You can head on down to the Yak Track right now (November 25th)

Presumably "until" 25 November? Because today's the 14th.

Changed!

Will current Priemier Club members (2018-2019) get access to the Premium version, or will it just be restricted to (2019-2020) Premier Club members?

Good question, let me double check

Update: Premier club 2018-2019 members will also have access to the premium version of Yak track.

The Abyssal Hound from completing 15 tasks isn't the same one as the one from shattered worlds I hope.

It's not the same as the one from shattered worlds.

Are any of the rewards restricted for Ironmen? I notice it says "boosters" as one of the rewards but unsure what that entails.

Hey!

Ironman will have access to all cosmetics, but not the consumable items.

According to the past 2 streams Jagex will be doing an experimental TH promotion alongside this Pass promotion.

Hey guys. Just to clarify:

Whilst Treasure Hunter won't be 'turned off', it'll be running in a different way to what you may come to have expect for the first few days of Yak Track - a way that we hope will foreground some of the things we've been saying about reducing RNG and providing more transparency as to the types of prize you'll be getting.

Chests will be removed, and replaced with a glass case, showing not just the rarity, but the full rewards up-front. Here's a screenshot of what this would look like (work in progress).

The Advent Calendar will return this year as well, so from December 1st Treasure Hunter will follow a similar format as with previous years' Advent Calendars.

dibs on the new name "Abyssal Doggo"

Seconded on doggo.

(we'll be renaming and clarifying ASAP).

EDIT: We've now changed the name to Abyssal Prowler (sorry Doggo) in the newspost. This will be changed in-game at a later date. Thanks to everyone for flagging!

Few questions:

  • Will the prize still be random. Based on the image 1 of those 10?
  • If you select multiple keys (10 at a time) what happens?
  • How do Hearts of Ice work?

Also thanks for sharing all of this with us.

Hey Rubic!

  • All prizes that you see can be claimed, the order in which they drop is still random. So if you have 10 keys you'll get all the items you see in front of you, at which point the table resets. Each time you take a new item the oddment refresh cost will go down.
  • Hearts of Ice don't currently play a role with this trial.

And how many rewards are cosmetic? 50%? 10%? Extremely difficult to judge if it's worth it without knowing exactly how much is being missed out on.

In the post we mention 33 new overrides!

Would it be possible for more images or teasers of these so we can plan accordingly for Premier Pass or not?

I don't see why not!? We'll be showcasing more through our social channels, the team have really outdone themselves with the quality of these prizes.

How about Abyssal Goodboye

Also a solid option.

Could you clarify on the TH promos at the time.

  • Is there no TH or TH Promos during the entire 42 days
  • Os there going to be a TH Alternative during the 42 days

I think clarifying the "Alice has taken a vacation" statement is a good idea so we as the community don't feel bait and switched.

This looks really good, I hope its profitable enough to consider over TH

Hey - hopefully I cleared this up on another comment.

Sorry if this has been asked already, but the news post states that its free for those who have premium membership. Does this include those of us that still have this years premium membership and don't want to be forced to re-buy another year way earlier just to take advantage of this?

Yes, it should.

To clarify - will TH promotions still happen?

Very bold of you guys to not run the "Time to train" promotion during DXP week. I'm hoping this works out, I much prefer this sort of system.

I believe Time To Train will happen over the first weekend of Double XP Weekend - it will, however, not be running whilst the experiment I mention above will be on.

Suggestion: use Hearts of Ice to choose a specific prize, with the cost based on the rarity of the item.

That's actually a really clever idea. Maybe something we can incorporate in future.

Hey all, sorry for being late to the party! I am the primary dev on this project (though had plenty of help recently <3) so if you have any questions (especially more in-depth/technical stuff) feel free to ask :)

Forgive me if I missed something, but I see stuff about premier club and premier pass and f2p. How many rewards will normal members be eligible for?

You'll be able to access the free track (if you purchase Premier Pass you'll be able to access the Premium track).

Will this include this years Prem club too? or only next year.

Both! (i.e. as long as you have active Premier Club membership, you have access to Premier Pass).

I do have some questions actually

  1. What are the auto complete tokens shown in the picture? Also how do you obtain them?

  2. These challenges are, for my understanding, not daily bound right? So If I want to complete 50 challenges in 1 day, theoretically I could?

Looking forward to try this out :)

  1. The tokens are obtained via bond purchase, though if we decide to run more of these in future we may consider it as potential reward space for other stuff.

  2. There is no timegating, I fully expect some people to finish it within a week easily if they focus on it.
