Patch Notes
This week’s Patch Notes are anything but patchy, so here’s the highlights to get you started:

Increased the value of certain upgraded items to ensure they were more valuable than their pre-upgrade counterparts.
At the request of clue hunters, a teleport to Turael's previous location in Taverley has been added to the Spell Book – it currently uses the Trollheim Teleport spell icon.
Added the ability to sheathe and unsheathe weapons on mobile with a long press on the Combat Mode Toggle button.
You can see the full list of changes and fixes from this week in the dedicated Patch Notes post.

Mobile

Have you already been exploring Gielinor on your Android device? This week we've been focusing on making that experience super smooth, with changes to menus, buttons, and more! All of these changes will also apply to the RuneScape iOS Closed Beta when that arrives!

Changes
Added the ability to sheathe and unsheathe weapons on mobile with a long-press on the Combat Mode Toggle button.
Removed the scrollbar from the minimised Chat view on mobile.
Updated the Constitution Skill Guide to remove references to PC terminology on mobile.
Removed PC terminology from the Wardrobe UI on mobile.
Improved clan invite flow for mobile.
Updated mobile checkboxes on the Skill Guide to be visually and functionally consistent.
Mobile users will now be able to see the previous display name of a friend who has changed their name. Pressing and holding on their name in the Friends List will show a tooltip and open more options.
Mobile players can now see the animals' traits by long pressing them in the Trade menu.
Added a check to make the 'Worn Equipment Stats' button on the Worn Equipment UI only affect the top level version, and not the Hero Loadout.
Further minor tweaks to the layout of the Clan Citadel Minigames UI on mobile.
Padded the sizing for longer tooltips on mobile.
Fixed an issue that was preventing the in-combat border from appearing while viewing the Home Screen.
Further improvements have been made to the the way object tooltips and Options menus are drawn. This prevents clipping issues with longer lines of text.
Users can now tap on the icon for a handicap to see its effect in the 'Decide Your Handicap' UI inside the Dominion Tower.
While using the Home Teleport spell on mobile, pressing and holding on any lodestone will reveal a tooltip with the name of the destination.
Fixes
Fixed an issue which caused the buttons on the Friends Chat List to overlap.
Fixed an issue where the Friends List was sorted incorrectly, resulting in clipped text.
Fixed an issue with Friends and Ignore list name sorting. Both lists can now be sorted independently from one another.
Resolved a minor issue that caused the filter button to be removed when swapping between resized Friends and Ignore list windows.
Fixed an issue that was showing the Invention Materials Pouch button on the Backpack prior to unlocking it during the Invention tutorial.
Fixed an issue on mobile which caused previously selected graphical settings to be highlighted.
Fixed an issue with the Currencies overlay on the Backpack that was causing currency to appear in a different order on each.
Resolved a problem with player choice options sometimes rendering at an incorrect size.
Fixed a performance issue which caused a significant FPS drop after adjusting specific settings on the Graphics interface.
Fixed an issue that would cause the Chat Window Settings list to remain open if a user selected 'My Examine Settings'.

Other

Changes
The 'Bank All' option on tetracompass ancient caskets will now prioritise adding items to Material Storage above the player's Bank.
An ancient casket has been added to the Archaeology Guild office. The casket will temporarily store items from tetracompass reward caskets that the player did not have room for.
Removed a message which erroneously informed some players that they have Gold Premier Club 2018 rewards left to claim.
Hid the Clan Cup button on the Clan Chat List, as the event is long since over.
Updated the tooltip for the Dragon Battleaxe special attack to more accurately reflect its effect.
Removed the chisel from the room in Daemonheim where the player must carve a weapon for one of three statues.
The Varrock Museum Curator will no longer talk about the expedition to Anachronia as though it is currently happening.
When using a fire, the option to cook food was showing logs as the icon. This has been updated to a piece of meat instead.
Increased the value of certain upgraded items to ensure they're more valuable than their pre-upgrade counterparts.
Updated the congratulations message for the 'Blast and Hellfire' achievement to no longer reference outdated content.
Removed references to outdated content from the Sparky skilling pet.
The Ability Bar tutorial during the Burthorpe FTUE now better accounts for players who have unbound their Secondary Action Bar.
Added the numerical percentage onto the 'Corrupted' debuff icon in the Sophanem Slayer Dungeon.
At the request of clue hunters, a teleport to Turael's previous location in Taverley has been added to the spell book. It currently uses the Trollheim Teleport icon.
A pile of rubble that can be found during the Enakhra's Lament quest was allowing players to acquire a large amount of extra fine sand at a much faster rate. A delay has now been added to put this in line with existing methods of obtaining sandstone.
Added examine text to the Raptor's outfits in the Chest interface.
The 'Slayer Points' dummy item has been removed from Grand Exchange search results.
Moved the old Bank area on the Ranch out of Time to the new Bank Chest location.

Fixes
Summoning a spirit graahk with a pet override will no longer cause stretching.
Scrimshaws of Aggression will now work on vile blooms.
A script error that occurred when using Felix as an override for the granite crab and smoke devil familiars has been fixed.
An error that appeared when certain members-only items were appearing on Treasure Hunter for free-to-play players has been fixed.
Attempting to read the Yak Track task list after the Yak Track event is over will no longer disconnect the player.
Fixed an issue where Archaeology Skill Guide information was populating other Skill Guides.
Fixed an issue which caused the red combat vignette to not appear if the user opened an interface while in combat.
Fixed an issue which caused the level up icon to be partially cropped when opening a full-screen interface.

Archaeology Engagement Survey: Part Three
The third part of our Archaeology Engagement Survey is live now, and we’d appreciate it if you could take a look and tell us your thoughts!

Our aim here is to understand if we're improving the ways we deliver information to you. This is why we're asking for just 7-8 minutes of your time to answer a few questions and help us figure out how well we’re doing.

Since we know that your time is precious, we’re throwing in a special reward. Anyone who completes the survey will have the chance to win one of three six-month RuneScape membership packages. You’ve got to be in it to win it, though!

You can find the survey here. Thanks again for participating!

Archaeology x Razer Player Gallery Winners
Good news, everybody! After much deliberation, the RuneScape team have decided on the winners of the Archaeology Player Gallery.

In 1st place is HRH Violet, who wowed us all with an adorable knitted Archie plush. Give him a cuddle from us!

In second place, we have Zeveres, with this beautiful painting of Everlight. We love the colours in this one.

A Razer Kraken Ultimate gaming headset is winging its way to you two as we speak, along with six months of RuneScape membership. Enjoy!

Bunny Riven’s pylon art also called to us – which is why they’re walking away with third place, and three Bonds!

We just couldn’t choose between Teezkut’s incredible Imcando Mattock prop and Scarllet’s Kharid-et adventure – so both of them are tied for fourth place and will receive three Bonds each.

And in an unprecedented twist, there’s also a tie for fifth place! Congratulations to Nobuine and Suizzy, who have both won three Bonds.

Last but by no means least, we have our Honourable Mentions. Korzor22550, Kaitlyn, and Well Miller have all won Bonds. Well done!

You can see all of the winners down below.
