This link doesn't seem to be working for me. The in game announcement link didn't work either.

edit: works now

Might have been traffic related as I posted this here just as I sent the in-game broadcast. Glad it's working now though!

I wish it was the first proposal that just area locked clues, but this beats how it is right now by miles, very welcome update.

I don't think we'll be making the same mistake for the next League, but the removal of juggling seemed to be the fairest solution in what has been a really difficult decision to make.

Thanks, looking forward to having fun with clues again! You guys do a lot and sometimes have to make hard decisions that not everyone will 100% love, so just though I'd say I appreciate the effort! :)

Good luck with your clues and thank you!

How does this interact with clues already in inventory? If I have a clue in my bank with 1 step completed and then the update goes live tomorrow, can I drop that clue and have the step still be completed?

Yep, any clue steps you have before the change will be stored after the change and count towards your next casket.

Should’ve just stuck to your guns and said no major changes. Our bad for balancing clues the way we did. We’ll take all your feedback into account for future leagues.

Horrible precedent to make large changes in a temporary game mode due to complaints from people on one side of an issue.

After a lot of discussion, and I mean a lot, we determined this was the fairest solution seeing as all players are currently able to juggle clues regardless of which Relic they chose, it's just that it's not a great experience having to do it.

We'll be doing our best to avoid situations like this in future Leagues that's for sure.

How is removal of juggling fair to those who picked TS so they can complete clues by juggling?

There are only two “fair” options imo. 1) don’t change clues or 2) if you must change, give both relics to everyone (this is admittedly less fair, but still a compromise).

After lots of discussion, we decided that seeing as everyone has the ability to juggle clues before the change regardless of which Relic you picked, this was the least impactful to what is currently possible within the League vs what will be possible after the change.

I'm sorry we couldn't combine the two Relics. It really wasn't an easy call to make.

A lot of the solutions relied on changing Relics or adding new features, whereas this just removed the requirement to juggle which everyone has the ability to do regardless of which Relic was chosen.

It's by no means perfect but seemed to be the fairest option with the least impact on what is currently possible vs what will be possible after the update.

With all due respect Ayiza, this solution is not fair at all. This is a huge buff to clue completion rates for US, while barely improving them at all for TS. Please consider giving TS an additional buff to narrow this gap; the reasoning of "we don't want to rebalance relics mid-league" does not apply here as you've already broken that rule by making clue juggling redundant.

It's by no means a perfect solution, but comparing what is possible currently vs what is possible after the change, this seems to be the least impactful overall whilst still improving the player experience for everyone.

I'm sorry we couldn't do more without causing further issues :(

'least impactful'.

You mean the one that'll help the content creators and their followers more? Let's be real. Jagex stuck to their guns until streamers started complaining on their streams about clues a week ago.

This basically negates ANY reason for taking TS and if we hadn't been told time and time again by mods that NOTHING would change and completely lied to, I would never have even considered taking TS over the now vastly superior US.

Jagex gave the Slayer Relic a clue buff. Why can't they give the Clue Relic a slayer buff? Literally give everyone with TS a 1:25 chance of spawning a superior on task and you would have ZERO complaints from anyone.

As it stands, even getting 200Mil Slayer XP with the TS relic won't get us 50 superiors killed task. That's broken and should be fixed as much as clues.

I actually haven't had chance to catch many streams since the League released, but I can appreciate why you'd think that way. We've spent a lot of time gathering feedback from multiple sources to validate if a change needs to be made, which is why we've been so focused on talking about it with you all.

A lot of things could have been done differently this League, our stance on clues being one of them. All I can do is apologise to all of the TS users that feel they've pulled the short straw with this. We will do better for the next League, especially regarding Relic imbalance.

It seems to only proc for certain players. I have been at 100% favour everyday and collecting and nothing happens u/JagexAyiza

I believe this should be fixed in next week's game update, sorry for the time it's taken!

Honestly the biggest shock was when I realised how long it had been since you left... I swear I "just came back to Runescape after a long break" and now I've been playing OSRS (albeit with some breaks) for longer than any stint in any other version of the game since I first played it in the school library in 2001/2.

Ah an absolute classic. You take a long break and realise you can never truly quit this game :D But yeah it's crazy to think it was almost 2 years ago now... Feels like yesterday I was still in the office with the team! It's a bit different now with everything being virtual, but it feels so good to be back.

Hope you're enjoying your time playing!
