Kourend Instances, MLM Fixes, Quality of Life and Bug Fixes

Hello everyone,

This morning's updates consist of a ton of highly-requested changes and additions. We've added some more instances within the Catacombs of Kourend, will now keep the Drop Viewer open while moving and fighting, as well as allow you to open the Drop Viewer of a specific monster by examining them. Read below for more information...

  • The sack in Motherlode Mine now works properly
    • Can be "overfilled" by having 1 less than the max capacity and then storing multiple more pay-dirt in one inventory.
    • Logging out will still fill your pay-dirt sack once you log back in.
    • Fixed the bugs that were present previous to the patch.
  • New instances have been added to the Catacombs of Kourend Slayer Dungeon. They can be accessed by speaking with the Sorceress near the dungeon's teleport location.
    • Dust Devils
    • Jellies
    • Hellhounds
    • Ankous
  • The Drop Viewer will now stay open as you move around, or even engage in combat, similar to the World Map.
  • You can now open an npc's drop table by examining them. New players will have this setting enabled by default. Any existing players will need to speak to the Gielinor guide to toggle this feature.
  • Gielinor guide has received 3 new toggles:
    • Disable Quick-Teleports
      • Allows you to disable the "Double-tap" enter key feature that opens the Teleport Panel.
    • Open Drops on Examine (Npcs)
      • Opens the drop table of any npc you examine. If they do not have a drop table, nothing will pop up.
    • Open Drops on Examine (Items)
      • Opens the drop table of inventory items you examine. This will only work on very select items; such as the slayer chests, crystal keys, larran's keys, brimstone keys, etc.
  • You will now receive a Brimstone key when completing Konar's tasks.
  • You will now receive a Larran's key when completing Krystilia's tasks.
  • Dwarf Multicannon can no longer be used in Kraken's Cove (Main area).
    • Instances will still allow cannons.
  • The PvM Store's Darklight cost has been lowered: 5k >>> 2k
  • All Mysterious Emblem tiers are now tradeable.
  • The ::empty command can no longer be used while under attack in the Wilderness.
  • When attempting to use the Singing Bowl to craft, it will now tell you if you are missing Crystal shards.
    • The old chatbox message was a bit confusing and lead people to believe that the feature was not working.
  • The World Switcher button has been removed from the logout tab.
  • Have been working on some optimizations for performance. This includes some changes to ground items and objects alike. I will be monitoring the changes made this patch, so if you notice anything out of the usual, let us know and I will look into it immediately.
  • Quality of Life
    • The Cursed Altar can now be used without a cooldown.
      • The special attack energy regeneration feature for donators still has the previous cooldown.
    • The final Barrows brother in the chest room now has a static spawn tile they will always appear in.
      • The spawn is located a few tiles south of the chest, beside the doors.
    • Receiving a confirmation dialog while in the Teleport Panel will now temporarily close the panel until you choose an option. If you choose not to teleport, the panel will open back up to the last category you had opened.

    • Queen's secateurs now provide a 20% yield bonus instead of 12.5%.
