November 2022 - Aerial Fishing + More

 

Aerial Fishing
This might come as a surprise whilst we are in beta phase for TOB to have a skilling method come out. I must thank @BurninLovefor giving me the inspiration for this part of the update. This training method has been implemented identical to OSRS with 2 exceptions: the rate of catching a Golden Tench and Molch Pearls. The rate for the golden tench has been reduced to 1/2k instead of 1/20k and the formula for Molch Pearls is as shown below.

Molch Pearls Formula:
1 in (99 - (3x/4)) where x = ((2 * fishing level + hunter level) / 3)

Which means:
1/25 for 99 hunter and 99 Fishing
1/32 for 90 hunter and 90 Fishing
1/39 for 80 hunter and 80 Fishing
....

Brimhaven Agility Arena

The Brimhaven Agility Arena is here! Mostly 1:1 besides the following changes relative to osrs:

Instead of being able to buy agility xp with the tickets you can buy antique lamps, to level any skill you'd like.

There are more items to be bought with this minigame! Check the shop out by talking to Cap'n Izzy No-Beard.

Celestial Signet
 

The Celestial ring, Elven signet and the Celestial signet have all been added with the exact same effects like in osrs. Besides the Celestial kinds, they work on every type of ore, not just addy and lower.

Hello Community,

I have been working some crazy hours since the 1st of July because of our staffing shortage (My current schedule is M-S 7AM to 7PM with a 2 hour total travel time) so I have not been able to push much content since Cresinkel has been on vacation but with my recent exploration on my Ironman I have increased my motivation dramatically and plan to keep the updates/changes coming.

 

Sincerely,

Matt
