You seem knowledgeable about butterflies! Can you confirm if the Butterfly Mask, Top, and Bottom increases the chance to catch the 2021 event butterflies? In my limited tests (you can only catch a few a day) it seems to be the case, but I wanted to make sure.

And do you know if this effect extends to other types of guthix butterflies or even normal hunter ones? (The other types are mentioned in a comment below) Thanks!

The base catch rate I believe is 1/3. With one piece of the outfit equipped this goes to 2/3. With 2 or more outfit pieces the catch rate becomes 100%. I have only checked this on the event butterflies though so I cant confirm for the others.

We already have plans to add this with a future update :) Currently the anims are a bit funky though which is why the guards in game arent moving much :p

The option is on the event host 'Athletix'. The is a right-click option to toggle combat xp :)

You cannot gain skilling pets or random tokens from the activities. Once you have collected all the cosmetic overrides from the shop the only benefit of the event will be the xp. The Area buff should be available by then though for anyone wanting to skill at the bank :)

Will it be converted to cosmetic override over next week's updates?

I can put in a request to see if this is something we can do. For now it can be stored with Diango if you don't want it to take up bank space. It will also increase the catch rate of butterflies while you wear it :)

The butterfly outfit is an old cosmetic that we have re-released. This is why its in outfit form rather than a cosmetic override.

I did the agility task, and timed my token gain to find an average of about 80 tokens per minute, when doing the correct direction. To get 5,000 tokens at this rate would take over an hour... This is the intended rate?

This is correct yes. When fully afk the token rates will be around 3500-4000 p/h. Fully active you will get closer to 5k. These rates will then be halved each day after the first 5k tokens are gained.

I've just checked the green, yellow and white butterflies on my account and I did not receive any xp when catching them.

Tokens can only be earned from the event. You will gain the first 5000 tokens each day at double the speed meaning you can do that and then leave if you want to. There are also some tokens rewards you can claim from the global progression that can help towards the cosmetics :)

for pures/10hp accounts this update has made the game very dangerous to play

Head to the Hall of Memories and talk to Orla Fairweather. You can disable the xp there :)

That's one way to take your worshipping to the next level.

From my knowledge pets cannot be gained from the 3 activities.

Thanks for the feedback. I've passed this over to the team :D

This change was made because you shouldn't have to actively get worse slayer tasks in order to advance. Now if you do the tasks optimal to your level you should have to do less tasks overall to complete the yak track task.

Also, don't know if this is a known bug, but everytime I lobby or log out and log back in, when you click on Yak Track it shows the "Play Now" screen + mini-tutorial. Shows up across multiple accounts, both using the regular and Steam clients.

I believe this is being hotfixed shortly.

Yes this looks to be an oversight. I'll poke the team to see if we can get it added :)

u/JagexCamel said this is bug abuse in a thread recently... though when asked if people will be punished for it, he ghosted.

Camel, THIS is why we need communication and punishment. Its been so long without action that people are assuming its safe to do and is an unintended feature, but a feature that is here to stay.

This issue was addressed more in-depth on todays livestream. We currently have multiple different departments investigating this exploit and we will be able to provide more information once those investigations conclude. Unfortunately the majority of questions I have seen have been asking about punishments which is something im unable to answer in my current role. Further information will be provided by the CM team as the investigations progress.

NGL I was thinking the same thing. Not many people would call my fashionscape 'Majestic' xD

Thanks for this :)

I completely agree with the sentiment towards seeing Jmods in game and interacting with the community. I remember way back when Prif was released seeing Mod Osbourne stood at the entrance to the tower of voices welcoming everyone to the city for the first time. He didn't say much but it really added to the overall experience. Now that im in a similar position, I try to pop up in transmog or hand out love letters etc whenever i can. I know from my personal experience that little things like that can have a big impact to someones playing exerience.

But i cant take all the credit. There are many other mods who do similar things and even more mods that play daily on their personal accounts that you might interact with without realising. I know from my personal experience that playing Runescape after working on it all day can be exhausting. So seeing so many colleagues logging in after work goes to show how much they love the game.

P.s - I'm g...
