I keep depositing my inventory and equipment into GIM storage and it sucks
These buttons are in a lot of places and do not have a warning, surely that might be strange?

Since we do not have the option to hop world the kraken boss is always taken. I understand there are instance tokens but I think since we can't hop worlds like normally it should just be an instance normally.
You can make an instance with tokens as you've already stated. We do not have instances for GP besides some custom bosses.

Hi All
I believe a topic was raised regarding the Rev caves which was to be discussed by Spooky with testers and other internal staff. Is the decision ever going to be made public to the general player base in any capacity or is there no need?
Im struggling to understand how making the rev caves singles plus benifits either pvmers or pkers. Pkers are able to risk fight anywhere in the wilderness or at any of the given PVP teleports such as edge. We only have like 10 active pkers on the server for which we've changed rev caves for. At the moment as a pvmer if a pker is running you down on a half tb you chances of getting out are slim unless you bring a 10 brew setup to do revenants. Theres nothing you can do as a pvmer in singles when somebodys greifing you everytime you go to the rev cave,atleast whilst it was multi you could ward them off.
Keeping this short and simple just to try and start a productive conversation or some clarification to the actual question above.
Thanks and have a lovely day,
Weebking
As of this moment the rev caves are remaining singles+ and next update we are implementing a larger PJ timer (12 seconds like in OSRS instead of the current 4-5 seconds). The wilderness has became a lot more active since implementing the changes last update and has brought back many old players. We'll look to improving it even more in future updates.
-
Good morning, Zaros!Today's update features a variety of changes/improvements to the wilderness. We hope these will incentivize more players to utilize training and farming methods within the area and increase overall activity. As always, please have a read through the update notes and let us know what you think in the comments below!Wilderness/PvP:
-
New dragonite mining rocks (see below in mining section)
-
The muddy chest at the center of the lava maze has received a buff in loot. It now grants miscellaneous runes, gems, coins, and supplies in decent amounts.
-
Ancient caskets have been removed from the game. Below you'll find a variety of new activities/changes that replace them.
-
Revenant Caves:
-
Are now singles-plus. This means that you cannot box a revenant in order to prevent getting attacked by another player. Other players will instantly be allowed to attack you at any point unless you are already in combat with a different player.
-
Increased the amount of revenants spawned throughout the caves.
-
Revenant Maledictus:
-
A new superior variant of revenants. Maledictus can be spawned randomly by killing any revenant within the caves, with spawn chances increasing as more and more are killed. Features fail-safe measures that will guarantee a spawn if it has not appeared for a significant amount of time and also prevents additional maledictus from appearing during or immediately after it is killed.
-
Can be attacked by all players and equally attack multiple players at once in the area.
-
Rewards:
-
Top damager will receive a guaranteed ancient totem or ancient emblem
-
Top 3 damagers will roll the revenant dragon drop table 5 times
-
Top 4-10 damagers will roll the revenant dragon drop table 3 times
-
-
-
-
Wilderness Clue Scrolls:
-
New custom set of clue scrolls with tasks solely within the wilderness.

How are they obtained?

-
Larran's Chests
-
Rogues Chests
-
Wilderness Keys
-
Skilling activities such as woodcutting, fishing, or mining in the wilderness will yield a wilderness nest, bottle, or geode respectively. Some good ways to farm these include:
-
Skilling in the resource arena
-
Fishing lava eels and dark crabs
-
-
-
Consist of the following types:
-
Emote Clues - 7
-
Coordinate Clues - 7
-

Untradeable Item Deaths:
-
When dying to a player above level 20 wilderness, certain untradeable items will no longer be deleted but will instead be converted into a broken state, requiring you to pay a visit to Perdu in Edgeville to repair it. This is only a slight change to how OSRS functions but ensures you don't completely lose hard-earned untradeable items in the deep wilderness.
-
In the event of one of your items breaking, 75% of the repair cost in coin value will be awarded to the player that killed you.

Because of this change, there is no longer a need for trouver parchments. They have been removed from drop tables, last man standing, and the blood money shop.

Do you have any experience when it come to bug-testing: In the past I've forwarded small bugs/exploits to friends which are in the beta team to get quicker results
How knowledgeable am I when it comes to Runescape as a whole I've played for many years now but only recently started enjoying it when finding Zaros, Since playing I've done most content there is Pvm/skilling related
Runescape name: Dont really play Oldschool much anymore
How would I feel useful to the testing of content in Zaros, I only want the best for the new content being brought into the game, I would give helpful feedback on content which would benefit the players and the growth of Zaros
How many hours would I plan spending on testing, i would play it on the side while playing my iron on Zaros

Currently you are locked for quite a long time (from moving, interacting, etc) after you place down a cannon. Doesn't feel quite right and it's a little bit annoying. Please make it so you can move/interact on the tick the cannon has been loaded with cannonballs.
Sorted, thank you.

The trading post is really slow to buy/sell stuff because of the limited amount of offers people can have at any one point.
I like the trading post and the feel of it but ultimately I feel we should be able to sell more items at once, and if everyone can then it would make the eco a lot more active.I don't think it's necessarily because of the amount you can post, but rather because most of the playerbase are ironmen and the remaining players don't actually need to buy that much.
Also, you can get more trading post space as your donator rank increases (up to 20 at Uber). Having a larger number of sell offer slots might actually be worse for the economy, allowing an unnecessary amount to be posted.With that said, we do have plans in the future to make some changes to the Trading Post to make it more convenient.

I was thinking about this.
So how about a custom boss you can face once per day however what it drops is clue chest like beginners easy med hard ect but goes base on yours progress on account higher the levels better the chance of getting higher chest for those who struggle to do clues and only get 1 chest of any however better your account better chance at masters and elites but give you hard. And meds the most
There is already a custom daily boss; The Judge of Yama.
-
We could also make them available in the store for ironmen as well, doesn't seem OP?

Add Royal Seed Pod to the vote/donator/achievement store. Since lms is dead content and it would be a huge QOL, and not gamebreaking in any way. +1
The seed pod was added to our online (donator) store last week.
-
Don't forget, non-ironmen can buy them from our store online! Also, I don't think they should be obtainable outside of the catacombs.

Personally i enjoy events way to much , only downside is that its always the same with voting and u have to weekends for some fun events. so this got me thinking.
Maybe it would be possible to put in the vote store an scroll wich can be bought with vote tokens, and by claiming this token u can activate an event. wich u than can choose if u want to activate a pvm related event of a skilling base event.
Greets xFemale
You can already spend voting tokens to buy "personal bonus scrolls" in the voting store which are events in a sense. Server events are higher amounts and usually reserved for popular times of the week versus running 24/7.
-
No, sorry! The town board is for tasks of all types, not only pvm/bossing. The slayer system is already centered around that and has great rewards itself.

Can you revert the change for clues from woodcutting please the change is absolutely trash.
Thanks
It was just a fix so that all clue tiers were not equal rate. There was no nerf to actually receiving them from woodcutting.

Drop rates have been buffed accordingly to make up for the increase in time for normal mode.

Personal time records have been reset.
-

Added scoreboards for both regular and phosani nightmare.
-
-
Phosani's Nightmare:
-

-
Parasitic egg - usable on your little nightmare to transmog it into a little parasite!

-
-
-
Gauntlet:
-
Corrected pathing of the crystals that follow you in the boss fight. These should be 1:1 with oldschool now.
-
Reworked resource spawning to ensure no full-room blockages occur. Note: similar to osrs, you may still get partial blockages on edges of certain rooms, but never a full blockage preventing you from going through the room.
-
Fixed floor tiles at hunllef visually spawning repeatedly after dealing the final blow.
-
Gauntlet Cores:
-
Obtainable from the chest at a static 1/10 rate (not impacted by drop rate modifiers). You are also guaranteed to get a core on every 10th completion.
-
Allows you to skip preparation inside the Gauntlet, providing you with a full setup needed to immediately fight the hunllef. Time records are disabled each time the core is used.

Common loot is now distributed more similarly to OSRS. Nex will roll two drops in high quantity and distribute evenly to contributors (aside from the MVP who gets an extra +10%).
-
Loot received is now displayed in the chatbox for each player.
-
-
Phase 4:

Reduced frozen time of ice barrages from 20 ticks -> 8 ticks.

Players trapped in the ice prison are now notified upon being freed.
-
-
Phase 5:

Soulsplit projectiles now travel in the correct direction (from player TO nex)
-
Player's stats will no longer be drained by nex's "turmoil" effect. Instead, her combat stats will be increased by +5 levels during the attacks where she has no overhead prayer.
-
Players will now only take 50% damage from nex's deflect prayer, rather than 100%.
-
Nex will now prioritize melee when her target is in melee distance.
-
-
-
Revenants:

-
-
Thieving:

Clue nests received are now weighted, giving you a higher chance at receiving lower tier clues versus higher tiers, similar to fishing mining.
-
Items:-
Crossbow Bolt Specials:
-
ALL bolt effects aside from emerald, dragon, and onyx will now properly ignore accuracy checks. This means the roll to proc a bolt effect is done individually aside from normal combat accuracy checks.
-
The Zaryte crossbow special, as per its definition, WILL check for a successful accuracy roll prior to granting the 100% bolt effect proc chance.
-
Other Changes/Fixes:-
Warnings have been slightly reworked and are now able to be toggled in the settings interface. All warnings you previously had disabled will be re-enabled again by default.

Ashuelot Reis will now note and unnote items when using them on her.

instead of us having to take our pets into the shrine to see what perks it has i think should be able to examine the pets or check by right clicking and seeing what they got? i think it could be quite handy and possibly quite simple to do?
Hi! This is currently planned for a future update. Thanks for the post!

On 1/13/2022 at 9:39 AM, Zik My Zuk said:
Gauntlet gets really tedious fast, especially the prep. My idea slightly alleviates the suffering that occurs during the mindless prep before the final boss.
Regular Gauntlet:
-1/10 drop rate to Receive a Crystalline Core which can be used to dive straight into the regular gauntlet ready to fight the final boss, thus eliminating the prep part for that specific run. The core is used up in the process.
-Upon entering the gauntlet with the core in the inventory, you will spawn outside the final boss room in the main room where the starting utilities are located. The timer ticks down from 20 seconds so you have some time to prepare/adjust your inventory. You can also go in instantly or before this timer is fully depleted should you wish to do so.
-The player will be equipped with a random armour tier from t1-t3. Each armour slot (head, body legs) will roll 1-3, where the outcome will determine their respective tier in that slot. The player will also be equipped with any of the weapons in tier 3. In the inventory, the player will have either a t2 or t3 wep of a combat style they do not currently have. E.g. if spawned with t3 staff, inventory can only contain t2/t3 bow/halberd. The player will also spawn with 2-3 egniol potions (random),16-24 paddlefish (random) and 1 teleport crystal.
Corrupted Gauntlet:
-1/10 drop rate to Receive a Corrupted Core which can be used to dive straight into the corrupted gauntlet ready to fight the final boss, thus eliminating the prep part for that specific run. The core is used up in the process.
-Upon entering the corrupted gauntlet with the core in the inventory, you will spawn outside the final boss room in the main room where the starting utilities are located. The timer ticks down from 20 seconds so you have some time to prepare/adjust your inventory. You can also go in instantly or before this timer is fully depleted should you wish to do so.
-The player will be equipped with a random armour tier from t1-t2. Each armour slot (head, body legs) will roll 1-2, where the outcome will determine their respective tier in that slot. The player will also be equipped with any of the weapons in tier 3. In the inventory, the player will have either a t2 or t3 wep of a combat style they do not currently have. E.g. if spawned with t3 staff, inventory can only contain t2/t3 bow/halberd. The player will also spawn with 2-3 egniol potions (random), 16-24 paddlefish (random) and 1 teleport crystal.
With this idea, we can eliminate prep which can be tedious in the long run and deter people from doing the content. Furthermore, the items you receive will be a random tier and the supplies you will be spawned with will also be random. This means that if you have a t3 wep and a t2 wep, you will be more pressured into doing the 5:1 method. This increases the skill level needed to do the gauntlet in certain scenarios, which I believe balances out the no prep needed.
All cores will be untradeable.
Added for next update, thank you!

Happy February, Zaros!This update features a revision upgrade to #202, Nex, and miscellaneous content changes and fixes. Have a read over the patch notes and let us know what you think in the comments below.Revision Upgrade:

Unlike OSRS, there is no requirement to gain entry to the Ancient prison, and each of the four gods do not need to be killed.

Depending on your donator rank, you will still have to kill a few minions (or have an ecumenical key) prior to entering Nex's chamber
-
-
Boss Mechanics:
-
All fight mechanics mimic those found in OSRS 1:1. More information on specific mechanics can be found on the wiki page.
-
-
Drops/Rewards:
-
Uniques:
-
Works similarly to OSRS in that each player has a chance to roll for a unique, determined by their contribution to the fight. Base rate is currently 1/53 (with a built-in 40% server boost, making it 1/31) (in a solo fight).
-
Once a unique is rolled, you have a chance of getting the following:
-
Ancient hilt - 1/12
-
Torva full helm (damaged) - 2/12
-
Torva platebody (damaged) - 2/12
-
Torva platelegs (damaged) - 2/12
-
Nihil horn - 2/12
-
Zaryte vambraces - 3/12
-
-
Damaged torva pieces must be repaired on an avil using bandosian components.
-
Bandosian components can be received from using a bandos chestplate or bandos tassets on the ancient forge (located inside the ancient prison)
-
Chestplate gives 3 bandosian components
-
Tassets give 2 bandosian components
-
-
Nihil horn can be combined with an armadyl crossbow and 250 nihil shards to create a Zaryte Crossbow
-
-
Nexling - Base rate of 1/500 (solos) scaled based on contribution for bigger team sizes
-
Has been assigned an initial pet rating of 50. After a few weeks of release, we will update this rating and add a unique pet perk according to how rare or easily obtainable the pet becomes.
-
-
-
Other notes:
-
A custom damage counter has been added to nex, showing the top 7 damagers
-
Nex can be rolled on both boss slayer tasks and town board tasks (challenge only)
-

Happy New Year, Zaros!This update brings large changes to the pet system, giving them much more value than before. Take a moment to read through the changes below and as always - let us know what you think in the comments below!Pet Shrine:
-
Located just north of edgeville bank (trapdoor), the Pet Shrine allows you to roll perks onto pets, giving them a greater use than just being a one-off cosmetic gathering dust in your bank.
-
Breakdown of Pet Shrine Interface:
-
Rating (top right) - All pets in Zaros have been given an individual rating from 0-100 based on their rarity, difficulty, or time required to obtain. This rating serves mostly as a cosmetic representation of the overall rarity of the pet, but also impacts your chances of successfully rolling perks.
-
Overview Tab - Lists all perks your pet currently has. Perks are bound to each pet "type"; Cosmetic recolors/variants of a pet will share the same perks. For example, all colors of the ikkle hydra pet will have the same perks. Once your pet has perks, you can choose to "lock-in" perks for a fee so that they are not re-rolled. The locking costs are as follows:
-
First slot: 5 tokens
-
Second slot: 10 tokens
-
Third slot: 15 tokens
-
Fourth slot: 20 tokens
-
Fifth slot: 25 tokens
-
-
Perk Pool Tab - Lists all available perks your pet can roll. All perks have an equal chance of being rolled (none are rarer than others). Some pets will have unique perks that only they can roll, which show as highlighted in the list.
-
Roll Perks Tab - Allows you to re-roll perks onto your pet using a new currency, "Pet Tokens". Pets can have a maximum of 5 total perks at once. Out of the 5 total perk slots, each one has a different chance of successfully rolling a perk from the pool. Base chances for each slot are determined from the pets overall rating. The first slot is always a guaranteed 100% success chance, so you'll always roll at least one perk no matter what!
-
Roll chances for each slot can be increased by spending more tokens on each roll:
-
1 Token (default) - 0%
-
2 Tokens - 5% applied to each slot
-
5 Tokens - 15% applied to each slot
-
-
Roll chances can also be increased by 20% for a one time fee of 1x Pet Shrine Scroll, obtainable in the zaros store! One scroll must be used per each pet type.
-
-
Pet list button (top left) - Allows you to see a list of every pet in-game along with their assigned rating. Each pet is clickable and will show you their perk pool.

For further information, players may click the "?" button at the top right on any of these interfaces.

Equally as frustrating not having these buttons in the GIM bank. You would have to deposit one by one. I think most players just spam buttons too fast without looking at what they're doing.
