We’ve been toiling away in the balancing fields for the past few weeks, but now the time has come to harvest a fresh batch of updates. Read on to find out more about the Player Owned Farm changes and the final stages of the Bank Placeholders and Improvements Beta.

Player Owned Farm
As you might have heard, there’s been a few changes down on the farm. Last week, we addressed some of your biggest concerns about the update to Player Owned Farms and laid out how we planned to fix them.

Today’s update sees these changes out in the wild. You can look forward to an improved XP-to-effort ratio, a deeper farming experience, and more player-to-player interactions than you can shake a rake at. Why not head on down to Ardougne and check out the new and improved farm for yourself?

Bank Placeholders and Improvements
A new Bank Placeholders and Improvements Beta will launch on Tuesday September 17th. If all goes according to plan, the full update will appear in-game at the end of the month.

Don’t relax just yet, though – we still need you to play the Beta and then tell us your thoughts on Discord, Twitter, Reddit, or the official forums. Your feedback is crucial. In fact, we’re banking on it.

New Merch
A selection of smartphone covers have just arrived in the official merch store. Now you can carry a map of Gielinor everywhere you go!

The cases come in both hard back poly-carbonate and shock-absorbent soft gel versions, suitable for any adventure.

Check them out here!
Raffle Reminder
Balthazar’s Big Raffle is still in full swing until the end of September. Trade in your tickets to win amazing prizes, including an all new golden version of Linza the Disgraced’s equipment.

Want more tickets? Track down Gilly Willikers and complete challenges each day to get more! Or, exchange a bond to have Balthazar hand over all the tickets you’ve missed from him so far – he’ll even keep hold of any you miss in the future until the end of the event.

Patch notes
There is a bumper crop of patches this week. To read this week’s patch notes in full, click here.

Combat
Troll chuckers, shamans and brutes in the Burthorpe troll cave all now have an equal chance to drop charms, and therefore strange/gold rocks (but only when you have unlocked the Taverley path book, or have a skill level total of 250 or greater).
An issue where some of the curse prayers would stall the player and fail to initiate a Telos encounter has been fixed.
Players can now correctly unlock the Perdita pet after killing Solak 1000 times.
