Todays updates! 28 December 2015

[Mike]

Released on 28 December 2015
> The Armadyl Godsword and Zaros Godsword their special attacks now do +25% damage (instead of +35%), but they received a +10% accuracy bonus to compensate (this accuracy bonus only applies to the special attack, not the regular hit).
> New players (including ironman mode players) now receive +10% XP and +10% Slayer Points for the first 6 hours time played. This is on top of the +200% XP bonus players have always received in combat skills for the first hour of time played
> Ironman Mode players can no longer participate in the lottery (viewtopic.php?f=73&t=51206&view=viewpoll)
> You can now autocast normal and ancient spells with a master wand
> Using the dragonfire shield special will now tell you how many charges you have left on your shield (that is, the amount you have left after discharging it)
> Fixed the Risky Barrows minigame for Ironman Mode players (a bug allowed a lot of them to be spawned at once)
> Fixed the initial elf tracker dialogue for the Christmas event, he'll now give you the hints again if you talk to him
> Added the ::bork command which will tell you when you can receive your next 'first Bork kill of the day' bonus
> The prices of Morrigan's Javelins and Thrownaxes have been lowered to 15 PkHonor Points each (from 25 each). For the Corrupt versions, the prices have been lowered to 10 each (from 15 each).

Great job mike, roll these babys out

[Not motti]

Good work Mike!

[Rimweed]

Quite nice indeed. However, there's a bug with risky barrows that some times, a random brother can spawn behind that wall/fence and thus making it inconvenient to kill. Also, I've heard that iron men aren't receiving drops after like 10 rounds of risky barrows, while normal players usually get a drop at least every 3rd or 4th round?

Droprates are the exact same for regular and ironman players, so that statement isn't correct (probably just some bad luck, droprates are random after all).
As for the brothers spawning behind the wall, I've never heard of that before and I honestly wouldn't know how it's possible at all. Maybe someone manages to leave the area while a brother is following them? It almost has to be done on purpose me thinks.


Also, you folks might want to re-read the original post, I've added a few more small things.

Excellent updates, but have you thought about auto casting with staff of light?

You always could autocast with SoL, the game clearly tells you to use 'operate' on the staff to get to the autocast interface. The reason why is because we don't have a combat interface with both a special attack bar and an autocast button and I haven't managed to make one yet. The way it works now should be good enough, but apparently not everyone reads the instructions when they equip it

Wow that ::bork idea is straight genius whoever thought of that should be admin
