Happy Tuesday! You'll notice that this week's newspost has arrived a little late, and that's because we spent all of Monday plucking shuriken out of the furniture. It turns out that while we were all sunning ourselves over the Bank Holiday weekend, the Ninja Team orchestrated ANOTHER strike! Let's see what they've been up to this time...

Ninja Strike #5

This week the Ninjas made a precision strike against a handful of tiny targets all over the game. They've made moves against boss instances, interfaces, and more!

To begin with, we've given the entrances to boss instances some new options. Starting today, you'll be able to right-click or long-press to 'Join' or 'Rejoin last instance'.

Some bosses also now have 'Enter encounter' and 'Custom encounter' options built into the entrance to their lair. These options combined make it easier than ever to get into the fight!

And while the Ninjas were sticking to the shadows to escape the bosses' eyes, they noticed that some players were able to enter Nex: Angel of Death instances after the fight had ended, causing them to get trapped until they logged out. This issue has now been fixed.

Next up, the Ninjas turned their attention once again to interfaces:
  • 14 discontinued titles have been hidden from the Titles interface - but if you were lucky enough to have earned them beforehand, they'll still show up for you.
  • Can't remember if you earned them or not? Just type them in to the all-new Search Bar, which the Ninjas have added to the Titles, Appearances, Animations and Pets tabs of the Customisations interface. You'll also notice a new 'All' category, which contains... well, all of the above. This category will be the default tab from now on.
  • In other interface news, you can now sort the Quest List by alphabetical order. You can also sort it from Z-A, if you're that sort of person.
  • Also, a bug that required players to click twice on the Grand Exchange interface after selecting an item from a search has been resolved.
Last but not least, those of you who have completed the Hard Desert Achievements will now be able to continuously auto-pickpocket the Desert Phoenix.

Oh, and one more thing. Has anyone spoken to the Doomsayer recently? He's started harping on about the Araxxor boss fight. If you're yet to face this oversized arachnid, you might want to heed his warning.

You can see where else the Ninjas have been lurking this week in the Patch Notes post.

MORE Ninjas?!

You know what, I think there's far too many shuriken scattered about to account for the regular Ninja troupe. It's almost as though they've swelled in number. No, it's not the forbidden clone jutsu - they've been recruiting!

Please welcome Mods Chaose, Canine and Shogun to the Ninja Team! They'll be joining Mods Kalaya, Erator, Abe, Breezy, Timbo, Kari and Dorn on their epic quest to banish botherations from the world of RuneScape. Blimey, those katana certainly are sharp.

Got a job for them? Pop on over to the Dojo, where you can submit your challenge.

Patch Notes

Alright, that's the last of the ninja stars cleaned up. What's next? Oh, there's a massive scroll of Patch Notes! Let's see, what are this week's highlights...?
  • Our charity partner representatives will be leaving Gielinor on May 30th to continue their good work elsewhere. We're grateful for their support and hope to welcome them back for future events!
  • You can now toggle proximity entity highlighting on mobile on and off via the Gameplay Settings menu.
  • We've resolved an issue that was causing crashes when opening the Anvil interface while Dungeoneering on a free-to-play world.
Lovely stuff! Remember, you can see the full Patch Notes for this week's update here.
