They literally stink.

But seriously, the AoE poison is good for grouped up enemies within 1 square of the Zombie, and the explosion deals a big chunk of damage to the affected targets in range. Quite a few bosses are either too big or keep you at a distance where they're not as effective, but as someone levelling Slayer, I've found that the Zombie is good to have to get your DPS up when targeting a few of an enemy type. I alternate between Zombie for damage and Ghost for mild sustain (though if you're surrounded by enemies, Blood Siphon will offer better healing on a long cooldown).

What are you fighting at the moment that you want to bring the Zombie into the mix against?

Howdy - As Sakirth has said, we will be joined by the wise Mod Druid in the coming weeks, and Mod Spear has moved on to an exciting new opportunity. In the interim, we're pretty busy and we've been able to keep up communication through our blogs, Reddit, Discord and the-website-formerly-known-as-Twitter.

Mod Jack was chatting to players in the Lore section of the Discord into the late hours of yesterday evening, so I'm not entirely sure where the theory around their disappearance has come from.

In any case: We'll be back to normal pretty soon, I hope, and I've got some ideas for things we can do with streams in the coming months!

This one's already been raised to the team, so it's on their radar! You'll be brewing cranial concoctions in the right left hand soon!

I want to say more than my usual catchphrases, but right now the teams are working super hard on a lot of things so I can't give a definitive answer. I'm gonna have to fall back on ol' faithful: The future is a mystery to us all.

I know a lot of folks are sitting on dyes (either to sell or use) until we get that out so I really want us to get that out the door sooner rather than later! Sorry I've not got more insight than that, for now.

Just swooping in on this to say I've just seen this, and I'll check in with the team on this one in the morning if they've not come through. Keep me posted! Thank you!

This is the way.

Hi Larry, we'll be sharing an update with the survey on Monday, there'll be a section in the TWIR with more details there.

Hey! I messaged you directly to ask if you could share your RSN and we could investigate for you but haven't heard back. Wanted to check in if you're still encountering this bug, and if so, can I get your username?

Unlocking it during the tutorial makes sense, I certainly can put that one forward! Cheers!

James-ec below me beat me to it sharing it there, but I really like ideas here around more customisation.

I can certainly put this one on the team's radar as a possibility, sure. Would there be a preferred way to get it alternatively? Or just remove it from the achievement reqs?

This is huge, and exactly the sort of thing I love to see! Congratulations, and well done! You're getting stronger, smarter and better with every battle!

This is amazing! Love the glow-in-the-dark pic in the comments as well. I have a mighty need!!

Easiest way to get rid of those messages? Take 'em off and do the laps properly, recruit! A wise gnome once said:

My granny is faster than you!

Holy moly! I'm trying to get pet too, I'm praying it doesn't take me 3.3k... Gratz on finally getting it!

Great spot, happy to amend that one. Well, 200m is a no, in your eyes. So what would you suggest?

It's been 9 months or so since FSW came to a close so players who earned their capes, I would imagine, still want to show them off. I don't think giving out Inverted Skill Capes resolves the problems players are raising, but would rather be seen as ignoring them.

I'd much rather return them in a way that feels meaningful and work on the pain points players have right now around Necromancy and Hero Pass. Still, happy to hear your suggestion.

I wish I could, Larry - the future is a mystery to us all, I'd like to get one too! I want my inverted Agility cape to go with my untrimmed 99 Agi cape I currently rock!

D'oh, touché. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Well, we'll get you warm and fuzzy when they DO eventually return. I'm sure you'll earn them in no time!

Inverted capes are something we definitely want to re-introduce, through gameplay, but are still considering the best options for how to implement it.

Someone else in the comments here mentioned it as a 200m skilling reward, which is a nice idea, but the team are still weighing up options for the best way to reintroduce it. No news so far, but we'll be sure to let folks know if when they're coming back!
