25 February Updates: The Inferno, added privacy, dual CC improvements

[The underdog]

If you manage to beat it, you will receive 5,000 tokkul and an infernal cape, one of the best capes in the game. The max cape has slightly higher overall stats, but the infernal cape offers +10 strength bonus instead of +8.

Don't you mean that the infernal cape offers a +8 strength bonus meanwhile a max cape only gives a +5 strength bonus?

Seemsl ike it is +10 but it doesn't show in the stats and that he meant comp cape instead of max.

Does lucky pet, wealth and fortune help on zuk for pet chance?

The Inferno

The Inferno is a safe, solo minigame. This means you have to play it on your own, but you will not lose any items on death. Hardcore Ironman will not lose their status if they die here.
If you manage to beat it, you will receive 5,000 tokkul and an infernal cape, one of the best capes in the game. The max cape has slightly higher overall stats, but the infernal cape offers +10 strength bonus instead of +8.
Each time you beat the inferno, you also have a 1/100 chance to receive a Jal-nib-rek pet, which can be transformed into a TzRek-Zuk pet.

Beating the Inferno at least once will become a mandatory requirement to wear the completionist cape in the future. However, there is a 4 week grace period in which players still have the ability to wear the completionist cape without having beaten the Inferno. You will not be able to wear a completionist cape inside the inferno until you have beaten it at least once.

As you may have guessed, the minigame works the same way as in OSRS. If you want to know how to beat it, we advise looking up strategy guides on the OSRS wiki or on YouTube.

Premium members can pay 6,000 Tokkul to start the Inferno from wave 40. If you have a (lucky) Jal-nib-rek or TzRek-Zuk pet, you can pay 5,000 Tokkul to start the Inferno from wave 50, regardless of donator rank.

We have not yet added TzKal-Zuk as a slayer task (which will become unlocked once you have beaten it at least once), this is planned for a future update. An official discussion topic about this slayer task will follow soon.

Player privacy

In order to improve the privacy of our players, we have added some additional restrictions to a number of commands.

As such, the following commands can no longer be used, except by admins:

• ::checkbhs
• ::checkcredits
• ::checkpcs
• ::checkpoints
• ::checkratio
• ::checkslayerpoints
• ::checkstreak
• ::checkvotes

The following commands can now only be used if the other player has their private chat on public or on friends and have you in their friends list:

• ::private
• ::checktimeplayed

As there has been quite some abuse by honor players to check if someone is gearing up to enter the wilderness, we have imposed additional restrictions to the following commands, which can no longer be executed on players in the wilderness or in the mage bank or on players who performed any actions in their bank in the past 30 seconds while in Edgeville:

• ::xteleto
• ::copy
• ::showinv
• ::copyinv
• ::showbank
• ::copybank

If needed, we can further adjust these restrictions (in either direction) based on player feedback.

Other updates

• Pathfinding toward larger NPC's has been improved when using ranged or magic. If a large NPC is able to attack you, you will now also be able to attack it without being moved in melee distance when using ranged or magic.
• The gates at Pest Control have been fixed.
• Several pet restrictions have been removed, so you can now bring you pet to any minigame.

  • Alchemical hydra heads
  • Hydra leather
  • Hydra's claw
• Any bugs with dual clan channels (should) have been fixed.
• Helpers and staff will now always be inside the help clan channel, they can no longer leave it.
