INTRODUCTION

The first time I discovered Runescape was back in 2008. A neighborhood friend introduced me to the website/game. I remember being in elementary and entering the world of Gielinor for the first time. It was like love at first sight. An instant connection was made and the rabbit hole continued to expand as I grew older. Fifteen years later and this game still draws me back.

Being older now with limited time due to work, I am looking to relive my Runescape experience through Alora (quicker rates). I heard nothing but great things about it's staff and community and chose to give it a shot. It has been about a month since I started Alora (10/20/2023) and have kept up consistently since then. My experience thus far has been phenomenal. 

I am looking forward to meeting as many of you as I possibly can! Shoutout to the staff and development team that have made my experience so far an enjoyable one. 

What is your suggestion?: add scaly dragonhides to blue dragon drops

Is this in OSRS?: yes

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: no

How would this benefit Alora?: easier to get blue scales as an ironman for antifire pots etc

Hello everyone,
 
Today's update is mostly focused on launching the Mobile-locked Ironman tournament, which is now live! There are many different prizes to be won, in many different areas of the game to balance out the prize winners, so make sure to check them out in the infographic below. You won't want to miss out!
 
We've also released a mobile client update to go along with the tournament release, as well as a few bug fixes & QoL on the server side:

• Mobile Client Changes:
  • QoL:
    • The “Mem” indicator will no longer draw below the FPS indicator if it is not supported (0Mb).
    • Increased the outer zoom limit on landscape/portrait mode.
    • FPS Improvements:
      • We've made some FPS improvements in general that should apply to all devices. We will continue to make improvements where we can, as well as bug fixes.
  • Bug fixes:
    • Fixed a bug where the combat tab would show “-2” as the current weapon after opening an interface.
    • Fixed a bug where some textured tiles (water at motherlode mine, for example) looked buggy.
    • Fixed a bug where some interfaces were transparent/wouldn’t load properly.
    • Fixed a bug where the screen fade interface would not cover the entire screen in some cases.
    • Fixed a bug where some interfaces would cause the UI to disappear (for example the trading post, and Wintertodt).
    • Fixed an issue with vibrations when dragging an inventory item (android only).
    • Removed the small gap between the chatstones/chatbox on landscape mode when the chatbox was not transparent.
    • Fixed a bug where players could not change the settings in the xp settings interface on mobile.
    • Fixed a bug where using high/low alchemy wouldn’t properly change to the player’s inventory when selected.
    • Fixed a memory leak on iOS which would cause the app to eventually crash (white screen followed by a reset of the app).
    • Note: For any players who were experiencing crashes on early versions of iOS 17 after locking their phone with the client open, this should no longer be an issue on the latest version of iOS (17.1 or higher), so make sure to update to the latest version if this is an issue you’re experiencing.

• Server Changes:
  • Bug Fixes:
    • Players’ boosted stats/hp will no longer be reset when entering the inferno/fight caves.

    • Fixed a bug where the last logged in time was not properly shown on the welcome screen.
    • Zulrah teleport option has been restored.
  • Quality of Life:
    • Players can now access the visual ticks plugin through the plugin-hub.
    • The mark of darkness cooldown has been added to the Timers plugin.

Recommendations:

• iOS:
  • If you are open to upgrading to iOS 17.2 Beta, Alora gives about 25% better FPS on this version.
  • For any players who were experiencing crashes on early versions of iOS 17 after locking their phone with the client open, this should no longer be an issue on the latest version of iOS (17.1 or higher), so make sure to update to the latest version if this is an issue you’re experiencing.
• Android:
  • We strongly recommend running the client using the latest version of Chrome browser.

For any other inquiries, make sure to check out the Mobile client troubleshooting guide:

We hope you enjoy this update & tournament, and we are counting on you to continue reporting mobile bugs so that we can get them all patched up.
 
Best of luck in the tournament!

Alora Mobile Is Live! (iOS & Android)

Hello everyone,

Alora Mobile is finally here! You can now access the mobile client by going to the following URL on your mobile device:

https://mobile.alora.io

The app is not available in the App Store, so you'll have to download it by following the on-screen instructions. On Android, you should get an "Install App" button, but if you don't see that, there are instructions to install below:

Installation instructions for iOS:

Installation instructions for Android:

Troubleshooting:

• Low FPS:
  • ​We are continuing to make FPS improvements where we can, but the best thing you can do to improve FPS is to have a recent, powerful phone to handle the game. You can also play with the settings interface in the "Mobile" section to reduce render distance, limit entity rendering, turn on Low-detail, etc.
• Periodic crashing on iPhone:
  • ​There is currently a bug on Safari that could cause a crash on some older/weaker iPhones after some time (usually after being in-game for 10+ minutes), we are working on patching this up but in the meantime if your iPhone is older than iPhone 13, or you have an iPhone mini, that this could happen to you, and don't partake in dangerous content for the time being.
• Flickering black screen after logging in on iPhone:
  • ​As far as we can tell, this is due to an iOS bug. We suspect that this will be fixed soon, but in the meantime we have provided a "safe-mode" client for you to use if this happens to you:
    • ​https://mobile.alora.io/debug
      • ​This client has lower performance than the main client, but if you are experiencing this issue it is currently the only way to play.
• Stuck on "Allocating memory" on startup:
  • ​If you experience this issue, your app is likely corrupt. We are still working on diagnosing what causes this, but in order to fix it, we recommend deleting the app from your homescreen, and then completely clearing your cache (On iPhone, you would go to Settings -> Safari -> Clear Caches & History and select the "All Time" option), and then re-installing the client again.

Bugs are to be expected, so please be mindful of this when participating in dangerous content where you may lose items. Otherwise, have fun, and we'll keep you updated on the $3,000 Mobile-Locked Ironman Tournament coming up next week! :)

We'll see you in-game on mobile!

Hello everyone,

We know many of you have been patiently awaiting this update, so we thank you for all of your patience while we applied the finishing touches... Combat Achievements are officially live!

We're particularly excited about this update because of it's potential to transform PvM and make it an overall more rewarding experiencing, giving you plenty of tasks to complete (over 400), many of which you'll naturally be completing as you progress through the game.

        • This cannot be done in the wilderness/during duels/gambles.
        • The cards thrown have no effect on players, and are purely visual.
  • The Elite/Superior/regular Calamity sets have been added to the Cosmetic mystery box.
    • These items have no stats/requirements, and are purely cosmetic.

    • A huge thanks to @Mack, who helped us test and improve the Combat achievements throughout the entire process.
  • To view details for the combat achievements, players can click the quest tab icon, and then click the Combat Tasks Completed button to launch the overview.
    • Players can click the icon in the top left corner of the interface to view all the tasks, view all the bosses/details about each one, as well as view the rewards that can be obtained from completed every task in each tier.
    • The overview will show a player’s progress and milestones, and allow them to view tasks pertaining to specific monsters and difficulties.
      • There are 6 possible tiers for the achievements, ranging from easy tasks all the way up to grandmaster tasks.
        • Whenever a player completes a tier, they can speak to Ghommal near the Edgeville general store to claim their rewards.
    • Players can view their extra settings to toggle the option to be notified when they’ve failed a combat achievement (this works with the vast majority, but not all achievements).
      • If enabled, players will receive a chatbox message letting them know which task they’ve failed, and why.
    • Each achievement will be categorized as one of the following type of task:
      • Killcount:
        • A player must reach a specific killcount to complete the achievement.
      • Speed:
        • A player must kill the npc within a specific timeframe to complete the achievement.
          • These tasks may or may not also have team size limitations, which will be stated if so.
      • Mechanical:
        • A player must meet the exact conditions required in the task description to complete the achievement.
      • Perfection:
        • These tasks usually require that players kill an npc/complete a raid with near-perfect execution.
      • Restriction:
        • These tasks require players kill an npc with a specific restriction, perhaps regarding the weapons/armour they use, prayers, or other things.
      • Stamina:
        • These generally require players kill a boss in an instance a specific number of times without leaving.
    • There are 404 total tasks at the moment, however more will continue to be added in the future.
      • When new tasks are added, players will need to complete the missing tasks to regain the perks of that tier.
        • Ghommal’s hilts can still be equipped and used, but any other cosmetic rewards will not be equippable until the tier is completed.
          • Players will still be able to remove the ornamentation from these items to get back the original item that can be equipped.
      • Each tier has the following number of achievements:
        • Easy: 25
        • Medium: 35
        • Hard: 57
        • Elite: 106
        • Master: 105
        • Grandmaster: 76

  • Players will now feed harpoonfish into the Tempoross cannons 1 tick faster.
  • Players will now only have to stand on Olm's absorption/teleportion pools for 1 tick for it to register them as safer, rather than needing to stand on it for the entire graphic during.

  • Fixed a bug where the skills progress plugin would draw the progress overlays over the yellow box when hovering over a skill.

Although we've done our best to ensure that this update is thoroughly tested, there will likely be some bugs that we'll get to in the next 48 hours, so make sure to report them as quickly as possible so that we can patch them hastily. 

 We hope you enjoy this update!

Omicron & Chad

Just ran a couple of ToB's since the latest update and it was utterely unplayable.

Whilst I agree that keeping true to OSRS is in everyones best interest but ToB is already dead content and updating to make Verzik practically impossible to hit unless you have a Scythe is making it worse. Bloat stomps with no animation so you get randomly slapped for between 40-80.. then you're unable to use game features like DWH to decrease Verzik defence to combat the stupid defence increase.

Why is dead content being updated to make it worse without any community poll? It's already a struggle to get a team, now when you do, X out of Y you fail due to a team wipe and then you spend 20 mins killing Verzik. If you do succeed you get rewarded with crap.

This time around I let the community decide where we'd like to focus our fundraising efforts. A charity event for mental health won by a LANDSLIDE. With that being said, I know it is something that a lot of us can relate to and may be afraid to share. I can say from experience, that NAMI is an excellent resource for anyone who may be struggling or just looking to learn more.
