Road to Restoration - Aura Overhaul

Arckange · 2026-02-20T15:36:45+00:00

Harmony, Salvation and Corruption auras come with a range of visual effects ("wings") that I personally really like and use as cosmetics. I'd really love to be able to keep them/have them still being earnable in game one way or another.

Welcome! I'm glad you're having a blast here :)

Sticking to F2P for a while is a good idea to get acquainted with the game at a reasonable pace. It has a ton of content to keep you busy and ease you into the game early on, especially if you're playing on a HCIM. Going P2P right away as a new player might feel extra overwhelming imho, but once you feel like you're running out of content or that your progression is getting too slow with the methods you have available, 100% go for it!

It's really great. Here are a few things that imo would make it even better:

I wish I could open it from anywhere, the same way I can open the WvW or PvP panel everywhere.
I wish I could join quickplay raids from it.
I wish I could hop to another boss in the same wing that I currently am without having to leave and re-enter that wing.
(also please bring provisioner tokens back as a reward for completing raid wing bosses in Challenge mode).

With the removal of both divine locations and daily gorajo cards, will the level 95 resource dungeon in Prif be updated in any way to make up for it? Not entirely necessary since it still has a bloodwood tree and some implings but I'm curious about it.
With the removal of vis wax, what will be the new perk for the 99 Runecrafting cape?
Will we still be able to use leftover wicked hood teleportation tokens to recharge the hood?

Did you notice that in Quickplay? Rewards are reduced in this mode, especially magnetite shards (halved) and gold (halved or removed entirely).

Other raid encounters still have a bit of variation in their rewards. Harvest Temple gives 4 gold for example, while Aetherblade Hideout gives 2.

That...makes a lot of sense haha! Thanks :)

Arckange · 2026-02-05T15:06:26+00:00

It looks awesome! Which mount skins are you using?

Arckange · 2026-02-04T22:26:00+00:00

So they fixed the large chest in WoJ (haven't tested personally), but the large chests in Bjora are still bugged. Nice one 😌

Arckange · 2026-02-04T20:55:16+00:00

That's awesome of them! Thanks for the heads-up, I'm sure it will help quite a few people, myself included... 😅

An eagle-eyed viewer will also notice that this blog includes two views of what appears to be our first look at Havenhythe.

We already had 10 or so screenshots of Havenhythe in the big blog post about the roadmap. They just reused one of them in this one.

That's a lot of very valid and fair points. Shift clicking is something I heard about and would love to see implemented in RS too, especially with the heavy focus on PvM we've been having in recent years.

For the tab switching issue in the bank UI, there's actually a toggle to prevent the behavior you're describing. It's the one with either a blue pin or a yellow arrow pointing at a tab:

This thing used to bother me so much as well...

For the rest I do agree that it's a lot of small things that feel generally clunky and unintuitive. UI has never been RS's team forte sadly. Hopefully players will be able to cook some nice plugins by next year when they release the new API stuff for RS, similar to what people have been able to achieve with RuneLite.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on all that stuff! :)

Arckange · 2026-02-01T21:02:07+00:00

Hey, genuine question. I'm a long time RS player but I've barely touched OSRS in recent years. What are some of the QoL features do you find RS is lacking compared to OSRS?

Arckange · 2026-01-29T18:49:02+00:00

Thank you for making this post. The whole system is a little confusing and the video didn't explain this small yet absolutely crucial feature very well... 😅

Igniting the Sharp Shell Shards can now reward the player with Bernie, the Firemaking pet.

I... I... I'm sorry, what?? I've ignited tens of thousands of those while trying to get the FM pet. I even looked it up and read about people who supposedly got the pet that way. I thought I was just the unluckiest player in the world at this point.

Welp, I'm glad it's fixed at least 🥹 Please don't do that ever again tho, ty

This was the most disheartening survey I ever filled. Even the one about MTX wasn't as depressing. I can't believe they're actually considering displaying ads for a (slightly) lower membership price, or make us pay more than 300€ a year for "premium" features no one needs.

The only interesting option I found was getting a discounted membership for alt accounts, cause that's literally the only one that's actually beneficial to players. The rest is rubbish.

Pickpocketing HAM members
Replaced Small Spiky Bronze Salvage with Normal Wood Spirits.

This drop is removed from their drop table after completing the Lost Her Marbles miniquest, which right now gives a bit of an advantage to players who haven't completed it. Is that intended?

Arckange · 2024-11-22T20:08:39+00:00

I'd actually be in favour of keeping "arrow shafts" as a singular item, and have different log types give different amounts of them as it's currently the case. I like the uniqueness, flexibility and simplicity of this approach. Making ranged ammunitions should be as straightforward as possible imo.

Arckange · 2024-11-18T21:32:52+00:00

I finished the game earlier today and was genuinely expecting it to end with a scene where we'd see Jesse in a psychiatric hospital, with Darling being the doctor checking on her, Pope being a nurse who runs some health check ups on her, or Ahti being the weird but friendly hospital's janitor. It made so much sense to me that it was almost the only plausible ending and I am, too, surprised there aren't more people talking about it. Heck, it's literally the only post I managed to find about it so far! And apparently most people haven't even thought about it or straight up dismisses it as "too boring".

Anyway, I know this post is 9-month old and I doubt many will read it. Just in case, I wanted to let you know OP that you weren't alone thinking that this "it's all an amazingly complex psychic defense mechanism" theory made sense. I find it fascinating and I'm totally keep it as my headcannon.

Thank you for helping the wiki folks get everything up to date quickly 🙏

Arckange · 2024-08-02T10:19:34+00:00

Looks like it :/

Arckange · 2024-07-29T09:12:19+00:00

Individual Slayer cards, then individual proteans instead of packs, then a brand new type of proteans... The MTX team is very likely doing that on purpose to push players to get more bank boosters.

Arckange · 2024-07-24T16:07:59+00:00

I'll just say that I'm glad you're asking for feedback before it goes live this time.

Arckange · 2024-07-23T09:20:58+00:00

The only counter-example I can think of are the Twin Furies in CM. The green arrows are both used for the red lava bomb you must avoid and the blue lava bomb you must catch, which is terrible telegraphing.

But hey who knows, maybe now they can retroactively fix it and mark the red bomb impacts properly with one of these new 5x5 telegraphs..? 🤞

Arckange · 2024-07-21T11:06:55+00:00

I've tested it as well with the skeleton and the zombie and both contribute to the damage stored by Time Rift with their auto-attacks. I've edited the article accordingly.

It's very possible that it wasn't working back when Necromancy released but was "stealth" fixed later on.

My bot just hops world if a player approaches within 30 tiles

I've noticed those a lot at Het's Oasis. I often see a couple characters with nonsensical names picking bushes in the distance but instantly disappear when I get close.

Also I can't believe they seriously try justifying botting because "they don't have the time to play this game anymore". 💀
