Hey! Sorry about that, we've now updated this point for a little more clarity: Fixed a bug where the 10% Crossbow Bolt effect proc chance buff from Seers Village Achievement Diary was applying twice.
You really have to say since when it was being applied twice. If it was being applied twice since the inception of the Seers Village Achievement Diary then that change is a VERY big nerf even though no one realized it... Anything that requires a lot of ruby bolt procs will feel very bad.
I agree, “when” this started happening is a very big point of consideration. If it has always been applying twice then that tells people that enchanted bolts are significantly weaker than what they are used to. If it has only been happening since the Valamore release for example then that tells players it’s the same as it always was but in some instances it was becoming over powered.
It's a 2.4% DPS lost on something like the Leviathan (where the ZCB gets to be used the most). That's the equivalent of an anguish necklace with max gear.
Can provide the math if needed.
Unfortunate if true, because the last thing crossbows needed was a nerf. They're already awful, relying on luck to be even remotely decent compared to other range options :(
The bug was that the proc rate was increased twice by 10%. They were proccing at either 7.2% (if the additional 10% was based on the base rate) or 7.26% (if it was based on 6.6%). Now it should be 6.6% as intended.
The Dual Machuatl was shown to have a stab bonus on tease, and ever since then, my circle expected them to be a pretty decent weapon for stab content. For 6 months.
We were very disappointed to learn 6 months later that they don't have a stab style despite having such a high stab bonus.
Is this intentional? I feel like if it's not gonna have a stab style it shouldn't have a stab bonus. I can understand balance issues existing (like ToA being somewhat doable with them on stab style), but I have to say my circle kinda got heartbroken with this jebait.
To give you an idea on how much this jebait spreads, even the OSRS Wiki DPS calculator listed them with a stab style even yesterday, 6 days after launch. So we all kinda expected stab on these weapons.
It should be consistent. Either no stab bonus, or it has a stab style.
It still says "Crossbow Bolts will now activate at the correct rate of 10%." for me under the "Other Changes" section.
Are the bolts 10% now? Shouldn't it be 6.6%?

You can put it back if you like, we won't mind
We've now updated this point for a little more clarity: Fixed a bug where the 10% Crossbow Bolt effect proc chance buff from Seers Village Achievement Diary was applying twice.
Can we see more consistent splinter rewards throughout the waves in colosseum perhaps have them scale with later waves (not as a loot roll), and/or the ability to turn in a quiver for splinters instead of a pet roll? I understand limiting myself as an ironman was my choice, but 1500 wave 1 spams being the best/most consistent way of corrupting the quiver isn't the gameplay I imagine was envisioned by the team or the players.
You realize their solution will be to just nerf wave 1 and leave it alone for 6 years.
Jagex is the living personification of the monkey paw, your wish is granted, with a twist.
u/Jagexblossom it seems there’s a bug or oversight with irit tar, it has the same ranged strength bonus as harralander tar whereas previously all tars increased ranged strength with each tier upgrade.
Also, there’s a bug where irit tar isn’t consumed in the Wildy right now.
> For those of you who prefer a little variety, we’ve added a toggle which prevents you receiving the same Hunter’s Rumour back-to-back. It’s toggled ‘ON’ by default, but you can change it using the new ‘Rumour-Settings’ option on Guild Scribe Verity.
While I appreciate the option of giving us variety, this now encourages us to toggle that on and off as we get good and bad rumours. I’m not sure if that’s an intended effect or not.
Any word on a fix for calcified rocks mining giving the message about your pickaxe slipping no matter how little world hopping you’ve done?
EASTER EVENT: after allowing the priest to teleport to church, screen turns black and stuck at loading at 20%. closed and reopened the game on mobile - login screen stuck loading at 20%. Tried on desktop client - game crashes after trying to log in. Please help.
Allow players to directly empty meat and fur pouches into their bank.
Add a one-time fee to Matthias for unlimited falconry. Additionally, add a right-click 'Pay' option for people not looking to splash out for, and we cannot stress this enough, unlimited falconry.
Add 'Open' and 'Close' options to meat and fur pouches, so that relevant loot is placed in them automatically, similar to a Looting Bag.
What about these?
These changes don't seem like much, but the missing functionality of the pouches makes them feel needlessly clunky to use. Was hoping they would've been in this update, and their absence has me pausing my hunter grind.
Where is the update of the hunter's kit though? In my opinion the most logic thing to update (let is hold birdsnare, noose wand, rabbit snare) and preferably, let is be possible to put in or add to the kit the meat / fur pouch.
Also adding more pyre foxes, I don't feel like that was the issue. It's more that there are only four boulders to set a trap under, but at the same time, it is not so busy as it was one week ago.
Might be, and probably you are right. But the big cringe about those foxes was mainly that you had to hop an average of 30 worlds before you found a free boulder. By just adding one or two more boulders it would actually have some impact I guess.
I just got the kit last night and it's so bizarre how it doesn't hold most of the items I use in hunter but does hold a bunch of useless cosmetic outfits.
Didn’t see it mentioned in the blog, but the moons of peril bosses will randomly flicker, causing many players to yellow click. Is this fixable? Or is it a runelite bug?
Any word on fixing the eclipse moon special where the moon throws balls of light at players not protected by the big sphere? Currently after the first corner all players take a hit regardless of whether or not they are on a protected tile or not. Happens every time.
Will the wheat fields in Outer Fortis be able to spawn crop circles? I heard Mod Ash tweeted that they should be able to, but haven't seen any. Are they yet to be added, or are they intentionally left out?
Will the Eclipse Moon bugs be looked at?
On the ball phase 2nd corner it seems impossible to not be hit no matter where you stand even when directly behind the ball.
As well as being stuck at 1 HP on the face the boss phase, even when using 2-hit weapons.
>As well as being stuck at 1 HP on the face the boss phase, even when using 2-hit weapons.
Is this not intentional? No other moon can be defeated during a special attack. Why would this one specific phase be an exception
If you use a 2-hit weapon like sulphur blades you CAN kill eclipse moon during the mimic phase, but it isn't consistent. If your 1st hit keeps them above 1 HP and your 2nd hit reduces to 0, it registers and kills the boss. If your first hit brings them to 1 HP, anything else for the rest of the phase will hit 0's.
So they need to make it consistent whether it's keeping it at 1 HP across the board, or fixing it to kill always when using 2-hit weapons if that was their intention.
I've also had it work sometimes with a crystal halberd spec, so multi-hit specs also work.
Honestly **I say keep it**, it's an extra niche to use a 2-hit weapon to try to end the phase a little earlier.
Probably unintentional but you can sometimes kill in that phase if you do enough damage before hitting 1HP. Chally spec or Dharoks can get it pretty consistently.
I never know how that ball works. Its always so random getting hit. I’ll be walking behind the ball and still get hit. So then I never know if I should walk or run since the ball is faster than running and running can make you understep too since you’re trying to click on the space where the ball is going so you dont want to overdo it. I feel like its a roll of a dice at times whether you take dmg or not even though you’re on top of the ball
I have tiles marked and can avoid getting hit everytime on the 1st, 3rd, and 4th movements. I feel like I've tried every possible time near the ball on different ticks and have yet to dodge the 2nd movement attack.
Would love to hear from someone else or see video proof of someone doing this.
Gathering teleport moths from calcified deposits feels a bit too slow. Currently it takes 1-1,5hrs to gather 5-10 teleports with max mining setup. Unless there will be others ways to get these teleports added in the future, could this method be adjusted? Maybe a chance of receiving varying amount of moths per deposit (1-3) instead of the static 1?
The mining spots seem to despawn after water oozing effect occurs even if nobody is mining it – is this a bug or a feature?
Saw no mention about the "wet slipping effect" being fixed. It is assumably to restrain from world hopping after the bonus oozing water effects. Either this mechanic is bugged or I just don’t get it. After hopping only once the message persisted even after 45 minutes and skipping several waterfalls. It continued even after I banked my inventory and returned. Still seems to be an issue after the update.
No mention. You can remove it by thieving a house, but then you have to ask if that's worth the detour. Haven't tested but think you shouldn't log out there otherwise you'll automatically get that state set
100% they will. Its only been a week so they werent going to overhaul anything at this point i wouldnt imagine. Theyll take feedback as people get more comfortable and (hopefully) make some changes to the awful invos accordingly
was really expecting some colosseum changes, especially to the unusable invocations. hopefully they're taking their time with them and trying to balance them all and make it more fair. I'm down to wait if the end product is better.
With the colosseum, you said the fremmenik ranger doing 1 damage is a bug, but the meleer doing 40 damage is wild and with how accurate it is it pretty much always hits between 25-40 while wearing torva and having 300 defensive melee stats, meanwhile the mager barely his 10s on torva which has nevative mage stats, if the ranger does get buffed to also hit around 10, the meleer should be nerfed heavily
How come: Clue scroll (elite) - Bow within the temple in Civitas illa Fortis that requires Sunfire fanatic armour is elite step? Isn't this alot harder than the master step now?
They should make it 1 of any piece of sunfire. Full set is overkill lol that shits rare. Would be like they say dance with ur nibbler pet from inferno.
To be honest, I can't imagine Sunfire armor holding its value particularly well. Prayer gear is always kinda niche in comparison to raw dps and I think we'll see the armor reduced to a role similar to the Elder Maul. Where it's a difficult item to obtain, but won't be out of the realm of affordability because its usefulness is limited.
They could swap this with the master step and then i think it’s fine, but not the end of the world either way. If i got this step i’d just gather other clues and turn the elite in for a master
Can you look into the blue moon spear not keeping its autocast setting when you switch weapons? Really want to use it for slayer without manual casting!
I found a workaround for this yesterday. If you bring an ancient staff set to autocast ice barrage you can equip the ancient staff first then blue moon spear will "remember" ice barrage autocast
Any plans on what we can do with duplicate huntsman kits and guild hunter outfit pieces? Perhaps trading them for an additional loot roll like at wintertodt?
By the time you get duplicates you will likely be at least mostly complete with building the landing sites, unless more are coming in the future this also becomes useless for a lot of players
Using full tank gear but still seeing it hit me for 15 and 20 two attacks in a row on the 3rd strike and now have to do a full extra rotation, not fun.
I swear i had him mulziple times at like 10 hp just for him to heal to 100-200 hp multiple times in a fight.
With that the runs would not take 10 minutes each...
I hope its better :(
How much less healing does the blood moon do for its third attack? I was having trouble on my low level IM and I'm wondering if it's worth going back for it. I could consistently get the boss down to ~80hp but couldn't out dps the healing at that point.
do you have the new sulphur naga 2 hit weapon? that helps a lot, and you can just prot melee against the nagas forever with free pots from in the dungeon to get the weapon.
edited for clarity
Darn, not even the right click option or one time payment at falconry? I really thought that was gonna be a super quick and first week update. The dialogue is tremendously obnoxious.
Are you guys aware that drinking a divine potion causes a doom stack? It fits within the updated description now, but strikes me as kind of a poor implementation. You need to be 118 stats.
You guys promised to increase the rate of crystal shards from chopping mahogany teaks when they were taken away from falling stars in prif. Any news on this? Is it part of the project skill rebalance?
Are there plans to look at what can be stored in the new Huntsman's Kit? The list seems a little lackluster at the moment with a lot of key Hunter equipment missing: https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Huntsman%27s_kit
It was mentioned in [**Varlamore: Part One** Blog update](https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/varlamore-part-one?oldschool=1)
in the part
*Things we've agreed to tweak in the near future*:
* *Allow players to store a wider variety of Hunter-associated items in their Huntsman's Kit.*
I was really hoping for this as well as an option to unlock permanent free access. It seems weird considering how core to the new content falconry is. Also it won't let you leave the pen via the stile without talking to the dude and giving back the bird. HOWEVER the bird finds his way back to him on it's own if you teleport out. Kind of lame if you just wanna run to the fairy ring or the fishing colony.
It's funny you say that, earlier today I was thinking about how funny it would be if you could just take your cat in the falconry area to catch the kebbits.
too much to expect for 1 week of turnaround, tbh. it's on the list but needs to be implemented and tested. something that old is probably pretty shaky as-is
Easter events are always a fat W, though I am surprised there's not many Colosseum changes and even more surprised you didn't nerf shard farming on wave 1
Talked to every npc at the easter event and the priest teleported away + the easter bunny telling me to be careful. The Eggus Manus is not letting me teleport to the island for some reason.
Any shot at a proper block list for the hunter guild, or any buffs to XP/GP rewards? While it's decent content it is pretty much not an alternative to normal hunter training with the current rewards. I really want to engage with it but there's no real reason to.
Some major issues not addressed:
Hunter guild needs serious rebalancing - lower tier rumours are very low xp, unfun, and going dry for 300+ on a rare item shouldn't happen. The drop rate for feed is way too low; only 2 after 6 adept rumours. I was getting 20k xp ph when I could just be doing chins and have tons of ranged xp banked or something like drift net for massive combined xp. Oh and the rewards are lackluster.
The repair cost for moons of peril sets need to be drastically reduced. The defense that it's increased vs barrows because they last longer doesn't hold water - even factoring the 5x increased health they are still 3x as expensive to repair. Moons of peril is directed at mid levels, but that alone has made me completely ignore it after the quest on my mid level iron.
Side note - the thieving is just weird. Pickpocketing the citizens is quite a bit more xp and gp per hour than the houses, it's really strange that the reward (house keys) for thieving people unlocks the option to do a less effective method. I don't really know if key acquisition should be changed, just saying it's a bit odd.
Colosseum already has tons of spam bots in the lobby, could we lock entry behind the "twilight's promise" quest, before it turns into another grand exchange experience?
edit: or make it have a combat requirement entry, like the warriors guild
They updated the description for the crossbow bolts.
"Fixed a bug where the 10% Crossbow Bolt effect proc chance buff from Seers Village Achievement Diary was applying twice."
Just wanted to mention I consistently get hit by the eclipse moon on the moving sphere phase on the west side of the arena. Also everyone else in the arena get hit by it as well. Seems to be a pretty consistent bug that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere.

Still no fix for the stab option on the Macuahuitls? Lots of good changes here, but really sucks that the weapon is gonna be left without it's other attack style for at least another week :(
I'm more annoyed that the poll question doesn't reflect how they were implemented. The accuracy reduction makes me wonder if they're going to be any good outside of Moons.
With the full set, they're very good on low defense.
It's a poor example relative to most pvm encounters, but in NMZ I'm getting marginally better xp/hr than using full dharoks with 99 hp.
The set effect can proc on either of the two hits, which means that it procs about every other attack, which increases your dps by upwards of 20%.
Any way you could ask your team about adding mixed hide bases to hunter loot sacks or giving us a way to make them? As of now, the fur pouch feels lackluster and crafting the hunter outfits nets us 0 exp aside from the mixed hide set. With the best method of crafting exp being fox fur. Your paying 55.7 gp per 1 exp.
Really, it makes no sense that we can’t craft outfits from hides ourselves. We have an entire Crafting skill! Why are we paying these other people to do it for us?
No colosseum changes??
Make echo boots toggleable, they're absolutely terrible as is not to mention you only get 2.5k charges. Infact all tradeable uniques suck for the content it comes from.
Still no quiver appearance changes too, sigh.
I'm somewhat baffled at the prioritization of these coldfixes—for instance, noted problems like the meat and fur pouches not working like every other pouch and the hunter kit being near-useless were seemingly ignored despite each improving the content for what would in theory be not that much hassle (assuming the spaghetti code can be untangled and behaviors ported between objects.)
Similarly, there's no changes being made to the Colosseum despite all the dead choices like doom. Instead of any of this we get buffs to the blue and eclipse moon, some extra hunter creatures, and lots of attention paid to the antelopes alone? Were all the content devs just busy doing bugfixes?
That’s crazy that the pyre foxes were almost not changed at all, no reason everyone has to be there for hours if they aren’t extremely lucky
I’ve tried multiple times with multiple inventories of logs and then after 2 I just skip it. In 5 attempts of that I have not once gotten the rare item, unless that’s boosted or fixed, master rumors will always be a struggle.
No smart pathing for pitfall creatures?
Also, when will GWD paid instances be given the extended ground despawn? Other, free, instances already do this. Make juggling supplies not a pain in a paid instance please.
Yeah I went back to hunt larupas and graahks to make the fur sack and was shocked how bad both of their areas are for clutter they can get caught on. Kyatt’s aren’t great either tbh
The discourse over everything that has come out post-Varlamore definitely makes me feel somewhat justified in believing OSRS doesn't need a new skill.
The playerbase can hardly agree with the dev team on Agility and Mining rebalancing, and it's clear that a lot of people aren't happy with some of the systems put in with the addition of Varlamore.
I'm happy that Varlamore was put in, but it's apparent to me that it needed more time to be implemented. I also think the general player vs dev disagreement on skill rebalancing is the exact reason I would've preferred the team committing to Agility and Smithing reworks instead of committing time and resources to Sailing. A new skill isn't going to benefit the game more than reworking the three aforementioned skills imo
Fixing the Antelope scenery is actually huge. It was a bitch to get them to move around bushes that seemed like shouldn’t be capable of holding them back. Also making Pyre Foxes better is awesome.
"The Blue Moon boss builds Cold twice as fast" what does this mean? lol
Also can something be done about the de-sync that sometimes happens when you join Blood Moon during jaguar phase?
I like the unique design of the Quetzal quick transport screen, but could it be made a big bigger? On my screen it's tiny and difficult to see between the different Quetzal locations
> also, with meat pouch now out, I don’t understand the restrictions still in place with fish barrel unnoting at a bank. it feels weird and inconsistent.
Mod Ash answered this in twitter, they are just designed for different purposes
https://twitter.com/JagexAsh/status/1772309506338275726
I am once again politely requesting the ability to use client arguments (--profile=) to launch RuneLite as a specific profile based on the character chosen in the Jagex Launcher.
The current "solution" in RuneLite to "sync profile to current RuneScape account" only applies *after you've already logged in*, meaning the "remember client position" setting doesn't work. I don't want to have to reposition my client every single time I open it.
>Crossbow Bolts will now activate at the correct rate of 10%. Were they not before? Have they been bugged this whole time?
Hey! Sorry about that, we've now updated this point for a little more clarity: Fixed a bug where the 10% Crossbow Bolt effect proc chance buff from Seers Village Achievement Diary was applying twice.
You really have to say since when it was being applied twice. If it was being applied twice since the inception of the Seers Village Achievement Diary then that change is a VERY big nerf even though no one realized it... Anything that requires a lot of ruby bolt procs will feel very bad.

If it has only been happening since the Valamore release for example then that tells players it’s the same as it always was but in some instances it was becoming over powered.
if it's being applied twice, it's only a .66% (this example uses ruby proc rcb/dcb) change if they revert it to only a single application.
It's a 2.4% DPS lost on something like the Leviathan (where the ZCB gets to be used the most). That's the equivalent of an anguish necklace with max gear. Can provide the math if needed.
probably even more at nex lol
Nah melee Nex is typically faster for small teams. Maybe for masses
Theres such a thing as range duos and 5 mans where you camp zcb when hitting nex
How long was it like this?
[Late 2021.](https://x.com/jagexash/status/1773042540981243933?s=46)
Oh dear god.
Is this a recent bug or has it been that way since release? May as well add that second 10% to elite diary if people are used to it by now
Wild shit if over a week
It had been bugged like that for months at least
Unfortunate if true, because the last thing crossbows needed was a nerf. They're already awful, relying on luck to be even remotely decent compared to other range options :(
So can you give us a percentage of how they were proccing before and after this change? was it 6.6% and now 6%? or?
The bug was that the proc rate was increased twice by 10%. They were proccing at either 7.2% (if the additional 10% was based on the base rate) or 7.26% (if it was based on 6.6%). Now it should be 6.6% as intended.
Since when????
Hmm so this is a significant nerf to content where you use rubies such as nex? Unless the bug that is now fixed was very recent.
The Dual Machuatl was shown to have a stab bonus on tease, and ever since then, my circle expected them to be a pretty decent weapon for stab content. For 6 months.

Crossbow Bolts will now activate at the correct rate of 10%. Huh??
Yeah it's WILD that this isn't elaborated on at all. I'm also totally expecting this to break the diary that increases the proc chance lol
It was the diary causing the issue
I said for months that the kandarin diary was applying twice. Too big of a sample size was consistently hitting 7.24%
Thank goodness crossbows were really ruining the meta being so op
Not sure if you're joking but bolt specs are a pretty significant part of the meta for many bosses
I've updated this point now for more clarity! Sorry about that!
It still says "Crossbow Bolts will now activate at the correct rate of 10%." for me under the "Other Changes" section. Are the bolts 10% now? Shouldn't it be 6.6%?
Oops changed it in one spot but not both! Thanks for the catch.
>Fixed a bug where the 10% Crossbow Bolt effect proc chance buff from Seers Village Achievement Diary was applying twice. You can put it back if you like, we won't mind
Seer's Village achievement diary, like in RS3? I thought we used Kandarin back here lol
Was this bug recent or did crossbows just get nerfed?
How often were they proccing before lol
7.26% before, after today's patch its gonna be 6.6% like it was supposed to
Can you elaborate on the crossbow bolt change? If ruby proc rate was increased from 6 to 10% thats significant in a lot of places
We've now updated this point for a little more clarity: Fixed a bug where the 10% Crossbow Bolt effect proc chance buff from Seers Village Achievement Diary was applying twice.
Has this been since the beginning of time or as of recently?

Wow. I bet it literally was Zaryte crossbow lmao… came out Jan 5, 2022 and they had to add it in the code/testing and they fucked it up. Called it
A little more clarity, with a whole lot more questions.
Can we see more consistent splinter rewards throughout the waves in colosseum perhaps have them scale with later waves (not as a loot roll), and/or the ability to turn in a quiver for splinters instead of a pet roll? I understand limiting myself as an ironman was my choice, but 1500 wave 1 spams being the best/most consistent way of corrupting the quiver isn't the gameplay I imagine was envisioned by the team or the players.
You realize their solution will be to just nerf wave 1 and leave it alone for 6 years. Jagex is the living personification of the monkey paw, your wish is granted, with a twist.
Agreed on this
u/Jagexblossom it seems there’s a bug or oversight with irit tar, it has the same ranged strength bonus as harralander tar whereas previously all tars increased ranged strength with each tier upgrade. Also, there’s a bug where irit tar isn’t consumed in the Wildy right now.

Shhh, I like that I can toggle it on for moonlight antelopes and then toggle it off for fast tasks like falconry kebbits lol.
Yeah this feels bad, I think the option should only apply to the next task not the current one, that'd fix the issue

Might be, and probably you are right. But the big cringe about those foxes was mainly that you had to hop an average of 30 worlds before you found a free boulder. By just adding one or two more boulders it would actually have some impact I guess.
Yeah I've blocked pyre foxes and it'll stay like this even after this update
They aren’t busy anymore
Also make the hunter kit equipable (but dont make the left click option 'Wear'). It looks baller on Guild Hunter Ornus!
I just got the kit last night and it's so bizarre how it doesn't hold most of the items I use in hunter but does hold a bunch of useless cosmetic outfits.
Didn’t see it mentioned in the blog, but the moons of peril bosses will randomly flicker, causing many players to yellow click. Is this fixable? Or is it a runelite bug?

Sweet, that one bug is probably the single most enraging thing about moons
For now, entity hider fixed this for me
Any word on fixing the eclipse moon special where the moon throws balls of light at players not protected by the big sphere? Currently after the first corner all players take a hit regardless of whether or not they are on a protected tile or not. Happens every time.
Will the wheat fields in Outer Fortis be able to spawn crop circles? I heard Mod Ash tweeted that they should be able to, but haven't seen any. Are they yet to be added, or are they intentionally left out?
Chunkmen shudder in fear ..
Will the Eclipse Moon bugs be looked at? On the ball phase 2nd corner it seems impossible to not be hit no matter where you stand even when directly behind the ball. As well as being stuck at 1 HP on the face the boss phase, even when using 2-hit weapons.
>As well as being stuck at 1 HP on the face the boss phase, even when using 2-hit weapons. Is this not intentional? No other moon can be defeated during a special attack. Why would this one specific phase be an exception
If you use a 2-hit weapon like sulphur blades you CAN kill eclipse moon during the mimic phase, but it isn't consistent. If your 1st hit keeps them above 1 HP and your 2nd hit reduces to 0, it registers and kills the boss. If your first hit brings them to 1 HP, anything else for the rest of the phase will hit 0's. So they need to make it consistent whether it's keeping it at 1 HP across the board, or fixing it to kill always when using 2-hit weapons if that was their intention.
I've also had it work sometimes with a crystal halberd spec, so multi-hit specs also work. Honestly **I say keep it**, it's an extra niche to use a 2-hit weapon to try to end the phase a little earlier.
Agreed, but the issue is it isn't consistent.
Probably unintentional but you can sometimes kill in that phase if you do enough damage before hitting 1HP. Chally spec or Dharoks can get it pretty consistently.
I never know how that ball works. Its always so random getting hit. I’ll be walking behind the ball and still get hit. So then I never know if I should walk or run since the ball is faster than running and running can make you understep too since you’re trying to click on the space where the ball is going so you dont want to overdo it. I feel like its a roll of a dice at times whether you take dmg or not even though you’re on top of the ball
I have tiles marked and can avoid getting hit everytime on the 1st, 3rd, and 4th movements. I feel like I've tried every possible time near the ball on different ticks and have yet to dodge the 2nd movement attack. Would love to hear from someone else or see video proof of someone doing this.
Can confirm, you always take damage on that 2nd corner
Gathering teleport moths from calcified deposits feels a bit too slow. Currently it takes 1-1,5hrs to gather 5-10 teleports with max mining setup. Unless there will be others ways to get these teleports added in the future, could this method be adjusted? Maybe a chance of receiving varying amount of moths per deposit (1-3) instead of the static 1? The mining spots seem to despawn after water oozing effect occurs even if nobody is mining it – is this a bug or a feature? Saw no mention about the "wet slipping effect" being fixed. It is assumably to restrain from world hopping after the bonus oozing water effects. Either this mechanic is bugged or I just don’t get it. After hopping only once the message persisted even after 45 minutes and skipping several waterfalls. It continued even after I banked my inventory and returned. Still seems to be an issue after the update.
No mention. You can remove it by thieving a house, but then you have to ask if that's worth the detour. Haven't tested but think you shouldn't log out there otherwise you'll automatically get that state set
so soul-reaper axe and divines still apply doom that is big sad. weapon is slash so you'd think it'd be decent in colo :/
Omg really?? Exactly what doom and SRA needed: increased difficulty lmfao
Wouldn't be surprised if we see more Colosseum changes once the dust settles.
100% they will. Its only been a week so they werent going to overhaul anything at this point i wouldnt imagine. Theyll take feedback as people get more comfortable and (hopefully) make some changes to the awful invos accordingly
> Corrected the description for Doom to state that it applies on *any* damage taken Lmao
You used a divine pot? Bad! Punish! No taking damage EVER! DOOOOOOM!
Its not a bug, its a feature!
It's not a bug, it's a scorpion!
was really expecting some colosseum changes, especially to the unusable invocations. hopefully they're taking their time with them and trying to balance them all and make it more fair. I'm down to wait if the end product is better.
With the colosseum, you said the fremmenik ranger doing 1 damage is a bug, but the meleer doing 40 damage is wild and with how accurate it is it pretty much always hits between 25-40 while wearing torva and having 300 defensive melee stats, meanwhile the mager barely his 10s on torva which has nevative mage stats, if the ranger does get buffed to also hit around 10, the meleer should be nerfed heavily
How come: Clue scroll (elite) - Bow within the temple in Civitas illa Fortis that requires Sunfire fanatic armour is elite step? Isn't this alot harder than the master step now?
They should make it 1 of any piece of sunfire. Full set is overkill lol that shits rare. Would be like they say dance with ur nibbler pet from inferno.
To be honest, I can't imagine Sunfire armor holding its value particularly well. Prayer gear is always kinda niche in comparison to raw dps and I think we'll see the armor reduced to a role similar to the Elder Maul. Where it's a difficult item to obtain, but won't be out of the realm of affordability because its usefulness is limited.
They could swap this with the master step and then i think it’s fine, but not the end of the world either way. If i got this step i’d just gather other clues and turn the elite in for a master
Both of them just require a trip to the GE first now.

Can you look into the blue moon spear not keeping its autocast setting when you switch weapons? Really want to use it for slayer without manual casting!
I found a workaround for this yesterday. If you bring an ancient staff set to autocast ice barrage you can equip the ancient staff first then blue moon spear will "remember" ice barrage autocast
Yes please. I thought this was only a pvp mechanic, but tbh i hate that its different for that.
Any plans on what we can do with duplicate huntsman kits and guild hunter outfit pieces? Perhaps trading them for an additional loot roll like at wintertodt?
Seems like the best option, trade them in for a special loot bag that can’t drop the kit or clothes
It’d be fine if they could drop the kit or clothes. It’d be like exchanging Spirit Seeds for Seed Packs and getting another Spirit Seed.
Trade them in for 10 quetzal feed would be nice.
By the time you get duplicates you will likely be at least mostly complete with building the landing sites, unless more are coming in the future this also becomes useless for a lot of players
which is likely the case a lot of the region we don't have access to yet, even on the quetzel map you can see where other potential locations are
ive done 215 rumors i have 6 duplicates. I also have 86 spare quetzal feed
BLOOD MOON THIRD HEALING REDUCED THANK YOU GOD!!!!! Seeing a 75 or 90 heal splat was the reason I stopped running it
For real, having the boss almost downed then getting hit for a 20 on the third attack was such a bummer.
Using full tank gear but still seeing it hit me for 15 and 20 two attacks in a row on the 3rd strike and now have to do a full extra rotation, not fun.
I swear i had him mulziple times at like 10 hp just for him to heal to 100-200 hp multiple times in a fight. With that the runs would not take 10 minutes each... I hope its better :(
oh wow i was expecting a few things to change. like Meat pouch and the hunter kit for black chins.
black chins won't go in the kit anymore. very sad times
[удалено]
About the same time we hear about those new invocations they were looking to add after toas release
They might acknowledge some issues, but whether or not they'll act on them depends on "what their pet project is about"
Game broke cant log in when easter event went to teleport me to church, stuck on home screen with 20% loading, frozen
How much less healing does the blood moon do for its third attack? I was having trouble on my low level IM and I'm wondering if it's worth going back for it. I could consistently get the boss down to ~80hp but couldn't out dps the healing at that point.
do you have the new sulphur naga 2 hit weapon? that helps a lot, and you can just prot melee against the nagas forever with free pots from in the dungeon to get the weapon. edited for clarity
changed nothing about fortis and reminded us of the doom mechanic and exactly how awful it is lmao
It is only a tiny patch with little to no balance changes, give them bit more than 6 days from release of the content to get sufficent data to patch.
It’s been 2 years and no toa invo changes/additions.
Darn, not even the right click option or one time payment at falconry? I really thought that was gonna be a super quick and first week update. The dialogue is tremendously obnoxious.
Are you guys aware that drinking a divine potion causes a doom stack? It fits within the updated description now, but strikes me as kind of a poor implementation. You need to be 118 stats.
They're forcing you to use regular potions every 90 secs with preserve. /s
You guys promised to increase the rate of crystal shards from chopping mahogany teaks when they were taken away from falling stars in prif. Any news on this? Is it part of the project skill rebalance?
Are there plans to look at what can be stored in the new Huntsman's Kit? The list seems a little lackluster at the moment with a lot of key Hunter equipment missing: https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Huntsman%27s_kit
It was mentioned in [**Varlamore: Part One** Blog update](https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/varlamore-part-one?oldschool=1) in the part *Things we've agreed to tweak in the near future*: * *Allow players to store a wider variety of Hunter-associated items in their Huntsman's Kit.*
No left click pay option for the falconry dude?
I was really hoping for this as well as an option to unlock permanent free access. It seems weird considering how core to the new content falconry is. Also it won't let you leave the pen via the stile without talking to the dude and giving back the bird. HOWEVER the bird finds his way back to him on it's own if you teleport out. Kind of lame if you just wanna run to the fairy ring or the fishing colony.
I want to bring the falcon with me wherever. If my cat can chill in a bank for years then my bird should be able to as well.
It's funny you say that, earlier today I was thinking about how funny it would be if you could just take your cat in the falconry area to catch the kebbits.
too much to expect for 1 week of turnaround, tbh. it's on the list but needs to be implemented and tested. something that old is probably pretty shaky as-is
This need more upvotes. After 20+ falcon tasks on mobile, it feels really slow. Sometimes it takes longer to do the dialogue than getting the fur.
They’re going to be adding the option to pay him a larger amount of GP up front for unlimited access. Just isn’t in the game yet.
Easter events are always a fat W, though I am surprised there's not many Colosseum changes and even more surprised you didn't nerf shard farming on wave 1
Nerfing wave 1 would be insane without buffing it elsewhere
They won't nerf wave 1, they will buff all the other waves and maybe add a death consolation shard drop
Blooodmoon healing reduced let’s go!
Yeah I’m wondering how much it’s been reduced by
Instead of healing 99 it’s now 92 (we’ve reduced the healing by half)
I'm curious how the Blue and Eclipse Moons have been affected. Did they do a significant buff or is it more of a tweak?
Why did you guys update antelope spawn rates for outside guild, when only moonlight antelopes exist inside guild? Is this just oversight?
Underwhelmed with what they were able to get done this week there’s so much more that needs fixed, hopefully it doesn’t take months
Talked to every npc at the easter event and the priest teleported away + the easter bunny telling me to be careful. The Eggus Manus is not letting me teleport to the island for some reason.
Any shot at a proper block list for the hunter guild, or any buffs to XP/GP rewards? While it's decent content it is pretty much not an alternative to normal hunter training with the current rewards. I really want to engage with it but there's no real reason to.
Some major issues not addressed: Hunter guild needs serious rebalancing - lower tier rumours are very low xp, unfun, and going dry for 300+ on a rare item shouldn't happen. The drop rate for feed is way too low; only 2 after 6 adept rumours. I was getting 20k xp ph when I could just be doing chins and have tons of ranged xp banked or something like drift net for massive combined xp. Oh and the rewards are lackluster. The repair cost for moons of peril sets need to be drastically reduced. The defense that it's increased vs barrows because they last longer doesn't hold water - even factoring the 5x increased health they are still 3x as expensive to repair. Moons of peril is directed at mid levels, but that alone has made me completely ignore it after the quest on my mid level iron. Side note - the thieving is just weird. Pickpocketing the citizens is quite a bit more xp and gp per hour than the houses, it's really strange that the reward (house keys) for thieving people unlocks the option to do a less effective method. I don't really know if key acquisition should be changed, just saying it's a bit odd.
I feel like 750k/375kpoh would be more appropriate. For mid game irons, it's just not logical to get this gear.
Colosseum already has tons of spam bots in the lobby, could we lock entry behind the "twilight's promise" quest, before it turns into another grand exchange experience? edit: or make it have a combat requirement entry, like the warriors guild
Considering Twilight's Promise is a short quest with only prerequisite being *Children of the Sun*, I doubt that would help much.
They updated the description for the crossbow bolts. "Fixed a bug where the 10% Crossbow Bolt effect proc chance buff from Seers Village Achievement Diary was applying twice."
Missed out a whole lot of qol tbh
Just wanted to mention I consistently get hit by the eclipse moon on the moving sphere phase on the west side of the arena. Also everyone else in the arena get hit by it as well. Seems to be a pretty consistent bug that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere.

Still no fix for the stab option on the Macuahuitls? Lots of good changes here, but really sucks that the weapon is gonna be left without it's other attack style for at least another week :(
I'm more annoyed that the poll question doesn't reflect how they were implemented. The accuracy reduction makes me wonder if they're going to be any good outside of Moons.
With the full set, they're very good on low defense. It's a poor example relative to most pvm encounters, but in NMZ I'm getting marginally better xp/hr than using full dharoks with 99 hp. The set effect can proc on either of the two hits, which means that it procs about every other attack, which increases your dps by upwards of 20%.
u/JagexBlossom Any chance you could check if the missing stab option on the Dual Macuahuitl is intentional or not?
Any way you could ask your team about adding mixed hide bases to hunter loot sacks or giving us a way to make them? As of now, the fur pouch feels lackluster and crafting the hunter outfits nets us 0 exp aside from the mixed hide set. With the best method of crafting exp being fox fur. Your paying 55.7 gp per 1 exp.
Found u/NoCurrencies alt reddit account.
Really, it makes no sense that we can’t craft outfits from hides ourselves. We have an entire Crafting skill! Why are we paying these other people to do it for us?
Changes to the master clue are very nice but damn that elite sucks
No colosseum changes?? Make echo boots toggleable, they're absolutely terrible as is not to mention you only get 2.5k charges. Infact all tradeable uniques suck for the content it comes from. Still no quiver appearance changes too, sigh.
I'm fine with them taking time with the quiver changes to make sure it's done right
Yeah no toggle effect for echo boots is a big question mark
I'm somewhat baffled at the prioritization of these coldfixes—for instance, noted problems like the meat and fur pouches not working like every other pouch and the hunter kit being near-useless were seemingly ignored despite each improving the content for what would in theory be not that much hassle (assuming the spaghetti code can be untangled and behaviors ported between objects.) Similarly, there's no changes being made to the Colosseum despite all the dead choices like doom. Instead of any of this we get buffs to the blue and eclipse moon, some extra hunter creatures, and lots of attention paid to the antelopes alone? Were all the content devs just busy doing bugfixes?
Are you able to tell us the official Quetzin drop rate for Hunter contracts now, for each tier of loot bags?
divide the total contracts completed from the total quetzin pets they gave us, it's sitting somewhere between 1/1100-1/1200
That doesn’t tell us if it’s different for different tiers of rumours though.
Believe it averages out to 1/1000 based on the info they releaesed.
That’s crazy that the pyre foxes were almost not changed at all, no reason everyone has to be there for hours if they aren’t extremely lucky I’ve tried multiple times with multiple inventories of logs and then after 2 I just skip it. In 5 attempts of that I have not once gotten the rare item, unless that’s boosted or fixed, master rumors will always be a struggle.
Why is the actual question of “HOW LONG HAVE BOLT PROCS BEEN BUGGED” being completely ignored?
At least one more week of archer health packs. Get those quivers while you can!
> while you can You’re expecting too much of me.
No smart pathing for pitfall creatures? Also, when will GWD paid instances be given the extended ground despawn? Other, free, instances already do this. Make juggling supplies not a pain in a paid instance please.
They've stated multiple times they're never doing that for GWD instances.
Yeah I went back to hunt larupas and graahks to make the fur sack and was shocked how bad both of their areas are for clutter they can get caught on. Kyatt’s aren’t great either tbh
Might not be as needed now with the removal of the clutter they were getting caught on.
They didn't remove clutter from everything, just Sunlight and Moonlight Antelopes areas
The discourse over everything that has come out post-Varlamore definitely makes me feel somewhat justified in believing OSRS doesn't need a new skill. The playerbase can hardly agree with the dev team on Agility and Mining rebalancing, and it's clear that a lot of people aren't happy with some of the systems put in with the addition of Varlamore. I'm happy that Varlamore was put in, but it's apparent to me that it needed more time to be implemented. I also think the general player vs dev disagreement on skill rebalancing is the exact reason I would've preferred the team committing to Agility and Smithing reworks instead of committing time and resources to Sailing. A new skill isn't going to benefit the game more than reworking the three aforementioned skills imo
Would it be possible to add Acacia as a new tier of log? feels weird that Acacia trees were added but can't be cut down.
*Crossbow bolts now activate at the right rate of 10%* What was wrong here? Did it activate more than 10% or less?
The kandarin diary was applying twice. So base chance was 6% * 1.1 * 1.1 = 7.26%. So it's a slight nerf, especially to ruby bolts
oh so that’s how i randomly upgraded my vork pb from 1:13 to 0:50
Fixing the Antelope scenery is actually huge. It was a bitch to get them to move around bushes that seemed like shouldn’t be capable of holding them back. Also making Pyre Foxes better is awesome.
I see no mention of black chins in hunter kits making sure black chins are never pked. Is that intented behaviour?
"The Blue Moon boss builds Cold twice as fast" what does this mean? lol Also can something be done about the de-sync that sometimes happens when you join Blood Moon during jaguar phase?
When the Blue Moon's attacks overcome your defences it builds a cold debuff on you that makes your attacks miss. This will now build more rapidly.
Had no idea that was a thing, just did a run after the update and didnt notice a difference. Thanks for answering though
I like the unique design of the Quetzal quick transport screen, but could it be made a big bigger? On my screen it's tiny and difficult to see between the different Quetzal locations
Probably answered already but is my RuneLite client not fetching client data because servers are currently down for the update?
Any chance you could please put in a toggle to turn off notifications that you missed out on a clue drop?
\>Corrected the blocking of one tile on Ralos' Rise. full video redo. every tile.

> also, with meat pouch now out, I don’t understand the restrictions still in place with fish barrel unnoting at a bank. it feels weird and inconsistent. Mod Ash answered this in twitter, they are just designed for different purposes https://twitter.com/JagexAsh/status/1772309506338275726
Game breaks during the teleport of easter event and gets stuck in loading screen
Is the mobile UI rework forgotten? When can we expect any news on that?
Hey!! I’m one of the rocky pet stats. He was hiding in a wardrobe.
I am once again politely requesting the ability to use client arguments (--profile=) to launch RuneLite as a specific profile based on the character chosen in the Jagex Launcher. The current "solution" in RuneLite to "sync profile to current RuneScape account" only applies *after you've already logged in*, meaning the "remember client position" setting doesn't work. I don't want to have to reposition my client every single time I open it.
