  1. Skillchompas
     
    As we finish off the Quest, we have begun work on some smaller projects. The first of these is Skillchompas! As you may guess from the title, this is a skilling update. The majority of the development work is due to be finished next week.
     
    You will be able to hunt four tiers of new Chinchompas, Mithril, Adamite, Runite and Dragon. You can then equip and use these in Divination, Fishing, Mining and Woodcutting for improved XP rates. Of course, just like those used in combat, each Chinchompa has a single use. They will be tradable, so this does add a new moneymaking method for hunters.

  2. Hey all!

    Just a quick message to let everyone know that we have temporarily removed the use of bonus XP on Silverhawk Boots.

    The reason behind this lies with Brawler gloves having been made more obtainable as a rare drop, and as you may have noticed, when stacked together the gloves and boots creates a large influx of Agility XP.

    As you know, we have been keen to keep the Silverhawk Boots as balanced as possible, without giving people a way of gaining too much Agility XP in one go. We plan revisit this as quickly ASAP to ensure that Bonus Agility XP will once again be useable by Silverhawk Boots without Brawler Gloves stacking on top.

    We thank you for your patience at this time, and will be sure to bring you any updates as soon as possible. .^

    (thanks to http://www.reddit.com/r/runescape/comments/23yu8q/bts_102_the_runescape_road_trip/ch1xw7l for the break down)

     

    Should affect this month's xp gains by a bit.

     

    mentioned in the latest bts video:

    Because of the 200m limit, the highest prestige you'll be able to get in each skill is 15, and the max level after that will be 58. Which means if you were insane enough to spend your entire life prestiging, you'd be able to get a total level of 40433, or 41976 after the next skill is out.

    There is no max prestige.

     

    https://twitter.com/JagexJack/status/388336730727665664

     

    So it'll cap at 200m per skill? Or more...

     

     

    Well, there are two hiscores. One for the prestige system and one for the old system.

     

    You still would end up capping at 200m XP on the old hiscores, but the prestige hiscores would allow you to train the skill forever, and be able to show off this (e.g. 50 prestige would be doing 1-99 50 times).

     

    The amount of experience required for each prestige does double though, (1 - 13m, 2 - 26m, 3 - 39m, 4 - 42m, etc).

  5. Talking with some friends, apparently you get much more XP from the Battle of Lumbridge and fishing is somewhat comparable to barb, anyone tried it yet?

     

    Week 4 of BoL, it hit tier 2 for lamps and such, the lamps are equal to squeal lamps in terms of rewards, and yes, the spots give over 100 xp per time you collect the 5 tears or however many you get.

     

    With the highest tier token (dragon) and level 99 in Wc/Fish/Mine, I receive 218 xp each time I collect tears. Before this update I believe it was 5 xp?

  6. small chance the new skill might be tomorow. on a podcast a question was asked if the skill was coming before the quest and the jmod responded mabye or something. who knows lol

     

    I'm thinking that the new skill will come on the week commencing the 19th August.

     

    New quest will most likely be coming this week, as they released the BTS video a few days ago for it. This also makes sense as I think releasing the skill a week before the quest is released would mean that a smaller number of people would do the quest, as the majority of people would probably be too busy training the new skill.

     

    They also mentioned that the loyalty store will be closing on the 19th August for a week so that they can prepare for the loyalty store/Solomon's update (which I'm guessing will come the week of the 26th August)

  7. Thanks for the top 15 update :)

     

    When divination is released, do you think top players will stop the skill they are training so as to try and max the new one out ASAP? or leave it until there is more information available on how to train it? Or just not train it so as to 'hide' and not be shown on the front page for a while?

     

    And Suomi did an AMA (ask me anything) on reddit earlier if anyone is interested http://www.reddit.co...current_rank_1/
