Update from Jul 27 2024

This update resolves several critical issues including split private chat problems, disconnect handling improvements, and re-enabling the Grand Exchange. The update also includes various balance adjustments, quality-of-life improvements, and bug fixes across multiple game systems.

Major fixes

  • Split private chat and chat scrolling issues have been resolved
  • When you disconnect from your character and can't log in because it's already logged in, make a single login request, wait 20 seconds, then you should be able to log in again without needing a kick
  • The Slayer Teleporter cooldown-bypass-fee is now affected by the Teleportation Haggler talent
  • The Grand Exchange is no longer disabled
    • You can now also sell types of item currencies, except for coins (e.g. Upgrade gems, august tokens, vote tokens, etc.)

Equipment and item changes

  • You can no longer ignore the warning and temper your only item in your inventory. You will need at least 2 in your inventory to temper
  • The Unholy Book you get from the melee bundle in the donator store has been fixed, and is now correctly giving a book of war
  • Dizana's quiver and Ava's assembler now requires 85 and 75 ranged respectively, to equip, rather than 100 and 90 defence
  • The corrupted community mystery box is now tradeable

World adjustments

  • World bosses and vote bosses now scale HP uniformly, and are no longer tuned for a server launch where nobody has any gear
  • Shooting stars has been temporarily disabled. The feature needs time for development and testing before re-releasing
    • The Star Sprite has been spawned next to the makeover mage, west of ::home, for anyone to spend their existing stardust
  • More cave horror spawns have been added
  • Demonic gorillas now have smarter pathfinding
  • The aggressive ZMI NPCs next to the altar have been removed

Economy and resources

  • Infinity cloth shop sell value has been reduced, and the frequency of gathering is slightly reduced
  • The rogues outfit was unintentionally doubling the amount of skilling tokens you gain. This has been fixed
  • Seren, from the talent Grace of the Elves, will no longer be able to be spam clicked for potentially multiple rewards
  • You can now sell items back to the skilling token store
  • Dense essence will now be sent to your bank, instead of noted in your inventory, when claiming it at Aubury

Other improvements

  • The tumeken's shadow, and every other charged staff, should have the correct attack styles, allowing you to longrange for defence XP
  • The ::refer command should no longer lock you permanently if the interface gets closed before you select your referrer
