Ryan 873 Posted December 9, 2020 Winter Event 2020 Happy holidays, everyone! We're proud to finally launch this year's Winter world event! You can earn Winter tokens this year from a WIDE VARIETY of activities! This limited time event will be active until: January 15th, 2021 so don't miss out! Glacial Beast Hunting Glacial Beasts are roaming the F2P world! Speak with the Winter Hunter at home in order to begin this activity! He will hand you a free Chocolate snowpipe to hunt them with These monsters drop winter tokens, winter mystery boxes, prize keys, and Frozen fur Frozen fur can be exchanged with the Winter Hunter to upgrade your snowpipe, or purchase other rewards! Chocolate snowpipe (t2) - Upgrades your regular (t1) snowpipe's damage and accuracy Chocolate snowpipe (t3) - Upgrades your (t2) snowpipe's damage and accuracy (BiS for glacial beasts and the event boss) There are four different variants of Glacial Beasts, each one being more rare (and more rewarding) than the other Glacial beast (light) - Common Glacial beast (medium) - Uncommon Glacial beast (heavy) - Rare Glacial beast (gargantuan) - Very rare Winter Imp Hunting Winter imps are roaming the wilderness! The winter hunter can also help you get started with this activity In order to catch Winter imps, you must craft special imp boxes (workshop found next to the Hunter) There are three different types of imp boxes to choose from: Regular imp box - 50% catch success rate, regular rewards Swifty imp box - 75% catch success rate, half of the regular rewards Looty imp box - 25% catch success rate, 2X rewards Imp boxes have a chance to break if you fail to catch a Winter imp! When successfully caught, imps grant you winter tokens, winter beads (uncommon), mystery boxes (rare), prize keys (very rare) Winter beads can be used to purchase a Frosty imp box which is an unbreakable & improved box! Other Activities / Miscellaneous Much like all our events here on RuneX, the winter event includes all our usual misc. activities: World event boss every 4 hours (Evil Snowman) Cycle activities Event keys & task scrolls Money making activity teleports Here are some changes we've made compared to our last event (H'ween 2020): Event keys & task scrolls activity no longer has a limit Mole claw / skin exchange no longer gives event key(s) Barrows activity raised from 100-200 tokens per run to 350-450 tokens per run Players who still have some unused "Drop / Exp / Superior boost scrolls" from the h'ween will now have re-skinned xmas scrolls (useable during this event) Boost scrolls will now carry over to every event if you don't get a chance to use them before the current event ends! NEW "Holiday activity boost scroll" - Ignores activity token limits for 60 minutes There are 3x of these available in Tier 1 of the event token chest Fixed inferno giving normal epic keys, not event epic keys Fixed keys from slayer urns not being event keys Fixed keys from Nardah sarcophaguses not being event keys Other Content & Gameplay Changes Nightmare boss rewards Inquisitor armor set effect has received a buff: Attacks have 25% chance to hit a 2nd time in PvM, causing a small visual effect (full set must be equipped) This effect does not stack with Scythe of vitur's double hit Eldritch staff has received an effect buff: (PvM only) The 1/5 chance for 10% damage restored into prayer has been increased from 10% of damage to 20% of damage dealt Special attack now restores 2X the prayerpoints Special attack cost reduced from 75% to 50% Volatile staff has received an effect buff: Special attack now hits 2X in PvM Terror staff has received an effect buff: New passive effect! You have a 1/5 chance to trigger volatile or eldritch passive effects (1/10 chance to trigger both) Nightmare now has a chance to drop a new Nightmare coffer scroll If you pay & claim your death coffer with this in your inventory, your items will be claimed free of charge This scroll is tradeable Scythe crush attack option has been reverted as an integrity change, particularly for this boss fight Chambers of Xeric New items have entered the Chambers of Xeric, as well as some adjustments to the reward table! Twisted shard (NEW rare) Enchants with a Sanguinesti Pendant & Necklace of Anguish to create a Twisted pendant When equipped, it will grant +25% accuracy when equipped with a Twisted bow Kodai's shard (NEW rare) Enchants with an Arcane stream & Tormented bracelet to create a Kodai pendant When equipped, it will grant +25% accuracy when equipped with a Kodai wand Reward table Vespine shortbow has been moved from the very rare table to the rare table Dragon sword has been moved from the rare table to the uncommon table Dragon harpoon has been moved from the rare table to the uncommon table Dragon thrownaxes have been moved from the rare table to the uncommon table We may make more adjustments in the future! This addition was rather "last minute" and is open to improvements when time permits.. Crestbearer equipment Crestbearer melee equipment has removed from the Grand crest reward table, and is now solely obtained as a 100% chance enchantment (similar to Crestroot and Ancrestral) which costs a combination of: Grand crests, Rune coins, & Sacred tokens Grand prize key has taken crestbearer's place as a new "very rare" reward from grand crests (and from it's collection log) Players who already completed the Grand crest collection log will of course keep their reward + points (they are not re-earned when obtaining the key) Misc. changes / improvements / QoLs Removed gold fee for teleporting to Zulrah, Kraken, Stronghold Slayer Cave, and Wyvern cave The nurse at home now unskulls you if you are a donator Ancient relics dropped by revenants can now be 'dismantled' into revenant ether Added 3 new earth elemental spawns to sponsor zone Trees at elite+ zone are now infinite (do not cut down into tree stumps) The following items are now noteable: Kraken tentacle Staff of the dead Staff of light Lava whip Frozen whip The following items have been added to the currency pouch: Intrinsic shards Impling tokens The following items have been added to PoH storage: Haunted spectre pet Carriable xmas crate Bag of explosive eggs Pink slippers Ring of coins / rune coins / blood money Magic butterfly net The following items now appear as ground item name overlays: Vorkath teleport scrolls Bandos boots Abyssal head Bug fixes Fixed issues / inconsistencies with Shayzien / Shayzien (i) set effect to solidify it as BiS against dragons etc. Fixed superior thermo smoke devil not spawning Fixed bones from hunter traps not getting crushed by bonecrusher Fixed bug that allowed full soakage of Nightmare's flower stage (not intended to be soakable) Fixed issue where log burning via woodcutting cape effects didn't count for magic log burning task scrolls Fixed issue with mythic max cape not having the agility skillcape perk Fixed all the bugged basic emotes in the emote tab Fixed event hunter gloves (previously was not giving the event token boost) Fixed UIM infernal/firecape reward dropping in the fight caves when inventory is full (it now goes to your reward coffer) Fixed issue where you could invite yourself to a duo slayer group Fixed crestroot colors 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
