image.png

- The interface will track your Donor rank and tell you your progress to the next one!

image.png

- There is also some predetermined Suggested perks for new players to pick from! If they buy a suggested perk it will replace it with another
- You can buy the Suggested perks from the [i] button! 

image.png

- You can also specifically pick categories of perks and read them all/filter by price or whether you've unlocked them or not!

image.png

- When buying a perk, it will change the blank star to a gold one:

image.png

- Armar managed to add in a Roadrunner icon to the title.. As requested by Cj
- Congrats to all participants.

 

[+] Ranged Update

- Something that has been needed for a long time is Ammo scaling...
- Simply put, this scales down the damage of ammo you're using to the tier of bow you're using it with..
- If you're using a Chaotic crossbow with T99 ammo, that ammo damage will only be T80
- This was a necessary change in striving towards a balanced combat triangle.

 

[+] Pernix Quiver

- You can now craft a Pernix Quiver using Fragments Of Pernix's Quiver
- You can receive these fragments from any T3 Elder godwars Trove:

image.png

- The quiver itself will equip in your Ammo slot:

image.png

- You can store up to 2 different types of ammo in your quiver, the highlighted ammo will be the one in use:

image.png

- You can choose which one you want to focus through right clicking:

image.png

- You can then easily cycle between which ammo type you want, check the amount or remove them:

image.png

- When equipped you'll have access to two Ranged abilities that allow you to easily switch between the two via your Action bar:

image.png

- You can store up to 20,000 ammo of each type in the quiver
- The passive effect will increase your max hit by 4% when the target is below 25% health
- You can have multiple Pernix quivers and you can colour them using the Dyes from the Loyalty shop:

image.png

 

[+] Slayer Update

- Slayer has received a major update! All tasks and task amounts are now accurate to RS3:
 

[+] Abyssal Creatures

- Abyssal savages, Abyssal beasts and Abyssal Lords have been added
- You can access these through the ;;t interface:

image.png

- These Abyssal creatures all drop a new item "Abyssal flesh" which can be used to upgrade Armour spikes or Armour spikes (alloy) to Abyssal armour spikes/Abyssal armour spikes (alloy) at a rate of 10 flesh to 100 spikes, the effect of which will be shown in a video below

image.png


- Abyssal savages don't drop anything unique of note
- Abyssal beasts have a 1/5000 chance off-task and a 1/1000 chance on-task to drop Jaws of the Abyss:

- As well as the affects of the Abyssal armour spikes in this short video:

 

 

[+] Nodon Dragonkin

- As well as the Abyssal creatures, Nodon Dragonkin slayer assignment and creatures has been added!
- You can find these at the Nodon front, accessed through teleporting to the Slayer assignment on ;;t like so:

image.png

- You can now fight:

Nodon Artificier

image.png

- As we don't have Cannons, Kinetic cyclones or Oldak coils, the rare drops from the Nodon dragonkin are fairly irrelevant.
- They do, however, have a pet drop:

image.png

 

[+] Greater demon berserker and Ash lords

- Finally, Greater demon berserker and ash lords are added! Both can be killed on a Greater demon slayer task reducing the counter by 8 per kill or on their own respective slayer tasks
- You can access these through ;;t > Slayer:

image.png

- The final Slayer change is that Mandrith is now the highest level Slayer master! He requires 120 combat and 95 Slayer.
- And an alternative to the low level Slayer masters is now Jacquelyn:

image.png

 

[+] Event Token Changes

- Events have been reworked slightly, as there was an issue of people hoarding their tokens waiting to be able to pick specific events, I've removed the option to pick a specific event
- Your options are now:

image.png

- Selecting Random Event will activate any random event
- Selecting Random Skilling Event will activate one of the following: Double Gathering, Double Spotlights, Triple Experience, Contract EXP
- Selecting Random Combat Event will activate one of the following: Double Drops, +25% Drop rate, Double Slayer & Reaper, Double Spotlights or Extra Damage
- Selecting a random category will cost 2 tokens instead of 1, however, if you're a Master Member, you can use just 1 token for any option
- Furthermore, as it's all easier to activate now, Events can now overlap! You will receive a warning dialogue if an event is already active:

image.png

- Rolling the same event won't make the token useless, it will add to the timer of the current event like so:

image.png

image.png

- This also allows for the possibility of Extra damage, Drop rate and Double drops all at one time :classic_ohmy:

image.png

 

[+] Reaper Task Changes

-Most of the previous experiences of hunting Reaper tasks was skipping tasks until you could find the one you want...
- Which, for progressing players is ok, as they might get a task that they could do but may not feel like it but do it anyway
- However, for end-game players, they'd spend an exorbitant amount on trying to get a specific task they want
- Firstly, skipping Vorago will rule out Vorago from your next skip, so you won't waste money on skipping back to back of the same Boss
- Also, we've added the ability to pick your task.. Provided you have every Reaper perk unlocked:

image.png

- Selecting the first option will open up the following interface:

image.png

- You can pick any task you would like for only 30m (15m if you have The Discounter perk)
- We've also added a new Reaper Perk for 1,500 Reaper points:

image.png

- So when you pick a task you will be able to pick between the Min amount, Assigned amount, Max amount like so:

image.png


[+] Loyalty Shop

- Updated the loyalty shop with some new goodies:

image.png

- You can now buy Herb boxes and Secondaries boxes for 1,000 points each
- Aura refreshes cost 15,000/25,000/35,000/50,000
- You can buy an Ataraxia coin sack which contains between 5 and 250 Ataraxia coins for 20,000
- You can buy Elite dungeon booster tokens and Skilling booster tokens for 100,000 each
- You can buy Keepsake keys for 125,000 each
- Hoping this is something you all like if you've got a few loyalty points laying around...
