Old School Runescape Dev Tracker

Goblin potion transmog 5. You're not getting a 'mind goblin' out of me.

If you have an RS account with the same email address as a Jagex account as its login email - no. The expectation is that when you switch to a Jagex Account, you import all of your characters to that account and then use the Jagex account to access them.

Can drop me an RSN and I can pass it on to have a look, we want to do loads more with betas so ironing out stuff like this is really useful!

In the meantime, can you try logging in to a maingame world, searching for 'Beta' in your Settings and using the 'Convert save to Beta Worlds', then trying to log in to a beta world again and seeing if the issue persists?

My read is that in some scenarios at some stages of progression, you might be better off using Magic than other stuff. Like it might be the case that you're better off using Water spells on a Pyrefiends task than some other gear setup, but that's not massively applicable to a lot of the players who are likely to vocally contribute to discussions like this.

But in terms of how it impacts existing 'established' metas, I don't think a whole lot really shifts immediately - the primary motivator is opening up future reward space so that we could release items or NPCs that switch things up down the line.

Imagine a really windy day, except you have no skin and your walk along Brighton Pier leaves your ribcage in Stoke-on-Trent. Still not convinced?

We chatted about this a little but didn't land anywhere specific, still something I think we'd be interested in though! I was tempted to try and learn RuneScript and make some kind of a bestiary for Game Jam but CM often have other stuff to do during Game Jam and I'm not sure I'd be able to make something cool that wouldn't be criminally expensive (it's a lot of data to store on an item per account I think)!

It's not something we've actively discussed yet, but think there are numerous ways we could approach it. Perhaps making pages just worth more charges (so you're not screwed over for already having a bunch and then just needing more) might work out, but would want some further discussion!

It's mentioned in next week's newspost, but we also make it clear that we're not strongly attached to some of the changes and we're fully cognisant that the Voidwaker is probably the one we've been most requested to not touch - we'll see if that persists after the specifics are on paper!

MTA Changes are in testing, think I said on this week's newspost in the replies that the aim was to get them out around our upcoming GameJam, so likely towards the end of April or the start of May - but no firm date has been set yet!

More than happy to say this list is total nonsense, though some of the bits on it don't seem too bad tbh (colour-coded Sally attacks, theming of the BSS w/ Prayer bonus, Yew/Magic comp bows, Fremmy armour themes - though they're kinda silly - are fun)

Yeah! I think some of the chats we've had internally and something Mod Kieren was talking to a few of us about the other day was thinking about things in terms of like, 'how are players going to feel about this in five years, will it have been a good thing?' and to your point of "who's using air spells at Kree" I feel like that kinda ties in? It could be the case that we introduce some neat reward down the line that maybe makes that the case and you feel like a badass just ruining that dumb bird's day by generating your own wind etc., is the kind of long-term thinking we really want to encourage!

Not the case! Initially we were considering something like this, but felt the unique effects of each of the Ancient Elements coupled with Ancients already having a unique identity by way of 'AOE', we didn't want to conflate the two spellbooks further!

Hey all! Beta worlds should be back online featuring some of the changes mentioned in this blog.

I've got a bunch to try and get done before the weekend so might not be as active as I usually am, but we'd be really keen to hear from you on:

• NPCs that feel befitting of 'Standard' or 'Light' weaknesses for Ranged.
• On that topic, alternative/better names for Heavy/Standard/Light

Obviously any and all feedback is welcomed, plus we'll have another blog next week focusing on:

• Item changes
• Minimum hit changes
• Early-game Prayer changes
• Autocast Delay removal
• Some drop rate changes (note the Teleport Anchoring Scroll isn't included in these, but we are talking about this one internally)
• Some changes to Verzik P2 and to the Path of Apemeken/Ba-Ba
• & more, there's a lot of bits in there!

Thanks from all of us for all of the chatter and feedback you've given us on Pro...

Coffee Stain are superb, both their current team and their former CM Jace! Their brand and tone of voice are something I absolutely love. I think Riot also do a pretty stellar job when it comes to their more 'bespoke' comms assets (stuff like Spill the Beans, Champion Spotlights etc.) though I don't keep up much with Valorant, can only assume it mirrors the quality of their LoL/TFT engagement.

I think you're right on the last point. Charges aren't an everywhere thing, there is a time and a place for straight up upgrades to your account's progression, like a levelup. Just to give some insight into why they are so tempting to add though:
We generally think new content adds variety and fun to the game, and we want people to have a reason to go experience it. We know people will generally only do content if it furthers their account goals, such as leveling up or gaining gp.

We also know that people don't like to "sink" gp into an activity for 10 hours until they finally get a unique, but they like uniques to be rare so they're valubale. We also don't want to keep relying on devaluing skilling supplies, nor do we want to inflate the economy too much by introducing too many alchables.

Charged items, or the resource used to charge them, tick all of these boxes. They don't affect skilling supplies, don't introduce gp into the economy, can be dropped often a...

Big fan of that. Wonder if there's anything more comprehensive we can do as well, maybe when withdrawing the item from bank, though that might get annoying.

Think that's a fair point. The examples where this is true are outnumbered.

That's a great idea
