Old School RuneScape News

Since time immemorial, one question has hounded the games industry and all who sail in her: Are RuneScape players okay?..

This week’s update is on the lighter side as we focus on some behind-the-scenes work to keep Old School nice and healthy.

With Sailing in development, there's a lot of infrastructure work going on under the hood, especially supporting "world entities", the movable blocks of map that constitute boats. Supporting those requires changes to how Old School's game engine transmits scenery, players and NPCs to your client.

Rather than launching all these changes at once when Sailing arrives, we’re trickling them into the game gradually – a process that began last year. This means that less of the infrastructure changes in any single update, so teething issues are easier to investigate and resolve.

One example was the obscure bug where you could suddenly see players on other floors of your player-owned house, but couldn’t interact with them. Since we’d only made a few engine changes, it was easy for us to figure out which one caused the bug and get it fixed.

This week’s infrastructure update affects code that refers to your character's coordinate in the game, so that game activities will still work while you're standing on a boat instead of normal terrain.

We’ve also got a couple of regular patch notes!

• The Crafting Skill Guide no longer shows Thieving content!
• Added the Mage’s Book and Aether Runes to the in-game Skill Guides.

We appreciate your patience as we work on these expansions to the game engine, and we look forward to putting these new tools to use in future updates!

[h2]Looking Ahead[/h2]

We know you’re eagerly awaiting the arrival of Stackable Clue Scrolls, the Revenant ether changes, and the rest of Poll 84’s content. These features are still on the way! In fact, we can confirm that Stackable Clue Scrolls are on track for early July.

In the meantime, we’re putting the finishing touches on the first wave of our Summer Sweep-Up combat changes, which are scheduled to go live next week. We hope these improvements will make combat feel more consistent and a bit less frustrating overall.

As always, your feedback has been instrumental in shaping these updates, and we truly appreciate your continued support as we get everything ready.

Thanks for your patience - we’ll have more to share very soon!

Expanding on the God Wars dungeon questline, this comic book series delves into the Temple of Lost Ancients during the catastrophic God Wars – where four warring armies fought for control of the Godsword, the only weapon capable of killing a deity. Trapped in the centre of the conflict is the undead skull, Maro.

Now a captive deep within the Temple of Lost Ancients, surrounded by unfriendly soldiers, the odds of Maro making it back to the surface in one piece look slimmer than ever…

As promised, we're bringing back a rescheduled Mod Wars event! Join us on Friday, June 27th 4 PM BST, for some JMod Castle Wars action!

We're flipping your classic Castle Wars experience on its head and unleashing pure chaos.

Two J-Mods, Mod Nox and Mod Manked, will be joining the battle as each team's unkillable, flag-thieving behemoths. These aren’t just mascots… they’re mobile megabosses with 1,000,000 HP and a mission.

Here’s what’s going down:

• As soon as the game starts, the enemy J-Mod teleports into your base and tries to steal your flag.
• Your team must stop them at all costs, while escorting your own J-Mod and their mountain of hitpoints back to safety.
• They'll also have a few tricks up their sleeve - so watch out!
• Think of it as a high-stakes flag game meets escort mission meets boss fight.

Bring your gear, bring your A-game, and get ready for the most absurd Castle Wars match you’ve ever seen.

• Date: Friday, June 27th
• Time: 4:00-5:00 PM BST (Massing from 3:45 PM – be ready!)
• World: 522
• Where: OSRS Official Discord

This week’s tweaks include Yama improvements and bug-squashing!
[hr][/hr]


[expand]

Yama Tweaks

• The boosted pet drop rate from the Contract of Familiar Acquisition now applies to both players if they are in the same Group Ironman team.
• Emberlight's special attack no longer reduces Yama’s offensive stats, preventing him from being rendered completely harmless via repeated stat drains.
• Ruby and Diamond Bolt (e) special effects no longer trigger when fighting Yama during the Glyphic Attenuation contract to enforce the intended melee-only strategy.

Other Changes

• Abyssal scions now max hit for 10 with melee, down from 15.
• Noted Crushed Bird Nests will no longer be deleted when destroying a Looting Bag in the Wilderness.
• Using the Quetzal Whistle to teleport no longer causes delayed damage after arrival, preventing deaths from damage queued during the teleport animation.
• Prayer Regeneration Potions now reset in the same way that Divine Potions and the Saturated Heart do, when a player dies or visits minigames that reset their stats.
• Thralls will no longer deal damage to Kurasks and Turoths.
• The Collection Log overview can now be opened at the same time as the Combat Achievement interface.
• The collapsed version of the Chambers of Xeric helper panel no longer overlaps with the points menu.
• You can no longer lose Tithe Farm points by reactivating the auto-weed, having just purchased it. Refilling Gricoller's Can through the Tithe Farm Shop is now free.
• The elemental wizards south of Falador now correctly take damage from all elemental spells except their own, which heal them instead.
• Items dropped on the stairs in Pothole Dungeon can now be picked up without problems.
• Fixed an issue where the Shaman's Tome could not be obtained during Legends' Quest.
• Broodoo Shields now correctly have a 1/10 chance to drain attacker stats when taking damage from monsters, consuming a charge and triggering their unique effect.
• Efaritay's Aid now consumes only one charge rather than two when buffing a single attack.
• Fixed an issue where repeatedly clicking “Apply” at Yrsa’s Shoe Store could stack multiple dialogues.
• The animation for adding logs to a bonfire can now be ended more reliably when switching to other skilling activities.
• Updated the Tribal Totem Quest Log to refer to GPDT Employees instead of "R.P.D.T. men”.
• Tinsay is now correctly credited with teaching players how to cook Karambwan in Tai Bwo Wannai Trio quest dialogue.
• The entrance door of the Lumbridge pub now opens to the left instead of the right.
• The Runecrafting Skill Guide now lists what elements combination Runes will provide you with.

We’ve made a few little adjustments to Yama this week!

[h2]GIM and Pet[/h2]

First up: great news for our Group Ironman players! The boosted pet drop rate for Yama now applies to both players if you're in the same group. No more watching your teammate get all the perks while you get moral support and a few bones. Group content is meant to be tackled as a group, after all!

[h2]Cheesy Emberlight?[/h2]

Some of you clever clogs discovered that Emberlight’s special attack could be used to repeatedly drain Yama’s offensive stats - basically turning him into a mildly annoyed training dummy. While we admire the creativity, that strategy pretty much deleted the intended challenge, so we’ve had to fix it.

Emberlight's special will no longer reduce Yama’s offensive stats, meaning you'll have to actually engage with the fight instead of putting the boss in time-out. We know this is a pretty firm change, but we wanted to get a robust fix out first - we're open to exploring slightly less harsh alternatives in the future, if it makes sense to do so. Let us know what you think!

[h2]The Bolt Ban[/h2]

Finally, a quick note for those working on the Glyphic Attenuation contract. It’s supposed to be a melee-only challenge - a test of your ability to get up close and personal. However, special effects from Ruby and Diamond Enchanted Bolts were giving players an unintended edge. We've now disabled those effects during this contract.

We know this one might sting for anyone who’s been leaning on that strategy to get through. If you've already completed it that way, fair play - you got in before the fix. However, going forward, it’s all about melee!

The Old School Team.

This week’s update delivers a handful of Poll 84 adjustments and enhances the Official Client with a new customisable AFK logout timer!
[hr][/hr]


[expand]

Poll 84 Changes

• A new right-click “Modify Offer” option has been added to the Grand Exchange interface, allowing players to edit buy or sell offers directly from the status page without cancelling and re-entering them.
• Added a "Repeat Offer" button to the Grand Exchange, allowing players to quickly resubmit their last buy or sell offer with the same item, price, and quantity.
• The Abyssal Sire no longer fully heals when defeated too quickly during phase transitions, reducing unintended punishment for high burst damage.
• The chance of receiving a Gout Tuber now increases with higher Woodcutting levels.
• You can now empty the small meat pouch when near banks or on the top floor of the Hunters' Guild.
• Cat chasing rats will no longer delay your character.

Official Client & Mobile

• Added a new AFK Logout Timer setting to the Official Client (desktop and mobile), letting players choose their idle logout time in 5-minute increments, up to a maximum of 25 minutes.

Yama Tweaks

• If you already own a Radiant Oathplate or any piece of the Sigil, the Contractually Unbound Combat Achievement task will now be retroactively completed.
• Fixed a tricky bug where the Shadow Dancer Combat Achievement task could unfairly fail if you got teleported on the same tick as when the damage was dealt.
• Voidflare HP has been lowered from 83 to 81 during the Demonic familiar and Divine severance contracts.
• The pet contract drop rate has been boosted from 1/250 to 1/100, and now both players will benefit from the contract - unless the non-contract player is an Iron, in which case they’ll have to bring their own.
• The number of Aether Runes required to craft each piece of Radiant Oathplate has been reduced from 10,000 to 2,500.
• Fixed a bug where the standing pet animation for Yama wasn't working.

Other Changes

• Fixed a bug where Steam achievements could be unlocked without the required progression.
• Surge potions can now be stored inside the COX storage unit.
• Players can no longer walk into the scenery in the south of the task-only Wyvern cave at Mudskipper Point.
• You will now be unable to enter Yama when skulled on DMM worlds.

PvP Rota

The PvP rota has moved to Period B:

• 560 - (UK) - PvP World
• 319 - (US) - Bounty Hunter World
• 579 - (US) - High-Risk PvP World
• 561 - (UK) - Free-to-Play PvP World
• 580 - (US) - LMS Competitive

World 390 (AUS) for LMS Competitive has been de-activated with this rota.

World 569 (AUS) for Bounty Hunter has been de-activated with this rota.

The PvP Arena is using '1 Def Pure' loadouts in Ranked Duels and Tournaments this week.

[h2]Grand Exchange Interface Improvements[/h2]

We’ve made a couple of handy updates to the Grand Exchange (GE) interface to make your hustle better than ever!

Gone are the days of cancelling and re-entering GE offers! A new right-click “Modify Offer” option has been added, allowing you to edit existing buy or sell offers directly from the status page!

If you can’t see the image above, click here!


We’ve also introduced a “Repeat Offer” button, located in the top-left corner of the window. Just placed an offer? Click that button and your last deal’s item, price, and quantity are pre-filled and ready to be adjusted. Whether you were buying or selling, it’s all there, minus the admin.


Selling but low on stock? The sell offer will automatically adjust to how much you’ve actually got, and if you’re fresh out of the goods, you’ll get a friendly chat message to let you know. The GE History button also still lets you repeat previous buy offers with a quick click.

If you can’t see the image above, click here!

[h2]Abyssal Sire Healing Tweaks[/h2]

Bursting down the Abyssal Sire during his phase transitions only to watch him bounce back to full health was about as fun as a chinchompa to the face.

So, we’ve dialled down his healing a bit:

• Bring him to 0 HP while he’s wandering? He now wakes up with just over 40% health.
• Catch him setting up that big ol’ apocalypse attack? He’ll only heal to about 20%.
• Stun him while he’s still seated? Yep, full heal and a stun as intended.

No more accidental full-heal surprises, so those high-DPS plays don’t need to feel like you just fed him a full inventory of Anglerfish.

[h2]Bonus 84 Goodness[/h2]

• The chance of receiving a Gout Tuber now increases with higher Woodcutting levels
• You can now empty the small meat pouch when near banks or on the top floor of the Hunters' Guild.
• Cat chasing rats will no longer delay your character.

Now, we hear you loud and clear - stackable clues when? You asked for it (and voted for it), and it’s on the way! It’s currently going through its final round of testing, and once it’s behaving, we’ll be locking in a release date. We know you’re buzzing for it (rightly so), but in the meantime, we hope these quality-of-life tweaks keep your merching and murder sprees feeling fresh while you wait for the main event.

Hang tight, clue lovers!
[hr][/hr]
[h2]AFK Logout Timer for the Official Client & Mobile[/h2]

If you can’t see the image above, click here!

Today’s the day - the AFK Logout Timer setting is now live on the Official Client (desktop and mobile)! If you’ve ever stepped away to answer the door, make a sandwich, or just stare at your cat for a bit too long, only to return and find yourself logged out, this update is for you.

With this new setting, you can now choose how long your character stays logged in while idle, up to a max of 25 minutes.

Where to Find it:

• Head into Settings, then navigate to the Gameplay tab.
• Look for the AFK Logout Timer setting - or just search for "AFK" to find it quickly.
• Select your preferred timeout in 5-minute increments, from 5 to 25 minutes.
• The setting defaults to 5 minutes (just like before), but now you can stretch that idle time to suit your needs.
• A confirmation message will appear in your chat when you change the setting.
• The setting is saved per device and will persist across sessions.

If you can’t see the image above, click here!

For full transparency, we were hoping to make this a 30-minute timer, but we hit a little snag along the way. We wanted to get the timer out to you asap, rather than holding it back until we had the extra 5 minutes, but we will continue to work on the issues we came across and hopefully get you the full 30 when we can.

Any in-game activity, including moving your mouse over the game window, resets the AFK timer - so you’ll need to be properly idle to see the logout kick in. Whether you're fishing, woodcutting, or just monitoring a farming patch, this feature gives you more flexibility while AFKing. Set it to suit your playstyle and avoid unwanted logouts when you're briefly away!

Note for Mobile Users: This setting cannot override how your device handles backgrounded apps. Many mobile devices automatically suspend or restrict background app activity to save battery. So, even if you’ve set the AFK Logout Timer to 25 minutes, your device may still log you out much sooner if the app isn’t in the foreground. This is expected behaviour and not a bug.
[hr][/hr]


We've also been continuing to monitor your feedback with Yama and have made a few changes based on your suggestions:

• If you already own a Radiant Oathplate or any piece of the Sigil, the Contractually Unbound Combat Achievement task will now be retroactively completed.
• Fixed a tricky bug where the Shadow Dancer Combat Achievement task could unfairly fail if you got teleported on the exact same tick as when the damage was dealt.
• Voidflare HP has been lowered from 83 to 81 during the Demonic familiar and Divine severance contracts.
• The pet contract drop rate has been boosted from 1/250 to 1/100, and now both players will benefit from the contract - unless the non-contract player is an Iron, in which case they’ll have to bring their own.
• The number of Aether Runes required to craft each piece of Radiant Oathplate has been reduced from 10,000 to 2,500.
• Fixed a bug where the standing pet animation for Yama wasn't working.
