Owner Jaedmo 781 Posted October 18, 2023 Owner Share Posted October 18, 2023 Wow, what a marathon update. It's been a long time coming. The first tease/concept was in February and here we are 8 months later! I really hope you all enjoy what this update brings. [+] General Changes - Nerfed the subsequent crit damage of Fractured staff of armadyl by about 10% - Added Dragon 2h sword drop to Giant Mole - Altar of War will now restore Summoning points for everyone, instead of locking it behind Silver member - All Skilling outfits are now handled properly, owning them or having them in Diango will now count towards the All-in-one skilling outfit requirements, you no longer need to sacrifice them - Added Master farmer hat teleport options (no others) - You can now use Bank command in the Wilderness - Group ironmen can now store Augmented Fractured Staff of Armadyl in their group bank - '2k' is now a valid answer to the Harmonic dust question on Trivia - Removed GWD2 essence drops from Global announcement - Added a teleport for Crocodiles - Changed the Master command to ;;lunar and ;;ancient - Teleporting to the Max guild now restores Summoning points - Added a more noticeable message above the player's head when receiving an event token NPC drop - Added Heated tea flask functionality - Adding an item to your toolbelt will now automatically remove the inferior tool already inside - Telos Killcount leaderboards will now announce like others - Added a 5% chance to receive double resources from Croesus hunter and Mining when using the Perfect plus potion - Summoning the same familiar you already have out will now extend it's timer - You can now summon familiars from the Bank interface - Lowered the amount of thrashing water in the Masuta fight from 12-14 to 5-7 - Added a 'Load last preset' button to Home and Donor zone banks - Boosted the max troves you can receive per hour from 10 to 10/12/14/16/18/20 (Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum/Diamond/Master) (You need t6 ring) - Halved the respawn delay of GWD2 bosses - Added Abyssal bane creation and effects, you can now utilise Abyssalbane equipment/ammo for increased damage and hit chanceagainst Abyssal creatures - Surge now requires 30 Agility instead of 30 Magic [+] Ataraxia Perk Tree - God damn, well, better get started writing this. - Massive thanks to Neutrino for helping bring this idea to you all. Neutrino's consistent drive to get the interface exactly how I envisioned is why it looks as good as it does today. - The Ataraxia Perk Tree is finally here! - There will be a lot of information threads on how this works, the points you can get etc, but I will still detail it all here. - The Perk Tree is an extensive path of exciting new combat, skilling and utility perks that will reshape the way you play Ataraxia! - In order to progress, you will need to sacrifice your items, each item will give you a certain amount of points, the more expensive/rarer the item, the more points you're set to receive. - You can find the Perk Tree at ;;home or by typing ;;tree (if you are master member this will just open the Perk tree interface): - Well, here's the tree: The image was too big for one screenshot, I know it's not perf. [+] The Perks Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3 - Some perks will need more explanation: Costume Box: All Elite outfits owned by your account will be automatically applied at all times, you don't need to destroy or hand them in, simply having them or having them in Diango will count while skilling. For Shark outfit, you'll obviously need the set to enable/disable consume. Warrior: Applies 'Dismember' on the target (buffed by Strength cape and Hemorrhaging hits): Voracious Voter: Will grant double the chance of dollars from Voting, +250k on each vote, an extra clue box per vote, extra key per vote and a chance of hitting the 'super rare' loot table. Rapid Ranger: Applies 'Rapid Fire' on the target: Pathfinder: Can only be utilised in Solo instances Animal Whisperer: Poison tier of Poison bomb from 1 to 2 Doubles duration of all Powerburst potions Double strikes for Masterstroke Doubles duration of Vulnerable bomb Increases duration of freeze from Sticky bomb The Gatherer: Home/Donator Thieving stalls are 1 tick quicker Fishing has +15% success Archaeology has +15% precision Divination harvesting is 1 tick quicker Mining has +15% damage Woodcutting has +15% accuracy Hunter has +15% success rate Event Enjoyer: Allows you to pick an event group (Skilling or Combat) for your random event Run it Again: Does not work for: Vorago, Rise of the Six, Telos, Arch Glacor, Araxxor, Croesus, Nex: AoD and Solak Heroic Ascendancy: Provides the following bonuses: Hazelmere's Signet Ring: 6% chance to double drops instead of 4%, you can now store your Matriarch rings inside the Hazelmere's for their passive boosts Hazelmere's Signet Ring (i): 8% chance to double drops instead of 4%, you can now store your Matriarch rings inside the Hazelmere's for their passive boost Guildmaster Tony's Mattock: Doubles the chance of receiving a damaged Artifact while excavating Tavia's Fishing Rod: Notes all Fish caught and provides 100% uptime on all Deep sea fishing boosts Orlando Smith's Hat: Provides a 10% chance to just receive the casket when opening a clue, doubles chance of receiving lower tier caskets from casket rewards [+] Sacrificing Items - On your spellbook, you will see a new spell in the Skillng section (on every spellbook): 'Sacrifice' - This spell works similarly to High alchemy, you can put it on your Action bar or simply click it from your Spellbook: - You will then be able to pick an item from your inventory to Sacrifice: - Doing so will then open a Warning interface: - Selecting Ok will then grant you the points and let you know how many you have total: THIS ACTION IS IRREVERSIBLE, SACRIFICED ITEMS CAN'T BE RESTORED. - You can also sacrifice noted items: - Sacrificing dyed equipment will provide a multiplier to the item that is dyed.. Barrows: 1.075x Shadow: 1.1x Third-Age: 1.125x Blood: 1.15x Ice: 1.175x - So for example, sacrificing a Fractured Staff of Armadyl will give you 2,500 points, but if you sacrifice a Fractured Staff of Armadyl (ice) you'll receive 2,937 points, making your Ice dye worth approximately 437 points. - So what items can you sacrifice? Here's a Google sheet with all of the items and their values: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cmvhPAqrytnDc5nBM_meuyI0nsI0uZnvmg59ewnECHY/edit?usp=sharing [+] Halloween Event - With the Perk tree taking a large part of our focus the last month or so, we didn't have time to come up with a unique Halloween event... That being said.. - There are a few different things going on this Halloween on Ataraxia! - Firstly, playing the game, completing activities etc will give you 2023 Halloween Tokens, which can be spent in the following store: - Most of it is just cosmetic, however, making a return this year is the titles: - And the limited edition Cremation and Herb burning codexes: [+] Cremation - Using the Lava crater at the Donator zone, with the Cremation ability unlocked, you can now incinerate any bones to receive Firemaking and Prayer experience: - This is the best possible way to use your Bones for Prayer experience. - All bones provide slightly higher experience than the Chaos altar and as an added bonus you gain a large amount of Firemaking experience [+] Herb Burning - Using the Herb burner at the Donator zone, with the Herb burning ability unlocked, you can now burn any clean herbs to receive Firemaking and Herblore experience: - This is an excellent way to train Herblore if you don't want to make any potions or have some left over herbs that aren't usable for any relevant potions..! [+] Unstable Rift - To start the event, type ;;hween, before I explain it myself, it's mirrored from the 2018 RS3 event: https://runescape.wiki/w/2018_Hallowe'en_event - You can talk to Death to receive a tutorial! - To simplify, you must stabilise the 5 pillars surrounding the Chaotic rift, this will grant you either: Crafting, Divination, Invention, Magic, Runecrafting, Prayer, Smithing or Summoning experience, if you switch between Pillars you will receive more experience, the experience gained also scales with your level - You can tell the progress of the stabilisation from the particles surrounding the pillars, once fully stabilised it will be glowing at the top of the pillar, encouraging you to stabilise the others: - Once all pillars are stabilised, you can enter the Warped chamber which will contain urns, you can break these to receive Halloween Tokens & rewards from this table: https://runescape.wiki/w/Warped_chamber - Following this, the pillars will go on cooldown until they reset 4 hours after they spawned, in which they'll all rotate with the same skills on different pillars [+] Grim Harvest - Grim Harvest is a new Treasure Hunter promotion! - Similarly to Santa's grotto, each key builds towards a bonus: - You can also receive the Halloween Oddments or 'H'oddments' during the Treasure Hunter promotion which can be spent in the following store for limited time cosmetic items, animations and pets: [+] New Treasure Hunter Rotations - It's been a while since we introduced the weekly rotating Treasure Hunter, Multi was running out of ideas, so Armar has added some more for him to pick between: [+] Vault of Riches - Vault of Riches works quite simply. You have a % chance to contribute keys towards an Emerald, Ruby or Diamond chest - Emerald being the 'default' and Ruby/Diamond being the better ones with rarer rewards: - You can unlock rare titles and overrides: - We won't talk about the clear Avengers rip off.. I don't think we're really able to comment on that given our position teehee [+] Assassin's Return - Assassin's return is quite an interactive Treasure Hunter promotion: - On the right you can see your contract (similar to a slayer task), simply, you must kill the listed creatures, after doing so, you can get a reward chest: [+] Foresight - Very simple one, you can just see what each chest holds: [+] Academy of Heroes - And finally.. another interactive one: - Level up your hero and receive level threshold rewards as well as regular rewards for each kill: - What level can you get to? [+] Bug Reports - Fixed Orthenglass flask portering - Fixed level requirement message for Igneous Kal-Zuk cape creation - Fixed Jug of Water filling - Fixed burying Wyvern bones opening the herblore interface - Fixed Barbarian agility ladder sending you to narnia - Fixed noting Blood reaver binding contract - Fixed an issue with the 24h login streak Ataraxia dollar reward - Fixed Raksha drop rates, they're now: Pet 1/1000 (200 threshold), Spike 1/500, Maul piece 1/400, Boots 1/200, drop rate boosts and double drops now work for Raksha as well - Fixed an issue where you don't receive enough elite outfit fragments - Fixed Lamps proccing Brooch of the Gods - Fixed Incense stick product selection - Fixed Ring of wealth (c) charges display - Fixed an issue causing crashes based on ore box stored value - Fixed Blurite rock not counting towards Skilling contracts - Fixed Treasure trail reward casket rewards being deleted if you open another clue while in the interface - Fixed Chaos elemental attack putting you in walls Keep up to date on Ataraxia 2 through our Discord: https://discord.gg/yuKh6Qt/ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
