Pink Skirt Events
We're really pleased that so many of you are enjoying the Mining & Smithing Rework. The number of you smashing rocks and lashing metal continues to climb, and we're hugely appreciative of all the feedback we've received.
So this week we thought we'd veer away from hitting things and instead... actually no, that's a massive lie. This week we're about hitting even more things with some highly anticipated quality of life updates for Combat!
Combat Week
To give you a small teaser, here's just some of what you can expect in this update:
- The damage modifiers from damage enhancing scrimshaws, Berseker auras and the Metamorphosis ability are now calculated earlier. This means that bosses phase correctly when they reach their HP threshold and mechanics that rely on damage to progress (such as Telos' tendrils or Vorago's pushback phases (Phase 5 - Normal Mode, Phase 10/11 - Hard Mode)) will now take the additional damage from the modifiers into the equation.
- Performing abilities whilst moving with revolution enabled will now correctly play attack animations.
- An issue causing AoE spells, such as the burst and barrage ancient magicks, to not award adrenaline correctly has been fixed.
- Should the Mutated Dazing Shot ability or Salt the Wound miss on your enemy, the timer for Puncture will now still extend.
- We now permit a worn slot to be added to an action bar slot, allowing you to use that slot's options even when switching items.
You can read the full patch notes here!
Combat
An issue causing AoE spells, such as the burst and barrage ancient magicks, to not award adrenaline correctly has been fixed.
Performing abilities whilst moving with revolution enabled will now correctly play attack animations.
Added a small delay when equipping items from the action bar so that they can't accidentally be instantly removed.
The Provoke ability can no longer accidentally be triggered when equipping a Barrows shield.
Should the Mutated Dazing Shot ability or Salt the Wound miss on your enemy, the timer for Puncture will now still extend.
The Mutated Dazing Shot ability puncture effect will no longer cause Nex to heal during the blood siphon phase.
Ability queuing will no longer stop the buff from Needle strike going to the following ability.
Ability queuing will no longer stall the players movement after using an ability.
Ability queuing no longer stops 'on-tick' heals with the Resonance ability.
Seren Godbow special attack changes:
Fixed an issue with some of the damage calculations.
The special attack now ensures damage bonuses are applied correctly, for example Death's Swiftness.
The Bladed dive ability will no longer change the direction the player is facing shortly after using it.
Bladed dive will now award adrenaline when being used to enter combat.
Using a basic ability while running in to combat will now award adrenaline correctly.
Bladed Dive will no longer allow you to click on another player when activating it outside PvP
The damage modifiers from damage enhancing scrimshaws, Berseker auras and the Metamorphosis ability are now calculated earlier. This means that bosses phase correctly when they reach their HP threshold and mechanics that rely on damage to progress (such as Telos' tendrils or Vorago's pushback phases (Phase 5 - Normal Mode, Phase 10/11 - Hard Mode)) will now take the additional damage from the modifiers into the equation.
Boss kill time messages are no longer filtered.
There is no longer a small delay of the character after using the Snipe ability with Nightmare gauntlets equipped.

The phase transitions for Rune Dragons has been vastly improved and made smoother.
The book of death effect should now correctly work when fighting Rune Dragons.
Removed a delay when activating the Metamorphosis ability.

You can now quickchat your current Telos killstreak and enrage as well as quickchat your highest killstreak
When viewing Telos in the beast tab it'll now display your highest killstreak
Added a small delay after first activating the Reprisal ability so that its effect cannot be immediately triggered by accident.

Players that remained in Solak's mind from phase 3 to 4 will no longer get teleported back to the base map after their 10 seconds are up.
Fixed an issue where certain abilities and actions were stopping Solak from awarding loot.

Kill count for Solak will no longer be awarded after dying and then standing in a different Solak instance.
The instakill on phase 4 of Solak will no longer hit players that died in that battle and then stood in a different Solak instance.
An issue that could cause players to not be able to properly transition into phase 4 if a member of the team died and created their own Solak instance has been resolved.

Valkyrie's Return!
Hati, Skoll & Fenrir are back! In a revamp of the yearly event you've come to expect, assist Eir in summoning her Valkyrie companions!
Old powers are stirring in Gielinor. Fenrir, Hati and Skoll have returned to roam the land once more and the fallen heroes of Valhalla grow restless. Eir believes the End of Things is coming sooner than expected and that it’s time for the Valkyries to reunite and prepare for the battles ahead.
Gather Valkyrie feathers through skilling, combat, daily challenges and defeating the winter wolves and return them to Eir to help her summon her companions in exchange for legendary rewards such as a Tiny Valkyrie Bobblehead, or a bunch of Jormungand weapons plus an additional cape!
Runecoins can be spent to directly buy the currency. Additionally there is no limit on the amount of currency a player can earn a day!
This event will run until Monday the 11th of Feburary.
