Fix is being worked on!

Have passed this one on to the team, appreciate you also checking across RuneLite and C++! Very helpful, what a bizarre bug...

I do not have the willpower to chase an RT EE in HCSSF :(

What about the regular drops? Are they good enough on their own, or is the gp/h boosted by the uniques?

Regular drops seem pretty serviceable to me - but will leave that up the the players!

Ah ha! I knew there were a few other instances but it's too early for me still to think about them. First time fighting muspah my friends and I definitely said that someone on the jagex team was a fan of Poe lol.

Pretty neat to see those influences in osrs.

Need an OSRS equivalent of the Feared to really get the blood pumping...

This is actually interesting, do jmods play the RS3 equivalents of quests/bosses while making the OSRS version or do they just go in pretty much blind?

We chat across teams, and with something as old as Araxxor we've got a decent bit of familiarity from back in the day, but our version is very different outside of some similarities with the likes of spawns

Ty Mod Goblin, I just hit 90 slayer so I'll be slaying Araxxor in no time :D I'm eager for some aranea boots though, so I'll be chomping wild pies and putting my venator bow to good use

Get those last two levels done! They absolutely fly by once you're able to just get in the flow of it!

I'm not a dev so no! But Arcane (responsible in-part for my POE addiction) is infinitely more knowledgeable about POE than me and you can definitely see that influence in places (Akkha's memory game/Maven, Zebak's waves/Exarch, Tasakaal Trials/Ultimatum), think parts of Muspah regarding keeping the arena 'clean' when it comes to where you're placing spikes might be inspired in part by things like Maven/Shaper ground degens etc., maybe u/JagexArcane could give some more info when he's not busy with today's update!

The glands are now called sacs!

Are there new combat tasks?

There will be - just need to balance them based on how players perform at the boss after release

With you being an avid Poe player... Were you the dev who worked on muspah and added what is essentially shapers teleport around and throw orbs at you phase? I've always wondered which dev enjoyed Poe...

is the drop rate of boots increased on task?

There is an on-task increase for the boots drop-rate yeah!

Off-topic but I wanted to ask if wilderness slayer with partner is bugged since it's only giving around 18-20 points in total for every task? Solo slayer Krystilia gives 25 points so I hope it gets looked at.

We think this might be related to Expeditious Bracelets or an unintended side effect of a hotfix last week to prevent points boosting. We're aware of the behaviour and will be looking to fix it once we're able!

Can I kill the baby araxytes without 92 slayer?

In the off-task area of the cave you'd be able to boost for them with the likes of a Wild Pie, but otherwise you'll need 92 Slayer regardless!

We've got some ready, just need to check the balancing on them once players get more familiar with the boss - so expect them in the near future!
