Boss Timer, Kill Counts and Legacy Mode Fixes

Originele tekst

Link

Our deadly Ninja Team are hard at work on an awesome PvM update, where Death himself will offer Slayer-like tasks to take down some of Gielinor's toughest bosses.

This week we've introduced the first parts of this update. There's an in-game timer to show how quickly you prevail during instanced boss fights, and we're starting to track kill counts of relevant beasties, which will be viewable in an interface once the main update hits the game.

We've also released a batch of updates to Legacy Mode and the accompanying EoC improvements, in response to the feedback you've given us so far.

Read on for more information, or log into RuneScape now.

Boss Timers

Upon entering an instanced boss fight, you'll now see a new, movable boss timer element in the interface. This will remain and keep counting up for as long as it takes the instanced boss to be defeated, and will announce the kill time in your chat box when it falls.

Note that the timer will not appear if more than a certain number of players are in the instance. This differs, depending on the boss:

• Giant Mole - 1
• TzTok-Jad - 1
• Queen Black Dragon - 1
• Zilyana - 1
• Graardor - 1
• Kree'arra - 1
• K'ril Tsutsaroth - 1
• Har-Aken - 1
• Legiones - 2
• Araxxor - 2
• Kalphite King - 3
• Nex - 3
• Barrows: Rise of the Six - 4
• Vorago - 7

Kill Counts

Today, we've also added kill tracking of bosses and certain slayer monsters - listed below. You won't be able to see how many you've defeated until the full update arrives, but you can start racking up kills.

Your boss kill count will affect certain reward unlocks in the future - get a head start now!

Legacy Updates

Huge thanks to all of you who've given your feedback on last week's Legacy and EoC update.

We're overjoyed to see so many of you enjoying the return of traditional combat and the global combat improvements, but we're well aware that there's still work to be done.

All of your feedback has been read and taken into account. Last week, we fixed some of your most high-priority points - in particular, God Wars and Dagannoth Kings balance.

As part of our ongoing work on Legacy and EoC, today sees another batch of post-release fixes and tweaks, including the following:

• Minimap icons are now correctly sized in EoC mode.
• Combat challenges can now be blocked at 138 combat level.
• Flurry no longer deals magic damage when Korasi's sword is equipped.
• The amulet of glory has been rebalanced, so the amulet of fury is the better choice - as it should be.
• A number of outdated references to combat levels and life point values have been corrected.

See the patch notes for full details of today's fixes, and visit this forum thread to follow our progress on known Legacy and EoC issues.

Remember that this is just one part of our ongoing work on Legacy and the updated EoC system. Keep giving us your feedback!

Enjoy!

The future's bright for RuneScape warriors, so gear up and get into the fray. As always, let us know what you think over on the forums.

Samenvatting

Het Ninja Team werkt momenteel aan een update waarbij Death je Slayerachtige taken geeft, maar dan met bossmonsters. Deze week is het eerste gedeelte van deze update uitgebracht: er is nu een timer in het spel die je laat zien hoe snel je een boss hebt gedood. Ook wordt vanaf nu van sommige monsters bijgehouden hoeveel je er hebt gedood. Je kunt dit nog niet in het spel zien, dit zal pas kunnen als het grootste gedeelte van de update er is.

Ook zijn er aan de hand van de feedback van de spelers een aantal wijzigingen gedaan aan Legacy Mode en de verbeteringen aan de EoC.

Boss Timers

Wanneer je een boss in een instance bevecht zie je vanaf nu een timer die aangeeft hoelang je over het gevecht doet. Deze kun je vrijelijk over je scherm verplaatsen. Als de boss dood is wordt de tijd in je chatbox omgeroepen. De timer werkt niet meer als er meer dan een bepaald aantal spelers in de instance zijn. Dit aantal verschilt per boss:

• Giant Mole - 1
• TzTok-Jad - 1
• Queen Black Dragon - 1
• Zilyana - 1
• Graardor - 1
• Kree'arra - 1
• K'ril Tsutsaroth - 1
• Har-Aken - 1
• Legiones - 2
• Araxxor - 2
• Kalphite King - 3
• Nex - 3
• Barrows: Rise of the Six - 4
• Vorago - 7
