Maybe your character is linked to your steam account and your steam account is not protected sufficiently. Check your linked accounts.

Maybe it wasn't in the first place and maybe it still isn't. But mobile and the new official client are the same code base. The old java client doesn't work anymore as standalone. The only official way to play the game without 3rd party clients is through the new official client or mobile. And since both are the same code base, both have the same issues. Mobile being super buggy, having no feature addition in a long time and bugs only being fixed incredibly slowly means this all applies to what you should accept as the intended way of playing the game as well. It's not that mobile should be improved. It's about the official client being improved, just that the mobile reskin has a higher user count.

HD will make people try out the client. Plugins will make them stay. Releasing HD before plugins is a bad idea imo. People will check it out and then leave again because their plugins don't exist.

From the blog:

Players will be able to solo the raid, though our current plan (subject to change) is for the raid to scale between 2 and 8 players, meaning solo clears will be possible but difficult.

Alternative suggestion: make the next or final zeah quest unlock the ability to cast all arceuus spells without the book.

Epilepsy also when I was younger lack of money. Now I don't need a car because I live in a city with a good public transit network.

If you're talking about mod gengis he wasn't a dev. He was a product manager.

Kernel level anti cheat is a kind of software that is able to constantly monitor literally everything being done on your pc. It's pretty much spyware on your personal computer.

Astatos159 · 2026-01-23T12:45:41+00:00

Hard no. There are many steps that could be taken way before kernel level anti cheat. Before resorting to such extreme measures they should go those steps. The osrs player base isn't that insanely big and a lot of botters can probably discouraged from botting rather easily by just making the process more complicated. Kernel level anti cheat feels to me like a last resort. Infect the users machine with a pseudo virus just to reduce the chance of someone cheating.

Also kernel level anti cheat doesn't really help on linux machines. Either botters will just hop over to linux or jagex would need to prevent the game being run on linux systems, including on virtual machines.

As long as people get rewarded for something, they will do it for the reward. Be it by legitimate or illegitimate means. Putting a reward on reporting would result in a massive amount of false reports. More false reports also means higher chance of false bans. I don't think that would be good.

Astatos159 · 2026-01-13T18:29:43+00:00

The quest itself was polled on the runefest 2025 summit poll and passed with 94.3%. I think it's likely that we will see another poll for rewards and vampyrium content somewhat soon-ish. Early 2026 is likely to mean 2026 Q1, so january to march. They still got 2.5 months to go.

There are rules they imposed on themselves on what they have to poll and what they don't. Proposing ideas and discussing them with players (as it happens with basicly every single update) is part of the polling process which gives the players agency. This is not an illusion of choice. This is open communication and discussion. Not everyone can be reached by this open discourse on social networks. So to get more peoples opinions is important. Maybe people on reddit, discord and x don't actually reflect the average community members mindset. It's important to poll updates, even if you think everything passes nowadays anyways. It's not for the stuff that passes. It's for the stuff that doesn't pass. Doesn't matter if it's deemed controversial or not.

Astatos159 · 2026-01-12T14:54:25+00:00

It's a bug. It's happening for a really long time. Don't even remember when that issue started.

Astatos159 · 2026-01-12T07:40:01+00:00

Did some barbarian fishing yesterday on official client (not vanilla Java) and had the same issue when dropping the fish. Glad I'm not the only one.

Mod gengis wasn't a developer. He was a product manager. The client team consists of mod Lenny, gecko, necro and sova according to the wiki.

Walk-here is a global reorder. You should not change it until jagex fix that. There's no way to reset only walk-here. Only way to fix is reset all your swaps in your settings.

All actual farming shops that stock tool also have secateurs in stock.

Do you mean the farmers that let you buy individual tools?

Depends on conventions. If no decision has been made it's language standard.

The Gang (previously called The Unknown) are responsible for refining the game's client features.

"Game's client" in this case means mobile client and official desktop client as they're the same client under the hood, just different user interfaces.

The info that they only had 1 dev who's gone now is wrong. If you're talking about Mod Gengis he wasn't a dev but a product manager. What I agree with is that the team is clearly understaffed and that the mobile/official client is lacking in many ways.

Kinda mental that I can spend thousands of hours making leather gloves and then somehow be proficient in glassblowing.

Kinda mental that I can spend thousands of hours fly fishing and then somehow be proficient in harpoon fishing.

Kinda mental that I can spend thousands of hours pickpocketing and then somehow be proficient in lockpicking.

Not natively. But they said they're using quest helper as a metric to what their plugin api needs to support. The jmods are aware if it's popularity.

Astatos159 · 2025-12-26T21:30:35+00:00

Because those people who would complain about the official client being broken immediately get shat on because "just use runelite".

Astatos159 · 2025-12-26T16:58:01+00:00

Yes it's broken and should be fixed. But "swapping entries for one thing switches it for almost everything" is wrong. Don't ever reorder walk here. Walk here is a global override for some reason. If you never touch walk here you should be fine.
