Update 24 Jul 2017 - Stackable Urns & New Types

[Arceus]

Stackable Urns & New Types

Good times are afoot in the world of skill-enhancing ceramics: stackable urns are here, along with four new urn types!

Yep – runed urns now stack in your inventory, meaning there's very little reason not to have a supply of them to hand, supplementing your XP gains as you train.

We've also brought you four new urn types, for the following skills:

Divination
Farming
Hunter
Runecrafting
To top it off, here's a nice quality-of-life fix: clicking on an unruned urn will now tell you what rune you need.

Patch Notes

This week's patch notes is a whopper, with a ton of handy additions, tweaks and fixes to sink your teeth into. There's a new cactus patch in Menaphos, a range of new options for how hitsplats are displayed, updated Mahjarrat in Missing, Presumed Death and a whole lot more beside.

See the patch notes for full details!

Enjoy!

Have a fantastic week, and don't forget to give us your feedback on today's release.

Look out for an update on Unfinished Business this Friday, as well as the latest from Mod Mark on what's coming in August.
