Patch Notes/13 July 2020

General

Unlocks

• A lock-and-key icon is now displayed on all tasks with an unlock attached to them. Hovering over it will show the unlock.
• VEZY - An unlock has been added to the ‘of Hefin’ task in Hard tier, to use the Hefin agility course when your active task requires Agility experience.
• 3J9M - An unlock has been added to the ‘damage Ice Strykewyrms without a fire cape’ task in Master tier, to kill Boss variations of Slayer creatures during Slayer assignments.

Uniques

We’ve updated the malevolent and tectonic items in the unique-sets for RotS and Vorago to revert last week's changes. This was done because the result was inconsistent and would cause unintended issues down the line.

Anima Islands

All tasks that required you to play the minigame Anima Islands are now streamlined and merged. This means that all uniques have been added to the same unique-set and are now viable for completion in each tier. We’ve also added the 3 GWD abilities to this, and removed the old tasks.

Luck Rings

We’ve updated the descriptions of the Hand of Glory (RoW) (L8J8), Hand of Glory (RoF) (34J8) and the Hand of Glory (LotD) (NNK6) tasks to state that these rings cannot be crafted until the task has been rolled.

Gnome Restaurant Uniques

We’ve updated the descriptions of the Gnome Restaurant tasks to allow completion of the Fishing contest quest when you receive a Captain Ninto delivery.

God Wars 2

An additional 2 tasks (8 total) per GWD2 boss have been added between Hard and Elite tiers, raising the Crests required from 1 per boss to a total of 3 Crests per boss to account for the three armour pieces that can be created.

• Helwyr: 1 additional task to Hard tier (X2NG), and 1 additional task to Elite tier (NGJN)
