Update from Dec 2 2024

This update introduces the new Christmas Trinket available through voting, featuring ice-themed variants of powerful weapons and a chance at the exclusive Ice Anti-Santa pet. The update also fixes the runecrafting bug that was reducing rune production, allows ironman players to downgrade their mode, and includes numerous small fixes and balance changes.

Misc updates

  • Utility Unleashed will now properly require charges
  • Large spades are now tradeable
  • Only check for dragonstone rank when actually using DDZ door
  • Limit triple drop tokens in DDZ to 3 per week
  • Drop loot for all contributors for Cerberus instead of just 1 person
  • Give adrenaline assault a 3t cooldown, attempting to try and retain the power, without 1t blowpipe being infinite health
  • Players lower than dragonstone rank will no longer receive dragonstone zone points for voting
  • Disallow superiors from engaging in combat with other people
  • Add a warning to donation rank transferring about it only being allowed to move rank between your own accounts
  • Don't activate drop multiplier token if you're too far from the npc
  • Nihil horn is now tradeable
  • Corp tome page drops will no longer broadcast to the entire world
  • The DDZ cooking fire will now properly take all 40 minnows when cooking them there
  • Mossy keys will now be auto-looted with the keyring / key utility talent
  • Using Last Recall will now properly interrupt your actions upon use

Notable changes

  • You can now choose to deiron / downgrade your ironman mode by talking to the ironman tutor
  • The bug that caused runecrafting to produce far less runes at higher levels has been fixed, and you'll now gain a bunch of runes and XP again
  • Our auction finished yesterday, and we have a couple of new really impressive looking cosmetic sets added for the winner

Christmas trinket

Before we have our christmas event come to August this December, you'll be able to get your hands on the new Christmas Trinket through voting! Every vote claimed will have a chance to get one!

They will also be available on the donator store soon, and then available through the Christmas event when it releases!

Bonus loot

Every trinket will have a 1 in 11 chance at giving you the Ice Anti-Santa Egg, which lets you summon a new Holiday Pet which can be summoned and follow you alongside your existing pets! This is a new pet slot that will be used for holiday event pets moving forward.

This means you can have, for example:

  • Vorki
  • Guardian
  • Bloodworm
  • Ice Anti-Santa
  • Olympian Guardians

all out at the same time following you. Ice Anti-Santa does not fight.
