Hotfix is out, should be interactable. (lets you interact from a tile away) until a proper fix goes out to move one of the blocking hotspots.

Hey, That fix along with a bunch of the others didn't make it into today's build, I did preface the above post saying not all would be in it as QA/ RC were on a tight deadline. Sorry for the inconvenience in the mean time.

Hey, looks like the fix in place that moved the wall's hotspots has caused some unintended blocking, going to look to see if there's a way we can hotfix this.

Related to this - do cluster tasks give the increased slayer task drop rates that the species specific tasks do?

They do yeah.

anymore context? I wasn't aware of any changes to them.

Yeah

The quest flicked between miniquest/quest a number of times in development, its intended to be a small-quest :)

I'd need to check how they work on players to know for sure, after the recent changes few weeks (months?) back to soft insta's I'm unsure exactly how things work/are categorized.

Maybe not a bug but armoured phantoms are weak to slash but they're susceptible to inquisitor's staff - is this intentional?

• Intentional yeah, Inquisitor staff is based on the targets attack type not its defences.

Are you planning to capitalise the "wave" in "Greater Sonic wave ability codex"? The ability's called Greater Sonic Wave.

• I am now I'll get a bug in tomorrow (if theres not one already).
  

The "Wilderness Cave Entrance" and "Wilderness Cave Exit" locs should say "Crypt" not "Cave". The place is called Crypt on the map

• I'll get a bug in tomorrow (if theres not one already).

I'll add these to the job, but i think you are correct.

I'm not 100% confident on the differences (not at work computer to check) but
I think all instakills on npc's work the same (where they just kill the monster no matter what (excluding some hardcoded exceptions e.g. telos) whereas execute will pass through an excessive amount of damage but not directly kill the target (that damage will run through combat code and hit things like the rune dragons phases)

There was an issue that prevented entering Edimmu barrier on a zombie/ghost/undead cluster tasks. Fixed?

• Fixed

Latest update made map labels disappear for many users.

• No idea what this is as don't think our team touched them, i'll ask the other teams though.

There's incorrect blocking near the new crypt entrance where you can walk into a cemetery wall from the south side.

• Bug is in.

Unrelated to this update but there's something very wrong with River Lum east of Draynor Manor - white lines appear on minimap and you can walk on water in multiple spots. Incorrect blocking?

• Again, no idea, i'd assume an engine release went out that's causing this and the labels, i'll chase

I think the worry was new players entering the season rocking up at 10 slayer and 20 combat or so and just getting smacked.

That being said I like the idea of high slayers being able to ignore this (changing the requirement to e.g. 10 slayer + 35 combat, OR 50+ slayer)

"Unwelcome Guests" quest gives 0 quest points.

• Fixed - I think in mondays build

Using a slayer trophy on the Guardhouse trophy spot causes "nothing interesting happens".

• Super trivial we can add something

Scenery decoration skeletons in the new slayer crypt have Everlight examine messages.

• Fixed

Shoutout to Mod Pigeon btw, he's clearing these bugs before I've even had a chance.

Great point on the execute hitsplat, at points in development it was a true instakill but then changed back to being execute/damage because we deemed it safer / more future proof.

I have a feeling pigeon mightve kept the instakill hitsplat because it's much cooler, that being said if we have capacity we could ask for something to differentiate it off from proper instakills

It does yeah, probably more noticeable on phantoms due to the accuracy boost too.

Cheers - We've put a maintenance job in to see if we can resolve this for all special challenges, as from what we've seen none of them work currently. It's fairly complex/low impact so I can't imagine it'll be a quick turnaround.

Being on Raptor's task does not let you into Kuradal's dungeon. Intentional?

• My current understanding of this one is: (strictly speaking raptor isn't Kuradal's superior which is the reasoning given for other masters not working - there was also progression concerns as it'd mean you'd have access from level 10 into Kuradals dungeon for raptor tasks but then be reblocked if you changed master prior to unlocking kuradal.)

Armoured phantoms do not count for a "ghost" task. Intentional?

• Yep intentional, there is a 'Phantom' task similar to 'ghost' tasks in the game files (ghosts aren't phantoms and phantoms aren't ghosts), however, it's not been added to any slayer masters yet due to lack of meaningful phantoms right now.

Checking building status in Fort doesn't show the Guardhouse.

• Fixed, unsure if this made it into the build today for Monday or not though.

I'll add these to my above post too

Do you know if this will be retroactive? I'd love to see how many lords I killed on my 120 slayer grind.

I'm unsure if it does/doesn't include fixing abyssals, but either way i don't think it'd be retroactive (unless the tracking already existed per player)

Yep, everything should give their primary type after the fix (e.g. Revenants - give rev soul, Skeletal wyverns give Skeletal wyvern souls etc)
