Content Updates

  • NEW "Boss Point" system
    • Killing any boss in Runex will now grant you spendable Boss points
      • This new feature will grant a brand new element of rewards to your end-game grinds on Runex!
      • [!] Players who have joined before this update will login with points on their account based on their KCs, so your early grinds still count!
      • Speak with the "Beast master" at home near the Librarian for more information
         
    • Boss points can currently be spent on Boss point perk tree, and will also be spendable for future content!
      • Unlocking boss perks will require you to unlock the perk preceding it
      • There are simply too many perks to list here, check them out for yourself by speaking with the Beast master!

    • One of the first unlockable perks is Superior boss slaying I & II which will unlock the new Superior slayer bosses! (See below)

       
  • Superior bosses
    • Once you unlock the Superior boss slaying I & II bosssing perks, your account will have a chance to encounter a superior boss! These bosses are stronger variants, and have greatly improved drop tables along with new and exclusive items!

    • Colossal Cerberus

Gameplay changes and QoLs:

  • Enhanced zoom and distance
    • Under your settings tab, you can now toggle on "Extended zoom & distance" and zoom out far more than before!
    • We recommend you keep this disabled (or enter Lite Mode) if you experience FPS issues
    • We have also increased the speed of zooming in and out with your mouse wheel!
      • You can also hold CTRL while scrolling your mouse wheel to zoom in/out even faster!
         
  • Notification system
    • Under your settings tab, you can now toggle on "Desktop notifications" and get notifications while Runex is minimized!
    • Notifications will pop up on your task bar if you receive PMs, or sell some items in the trading post!

  • Game chat filter
    • You can now toggle your game channel to "Filtered" which will remove any fluff text from your chat box
    • Things such as news announcements and important alerts & messages will still appear under this setting

       
  • Client launcher
    • We've added a brand new client launcher available for download at https://runex.io/assets/Runex.jar
    • This launcher should hopefully result in less client issues, but also has a built-in repair tool just in case!

Bug fixes:

  • Raids
    • You can now attack Maiden (ToB) from proper melee distance, around the perimeter of the platform
