Bxpprod Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) Ports - Guardians of the WorldYou wanted more Ports, and - by Hubbub's briny beard - that's what you're getting today. Manage voyages anywhere in game, meet three new adventurers, embark on a whole new voyage type and enjoy some exotic rewards, including a level-85 katana and wakizashi, and seasinger wand and orb.You must have level 90 in at least one of a number of skills to access Player-Owned Ports. Each of the new adventurers requires level 90 in a particular skill:Agility for the TenguDivination for the MemoryDungeoneering for the Exile Manage Voyages AnywhereYou can now manage your voyages from anywhere in game with the captain's log. This allows you to send your ships out on new voyages and find out the outcome of existing ones without interrupting your other activities. The only exceptions are story voyages, and the few voyages that require you to receive an item in your inventory upon completion. You do - of course - need to visit your port to do anything else. New AdventurersThere are three new adventurers who can come to your port, taking your crews on new story missions:- The Tengu is a living mask controlling a willing host - not to mention a brave vanquisher of evil. Requires 90 Agility.- The Memory is a young girl born of divine energy, whose first concern is not being harvested! Requires 90 Divination.- The Exile is a gorajo searching the Eastern Lands for her brother. Requires 90 Dungeoneering. Their adventures will take your crews throughout the existing Eastern Lands regions, culminating in a team mission that features monsters from the deep, uncharted lands, and an enemy who may be familiar from elsewhere in RuneScape. Clue VoyagesThere's an all-new voyage type, too: clue voyages.When you get the opportunity to embark on a clue voyage, you'll be required to send one of the adventurers to an island. You'll have a clue as to which one that is - get it right, and you'll unlock the next in the chain.Succeed in finding the final island, and you'll enjoy any of a number of rewards, including Tengu cosmetic gear, trait removal for your captains, and stat boosts.Consider building the new map table port improvement, which increases the likelihood of getting the new clue voyages and gives you hints as to the correct destinations. New Gear and Port ImprovementsThere's plenty of new gear to make at your port's item-crafting stations, too: The tetsu katana and wakizashi are level 85 melee weapons.The seasinger's kiba and makigai are level 85 magic weapons.Fishing fans will enjoy the new scrimshaws:Whopper-baiting scrimshaws give you the chance to hook a whopper fish. It'll get away, but you'll gain extra Fishing XP as you grapple with it.Casket-salvaging scrimshaws give you the chance to dredge up caskets of loot, including divine locations, gems, and port resources.Note that - for each - there is a more powerful, non-tradeable 'superior' version.There's a whole batch of azure and terracotta-based port improvements to build, too - including the new map table. Ninja FixesFinally, the Ninja Team have snuck in a batch of your most-requested tweaks and fixes and features:Exiting your port via the portal can be done with just one click.The current ship selection is kept when moving between the voyages and ship interfaces.Meg's lamps can give XP in Agility, Divination and Dungeoneering.Extra lifeboats are no longer offered once you have reached the maximum of four.You can remove tutorials from random events.The Effects interface closes when a ship is sent out.You can re-roll your captain in the Crew interface.You can re-roll your special voyages in the Voyages interface.Using the captain's log's teleport function inside your port teleports you outside.Current XP is displayed on crew and captains.The exit portal is no longer active during random events.The Black Marketeer's random event has been tweaked, making it quicker to complete. Set Sail! Have fun exploring the never-richer Eastern Lands. This update was voted for by you, so do let us know what you think on the forums. The RuneScape TeamIn Other News Love the Orb of Oculus?

xpx Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 So apparently the new items to make weapons are available from standard (TG) shield voyages. I didn't have a great start- with my 4 adventurer rerolls(got 1 extra from 2 random events i did) i only got 4 new story missions and 3 scroll missions. Once i picked story over clue voyage(clue was loop-grade voyage). First to 99 Farming on 27. September, 2005.First to 3766 Port Score on 20. March, 2014.First to 4664 Port Score on 2. March, 2015.

Alg Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I'm sure the update is all well and good but You can speed up ship repairs through the ships menu. This is the update of the year, hands-down. Nothing they have planned for 2015 can top this. Also seems like the new weapons are extremely expensive compared to just about everything else in ports. Do we know if they degrade? 2 I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urza285 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Didnt expect the 5k steel for one of the upgrades. I need to get another 5k azure and maybe another 25k for the portal.

Saradomin_Mage Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Such a deal breaker that you need special items to craft the new weapons, which can only be obtained in the Shield region.

JeRambo Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 That 5k steel..fml, I was too focused on azure/terra :D. question.. can you send out multiple scroll voyages at once? (send out one, reroll adventurer, send out another) or do they cancel each other out? best lodgings/shipwright btw, or just personal preference? i took ostentatious shipwright and fearless lodgings. and how exactly are the clue voyages gotten? random shield voyage?

You will also get the right pieces for them if you succeed. Lodgings doesn't matter at all. Bar should be the adventurer one. shipwright is mostly personal preference, I went for seafaring(balanced approach). Clue voyages are all new adventurer voyages, similar to story voyages. Similarly, they have tiers based on different island regions, but dissimilarly, they are not gotten in an ascending order. Once you get one of the adventurers in the bar with a clue voyage, you have two choices. Either to send out the ship without any guidance or you can talk to the adventurer and suggest which island they should look for. Clues as it pertains to the island are given by the map tables (these replace jade statues/cherry trees etc). I'm already near 4.1k port score so Portmaster title shouldn't take too much time. 1 First to 99 Farming on 27. September, 2005.First to 3766 Port Score on 20.
