Ah, yes, that'd be it. We were originally going to add this update's achievements to Exploration->Anachronia.

But the list was already a lot to scroll through due to each zygomite having its own achievement, you can get the same info from the meta achievement with less scrolling, and there'd be no runescore change by collapsing. So I did a little house-cleaning.

We ultimately moved our achievements to an Activities subcategory as we managed to do more than we originally planned (yay!) but kept the Anachronia cleanup for, hopefully, a net positive.

There's some lovely ideas here if we get to do a future expansion to this area. Bookmarked.

Thank you both for taking the time to write up your suggestions! I love the passion of our community.

To make a 22 year old pop culture reference...

This. Is. RUNESCAPE!

I love this for us.

Thank you for your appreciation of this differently abled representation, OP!

The Potteringtons are such fun to write. :)

I...I think that's just you?

(In which case, you might want to have your doctor take a look at that.)

Glad we added these to the farmer's market now. Smug mode engaged. :D

Yep, so that the achievements for getting an unchecked from carestyling and collecting aren't high RNG, the drop pool is significantly smaller until you get the achievement.

Then the activity changes to a rarer long term drop rate when you have the achievement.

This Galadriel gets it.

It's in Bill's dialogue if you speak to him after you start the quest (so the critical path isn't too long), so you may have missed it.

I imagine it'll be in a wiki transcript soon, if it isn't already.

Also, Mod Doctor did some fantastic QoL to Elemental Workshop 3's notorious puzzle. Eg you don't have to wait for your avatar to run (or walk if you're out of energy) all the way around from one lever to the next, which was a big contributor to the length of the puzzle.

Do it.

The more players do it, the greater the likelihood we may some day get pants.

Do it.

Do it now.

Ditto! It's one of the few skilling pets I have left.

Between this and Dream of Iaia, it's a good time to be a skilling pet hunter.

As mentioned elsewhere in the thread, that's the village square of Davendale, the mobile tutorial we developed and released last year. :)

Seers' Village rework didn't get very far beyond concepting and placeholder mapping before the environment artist working on it was reallocated, as far as I'm aware? (Might've been to mapping the Lost Grove / Solak? But don't quote me on that - it was years ago.)

When we refer to budgeting in RuneScape development, it's almost always referring to time budget.

Most of our staff are permanent, so in essence the financial cost has already been covered by payroll.

That provides X hours of the time of Y people, so the resource we have to work with is person hours.

The game updates on a weekly basis, which means a variety of sizes of content need to be developed in parallel, keeping everybody productive without overloading any one department that'd bottleneck the pipeline.

So it becomes a tricky balance of resource management and scheduling. Hence time budgeting.

You only get the flashback if you've completed One Small Favour.

<3 !

Yep, you can use tradeable or untradeable anima as an ingredient in elder god arrows. The arrows remain tradeable either way.

Thank you very much!

Well, two content devs.

We couldn't've done it without Mods Chaose (lead QA), Neil (concept), Blkwitch (environment), Dragon & Zoltan (character), Wing (animation), Tom (icons), Grace (audio), Localisation (Moon/Dorn/Nelly/Lynx - thank you for accepting 3k more words than we'd originally budgeted!), Production & Product (Jack, Kalaya, Katie, Stacey).

Plus of course our lovely support teams in Creative Services & Editorial, Community Management, Release Candidate QA, etc.

All the above methods are currently XP-based.

Another casualty of the pandemic - I no longer have a desk!
