Update from Oct 23 2024

This update primarily focuses on fixing various bugs and addressing performance issues that were causing occasional server-wide lag. Key changes include fixes for equipment visual bugs, GIM functionality improvements, and adjustments to Zulrah and TOA rewards to improve balance and accessibility.

Group Ironman improvements

  • Swapper GIMs who are the only member left in their group, can now completely leave their group and join another Swapper GIM group
  • Swapper GIMs can now leave their group without the dialog interface causing issues
  • Inviting players to your group should no longer lag the world

Performance

  • Several performance improvements have been made behind the scenes to address the occasional server-wide lag and sometimes mass disconnections

Zulrah changes

  • The onyx has been moved to the regular table, but is still rare. Uniques table will only be the Zulrah uniques now (fangs/visage)
  • Toxic orbs have been reduced from 25k scales to 15k scales to craft
  • Toxic orbs now drop at 1/35 base rate instead of 1/50
  • There are a couple of new achievements for Hard Mode Zulrah

TOA changes

  • You can now break down Masori pieces into Masori crafting kits
  • You can now convert Keris gems into TOA common keys

Bug fixes

  • Luminary set proc had a bug where it would proc when you deal damage with porcupine or other special effects, but now correctly procs only on regular attacks
  • Thermy pet is now in the collection log - it was meant to be there the whole time, but was excluded
  • Dagannoth Prime's water surge animation has been fixed, so it'll no longer spazz out when attacking
  • Volcanic heartstone (noted) is now tradeable
  • When prestiging, your prayers should now get deactivated, so you can't keep higher level prayers running while you don't have the levels for it
  • Many chest pieces that should remove your default arm models were bugged out, but now are fixed (e.g. justiciar chestguard)
