Can see this going well.

Yes, they are.

Is the cape received from the reward random? or do we get to choose?

One of the capes is a reward for completing an end-task. Other 4 can be found in Yak Sacks.

We've heard your feedback on Fresh Start Worlds and have some changes to announce – read on for all the updates, including our new release date! Plus, we've got a brand new Yak Track that's sure to drive you wild... Let's dive in!


Yak Track: Expedition to the Wilderness

All new track inspired by the iconic location

Complete fun tasks on the latest track and unlock lore-rich cosmetics inspired by the recently-revamped Wilderness. Upgrade to Premium for truly wild rewards including the Vagabond Knight’s Outfit, Dark Beast Pet and more! You get a Yak Sack item at stages throughout the track and on every completion of the Infinite Reward task. This item gives you an array of useful rewards as well as a rare chance at the new Shoulder Capes!

Fresh Start Worlds - Your Feedback

Thank you so much for all your feedback on Fresh Start Worlds since last week’s announcement. We really appreciate your insight as we embark on a new concept for RuneScape! Click here to read our newspost which has the full update on some of the changes we’re making.

Highlights include:

  • Rebalancing of XP multipliers and Boons.
  • Limiting use of Bonds during the Competitive Period.
  • A way for existing players to exchange Bonds for Membership on another account in order to access Free Start Worlds.
  • A commitment to making FSW rewards available through other means in future.

We've also put together an FAQ covering topics around gameplay, payment, rewards and more.

RuneScape: Fresh Start Worlds is now launching on September 26th 2022.

Added a line there:
You get a Yak Sack item at stages throughout the track and on every completion of the Infinite Reward task. This item gives you an array of useful rewards as well as a rare chance at the new Shoulder Capes!

Will there be other ways to get the shoulder capes/yak sacks after the yak track is done?

There is a repeatable task that gives you a Yak Sack.

It is currently being worked on. We will keep you updated.

So the last task can be done forever until the track ends, every time giving a small chance for a discontinued cape.

Aren't you guys happy that even though we'll have to create new accounts for FSW rares, we'll have this grind for out main accounts as well?

Yak Track will be enabled during the competitive period in FSW.

Including XP boost rewards?

Only the Ironman track will be available in FSW.

Knowing jagex, it’s either going to come through TH or will be released in 2030.

I have replied this question here.

These rewards won't be released through Treasure Hunter or Solomon's General Store. But we don't have any additional details to share at the moment.

Not trying to tear into anyone, but even putting a simple comment like this somewhere in the update would abate a good amount of frustration. At least let us know it hasn’t fallen to the wayside.

It hasn't. We will keep you posted.

That's true but you have to understand how from a player/outside perspective all we see is things in the game that are still broken while Jagex releases more content designed to have you spend money.

It's terrible optics.

I understand that because I am a gamer myself and have my moments too. But my experience as a community manager taught me that there is always another side I don't probably see. When I said that different teams work on different things, I meant that.
P.S. I also want to thank you for delivering your feedback in a constructive way.

Just dropping a note here that with today's update you misconfigured your content.runescape.com domain, which makes some users unable to download the game from the website or launch the client. The security certificates are out of date or something, and users cannot establish a secure connection to play or download the client.

Thank you. I'll pass it on to the team.

Why does the community manager not reply to grievances from the community? Not a sign of a remotely good person or community manager.

Only replies to how to help you understand how to make use of the mtx. Not the concern.

I am also gathering feedback for teams. And any constructive feedback is welcome.

It's not what YOU think you are, it's what other's value you as.

I continue this conversation only because I believe that it may change something for someone who tries to insult people online and thinks it's cool. I am not insulted because I don't know you and you don't know me on a personal level. And it tells more about you than about me. The only one who is being hurt is the person who is crossing this thin line between "healthy" and "unhealthy" discussion. Also, toxicity is something that doesn't belong to me, so it doesn't hurt me. Hope it helps.
To be heard, there is no need to be loud or insult devs and other staff. We welcome everyone to express their concerns in a constructive way.

Heya! Sorry to bother, but was just wondering if there was some sort of update or current state on this matter; or even a workaround of sorts? Can't really seem to find any official sources or updates, so just figured I would ask here. Thanks in advance!

I know that it is being worked on. No updates yet.

I understand where you stand and people attacking/defending you stand, but that's not really an answer. He asked "After the yak track is done" and there won't be Yak Sacks when that happens, right?

Maybe I didn't understand the question. Do you mean when the event is over?

I believe that's what he meant, yes

Though now that I think about it, maybe it was me who got it wrong, lol

I have no info about this but when I have any details, I will share with you.

Here are some thoughts you could pass onto the team working on this.

I would like them to be somehow earnable via in game achievements. I know each skill has a bunch of achievements you can do. Perhaps a reward for completing all those (although for the 120 skills, e.g. farming, some of the achievements take you up to 120 or at least 119). I know someone else made a thread or comment a short while ago with that idea and it had a positive reaction from the rest of the people here (who saw it). I think that would be a suitable way to have requirements for them as well as keeping them mtx free. Some skill's achievements maybe need additions to feel more balanced, but the more the merrier I say.

Another way to do it is to have a skill mini quest for each one. This could tie in, at least thematically to the return to city sized threats that the story is focusing on going forward. Would likely be considerably more dev work (not sure?).

Some skills also have in game guilds that have their own completion system. Although those are part of the skills' achievements (as far as I can remember) they could work as stand alone for boxes to tick off for a 99 cape for example.

A mix of the above ideas (and/or other ways) could also be fun, either per skill (e.g. mini quest for 99 cape, achievements for 120 cape) or one set of skills could have a mini quest and another set could have achievements and those applicable could have guild completion for rewards (e.g. half guild completion for 99 and full guild for 120).

Hey there, just wanted to say thank you for your feedback.

Hi there, you only get the premier rewards if you have the premier pass (either through the upgrade or Premier membership).
