Will the summer skilling event be revisited in the future, or is it scrapped permanently? I’d hate to see the dev time go to waste when Christmas and Easter have been great.

Too early to say right now. The only decision we've really made today is to move our development efforts from that project to these two.

We may very well come back to it for next year, but based on the feedback, we'd look at it in context of the balance of the amount of persistently available content released around it.

Since we are getting another Archeology digsite, are we going to get something we can store damaged artifacts in? Even if it's only possible to store when standing at a bank... At the moment, my (and probably many others) bank is littered with random artifacts.

We'll pass this to the team to consider. I think I recall seeing a good few mentions of this in the Community Hitlist submissions as well!

Runefest coming up in the fall is where they are presumably planning to do reveals of bigger things planned.

I can promise this isn't the case for 2024 content. We want to give you a look ahead beyond June as soon as we can.

When it comes to this year, we won't hold any announcements around our 2024 plans for the sake of making a moment at RuneFest - we know you want that news sooner rather than later, and holding it for that would be a mistake.

If we do end up having some 2024 news shared at RuneFest, it would only because it was the right time to announce it for other development based reasons. But that isn't our intention or what we're aiming for right now.

New seasonals that BECOME permanent, are okay. Such as the beach that comes back each year.

But also, seasonal events and the dev around it cannot impact the cadence of standard permanent content releases.

Great update, thank you for shifting - GameJam almost always produces some of the greatest content for the game

So the latest Seasonal Events (Christmas & Easter) have been designed to be just that - something we can bring back each year and hopefully build upon with each iteration. Any time we put into those benefits us for years ahead.

Building that foundational level event takes as much work as any other content release though, so there's a balance to strike with our development time. From player feedback, that balance was clearly wrong for our near term content plans - might be more appropriate in future years, just not this one.

pog a necromancy ring. the real question is since necromancy is outside the combat triangle, can i use any style to fight osseous?

Osseous will work the same as the other Matriarchs where it can be only damaged with a certain style, in this case, Necromancy

The Battle of Forinthry may have concluded, but some mysteries remain. It’s time to follow the trail of the undead dragon Vorkath...

"The gate no longer appears as two separate doors at the beehive farm east of Catherby."
Now it is/works as two separate doors.

Week 3 of asking why has the oddment cost of small dwarven toolboxes been changed from 250 to 500 with no notice in any of the patch notes?

As part of the oddment store refresh they have been monitoring the cost of items and making adjustments where applicable.

If we are doing plushies, why not make skill pet plushies ?

Omen was cool...but there are more then that.

I'd buy a Rue and Baby Yaga.

Not gonna lie, I have wanted to suggest a Willow Plush.

Took only, what, 3 months for Jagex to decide to fix the Igneous Rain issue.

Nice.

Unfortunately engine related issues are slower to resolve due to the nature of the systems, this is why we had worked in the more general hotfix in the meantime.
