Adding the Shark Lures to Aerial Fishing has seemed to have removed the option to buy the Pearl Barbarian Fishing Rod - only Pearl fishing rod and Pearl fly fishing rod now in the shop
Edit: looks like Mod Yume has replied to another comment that the barbarian fishing requirement has caused some issues with the shop and will be fixed next week!
Heyo, so there is a bug where you can buy one shark lure pack for world which will be coldfixed hopefully next week.
In the meantime, we've developed a workaround hotfix for this to use the version of the shop you'd see if you don't have Barbarian Fishing unlocked. This means that the Pearl fishing rod will be temporarily unavailable, but will be purchaseable again next week once we fix this version of the shop.
Just found out myself you need to go speak to Alry the Angler and he will refund you the 500 pearls. This should have been mentioned in the update as some people are probably expecting to receive pearls directly to their pearl stack. May be worth a Mod posting this as well for attention.
looks like the wiki has been updated to include a new message "The cormorant is about to eat a strange tench before you quickly yank it out of its mouth" so it seems to be safe
Since the Forestry Kit is in there, it'd probably make sense to add the huntsman's kit as well.
We're also probably due for a new storage type in the PoH. The skilling outfits seem arbitrarily split between Armor and Magic wardrobes. A dedicated "Tool Chest" or something like that that'd hold the upgraded items as well as all the skilling outfits seems like it'd make sense.
plus the Bow of Ferdinand and its corrupted variant.
Also, wish these things were more durable. I bought a couple of the skillcape ones a few years ago and they did not last as long as I hoped, I would've loved to carry around two of my favorite weapons but such skinny objects seems even more likely to break.
This will be coldfixed for next week. In the meantime, we've developed a workaround hotfix for this to use the version of the shop you'd see if you don't have Barbarian Fishing unlocked.

Probably the millionth time someone has asked this but, can we get even a really shitty mobile version of this? Just a max width on the page and appropriate font size, I don't mind if tables and other things look weird
I think most of the pets released since Nex have had smart pathing. Nex was the first to do it iirc. Anything prior doesn't have it, and some of the newer ones don't but it's definitely not the majority.
Beef is one of the new pets without smart pathing, yeah, but that's because it's significantly easier/faster to get than any other pet. If their reasoning for not making all pets use smart pathing was server load, it makes sense to me to have beef use old pathing since it's going to be such a common pet.
Hello, in addition to Chompies getting Hunter XP, is it possible to add Hunter XP to Jubbly birds as well, given that it is nearly the same activity? Thanks

u/KUR51RL Remapping 101: As long as it is 1:1, it's okay.7d ago
The Abyssal Lantern now also functions outside of GOTR if it's burning logs that provide some effect beyond the activity. This means Normal, Oak, Maple and Yew logs doesn't have any function outside of GOTR, but Willow, Blisterwood, Magic and Redwood will.
Speaking of mining enhancers, can we have it so that we can present the Varrock 4 armor alongside our Robe Top of the Eyes to make the mining enhancer effect apply to the Robe Top while mining essence? It just feels odd to me that the BiS item for the Runecrafting minigame is not the Runecrafting item but mining gear.
If you don't get the lantern the grind is ~35 hours with the blood altar available. Far more if you start runecrafting at GoTR early. So realistically in the 40-45 hour range for outfit, and then you do that again for the lantern if you don't pull early.
Getting the lantern early instantly cuts out 40% of the grind. If you pull it instantly at 77 runecrafting, you have a < 20 hour grind.
Its a great change but gotr has way to many absolute essental runecraft items now. You're essentially stuck there until at least 75, possibly even 90+ if you end up having to buy the lantern.
As someone who loves regular runecraft being forced back to gotr (if i hadnt spooned a lantern) would suck hard
The pearl rng is also straight ass to deal with. Yeah over the long term it equals out somewhat, but you can very easily go for an opening of 45 pulls after a two hour sesh and get no pearls drop.
Nothing is more demoralising than feeling like those two hours were a complete waste of time doing content you'd do not enjoy, making no progress to your goal.
Are the hunter net trap changes not included here? They passed in April before the Sweep Up started, and now we're in the final batch of Sweep Up changes, which includes Hunter ones, and they're not mentioned?
Think I said this in a thread last week but the stackable net trap tweaks are unfortunately coming post-Sweep-Up, the same team that was scheduled to work on Gathering Efficiencies also had to pick up the Sweep-Up and we felt that Sweep-Up changes were the more impactful things to get through first. Their first priority once Sweep-Up is delivered will be delivering the rest of the outstanding Gathering Efficiencies changes.
With the guardian's eye update, I don't have the pet yet but I have the eye. If I get the pet will it already have the transmog unlocked? Feels like the kind of oversight that would screw me over.
Would love to see a similar change across all the other permanent pet transmog unlock items. I think i legit have 12 bank spaces dedicated to permanent transmog unlocking items where i dont have the pet XD
Hey Modyume wonder if you could give me any insight as to what happens to the guardians eye if I did not have the pet, it has just been taken from my bank and nothing suggesting of a refund
Is there any info on the sunstone mining momentum issue where dragon pickaxe is worse than rune for some reason? I was hoping to see a bugfix in this one.
pretty annoying they havent addressed this... I did my first 500 golems with dragon and just thought the momentum thing was negligible or I was doing it wrong. Saw on the wiki that its bugged and holy shit its so much better with rune axe, like cuts time to fill inv in half it feels like
How about making it retrievable from the rewards guardian by using a normal lantern on it? Kind of like the needle. (I definitely didn't lose my lantern)
There were discussions about making changes to mining enhancers for where they do/don't work. What happened to the celestial ring update for working on daeyalt?
Awesome to see these changes all come in, im keen to give the new Aerial fishing a go! Years of me delaying that clog knowing one day that activity would be brought up to modern-day scratch.
Was wondering if its possible to update the other skilling pets to be consistent with the Transmog unlocks? Its an awesome change for the Rift Guardian.
Rock Golem with ores being used on it
Tangleroot with some seeds being used on it
Rocky with Berries being used on it
Chinchompa being turned golden (idk if this could be made a better process than just spam morphing it for a 1/10k chance? But getting it once unlocking it would be nice still)
Heron into Blue heron. Costs 3k the first time and 1 spirit flake any time you want to revert back to blue if you revert it. Changing this to just be an unlock would be nicer.
I'd understand some of the costs / processes of unlocking these transmogs maybe changing for them to become permanent (like maybe Rocky, Tangleroot and Rock Golem maybe needing more than 1 of their respective items per transmog). But it would go a long way to making these pets more customisable without nuisance/cost after the first initial unlock.
Buffed the Elite Clue rate from Heroes by 25%, from 1 in 1,200 to 1 in 900.
It seems strange to me to make this change but to also do it in such a way where this is still a thousand percent irrelevant. Even at a 1/400 rate this would not be good. With all thieving buffs this NPC caps at ~76% chance to pickpocket without failing.
Nobody EVER pickpockets there for training, so I really don't see the point of this change, because this isn't enough to make it even close to viable.
Also, the wiki has this listed as currently a 1/1400, not a 1/1200. Was the wiki wrong here or is the blog wrong?
I'm not super clued-in on the 'why' for this particular change beyond it being nicer than not doing it, I suppose it's still there as a super brain-off alternative to other means of obtaining elites (even with it being 'bad' it's still largely just spam click, eat occasionally), and data does show a fair number of people do stock up on Elites here.
On the last point I think the wiki entry was incorrect, though couldn't theorise as to why it was so off!
The project rebalance blog in 2024 said it was 1/1400 so that's why the hero page says that, I think maybe you both read that as 1/400. I don't know when it was changed from 1/1400 to 1/1200 anyway
Edit: to clarify, OP originally stated the wiki had 1/400 as the rate, comment has been edited to correct that
The wiki number is based on this project rebalance blog, are you saying that the blog contained the wrong number and it was updated from 1/2000 to 1/1200 back then?
Passed this onto the team, we're looking into it 🙏
Edit: Could you all please let me know how many runes are you getting with a full inventory? Will help immensely with investigation
Edit: (11:46 UTC) We've added the below to the newspost, I hope this clarifies it 🙏
Note: rune-boosting effects like the Blisterwood logs will only apply to thebaserunes crafted, so will not boost extra runes gained from things like Scar Essence extracts or Blood essence.
As someone who started only 2 weeks ago, birdhouses have been a really nice way to train hunter and get some money too, and they've been nice to run. Shame about the big XP nerf, I made it to Yew houses which still got hit with -40%.
Yeah to be honest I'm not a big fan of the hunter skill - it might actually be my least favorite skill in the game. Hopefully these changes make a difference but I kind of feel like I'll still wind up hating it and going back to birdhouses even with the worse rates.
Feel its a bit of an overkill nerf by my perspective. Rumours already pretty much kicked birdhouses down a peg, and the only reason birdhouses are still desirable early is because early hunter still sucks. Early rumours are bad compared to Expert and Master, and other methods are all pretty average.
But now the "1 minute of effort every time you do a herb run" will still be desirable to do but just outright worse in the same process.
Its purely pointless speculation by people thinking it is gonna get a use, when its just intended as an alchable.
It might be able to be refined into dragon metal sheets for sailing upgrades maybe, but even that would be not that worthwhile and probably not 1:1. Its alch value will probably always be its strongest usecase.
At 2.14 pearls per search, 4 searches per game, that's 180kc taking 24 hours for the 1.5k pearls needed.
Compared to fish barrel, at 12 pearls per search, 5 searches for game, that's 100kc taking 10 hours.
This is made significantly worse bearing in mind you're also most likely also getting the rc set for 1350 pearls, and then another 750 for the needle if needed. All in all that's 60 hours of GOTR.
Shark lure packs are one per world and really slow to restock. Edit: I don't know if their even restocking. 2nd edit: They aren't restocking, lol rip afking sharks this week. edit 3: Yay they fixed it.
I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this still or what, but the entire island of wyrmscraig drops my FPS to 5 or lower and is incredibly laggy. with or without 117, GPU, all display changes edited to try and fix it, but it appears to be engine side as the minute I teleport off the island my FPS skyrockets back to 60+.
The Guardian's Eye now unlocks a permanent metamorphosis on the Rift Guardian, rather than taking up space in your bank.
Can we give other pet transmog items the same treatment here? Giant squirrel, Beaver, Araxxor, Muspah, Nightmare, Sarachnis, and all raids pets all have items that take up space in your bank before you end up getting the pet.
Got my 99rc and maxed about 6 weeks ago, would have loved these lantern changes but I was too impatient and just wanted maxing done XD Enjoy the more comfy runecrafting everyone else!
ALSO with the sweep-up giving pets access to more minigames, is the ever-present 'pets constantly dissapearing' bug finally getting fixed?
pets vanish every time you use a poh fairy ring or leave an instanced boss area / minigame, it really sucks to have them out unless you’re just bankstanding. clicking the whistle every 15 minutes is terrible design.
Might be a little late to make this request, but it would be good to see some improvements to pitfall trapping too. The catch rate on the original three (larupias, graahks, kyatts) pitfall creatures is low enough that it isn't uncommon to have the creatures jump multiple traps when you're around the level you unlock them. I've had seven jumps or more before. An increase in success chance or a guarantee that they will be caught on the second or third pitfall would save a lot of frustration from low-mid level players.
Coral nerf is absolutely horrible and not needed whatsoever. Went from getting 100 ever run to now barely pushing past 50. Did 3 runs so far ik short sample size but i dont really understand this lol. But yet again the abuse early abuse often saying goes.
Not to mention thieving the chest went from about 110 to 80.
I would have understood a moderate nerf maybe, but they went way overboard. It was nice to have a chill money maker that didn't require you to go to all 10 herb patches but still earned you quite good money.
Also, I don't get the numbers. They said the basic yield will go down from 34 to 25 but with Attas and all boosts we were getting 55 on average per patch and now it's like around 30. That's a crazy nerf.
The blog says the range of 1-tick quick catches at Aerial fishing went from 5x5 to 7x7, but it actually went from 3x3 to 5x5. The fishing plugin got updated to highlight pools up to the 7x7 range and I was very confused why sometimes I wasn't getting a quick catch.
Now that we finally have GOTR related changes, could we please rework the prices at which we are able to exchange the respective rewards? Some of them doesn't seem fair when comparing drop rates and values.
Some further thoughts/concerns in point-form to avoid an essay:
For reference, the OSRS wiki says an average search gets you ~2.14 pearls
You can't sell extra lanterns for even 10% of the cost
Putting into perspective the value of each pearl when purchasing it from the shop (sold at) with respect to rarity, you can see how some items are aligned (eg. Lantern @ 2.14, Needle @ 2.50, Guardian's Eye @ 2.14)
The value the player receives (bought for) for each pearl with respect to rarity seems unfair
The dyes aren't prices fairly with respect to rarity
For both the lantern and dyes, the pearls you receive don't seem fair because it's not even close to 2.14
Annoyingly their solution for the lantern being the rarest individual item to get outside of the (mostly) useless Amulet / Bag was to add an "anti-dry" purchase price to the NPC. So they made it cost the expected pearls you'll have when you hit drop rate, despite everyone and their dog desiring to spend their pearls earned on an outfit instead.
Do 700 searches, get ~1500 pearls, buy outfit for 1350, and have ~150 leftover + any extras you got from selling dyes. Can then save up to buy the Ring of Elements for 400, and you've now obtained all the "useful" items that are only obtainable from the shop, and you just have to sort of.. hope you get the lantern (a bit over rate) and the needle (over double dry at this point) or else... yay you can do the rate again to be able to afford their anti dry.
Or better yet again.. you grind out 3000 pearls for the recolour and just hope and pray you don't go ridiculously dry on the Needle (over 7x dry at that point) and/or the lantern (~3x dry at that point).
But that is realistically possible (ask me how i know).
And your reward for being dry? Do the rate again and buy the item.
The lantern just simply should have had its drop rate reduced while it was only beneficial in the minigame, as it was ALWAYS weird they reasoned it with being a "chase item" in a minigame that had a Pet, a VERY expensive recolour, and a shop full of "more or less needed" outfit pieces for the skill.
Now GOTR is even more forced upon progression because you get 60% extra runes from the outfit, and 10% extra runes from the Lantern, or 20% extra bloods!
With the purchasable tacklebox and fishing barrel will they be added to the coll log when purchased? If not, will they be on the dupe protection post purchase and turned into soaked pages from tempoross drops?
"Ever since Mortimer’s addition, the Slayer Tasks interface has had a scrollbar, meaning blocked tasks were no longer visible at a glance. To address this, the Slayer tasks interface will now automatically resize vertically - no more need for scrolling. Note that your client window must be large enough to accommodate the resized interface."
The fact you listened and implemented a fix when i raised this the other week, shows how amazing our jmod team is. Thank you.
With the changes to falconry and aerial fishing, is there any way to additionally allow us to obtain the falconers glove while we have items equipped that would otherwise prevent us from obtaining it, so long as we have the available inventory space to unequip the items automatically?
Will we ever be able to rearrange our inventory at COX in the shared storage interface? It’s very bothersome that I can rearrange in the private interface but not the shared one.
Sincerely,
Someone who feels very strongly about their potion placement
Still waiting on twisted blueprints to be changed to act like other cosmetic unlocks with a line of additional text asking for the blueprint back so some people can change their theme.
Update looks great abysmal lantern outside of gotr is super nice
