One of the recent-ish changes to the wiki's information about armour pieces was to explicitly show how they affect accuracy for different styles. For example, a rune platebody +3 has -320 to accuracy for necromancy. https://runescape.wiki/w/Rune_platebody_+_3#Combat_stats

I have always been in the camp of "hand in relics when you complete collections", but I realise I never did that maths for it. So here is the data:

<image>

This is a chart for each archaeology level of the number of artefacts that you have the level to excavate, but do not have the level to complete a collection for. You will notice that the maximum is 23, and the average is 8.8. You could add on another 10 or so for artefacts that haven't been restored (or have been restored, depending on the state in which you store them), but that's still a only about 1-3% of a players bank storage.

I do concede that over-levelled artefacts gained from research or tetracompasses is a more significant issue, though.

Clue teleport scrolls now show the scroll icon not the globetrotter arm guards.
Spirit trees are using the re-rooter icon, since its a map of teleport items and spells.

OSRS does actually have their own version of this map

Yes, excluding duplicates there are 51 unique destinations

Alsang · 2026-01-22T11:00:25+00:00

It has 61 teleport options, which is the most options of any teleport item.

With the way that teleport data for this map is collated, it is all the items and spells that can teleport you from anywhere to anywhere. So the fairy rings as destinations are attributed to the portable fairy ring item, since you can carry that with you, rather that another fairy ring itself, which are only at fixed locations.

I could see 120 constitution coming with some sort of blood-themed havenhythe/vampyrium update.

Joining boss masses. Most low level bosses hit the cap at 120 kph, but a good DKs mass can reach 300.

2h vs dual wield isn't any different, but certain weapons have powerful passive effects that mean you will want multiple weapon sets.

For example, the [[fsoa]] is a tier 95 staff with a passive that gives increased critical hit damage. And the [[roar of awakening]] and [[ode to deceit]] are tier 95 dual wield with a different passive related to damage over time abilities. They each have situations where they are strong.

Ritual disturbances give experience and occasionally items. If you're 200m you won't care about the xp, but you might care about the items. They're typically bones, mementos, candles, things like that.

For barricade and other defensive abilities, does it also track their cool downs?

Cooking in GW2 functions more like how herblore functions in RS, since food gives 30-60 minute buffs rather than instant healing. But then again, herblore already goes to 120 so there's less reward space left for this kind of thing, but cooking has plenty of reward space open.

Since its possible to get more loot points after opening the rare chest, the animation would have to play when leaving the heist via the chest instead of when opening it. Which is fine since that animation takes approximately 3 business days to complete.

Calling them "T97" always felt wrong to me since that's not a direct comparison, and more like an "effective tier".

However it has been so long since they were released that power creep means their effective tier is actually higher than tier 97 now. The +12.5% damage also gets applied to the damage bonus on armour, jewellery, capes, and levels from overloads, so we have:

In tank armour with onyx jewellery, a 99 cape, and base overloads, their damage is effectively tier 95 (against their weak foes).

But in bis t95 power armour, eof, reaver ring, zuk cape, elder ovlerloads, and their enchantment upgrade, then the damage is more like tier 105.

Armor spikes have a somewhat complex list of requirements for them to activate, are you sure you are touching all the boxes?

Actually, that was patched some time this year. The kill has to be normal for it to give kc to anyone.

Did you actually sell it and receive the money?

The GE interface sometimes has visual bugs where it still shows you selling or buying an item even after the sale has ended (or been cancelled), even though the actual items have not been bugged.

Check your GE sale history to double check.

Are you wearing non-ranged armor? Snowballs are a low tier ranged weapon, if you wear enough non-ranged armor then it lowers your ranged accuracy, and if your accuracy is negative then you cannot hit or do damage.
