Updated on 24 November
> Falconry has been fixed
> Fixed a bug where you could abuse the keris to do hard hits on kalphites by swapping it quickly
> Added some shades at barrows (in the single combat zone)
Updated on 23 November
> Ironman mode players can now play Pest Control games on their own
> You can no longer use ::pure before finishing your character creation. We'll probably look into resetting the appropriate combat stats for the ironman mode players who did use the command (tomorrow).
> You'll no longer get a bounty hunter penalty due to server restarts
> Cutting an onyx into bolttips now results in 500 bolttips instead of 10
> Ironman mode players can no longer kill NPC's in someone else's Player-Owned House Dungeon (however, they can still kill the NPC's in the skilling center dungeon)
> Fixed a bug where Ironman mode players couldn't always pick up their own arrows or items for NPC's they had killed themselves
> Cows now properly drop cowhide, bones and raw beef
> The ranged store has been fixed for Ironman mode players and now contains a shortbow and bronze arrows
> Requirements for donator/premium as Ironman have been changed:
For donator, you now need 1 quest or all achievements or level 99 in at least 5 non-combat skills
For premium, you now need 2 quests or level 99 in at least 10 non-combat skills
> You can now choose to either buy or create 1,000 enchanted onyx bolts for the Wise Old Man achievements. Ironman mode players can only create them themselves.
> Ironman mode players will now get their kills and deaths in the wilderness counted (especially considering you need 500 kills in the wild for the comp cape). Boss requirements for comp cape will be taken care of soon.
21 November updates that affect all players
> Dragon implings now also give dragon daggers as possible loot
> Mithril dragons now also drop dragon daggers
> The warrior helm has been added to the armour & weapons shop
> The Dagannoth kings now also drop berserker, warrior, archer and farseer helms, as well as magic comp bow and seercull (the bows are more common on the supreme than on the others)
> The Tzhaar monsters in the Tzhaar city now drop every single piece of tzhaar equipment (cape, shield, mace, spear, dagger, maul, staff and throwing rings)
> Moss giants, hill giants, troll guardians (in POH and the skilling center), elf warriors (on crash island), abyssal demons and the 5 GWD bosses now all drop dragon daggers, dragon maces, dragon longswords, dragon scimitars and dragon battleaxes
> Talk to the mage of zamorak to teleport to the essence mine. There, you can mine pure essence, which gives 3x the amount of runes and XP when runecrafting.
> Stealing from a gem stall now gives a gem most of the time (including dragonstone). The higher your thieving level, the higher the chance of getting better gems. If you get coins instead, you'll now get 10k or 20k coins instead of always 10k coins.
> Gem rocks (at the crafting guild) now give somewhat better gems overall (less lower level gems, more higher level gems). Mining level also affects this as of now.
> As a regular player, if you kill an Ironman mode player in pVp and they drop an item worth 500M or more, they will receive 1/4 of the item coin value instead of the item. The item will be placed in the ironman mode's refund box for half the price of the item (so double what the other player received for it). This way, item transfers (of expensive items) between ironman and regular players becomes impossible and ironman mode players won't lose their items as easily in the wilderness (especially considering they also can't get loot from PK'ing nor can they play Bounty Hunter).
What Ironman mode players do not have access to
> Bounty Hunter & the Bounty Hunter store
> Loot from NPC's that are not killed entirely by them. If another player tanked hits for them from an NPC, they will also not get the loot, even if they dealt all the damage.
> Loot or drops from any other players (no matter how the other player died or whether it's a regular or ironman mode player).
> The vote shop (you cannot vote on an ironman account)
> The donator shop
However, you can obtain donator status once you have completed at least 1 quest or all achievements. You can then purchase it for either 2B coins and 2000 PkHonor Points or 2500 Donator Credits
Once you have donator status and either completed 2 quests total or have level 99 in at least 7 non-combat skills, you can purchase a premium status (again either for 2500 credits or 2B coins and 2K PkHonor Points). Donator & premium are the only two things you can donate for as ironman mode player.
On an ironman account, you cannot choose to take off the premium or donator status, but once we add in the option to revert your account to regular, your status will automatically be taken off and you'll automatically get the appropriate amount of credits back (or coins and PkHonor Points, depending on what you chose).
What's different for ironman mode players
> Ironman mode players can only play Pest Control games on their own
> Ranged store: only plain shortbows and bronze arrows
> Armour store: only bronze and iron equipment
> Armour & weapons store: no helmets (except the tyras helm), no amulets, no rune & dragon equipment, no tzhaar equipment
> Pickaxes & axes store: no axes except bronze, but it does have all pickaxes
> Crafting store: no cowhide, no green dhide, no wool, no ball of wool and no bowstring. The wool and ball of wool can be obtained from shearing sheeps in Lumbridge
> Supplies store: no lobsters, no sharks, no potions, no bones, no soft clay, no unholy book and no rune limbs. Soft clay can be made by using clay on a water source or combining it with a bucket of water.
> Herblore store: no herbs
> Magic store: no runes except astral runes
> Premium store: no bolt racks, no dragon chainbody, no dragon full helm, no potions and no bones
> Hard clue scroll caskets opened by ironman mode players have a chance of containing an ex-ex-parrot, brown afro, rainbow afro, any colored dark bow, book of law, book of war, book of darkness, ancient prayers book (for 1 hour curses), ring of vigour or imbue scroll (on top of the normal items).
> Elite clue scroll caskets opened by ironman mode players have a chance of containing a rare item that can otherwise only be obtained from the vote or donator shop.
Possible items are: any custom whip, a black partyhat, a rainbow partyhat, any of the 7 other partyhats, any h'ween mask, sled, santa hat, fancy boots, fighting boots, a chicken costume piece, powdered wig, flared trousers, pantaloons, sleeping cap, any of the elegant robes, any cane, top hat, any animal head, any animal staff, easter ring, basket of eggs, scythe, fox, chicken, camel mask, jack lantern mask, rogue mask, reindeer hat, rubber chicken, bunny ears, fishbowl helmet or a monkey gree'gree.
This way, ironman mode players can obtain every single item in existence in the game (aside from discontinued items, of course). Once we add in the option to revert an account back to normal status (with a 7 day delay and with necessary restrictions), all of the above listed items on an ironman account will be automatically swapped for their appropriate hard/elite clue caskets which can then be sold or re-opened.
Planned for the near future
> Ironman mode icon next to your name (and seperate colors for donator & premium)
> Separate highscores for regular and ironman mode players
> 'Personal' boss rooms (GWD rooms, corporeal beast, KBD) that are spawned for just one person so other players cannot interfere. Ironman mode players will get the wise old man as permanent assistant in the nex room, considering it's nigh impossible to solo it otherwise.
> Falconry has been fixed
> Fixed a bug where you could abuse the keris to do hard hits on kalphites by swapping it quickly
> Added some shades at barrows (in the single combat zone)
