Saradomin_Mage Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Main update[hide]Today sees the release of our first tier 4 aura, a range of new combat auras with some amazing visual effects, and some excellent choices for those pursuing a peaceful path. Theres something to suit every loyalty point balance so, if you havent already, sign up to our Members Loyalty Programme now! Auras... First up is our first tier 4 aura: Aegis. Its our priciest aura at 84,000 points, but its accordingly powerful, reducing damage taken by a percentage based upon your Defence level. The Aegis effect lasts for 30 minutes, or until it has absorbed an amount of damage also determined by your Defence level.This affects all damage types and stacks with armour, making you a burly bastion of resilience in the hairiest of combat situations. The Salvation and Corruption auras both offer increased Prayer XP and a means of prayer point recovery. While the effects of these auras are identical, visually theyre very different, bestowing you with angelic or demonic wings depending on your chosen version. The Ancestor Spirit aura gives you a chance that, when youre struck in combat, the ghostly forms of your forebears will return to wreak vengeance upon your assailant with a retaliatory attack. This works in both PvP and PvE. The Dark Magic aura is sure to become a favourite among magic-users everywhere, as it has a chance to add an additional damage-over-time effect to any direct-damage spell. Again, this works in PvP and PvE. Fight fans will also enjoy the Berserker aura which gives an Attack and Strength boost for a short time, and the Regeneration aura, which increases life point regeneration. There are some new options for skillers, too: Theres an all-new Greenfingers aura for farmers, which prevents crops from becoming diseased and gives a percentage chance for increased crop yield. Hunters among you will enjoy the Tracker aura, which increases your chance of successfully trapping hunting targets. On top of all this, weve added new tiers to many of the auras already available, including Knock-Out, Call of the Sea, Five-Finger Discount, and many more. Click here for full details of available auras, including durations, cooldowns and loyalty point costs. Emotes... There are now eight new emotes to choose from, at a range of loyalty point prices to suit everyone. Ever felt the need to express your irrepressible mirth by rising on the seismic tide of a Lolcano? Perhaps, instead, youd prefer to crescendo malevolently into an Evil Laugh. These, and more, are now available from Xuans store. ...And Much More! There are four exotic new costumes available, each in a range of colours. Whether youre looking to style yourself as a Colonist, an Aztec, a Musketeer or a Highlander, theres a choice for every fancy-dress party or period re-enactment. Feel free to visit our costumes page for a preview before you choose!Weve added some new titles too, including Prince/Princess, Archon and The Awesome. Finally, there are several new re-colouring options, as well as the option to change the transformation bestowed by the ring of stone. Full details of the rewards offered as part of the Loyalty Programme can be found here. Improvements Theres little that cant be accomplished with some hard capital and a sturdy set of tools, and with this foundation in mind weve introduced some much-requested usability improvements in the Money Pouch and Tool Belt. At the bottom of the mini-map interface, youll notice a small icon depicting a pile of coins. From now on, coins can be stored here rather than in your inventory, if you would prefer. You can right-click coins to add them to the money pouch from your inventory. Remember that coins are safe from being dropped on death unless they are in your inventory when you die in the Wilderness. The tool belt icon can be found in the bottom right of your equipped inventory interface. Most tools can be added to this belt, so they can be used whenever you need them without taking up inventory space. To add a tool to the belt, right-click on it from your inventory. For certain tools, such as pickaxes and hatchets, only a bronze item can be stored. While the tool belt wont replace your shiny dragon gear, it is great for performing varied skilling tasks on the fly. Well be adding functionality to this in the future, including support for Dungeoneering. Last, but not least, weve given all members 30 extra bank spaces! Mod Raven, Mod Avatar & Mod Srowley In Other News... The Thanksgiving event has now ended and is no longer accessible in-game. The armour from the new Polypore Dungeon now lasts about 3x longer before degrading; to balance this, the slash defence of the ganodermic poncho has been reduced. The polypore staff and stick have had their melee stats removed, so they no longer have an Attack requirement.[/hide]Everyone loves the Patch notes[hide]Graphical: The Mage Arena water pool now looks like it has water inside of it.

The Life Saver handicap in Dominion Tower now saves players a little more reliably when taking a lot of damage. Dagannoth Mother (v1) can no longer be hit with fire spells when she is green in Dominion Tower. Autocast is deselected more reliably when starting certain fights in Dominion Tower. Auras running out in Tears of Guthix no longer causes the player to run. Other: The cabbage skillguide icon for the Polypore dungeon on the Dungeoneering skill guide has been updated to be an image of a ganodermic beast. Curses will now affect the correct player after attacking one player, then attacking another who doesn't retaliate. The vecna skull's time remaining message now uses correct grammar when the timer reaches 1 minute remaining. A spelling mistake in the Ramokee Skinweaver's chat has been fixed. The Dungeoneering section of the Smithing skillguide now lists the correct amount of arrow heads per bar. Deflect Magic no longer hits incredibly high when wearing Veracs equipment. A typo has been fixed when a clan runs out of resources when Smithing. The Halloween '11 music track is now unlocked on login. The tooltip on the Slayer rewards interface for "Never assign X again" has been shortened. While on a free world, tooltips for members' only skills on the skills interface are now readable.

Player display names on Quick Chat worlds now appear in the correct position.[/hide]Google Chrome Offer[hide]Download Google Chrome here to receive a pair of exclusive goggles in this limited-time offer!

Octarine Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 "Well be adding functionality to this in the future, including support for Dungeoneering." Toolbelt for DG sounds AWESOME, perhaps this'll be a minor reward for the DG tasklist when we get that?

Squakus Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 The money pouch has a price checker as a right-click option, yet it can still be opened from equipment screen. 2x price checker = double price-checking apm! owait you can only open one at a time.I wonder when/if this will get fixed. As the size of an explosion increases, the number of social situations it is incapabale of solving approaches zero. Ensure you are not a social situation.

Saradomin_Mage Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 Pictures of the outfits here:http://services.runescape.com/m=rswiki/en/Loyalty_Programme_Outfits The wings you get from Salvation/Corruption are pretty dinky if you buy the T1 aura :P Save up for the T3/T4 versions.

Sylpheed Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Pretty unimpressed by the wings. Expected them to at least move in some way when you were standing still but they're just static. Not to mention that you have to buy the tier 1 version of an aura to get the higher grade of it. Might just save up for the Aegis aura. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
