Content updates:

  • Instanced boss portal room (PoH)
    • You can now create a "Boss portal room" in your player-owned house for 100,000,000 coins
      • Note: Any portal chamber rooms built prior to this update are now removed due to price differences
    • By creating portals, you can direct them to a variety of different bosses which allow you to fight in a private instance
      • Higher tiers portal frames (teak/mahogany/marble) allow for different bosses
      • Portals are for private usage, so visitors can not use or teleport with your portals
    • Once a portal is created, you must pay the respective pet of the boss to permanently unlock it
      • You only have to pay the pet once per account, even if you destroy and re-create the boss portal
    • Each usage/teleportation will require a 1-2.5M coin fee, unless you're an iron man (free of charge)
      • The bosses will respawn in the instance, so you can kill as many as you can per trip!
  • Money making activities
    • We've added a brand new tier system to the money making activity interface!
      • Activities are categorized by easy, medium and hard
      • Categories can be navigated through tabs, located on the top left side of the menu

    • Rewards and requirements have been modified/improved for existing tasks
  • Mage of wisdom (rune coins)
    • Every three days, the "mage of wisdom" will offer a variety of different item sets to exchange for rune coins and runex points
    • The interface also includes a new rune coin shop, which has limited item availability that changes every 24 hours
      • You must complete the first four exchanges, or solely the fifth exchange, to purchase the limited availability item(s)

QoLs, improvements, and patches:

  • Oldschool 07 ticks
    • In your options tab, you can now toggle on/off "Oldschool ticks"
      • With this setting enabled, majority of your actions will be queued in standard 600ms
        • As opposed to the more instant registration from Runex's fast paced nature
      • This setting may particularly be appealing for players who prefer the 07/OSRS feel of actions, especially for NHing/bridding
      • If you are not familiar with the concept of this feature, we recommend keeping it toggled off (default)
  • Combat pathing
    • Your player will now prioritize the North/South axis positions when in combat, allowing for proper (predictable) positioning
    • We plan on making more improvements with pathing in the near future, stay tuned!
  • Item switching
    • Made slight improvements with item switching
  • Kharazi minigame
    • Iron man accounts can now loot their items after dying to monsters (not players)
  • Charged items
    • Fixed a bug where the drop dialogue is prompted when uncharging items (serpentine, toxic bp, etc.)
  • Loadouts
    • Fixed a bug where the loadout menu wouldn't open for certain players
  • Cursed cavern
    • You can no longer teleport home from the main portal (100 blood money fee) if you're teleblocked
  • Pets
    • Fixed issue with dropping slayer pets
  • Duel arena
    • Fixed issue with summoning in the duel arena

For the mage of wisdom rc exchange do you have to make all four exchanges within the three days alloted time frame or is it a total of 4 times during anytime you've completed one of the exchanges before gaining access to the shop?

 

Thanks,

K.

need a corp pet for a corp instance seems kinda stupid and p2w if you ask me, 

arent instances meant to keep you from getting crashed, not make you deal with more crashing to get the pet so you can have an instance.

Within the three days allotted time frame.

Once the exchange changes after the 72 hour timer, you'll have to exchange the first four (or solely the fifth) again to unlock store purchasing.

Completed exchanges are indicated with a green highlight on the interface.
