Ryan 873 Posted June 21, 2021 Summer Event 2021 The RuneX Summer event is here, and will be running until August 20th, 2021 As many of you know, the summer event is the longest running event of the year, and we hope you all enjoy it! Vacationer Activity It's a hot summer, and RX is experiencing heat waves! There are "vacationers" roaming around F2P (Varrock, Falador, Lumbridge, etc.) and they need to be cooled off! Grab a soaker arm-cannon from the Nature Spirit at home and earn some rewards! You're guaranteed summer tokens from each vacationer you cool off There is an uncommon chance for Spirit essence which can be used to upgrade your soaker There is a rare chance for Summer mystery boxes Heatwave demon After cooling off a vacationer, you have a 1/100 chance to encounter a "Heatwave demon" If you have a Tier 2 soaker arm-cannon, that chance is boosted to 1/75 If you have a Tier 3 soaker arm-cannon, that chance is boosted to 1/50 This spirit is combative, and you must use your soaker to extinguish it! When it dies, it will drop some great rewards! Summer essence Vacationers, heatwave demons, wilderness event monsters, and even the event boss all have a chance to give you Summer essence Summer essence can be exchanged with the Nature Spirit at home to upgrade your event weapon (soaker arm-cannon) Once you reach the maxed (Tier 3) weapon upgrade, you then unlock the ability to purchase a Essence crusher The essence crusher can be used to convert your surplus essence into 250-500 tokens! Summer brawl Every 30 minutes, a brawl between two random NPCs will take place on the summer beach! 10 minutes before each brawl, players can bet either 500 or 2,500 tokens on which NPC they think will win After placing bets, players can sit on the beach to watch the fight, teleport elsewhere and wait for the results, or even go offline! Let us know if you guys have any good ideas for more brawlers -- current brawlers are: Wise old man Zanik Gnome child Drunken dwarf Mime Cheerleader Jester Leprechaun Once the fight is over, if the NPC you picked had won, you will receive 2X the tokens you wagered! As stated earlier, even if you're offline during the fight the tokens will be sent to your reward coffer for when you login Summer Spirits There are scorching hot "summer spirits" roaming around the deep wilderness! You must grab a super soaker arm-cannon from the spirit hunter at home in order to cool these spirits off until they vanish! Players are required to have at least 126 combat level in order to attack them Summer spirits come in three different variants: Common (yellow) Uncommon (blue) Rare (green) If you carry a blood orb with you, you have a chance to encounter a Superior summer spirit (purple) Superior summer spirits have the best drop tables, and also have rare drops similar to superior blood revenants The better your blood orb, the better your chance to encounter a superior spirit will be! Other activities As per usual, this event also includes the following activities: Cycle activities Event world boss Event keys & task scrolls Money making tasks Event fixes & improvements Compared to the last event (Winter 2020) we've made the following changes: Changed raids cycle activity from 2 hours to 1 hour Fixed an issue where event lava keys wouldn't count for the Cursed Crypt collection log Fixed an issue where event crystal key alching wouldn't count for task scroll requirements Crack the Clue (event) Special thanks to James and Kong for putting this event together! Speak with the Clue Hunter at home (next to the Jungle master) to begin! He will give you: A spade used to dig spots for the next clue A sextant which can display your coordinates on the top right corner of your screen The first clue of the minigame The first players to reach each clue will be given HUGE rewards!

Gravity ballista This new weapon is a 100% chance enchantment with the following ingredients: 1x Heavy ballista 1x Light ballista 1x Imbuing stone 25x Infernal elixirs 25x Sacred tokens The weapon has upgraded stats from the heavy ballista counterpart This weapon also fires much faster than other ballistas in PvM combat making it a powerhouse that rivals to the Scorpia blowpipe Ultimate phoenix pet This new pet is the first ever "fused" epic pet! It's a 100% chance enchantment with the following ingredients: 1x Hydro phoenix pet 1x Blood phoenix pet 1x Shadow phoenix pet 1x Pet mystery box 100,000x Rune coins The ultimate phoenix pet has the combined effects of all three phoenix pets In addition, it also gives a +5% magic damage effect Gameplay changes / QoLs Added a new collection log for ancient urns Blood ghrazi rapier now deals +10% damage while in PvM Added an ::untrack command has been added to turn off task tracker. This command works for any task. Magic formula changes were super helpful for PvP so the same ones were applied to Melee & Ranged PvP as well. PvP should feel more balanced & a bit more tame overall. OP Customs should feel like they're brought back down to earth. Crossbow bolt damage is now uncapped in PvM Zenyte bolts (e) bolt spec now deals +25% damage more in PvM on proc Crossbow bolt damage cap max hits reduced by 10 in PvP. (Previous highest max bolt hit was 78, now it is 68) Slayer teleport scrolls have been added to the Master scroll book Fixed an issue where a lot of special attacks would surpass their PvP damage caps Fixed an issue with certain specs were capped in PvM unintentionally. This affects a wide array of items from Godswords, Dragon claws, Abyssal dagger, etc to Ballistas, Zamorak bows, Cursed cannons and more. You should see much higher hits from your special attacks when using high tier gear in PvM now. Dragon claw special attack has received an accuracy buff Korasi special attack has received an accuracy buff Brimstone chest now sends items to the bank (instead of the ground) when your inventory is full Added a Nurse to the Nightmare lobby Added Abbyssal sire to slayer boss tasks Due to excessive farming, voting now requires at least 20+ achievements completed Due to excessive farming, c-logs and achievements now give an untradeable variant of the Minigame mystery box Added the following items to the POH storage: Ornate armor Myth cape / Myth cape (i) Ale of the Gods Black d'hide coifs are now notable. Ranger tights are now noteable Made the following changes to ground item names: Ground item name display no longer shows in Edgeville / home Changed "terror orb" to a purple as (it was previously an uncommon/green). Changed the "enchanted gem" rarity to common / white (it was previously a rare/purple) Changed grimy snapdragon to common/white Added a left-click "exchange" option for winter 2020 tokens Added a left-click "exchange" option for winter & h'ween 2020 coins Bug Fixes Fixed issue with ranging/maging through walls in PvP combat Fixed issue with wilderness NPCs attacking players through fence corners (such as lesser demons at KBD ladder) We'll apply this for non-wilderness NPCs after further investigation - this is being delayed until we ensure it doesn't create any unintended safespots for certain bosses, etc. Fixed issue where players clients would sometimes crash in a certain area of Kharazi everytime they logged in (In the north-western region of the island) Fixed issue in Kharazi where very specific tiles would send you to the shilo village bank Fixed an issue with Book of divine (wieldable) not being reclaimable when lost (now claimable at Perdu) Fixed an issue with autocasting Shadow Blitz Fixed dyed draconic items for master task scroll requirements (easter and hween) Removed the Dragon boots broadcast from spiritual mages, rangers and warriors. Fixed Zaryte bow's tooltip showing incorrect boost amounts Fixed the outdated tooltip information for Karamja gloves 3 Fix the Crestbearer's item guide Fixed an issue with shark barehanded catching tasks (barbarian skilling) Fixed an issue with vorpal staff allowing players to attack implings Fixed ogre club and boots death protection value (increased) Fixed Inquisitor armor's death protection value (increased) Fixed the Rogue's chest & PvP training grounds chest not properly dealing damage to players when thieving Fixed issue with runex cape binding chatbox message being filtered on Game chat filter Removed the ::claimpet chatbox tip message (when dropping pets) for the "Filtered" game tab option 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
