join to fight The Nightmare at a time, her stats and hitpoints scaling to the number of players in the room.

 

Once the fight has begun, no more players are able to enter the room until she has been defeated. All players that meet the minimum damage threshold will be eligible to receive loot but the player that deals the most damage (MVP) will receive a significant boost to their reward. The MVP is signified by receiving Big bones with their drop.

This fight is a dangerous death for hardcore ironmen. Dying here will result in losing hardcore status.

If a player dies during the fight, lost items will be kept by Shura. They can be reclaimed from Shura for a fee of 250,000 GP. Shura can be found near the entrance to the Nightmare's Dream Realm.

 

Note that if a player dies a second time anywhere without reclaiming their items from Shura anything she was holding will be permanently lost. (This excludes safe minigames such as the Fight Caves, Inferno, etc.) 

II. Combat Info and Stats
Combat Level: 814
Max Hit: 60 (Melee), 39 (Ranged and Magic)
Weakness: Crush
Attack Style(s): Magic, Melee (slash), Ranged
Attack Speed: 6 ticks (3.6 seconds)

IV. Getting There

V. Fight Mechanics

Spoiler

The Nightmare uses all three combat styles and has several special attack mechanics. Game sounds will be a very helpful indicator of the incoming attack, but they are also quite visually distinguishable.

Standard Attacks

 

Standard Magic Attack
The Nightmare will flair flail her arms and surround herself with pink flower petals that are shot towards the players. Having Protect from Magic up will mitigate damage.

Standard Ranged Attack
The Nightmare will contort herself around 4 times giving off the sound a loud click to sound like bones cracking and snapping. Having Protect from Missiles up will mitigate damage.

Standard Melee Attack
The Nightmare will charge her claws with a pink glow and pull them back scraping the ground in front of her.

Special Attacks

 

Husks
The Nightmare will spawn two Lvl. 48 Husks around random players in the room. Targeted players will be frozen in place until the Husks are killed. They use melee attacks and are weak to magic.

Flower Power
The Nightmare will divide the room into 4 quadrants with lines of flowers. One quadrant will be safe and is indicated by the lighter, alive-looking Nightmare Flowers. Standing in one of the other 3 unsafe quadrants will result taking rapid damage and any attacks done to The Nightmare will heal her.

Grasping Claws
The Nightmare will spawn a black portal beneath her and numerous small black portals around the room and then stick her claws inside dealing damage to any player standing on one of the black portals throughout the room. Standing on a portal and being hit by the claws can deal up to 50 damage. To avoid damage, simply move to a free tile with no portal.

Sleepwalkers
After each pillar phase, The Nightmare will spawn sleepwalkers. The number spawn will depend on the number of players in the room. They possess 10 HP and will begin moving towards her once spawned. You will want to defeat as many sleepwalkers as possible before they reach her because at the end of the attack, she will release a powerful blast that hits every player in the room for a minimum of 5 damage that is amplified by the number of sleepwalkers she absorbs.

Curse
A pink/red glow fills the player's screen and protection prayers are shuffled. Clicking on Protect from Magic activates Protect from Missiles, Protect from Missiles activates Protect from Melee and Protect from Melee activates Protect from Magic. An easy way to remember this is the Prayers are shifted over by one to the right. This change will remain until a message pops up in the chat box saying the curse has finished.

Parasites
The Nightmare throws a parasite onto random players. After it has grown, it will burst out of the player damaging the player and healing The Nightmare until it is killed. Drinking a dose of Sanfew Serum before it emerges will weaken the parasite. Once the parasite has exited the player(s), make sure to kill the parasites as soon as possible. Failure to drink a Sanfew Serum while impregnated by the parasite will result in taking high damage.

Spores
Mushroom like spores will spawn around the room. Standing next to one will cause it to explode, disabling the player's run and lowering their attack speed by 1 tick for a short duration.

Totems

The boss room contains four totems, one in each corner. At the start of the fight, the Nightmare is protected by a shield which weakens as she takes damage. The HP of this shield scales accordingly to the number of players participating in the fight, with a minimum of 2,000 and maximum of 19,600.
Once the shield is shattered, the totems in the corners of the rooms may be attacked. All four totems must be fully charged. Once they're charged, they will unleash a magical blast of energy onto the Nightmare, dealing 800 damage. The Nightmare has 2,400 HP, so they must be fully charged three times to defeat The Nightmare.
*Note: The totems cannot be leached off of with blood spells.

Example Kills:

Hello everyone,

 

As you've probably already noticed, our website has been completely redesigned! We felt that it was time for a change, and although our old theme certainly served its purpose, we've outgrown it and feel that the new one represents Alora's game and community more appropriately. We made sure to use some warmer colors, especially on the forum, so that the pages are a bit easier on the eyes. The new homepage is also mobile-ready, making it far easier to navigate on your phone or tablet.

 

There are too many changes to list, but we've made sure to keep the important elements the same as before. Forum functionality has not changed, and the other pages should be just as easy to navigate as before. With that being said, there may be some bugs as with any new update, so please let us know if you run into any.

 

We will slowly also be updating to use our new logo in certain areas (Discord, game client, etc) in the near future.

 

Big thanks to @Slyther, the talented designer who I've worked with the past few weeks to bring this design to life. He also designed our first website, and has come a long way since then.

 

We hope you guys are pleased with the new design, and we'd love to hear your feedback on it!

 

Best Regards,

Omicron

hello all! just a quick intro to myself.. my name's Jamie irl and i am 27 years old from the UK.. i'll be playing as a skiller and training no combat what so ever and no slayer on Realism mode. I've played both normal and ironman on here over the years and legit i think this server has the best quality to offer in terms of rsps! it's been a while since I've played here so i'm looking forward to knuckling down on this new hard mode  

 

my in game goals will be to train whatever i'm feeling at the time but also as many 99's over time as i can get as i'll have quite a chunk of free time to play whilst also dabbling on BLOPS4 now and then

 

these seem tempting!

First player to reach level 99 in a non-combat skill: Reward - 750 Tokens

First Player to get a Squirrel / Tangleroot / House / Rocky pet: Reward - 800 Tokens

 

nice to meet you all and good luck on your goals and that! peace.

I’ve seen you around before, nice to read an intro from you. Welcome!

Always nice to see an OG around, they always got the best experience with the server.

 

I've def seen you around, so i'm sure i'll continue to!

 

Hope you have a great day yourself fam!

:)
