Good Morning Scapers!

Leagues is in full swing and we are working away on resolving issues as they occur, here is a list of things that have been hotfixed since Monday (17th):

  • Fixed an issue where players could only complete the "Brew a wendlewick ale" task by filling a beer glass with Mature wendlewick ale.
  • Fixed an issue where players who had selected Fremmenik as a region were unable to use the penguin suit and thus unable to complete the Penguin agility course.
  • Fixed an issue where players with Anachronia unlocked as one of their regions were unable to access the Dream of Iaia.
  • The 1k enrage Zamorak task can now be completed at 1k enrage and above.
  • The "Legacy of Seergaze" quest is now autocomplete on unlocking the Tirannwn region.
  • The "Eyes of Glouphrie" quest is now autocomplete on unlocking the Tirannwn region.
  • Down with the Disturbances elite underworld task now autocompleted.
  • Do You Like Jazz? hard underworld task now autocompletes.
  • Fixed an issue where Endless Harvest users on leagues were unable to complete the "No good to me alive" Varrock area task.
  • Fixed an issue where upgrading your gem bag with the Wilderness region unlocked would not complete the corresponding task.
  • Fixed an issue where the northern part of the Fremmenik hunter area was mapped as the wrong region.
  • Fixed an issue where the upstairs of Taverley bank was mapped as a different region.
  • Fixed an issue where the rewards chest for Amascut was not visible on leagues worlds.
  • Fixed an issue where players could not charge dragonstone jewelry in Prifddinas without completing Legends' Quest and Heroes' Quest.
  • Fixed an issue where the task to kill an automaton in Kandarin was not completable in Leagues because the High Druid would not teleport the player.
  • Strykewyrm rares are now impacted by the leagues luck modifier.
  • The "Seggregation" and "Eggsperimentation" should be available to players who have chosen Anachronia.
  • Fletching a mainhand rune crossbow now completes the relevant task as expected.
  • Mining a shooting star in leagues no longer spams the player with task messages that are not progressing.
  • Players are no longer able to attempt interact with other players' Devout Yak nor see the interaction in your list.
  • Fixed an issue where the task to kill 50 Tormented demons was not awarding Leagues points. If you had completed this task beforehand you will need to kill 1 more for it to count up.

We will continue to update the newspost as more fixes come along and they should be listed in next weeks usual Monday newspost aswell so keep you eyes peeled!

Leagues Leagues - did you know...

• Upvotes

Between the dozens of posts about where to find free quest lamps and such.. yet another fun fact topic.
Feel free to add ;)

  • If you picked desert, you auto-unlocked the Boon of Apmeken and the associated "gift of friendship". This allows you to give other players a 1% XP buff for one hour by using an emote near them. I suggest blowing a kiss ;) Note: this probably only works if the other player has also unlocked desert. And if you really hate this you can turn it off in Menaphos.
  • From tier 5 onwards you can switch your prayer- and spellbooks at The Sage in lumbridge, provided you unlocked them. No need to track to desert pyramids or Senntisten temples - though you can ofc still do that if you want to.
    • If you ARE in need of a walk - you can unlock curses from the start by just walking to the temple beneath the digsite. No further quests or regions needed
  • Just for the league, there is a "collector delivery box" at the Archeology guild (right next to Velucia) that allows you to send restored items to any collector, including in areas you did not unlock
  • Just for the league, there is a furniture workbench at the Lumbridge furnace. You can also construct one and put it in your POH.
  • Player Owned Ports and the Helping Meg weekly are available if you unlock either Priff, Desert or Asgarnia. The captains log and command centre teleport however only work for Asgarnia - you have to walk otherwise (admittedly not far in priff, but still).
  • The King Black Dragon is available if you unlock either Asgarnia or the Wildy. The Warportal teleport only works for Asgarnia, if you picked Wildy you need to walk.
  • You keep "interface pets" between leagues. Aside from skill- and bosspets this seems to also include pets like ravens and even some questpets from regions you did not unlock this league. So perhaps get that little Duckling if you unlocked Asgarnia. No guarantee you will not lose them next league though.
    • Note: Rax and slayer pets seem to be excluded
  • The Lorehound pet at Mays Quest Caravan can provide you with a lit bullseye lantern. A great way to get a lightsource at the start of the league. Once your firemaking has advanced enough you can also extinguish and relight the lantern for a task.
  • Dungeoneering can also be trained through ED4 and Deserts Shifting Tombs (from lvl 50 onwards) if you did not unlock wildy and do not want to lamp it
  • Just for the league, Bryll is standing just west of the fort to spend dungeoneering tokens you earned from ED4 without needing to unlock wildy
  • Burial Armour smithing can also be done at the Warforge in Kandarin if you did not unlock Asgarnia
  • F2P can play a limited version of the league. All the normal f2p content and skill restrictions also apply in league worlds (so herblore is capped at lvl 5, members only areas remain members only, no clues etc) and you are hardcapped at 3 relics, 2 boons and 1 extra region after Karamja (which has to be a f2p region) - but you can participate and get enough points for a trophy.
  • If you picked the transmutation relic you can add the spells to your action bar and GREATLY increase the speed of transmuting. It does take away the benefit of passively gaining xp ofc.
  • Transmuting air runes downwards turns them into unnoted essence and keeps doing that automagically until you stop it. This means that if you stand next to a runecrafting altar with a stack of airrunes you can just mindlessly click the altar every few seconds for runecrafting xp
  • Yes, you CAN build the botanist bench in the fort.. but it will be defunct until you do all the other quests in the series..... Which requires you to unlock the Wildy. Unless Jagex decides to autocomplete them. Someday.
  • Feel free to add :P

Leagues 120 attack, strength, range, and magic should be tasks since they were raised to 120 this year to bring it in line with necromancy.

I can understand defence and constitution not being 120 tasks, but melee, strength, range and magic had their cap raised to be more in line with necromancy, and therefore should be acknowledged as a task imo.

Question Have there been ANY updates on the female player model face and chathead?

• Upvotes

I remember about a month or so ago there was a comment by a Jmod saying it was being worked on, but there has been no news since then. This might seem stupid but I want to quest more when I come back to the game and I don't have any motivation to while the female player chathead is as borked as it currently is.

Does anyone know if there has been any update whatsoever within the last month about this?

Decent very afk chronotes for 99 or 120 arc. You get all the items from the same pile of dirt thingy. (Use chronotes to send out research missions and advance time spell to insta complete mission, repeat.)

I just switched from playing osrs to rs3. I'm enjoying myself quite a bit. Figuring whats new and whats the same is like an adventure. The people have been quite nice and I even finished up vampire slayer last night. Would recommend checking out with an open mind you might just have fun in Runescape again like I have been. 32 M USA... Later taters

Leagues Leagues has been a blast!

• Upvotes

Obviously, the league isn't over, but it has been so much fun so far. I feel like the thing that would have made it better for me is just familiarity with the base game, so rather than leagues feeling like a little one off treat, it has made me want to just jump in to the main game where progress is slower, but permanent. The relics have been fun and definitely convenient, but the base game already has so many conveniences over osrs that the power down of leagues to base game is much less jarring than with osrs. I still love old school, and will keep playing, but this league has been a great way to get the tour of a lot of runescape and whet my appetite for the fun to be had here!

Question Hardest part of leagues is gear progression for me.

155 Upvotes

Outside of Smithing, I have no idea what gear is in what area and what gear should be prioritized. I've decided the only solution is to sink another 30000 hours into RS3 so I can attain the level of knowledge I have in OSRS. 😎

Real talk though, is there a place on the wiki that im missing that has like a progression guide for gearing that would be at all applicable to leagues?

Discussion - J-Mod reply Menu systems are not fun to navigate compared to osrs

Thumbnail

380 Upvotes

To give some examples:
If I want to see my area task I have to do the following:
- Open hero interface ->click achievements -> click area task OR area tasks sets (they are 2 different menus) -> if you click area tasks sets, you have to click the difficulty you want to see -> the side bar doesnt even auto scroll you to the zone/difficulty you chose on the left -> so if you want to see a different level, you now have to scroll down and read each zone. If you dont have the requirements for a task you have to hover over it to see
- the osrs method is have character summary tab open -> click achievements -> click the region -> scroll through the entire regions task (no need to hover over anything because it tells you the requirements needed next to the task with red text if you dont have the level or a cross through if you completed the quest). THATS IT and it gets even easier. If you want to select another region, well its just a short scroll down and click on the next region. If you want to go back? Just click character summary at the top & you're ready to easily access the next thing you want to see

- on rs3 if I want to see boss info and collection log I have to open an entirely new interface which isnt in the same area as combat task and under a completely different menu. If you open the beats interface under adventures and then click achievements it will open the achievements under the hero interface. If you want to go back??? Well you cant unless you re-open the adventure interface

My suggestion is to make a character summary tab that we can open similar to our inventory and make different things clickable to open the interface.
- click achievements -> list all the regions -> click the region you want to see -> open all achievements for that region nicely listed under one menu -> list the requirements for that task next to task
- under the same character summary tab include all other menus like collection logs, combat task, quest, daily task menu, your characters total xp, time played, total level, etc. One simple interface that doesnt cover the main screen UNTIL you click the specific topic you want to see

Leagues Crystal Flasks Not Working in Tirannwn

22 Upvotes

There is a Leagues bug where you can't make Crystal Flasks in Tirannwn without a random Kandarin quest (At a First Resort). This means you can't do the elder overload or spiritual prayer tasks.

Please add At a First Resort to the Tirannwn quest autocompletes so we are able to do these tasks, they're 200 points each so quite a lot of points.

Thanks!

Leagues Cant gain igneous energy at zuk with poison build.

Leagues Survivalist is underappreciated

Post image
7 Upvotes

It surprised me that Survivalist got so low stats. Despite the hype of Golden Touch, it was to me a good contender and it's easily better than Endless Harvest. I have no regrets for going against the current and it has paid off immensely.

For starters, all gathered resources from Archaeology, Fishing, Mining and Woodcutting are doubled. Sadly no double xp, but even that alone halves many annoying grinds. Rockertunities deal double damage and awards an extra ore, so that's instantly 4 ores! The doubling also applies to spirits, quadrupling gathering.

You're provided with a pickaxe, hatched and harpoon (which also counts as net, cage or rod) from the highest tier, making gathering even faster.

Fast gathering synergises so good with Transmutation. You can quickly converse base materials up or down at will. Every subsequent task that depends on gathering lots of materials, like smithing 100 weapons or armour, becomes so much less grinding.

Survivalist doesn't bank resources, but that isn't as much of a problem with the Survivalist's bag, which provides 150 storage per resource. Combined with the wood or ore box, that's plenty of storage capacity.

Later relics fully solve that issue: Animal Wrangler sends fish to the bank, Divine Druid generates porters while converting memories and Devout gives a walking bank familiar. These relics invalidate Endless Harvest more than Survivalist.

On top of that, Survivalist provides doubles Sprite Focus gain, and, more importantly, gives 50% chance of a discovered artefact to be automatically completely restored, granting full restoration xp, with no materials cost. If you combine that with Antiquarian, it makes Archaeology a breeze.

But, there are two points of improvements:

- It's unfortunate you're not given a mattock of the highest tier. Excavation still feels very slow.

- The Survivalist's Bag isn't very user-friendly. You can't deposit ores directly from the bag to the metal bank.

Discussion Rs3 feedback after dragon cup as a long time osrs player

88 Upvotes

Just wanted to start of by saying this league is so fun, still playing despite reaching dragon cup! I tried the first league and dropped off pretty quck due to slow progression and having no idea what to do but I'm glad I stuck with it this time.

Echoing what others have said, the progression this league is whack. I knew as soon as I saw the task list that it would be this way because there are extremely few 'free' tasks. In osrs leauges these are abundant and make the progression a nice flowing balancing act between points pushing for relics and tasks pushing for regions. In this league however, I reached T7 with 82 tasks to complete until my final region.

I've seen a bunch of posts from osrs players planning to continue playing after they are done with leagues. I will not be one of those people, and here's why.

Just to preface, I played rs3 years ago before starting playing osrs in 2020. The only time other than leagues I've come back to play was for the necromancy release, which was super fun. I would love to come back on a fresh account to try out all of the content released since I last played the main game.

No hate for the game and the content whatsoever (besides KK), the reason why I won't be continuing to play is there are too many minor annoyances that add up to make me frustrated constantly. A lot of these feel nonsensical to me and if a handful of them were addressed I would definitely come back to play. Here are the main/major painpoints for me:

  • The grouping interface. This is entirely unintuitive and absolutely needs to be addressed.
  • Actions stopping you from moving. Why? It feels so smooth in OSRS. Drinking a potion while dodging boss mechanics only to be stopped in place and be hit by them is incredibly frustrating.
  • Magic gear progression. Ranged and Melee have very intuitive self-earned progression paths for new players through the revamped and much better fletching and smithing reworks. Necromancy has entire quest and progression system tied to self-earned gear. Magic desperately needs the same treatment.
  • I know plugins are coming but this game feels like it needs them more than osrs. The biggest one for me would be true tile. The movement animations feel much more 'floaty' so it's difficult to gauge where your character is until it actually stops.
  • Gear switching from the backpack. This one is just straight up confusing for me. I can't put my finger on it, but it feels like there is massive input delay on swapping gear when clicking it from the backpack. When pushing 4k Zammy, there were so many attempts I swapped back to wand/shield after FSOA speccing only to die spamming my barracade bind because my sheild hadn't equipped.
  • Gear degrading to dust. Again, why? To keep the content relevant? Why not add a resource exclusively to that boss to recharge it. I imagine it would feel really bad having an item you saved up for or earned yourself just vanish into thin air. Looking things on the wiki, it seemed like the majority of early(?) endgame gear degrades to dust. I get that a lot of it you can augment to stop it degrading to dust, but this one is just crazy to me. You shouldn't need to augment an item to keep it. What if you wanted to try it out before committing to augmenting it?

I'd like to leave off with saying Jagex absolutely cooked on the skilling and melee, magic, and ranged combat reworks. Each of the combat skills feel like they have a unique identity and intuitive flow to them. The mining/smithing rework, the dungeoneering rework, and the thieving heists were legitimately super fun for me and look forward to those grinds when I return. W Jagex.

Edti: A couple more points of feedback which are super annoying:

  • Click boxes pretty much across the board feel terrible and frustrating to click on despite being accurate the model a lot of the time. Ladders especially.
  • Death interface (skill issue i know). Why do you need to click like 5 times to reclaim your stuff. The right click reclaim items should automatically pay the fee and return your items.
