[December 19th, 2023] Winter Bundle - RuneLite Integration, Nightwinter Event, and TONS of content!

Recommended Posts

New Launcher

In order to play RuneX (as of this update) you must install our new official launcher at https://runex.io/landing/download.php

 

RuneLite Integration

We now have our own integration of RuneLite on RuneX!

This implementation does not necessarily "inject" it into our client, so we are not releasing all of the plugins you're familiar with all at once.

At the moment, it's releasing with:

  • Interact Highlight
    • Provides options for highlighting NPCs and Objects when hovering and/or interacting with them

      q4ksx1S.gif

       
  • Ground Markers
    • SHIFT+Right-click tiles to mark them
    • You may then modify the color, or text overlay for each of these markers!
    • Includes quick options that allow you to clear all markers in a region, etc.

      MLigKVH.gif

       
  • Hover Descriptions
    • Modifiable colors for hover description boxes
    • Allows you to toggle hover descriptions for your bank and/or inventory (this way descriptions can optionally be read at all times)
    • Includes a NEW toggle feature that displays icon indicators for items that are potential requirements for Mage of Wisdom or Wandering Merchant

      Oex7TeV.gif


       
  • Key remapping
    • Allows you to remap camera rotation keys (for example, WASD)
    • When enabled, your chat will also have a "Press Enter to Chat" block (also bypassed via "/" or ":" for easy clan chat and command entries)
       
  • NPC Indicators
    • Allows you to enter NPC names (or wildcards/tags of names) to be tagged with indicators
    • In addition, you can SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK individual NPCs to give them their own custom style/color (outside of your default settings)

      SrcwFVR.gif

       
  • Menu Entry Swapper
    • Allows you to change the left-click or shift-click option for items and npcs
      • When this plugin is enabled, simply SHIFT+RIGHT CLICK an item or NPC to configure the entry swap
      • We can add this for interfaces and objects in the future, but we felt these were priority entities for the time being
    • NOTE: Certain items/npcs (particularly pets) may have limited functionality

      GocQcUF.gif

       
  • Notifications
    • Allows you to customize various settings for types of notifications as well as their triggers
    • Optional settings are illustrated from the screenshot below

      J57xMGj.png

       
  • Ground Items
    • Allows you to hide specific items by name or wildcard/tag
    • Allows you to change the color of ground item labels (by their rarity tier)
      • Changing the color will also change the color of their "spotlight"
    • Allows you to toggle other features, such as rune coin value display

      VQHgzw1.png

       
  • Player outlines
    • Display an outline on your character
    • Also provides the option to toggle render self
       
  • Tile indicators
    • Various option for displaying your player's tile & hovered tile
       

We plan to add even more plugins in the future, as well as improvements to existing ones!

 

Nightwinter Event 2023

Runex's Nightwinter event is here until January 19th, 2024

ZxljDpE.png

In addition, we've developed a new core that will help us create future events much quicker than before. The goal was to be able to release seasonal events with ease, so we can still focus on actual updates without having to sacrifice one for the other.

Aside from the usual event activities, this season's event includes two separate spotlights:

Task Scroll Changes

We've introduced some improvements, and new features to our task scroll system!

Task reroll dust

  • Rerolls your currently held task scroll task for x amount of shards
    • Masters cost 8
    • Elites cost 6
    • Hards cost 4
    • Mediums cost 2
    • Easys cost 1
       
  • Added to all task casket reward tables
     
  • Added 100x dust reward to Exotic mystery box common table

Task hunter ring

  • New rare reward from hard/elite/master task tables
  • Grants a 10% chance for task step completion to count as double for any task
  • Grants a 5% chance for task step completion to give small amount of rune coins

Mimic Boss

The mimic boss is obtained in the form of a rare item, which can then be left-clicked to enter the instanced fight when desired. In addition, you can use the mimic item on another player to invite them to a co-op session.

This boss will spit out random loot as you damage it (somewhat like a loot pinata) but also has a final drop table. If you're in a co-op session, the "splash loot" is split 50/50 between players, but both players get their own drop table roll.

image.png

There are also three different tiers of Mimic depending on which type of task scroll you earned it from (standard, elite, or master)

In addition to the great loot, Mimic has its own unique epic pets respective to their tier:

  • Regular pet effect: 5% chance to double task scroll casket reward
    • Also gives +2.5% drop rate boost
  • Elite pet effect: 7.5% chance to double task scroll casket reward
    • Also gives +5% drop rate boost

    • Added to Dragon, Nardah, Kharazi & Cursed impling drop tables

Once you read a treasure map, it will turn into a Verdant treasure map which will have a randomly generated treasure spot in the F2P world! You can continue to read the treasure map for the compass direction of the treasure (similar to a talisman)

When you feel like you're in the correct vicinity, dig with a spade! If you're in the correct area, 1 of 8 possible events will occur..

  • Shooting star (Global)
    • Portal appears at home for 2 minutes, for all players to join

Souls System

We've added a new type of item to RuneX, signifying the "soul" of various bosses in the game.

When incanted, you will receive a random drop from that boss.

  • Drop rate bonus and multiplier do not apply to soul incantations
  • Soul incantations do not count as boss kills (in a general KC sense, and for things such as achievements/recognition)

The main way to obtain souls is through soul boxes and chests via purchase at the Soul Hunter weekly shop (50+ achievements required to purchase.)

You can also acquire certain souls weekly via Cosmic zone (explained further below in this topic)

In addition, there are enhanced souls that are a rare chance via boxes/chests, or obtained via grand promo packages. Enhanced souls give a guaranteed rare from that bosses drop table, with weight distributed to the relative rarity of the item(s).

Collection Log Milestone Rewards

We've added a new reward system to collection logs!

Rather than earning rewards solely from completing an entire collection log, you will now also receive rewards for every 10th entry you unlock in any collection log. 

Every 50th entry/item you unlock will also be a special "bonus" reward outside of the repeated reward cycle.

Once you reach 750 entries, you'll receive a Mystery ticket every 50 entries

EWatmZk.png

This works retroactively, meaning your total entries will be counted upon login for players with progress prior to this update

 

Barrelchest (Boss)

Barrelchest has been added as a great early/mid-game boss fight!

9GVDlA7.png

New unique rewards in his rare table include the Barrelchest Backpack, which increases anchor damage and accuracy by +15%

In addition, this boss can drop the Barrelchest anchor, Sunken treasure caskets, and Sacred tokens!

This boss's release includes a new set of achievements and collection log entries.

 

Warped Terrorbirds

This new slayer monster has been added to the slayer task list, and requires level 56 slayer to fight!

They share a cave with the Cave horrors, however they have their own teleport under the "Slayer" category for training teleports

Rare drops include the new Warped Sceptre which stands as a great early/mid-game autocast staff!

7lE7BEk.gif

In addition, there is also a Warped crossbow that can be dropped from their rare table!

This crossbow also stands a great early/mid-game weapon, and does not require ammo to be fired!

Daeyalt Essence & ZMI Altar

In order to access the Daeyalt Essence mine and Ourania (ZMI) altar, you must have a Daeyalt tiara equipped!

The tiara can be obtained at the Skilling point shop for 150 points

EVsUz9E.png

The shards mined can be converted to Daeyalt essence by speaking with the vampyre located north-east within the mine.

Daeyalt essence can then be used at the Ourania altar, where each essence will craft a random rune along with 170% the normal experienceThe type of rune rolled per essence scales based on your runecrafting level.

 

Donator Improvements

There are some new content / improvements made to donator zones & content!
 

Zone weekly shops

Each zone now has weekly shops (personalized limited stock) for their zone token shops
 

AFK & Aggression Elixirs

This new type of elixir is available from limited methods:

  • Zone bosses (see further below)
  • Zone weekly shops
  • Weekly donator ticket shops (boost/supporter pack III-IV)

AFK elixirs will prevent the security guard for +1 hour,

Aggression elixirs will force *all* monsters to be aggressive (regardless of combat level or aggression timer) for +1 hour

Both elixirs each have a limit of stacking/dosing 2 hours (at which you'll then need to wait before drinking another)
 

Hespori (Zone bosses)

Daily "Hespori" bosses have been added to: Regular, Elite, VIP, Legendary, and Sponsor zone.

Hespori can be killed up to 5 times per day per zone, and each player who deals enough damage will receive a drop / KC.

You must use secateurs (farming experience) or an axe (woodcutting experience) in order to deal damage to Hespori bosses.

They include some great drop tables, including chances to roll for bonds!

Zone stars

Each zone has their own respective "zone charge scroll" in their weekly token shops.

These zone charge scrolls will grant you a little over 60 minutes of mining the zone's Shooting star

Zone shooting stars never deplete, and provide a great AFK method for earning mining experience and passive loot, such as:

  • Respective zone tokens
  • Platinum tokens
  • Noted point mystery boxes (uncommon)
  • Donator mystery boxes (rare)

Each zone's star has slightly improved loot depending on the zone's rank. Charges for these shooting stars are isolated per zone, meaning a player with the highest donator rank can reap the benefit from each zone every week by purchasing their weekly charge scrolls.

DjZDMwf.png

NOTE: These are not to be confused with the Shooting stars global event via verdant treasures! Unlike treasure events, these stars do not provide stardust. However, they are fully AFK and will not deplete (as long as you have enough star charge)

 

Mythic Zone

Every four hours, the King Mythic Dragon (global boss) will spawn in this zone!

In order to fight the boss, you must have a Mythic dragon sigil in your inventory. This item can be obtained at an uncommon rate from standard Mythic dragons, as well as Mythic revenants.

Sigils are consumed per kill, so you will need to obtain one for each King Mythic Dragon kill you desire to participate in.

In addition, we've added:

  • Mythic luck (+1 hour)
    • Obtainable in the mythic token weekly shop
    • Receive a +33% drop rate boost in the Mythic dzone for 1 hour
       
  • Mythic slayer bonus (+7 days)
    • Obtainable in the mythic token weekly shop
    • At the end of each mythic slayer task, you will receive +5 slayer points for each kill you managed to earn during the slaughter task
    • This bonus has a cap of 250 points
    • When claimed, this perk will last for 7 days (must be repurchased and claimed after duration to continue receiving this bonus)

 

Cosmic Rank

After 10k+ total donated, you will now reach the new Cosmic rank!

This rank includes its very own exclusive zone

O1pO0MK.png

  • Cosmic Avatar (Global boss)
    • Spawns every four hours
