Once you have Tier 3, it will be from the new Nests that can ONLY come from nests acquired while Woodcutting (so Miscellania etc still will not be a way to get them, even after Tier 3).

Did you speak to Bill after talking to Oak the first time? Then build the new wall segment, then returned to Oak to get the next stage. Then Bill to unlock the Grove building.
This. Reports we've seen on this so far seem to indicate it's missing talking to Bill - vs going to the Blueprint table - after you finish the Wall and talk to Oak again.
Hey there,
The quest "New Foundations" is now broken.
The south west wall segment is no longer constructible due to new placed terrain.
Please see the attached screenshot. Both of the skilling locations are not available.
Thanks for the report - passing it to the team to look at now.

Check out Chev's overyew -*ahem*...view on Fort Forinthry's newest update: Woodcutters' Grove! If you didn't catch the stream, this is a quickfire look at what awaits in Monday's update.
You can find out more details, including the new requirements for upgrading the Fort's core buildings from New Foundation, in our News Post: ...
Read more External link →Question: Its pointed out that birds nests can drop Imcando fragments at Tier 3 Grove.
If i start stocking up on birds nests now and open them afterwards.. will that still work? Or will the game recognize that they came from before the update?.. like.. the nests are revamped so old ones won't have the same drop table.
It won't no.
Hatchet rebalance
Dragon: T55 → T60
Crystal: T57.5 → T70
Hatchet requirements are re-tiered
1 to 90 instead of requiring odd values like 51
Okay, so Crystal Hatchet will be level and tier 70 now, to be consistent
A brand new best-in-slot T80 Augmentable Hatchet! Once you have unlocked Tier 3 of the Grove you will be able to find fragments of the hatchet in birds nests. Once you have gathered all the pieces Thurgo can help you out.
Okay, so the new Imcando Hatchet will be level and tier 80, right?
So why does the newspost say that hatchet requirements are being retiered from 1 - 90 if we aren't getting a t90 hatchet?
Or did I misread?
It's a good note. I get the spirit of what was written here (ie. the hatchets will now be properly paced through the levels rather than at odd values) but we don't have a Tier 90 being introduced with this update. Imcando is Tier 80.
We'll get this changed now.
Does this mean any pre-existing nests cannot provide fragments?
Correct. Only the new type that will drop once you get your Cabin to Tier 3.
I don’t feel so bad for neglecting wc as one of my final 99s now
It's one of my last three as well! 99'ing in the Grove for sure.
I know they said the wood spirits were not replacing items on droptables, but did they mention where they are coming from? The birds nests or somewhere else?
Birds Nests.
What's the deal with the fort rebalanced? Tier 3 command center now requiring 960 elder logs seems absolutely mental
It's primarily down to the team wanting to make Fort Forinthry's alternative construction method a viable way of training the skill. The prior XP rates were much lower, which are being changed along with the resources required.
The XP hits that come with it are massive, but the cost is having to gather or buy expensive resources - then process them into frames - for those builds.
Did they show the required items to upgrade the Grove on-stream by any chance?
They did! Shown here at the timestamp I've linked: https://www.youtube.com/live/3F_nnyEe2Mo?feature=share&t=2111
Kingdom has nothing to do with it
Edit: birdsnests that are already in game are different from the ones that drop in the grove
The new Birds Nests - which contain the Imcando fragments - are also not available from Miscellania at present.
Welcome back!
The past five months of the year have mostly been focused around the Fort Forinthry Season - which is a new upgradeable area that gives you a ton of benefits and is the basis for all the story this year.
Here's the first update, New Foundations, which was about the base buildings for the Fort, new Construction Training methods and the start of the storyline: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/february-content-drop-new-foundations
Then we had a classic style RuneScape quest with Murder On The Border, which also includes a new Kitchen you can build for Cooking benefits: ...
Read moreIs there any idea when the Woodcutter’s Grove will be released? I see the livestream will be Wednesday, but I’m wondering if there’s any likelihood it’ll release this month.
Probably not too much of a spoiler to confirm this given when we tend to do streams - but next week!
Death costs are messed up, Its protecting the wrong items and is also costing more than the cap introduced in the death rework
Thanks for the report - we've seen a couple of these. Team are working on it right now.
Weren't we supposed to be getting a newspost about the hitlist before they started being released? Or am I going cray cray?
Glad to see them with this patch, but it would be great to read up on them beforehand to give feedback!
That was the intention, you're not crazy! Unfortunately the CM team and development have both been really really busy with Necromancy on our doorstep (plus quite a lot of other projects).
We still plan to do it in some form whenever we can fit it in. There's a lot left on the list and a long way to go.
Is tales of pride active this year? I see the news post is from June 2022
It is, but it's a re-run of last year unfortunately as the timing crossed too much over with Necromancy's final development push.
We felt last year's post gave the best information on it so it's been linked there.
One thing to stress - all the footage released around the First Look is very much work in progress. We've already done a lot since all of it was filmed/captured.
Love the detective work, just want to drop in a caveat that this is all very subject to change so don't go theory crafting too heavily for the release. Values and even Talents themselves could be different by the time you get to play.
I did not see any in game broadcast. And am I going to be looking at the website while in combat?
Definitely not - it's why I was keen to get feedback on if it was seen. Sounds like a lot of people didn't catch it or have it filtered so you're not alone - something for us to look at. Appreciate the response and sorry about the disruption.
Suggestion: the broadcast should not be able to be filtered at all. I saw it on my iron because I happened to have broadcasts toggled on. Didn't show up on my main because broadcasts were off. It should even bypass "Game Messages Off".
Also potentially make it a top level icon similar to the XP Live button or the System Update notification.
Gotcha. Thanks for the feedback - we've grabbed some notes on this. Might be something we can look at development wise one day for an update if the opportunity arises.
