If we leave the group do we go back to regular IM mode?

Heyo filling in what info I can atm,

  1. You need an account that hasn't left character creation (or be an existing Ironman)
  2. Not applicable
  3. If you leave your GIM group you may join another group or transition to being a regular Main*
    1. If you were a Ironman who opted into never not being an ironman and then became a GIM you would not be able to covert to a main.

(I said ironman originally the team has corrected me)

Will I be able to use a dyed noxious scythe on the pet without having the requirements to equip the scythe myself? Very exciting for this pet hopefully the odds to obtain it is reasonable if ur actively playing during the event. Looking forward to unlocking this on my ironman!

Yes :) As long as you have the item, you can use it.

These events looks a lot better than last years!

The Maize maze boss remains me of Gauntlet in OSRS. Will the maze be the same each time or randomized? Will deaths here be safe or dangerous? Will the bosses here be as hard as their normal counterparts?

How many rewards do you get from 1 clan goodie bag?

Does the winning clan get any extra rewards?

These tradeable Reaper Masks allow you to force a Reaper Task for their corresponding boss once per week and give you extra weekly bonus rolls on their drop table during the month of October!

So do I need to bring the mask to switch before the boss dies to get these bonus rolls? Or can I do it after they die but before looting, or can they work from bank?

The maze constantly shifts a bit, as Agility shortcuts will appear and disappear semi-randomly.
Deaths are entirely safe, as you're only being 'spooked' and not actually hurt.
The whole encounter is more akin to a skilling boss, so should be accessible for everyone.

You get 3 rolls on the rewards from the clan goodie bags.

The winning clan doesn't get any rewards this year. We may or may not expand this system in the future to include benefits for winning but wanted it to be a social-only system for now.

Once you've bound a reaper mask, the effect will work from the bank.

Reaper masks bonuses are concerning. If it's only for the month of october, it can be alright... But I am assuming the mask will work even after october for choosing your reaper task once a week.

The bonus rolls for the bosses are also concerning. I haven't done the 4th rex matriarch but if I did with the new mask, it might be significantly easier due to the bonus rolls.

I don't think the reaper masks needed any bonuses. It could've just been a boss reskin and a mask and players would've been happy. But of course, share holders or the mtx team feel the need to always do something extra for power.

The masks are only earnable through event gameplay (or buyable on the GE) :)

Hey Folks, popping in here to give some insight. This is a legit promo, its another run of a similar promo we ran in the past.

Its specifically aimed at reaching out to players who have played Rs3 before but currently aren't. If your concerned about phishing links do login and check your account directly to engage with it.

Wow, I’m impressed. This is probably my favorite of the new holiday events so far.

Really looking forward to trying those maze bosses.

Two questions:

1: are the clan goodie bag rewards tradable?

2: can we bring groups to the maze bosses? Blog didn’t say so, but the calendar note makes it sound like we can.

You won't need to group to challenge the Illusion bosses in the maze, you will need to use the spook weapons you gather from the imps around the maze to defeat them.

I believe the majority of things from the Goodie bag are tradeable (the horseman uniform token wouldnt be tradeable)

As the warmth of summer fades, autumn begins its gentle descent upon the world of Gielinor, painting the landscape in hues of gold and amber. With each passing day, the sun lingers a little less, casting a soft glow over the evening sky - perfect for the creeping shadows of Harvest Hollow to emerge.

Smh Jagex ruining the integrity of Hazelmere's Ring.

Congrats though, that's a wild roll to get and I hope you enjoy at least one of them - maybe you'll get a doubled HSR with HSR!

The hatchet/pickaxe of earth and song is the part that needs Plague's End (level 70 crystal hatchet/pickaxe and completion of the elf questline for "song"), Birthright of the Dwarves (for level 80 imcando hatchet/pickaxe and completion of the dwarf questline for "earth") and While Guthix Sleeps for a tertiary ingredient that combines them into the level 90 hatchet/pickaxe of earth and song.

The level 100 hatchet/pickaxe of life and death is then an additional upgrade of the hatchet/pickaxe of earth and song with extra requirements (such as pirate quests and necromantic elements).

If you don't want to do quests and are happy to settle for not having an augmentable hatchet, though, you'll be able to smith hatchets up to level 100 primal, in a similar manner that you can smith pickaxes. (We're adding smithable hatchets from orikalkum upwards.)

Yes and yes.

Quest reqs of https://runescape.wiki/w/Pickaxe_of_Life_and_Death#Creation but replace Cabin Fever with Pieces of Hate.

Comment

Similar quest reqs to those of the pickaxe of life and death, but Pieces of Hate instead of Cabin Fever.

Comment

Thanks for the summary!

Will share much more info on the update as a whole soon :D

It wasn't clear to me whether hatchet of "Earth and Song" is the final name for the item or just a placeholder for convenience. Perhaps /u/JagexBreezy can chime in.

It's Earth and Song yeah!

Also witchwood will be required for the L&D hatchet

If ya leave em up for another 2 months you will have saved yourself the trouble of taking them down.

This is a very good opportunity to lower start requirements in minigames to 1 vs 1, in:

Castle Wars

Soul Wars

Fist of Guthix

Trouble Brewing

Heist

Stealing Creation

Great Orb Project,

as well as allow for solo start in Pest Control.

Finally, you should unblock ironmen access to Fishing Trawler and Demon Flash Mobs.

It's something I'd love to explore more in the future. However, for this launch regular Ironman will now have access to:

  • Demon Flash Mobs
  • Blast Furnace
  • Trouble Brewing
  • Sinkholes

Why don't you graphically rework them instead?

It's (in my opinion) just not a good use of resources, we could do up a monster / armor remaster / anything else pretty much and have more impact than leprechauns would.

Comment

I pitched removing leprechauns with Garden of Kharid because they're a mainstay in my nightmares, (and replace with better-looking druids) but it didn't go down well internally.

'theyre iconic'

That’s the exact skybox I would love to have (the old midday)! If you go to taverly, with the midday skybox on, and then turn it off, it gets significantly brighter and less dark. Once you turn midday back on, it gets dark again.

Essentially, whatever changes yall made to midday, made it very dark and not “taverly”.

I appreciate your help with this :)

Please just make the midday skybox the same as the skybox in taverly, like the wiki says haha

Thats what it does look like, at least on the environmental artists setup, this might just be a mismatch of graphical settings/filters.

Would you be able to send images of how it looks for you and the settings you have?
