May 2022 - Champion Cape, Gnomish Firelighter, Bare handed skilling and More!

 

Champion's Cape

You can get this cape by turning in all 10 champion scrolls to Larxus, who is located in the basement of the Champions' Guild. You can get there by going through the trapdoor in the Champions' Guild. Whenever someone does acquire this cape it will be broadcasted.

All 10 champion scrolls are dropped at a rate of 1/2500 from the respective monsters, you can find which monsters drop each scroll with the command ::drops.

The list of champion scrolls is: Earth Warrior, Lesser Demon, Goblin, Giant, Ghoul, Jogre, Zombie, Skeleton, Imp and Hobgoblin.

 

Gnomish Firelighter

Functionality

The gnomish firelighter functions as a storage container to put your fire lighters in, to save on bank spaces for people who keep the firelighters from clue scrolls.

This item comes from medium clue scrolls, with this addition the collection log page for medium clue scrolls can now be finished.

 

Bare-Handed Skilling

Fishing

You can now bare hand fish Tuna, Swordfish and Shark.

The required levels for each are as follows:
Tuna: 55 Fishing and 35 Strength
Swordfish: 70 Fishing and 50 Strength
Shark: 96 Fishing and 76 Strength

This method of catching fish is in no way slower than with the normal tools, dragon and crystal harpoons on the other hand are still faster of course. This method gives strength experience like in osrs, ideal for strength pures.

 

Hunter

You can now bare-hand catch bats in the Chambers of Xeric if you are 99 hunter.
All the bat types give points in the raid, counting towards your total bat points cap as it does in osrs. If you cooked them yourself you get lower points than if you get them from other people, also like in osrs.

Other News:

• We plan to release the Inquisitor armor set by the end of the weekend (family events depending) and the plan will be to have three random fragments (map pieces) spread throughout our current content such as COX, Boss Slayer and we are not certain on the third. Once you have obtained all the fragments (which will have a random drop chance) you will be able to put those together and provide them to Freja at the Myth's guild for a reward coffin or casket that he obtained during her adventures. This casket will then have a random chance to obtain a piece of the armor.
   
• We plan to release the Amulet of Blood Fury by the end of the weekend (family events depending) and the plan will be to have it obtainable at a rarer rate by the current Vyrewatch and the ability to pickpocket it from the current Vyrewatches at the rate of 1/5000 as provided on the OSRS wiki.

 

I understand that releasing this content in the method we are is not considered a 1 on 1 with Old School Runescape but in the future we will revert these changes when that content becomes available. Felix and Carl have been working hard on screening developers from across the RSPS community and I have been working with someone in real-life with experience and expertise to provide us with some guidance when we come into a crossroad above my knowledge. Cresinkel has also stepped in to provide some assistance and he has provided us with some of the smaller content updates for this pre-update.
