Gosh, has it been 10 years? Mod Marcos has this in the bag and will look great in elf ears

Given we've seen a lot of questions on if this is accurate or not, I can confirm Keeper has departed the team recently for new opportunities. 

It's worth mentioning that, in his time as EP, Keeper played a key part in making some needed improvements behind the scenes for the long future ahead for the game. We do wish Keeper all the best.

Inevitable at some point :)

Apologies if it's been asked/mentioned already, but will we be able to retain the perks we currently have on our augmented pickaxes of earth and song or will we have to de-augment it first before we upgrade it?

Other upgradeable tools (such as Earth & Song) retain perks and level when upgraded from lesser tools, so we'll indeed do the same here :)

So like why do the Devs have such a rager for Mining and Smith and all the other no Pvm skills continue to leave the other to rot? Honest question.

Well as you can see WC/Fletching are also on the roadmap for this year. More info to come in the dev blog.

Maybe this is asking too much since a dev blog is soon, but is the process planed to be suitably involved? Making the pickaxe of song and earth, making MW, it was a lot of fun going through such a lengthy process.

Yeah It's very much intended to feel similar to creating other high-end tools such as Crystal/Imcando/Earth&Song/Time&Space

an upgrade to the pickaxe of earth and song

am i wrong to assume this means you upgrade YOUR pickaxe of earth and song and not that it’s an upgrade to your account in general?

Yup, you will need to upgrade your pickaxe into this new one with some form of process. It's not an update to the PoEaS

I still remember the days when you could smuggle primal tools out of that minigame and use on the outside world, but it got hot fixed very quickly.

It's still silly IMO doing another M+S rework without bringing them skills to 120 but I still say they should have done that in the first place during the 3 years it took to release it.

It's not a rework, it's more content/a new tier of metal and upgrades to obtain. More info will be shared very soon in a dev blog(s) :D

Rowley is with us! We had to all add our names to a document (oddly enough most of us don't know each other by mod name!) and I imagine Rowley just forgot to add to it in time since he's busy with his current project.

Aye, I'm still kicking around. It is true that I am often forgetful busy. :P

Currently helping out Mod Kitsune with Daemonheim Archaeology (though this is really Mod Chaose's brainchild), then moving on to Halloween (with a possible slight detour to City of Um tasks).

Look Mum, I made it!

Is this the entire RS3 team? Is this more or less than OSRS Jmods?

definitely isn’t the entire team! the list was reliant on people putting forward their mod names, so there are a whole load more people behind the scenes not listed here (e.g. Rowley as another commenter mentioned is still around!) 🙂

Heyo! I went looking and these collections are literally from early 2017?

I have no idea why these were visible, or why we even had them around, so I've taken the liberty of pruning them!

FWIW I agree with this complaint. The level changes that were made with the Woodcutter's Grove update were a step towards this. Rejigging the level of the weapons is something I still want to make happen.

The main objection I've seen from players on this topic is that having all the levels be consistent doesn't feel "Runescapey". I take it you don't agree with this?

Maybe an idea for future maintenances + streams, do the maintenance when their is a stream, so people who want to play but can't, can just focus and enjoy the stream. :o

Also, the spirit during dxp will not appear anymore, still give the tokens, but will it still be in the chat or is this already changed?

We have talked about this a lot of times at the studio - it's a really nice idea in principle.

The downside is we can quickly be cancelling people's evenings if something doesn't go right. It's more responsible (and fair to our team) to keep our maintenance windows with some allowance for monitoring/reacting within standard hours, which I totally support.

(We also can't move streams earlier as it would make the timing too difficult for most of our playerbase!).
