Game NewsPatch NotesCommunity

This week's shuriken are looking extra sparkly - seems like the Ninjas have been to Prifddinas! In other news, we have a message about the Golden Gnomes Cosplay Category and a sneaky peek at some new merch.

Ninja Strike 10: Crystal Chests & Broadcasts

The Ninjas have been up to their usual tricks this week, and this time they've been extra sneaky and hacked the broadcast system! Let's take a closer look...

Player Broadcasts

Historically, players haven't had that much control over the broadcasts they receive in chat. For the most part they were very useful, but after a while they'd get repetitive - and worse, if you were in a busy world, they could fill up the entire Chat Box!

Well, your broadcast woes are over! The Ninja Team have had a word with the Chat Box Goblins (you know, the tiny goblins who control the Chat Box?) and they've agreed to let players toggle more broadcasts on and off so that you can properly customise your experience.

You can toggle various broadcast now in settings -> gameplay -> Broadcast world, friends & clan.

By default, all options will be toggled on.

Global Broadcasts

Some broadcasts that previously highlighted achievements by wider groups have been narrowed down to only include your Clan and those on your Friends' List, which we hope will reduce the number of extraneous messages you see.

This includes broadcasts about total XP achievements and rare item drops like the Blade of Nymora.

In some cases, we've done the reverse, and made it so that big achievements are properly celebrated with a world-wide announcement.

The table shows the different broadcast tiers and the broadcast tier changes we've made this week:

Crystal Chests

We've upgraded the Chest Interface for Crystal Chests with a new toggle that allows you to take items in noted or unnoted form. You can also Bank your items straight from the chest, a feature that you'll know from the standard Reward Chest Interface.

This update should cut down on unnecessary clicks and let you organise your items in record time.

Triskelion Keys

Lastly, the Ninjas have made some changes to the Triskelion. Previously, combining the different parts of the Triskelion was a slow and painstaking task - now, you can combine as many keys as possible in just one action. That leaves you with more time to gloat over your Dragonstone Armour drops!

Golden Gnomes

The gnominations - sorry, nominations - phase of this year's Golden Gnomes is closed. Thank you to everyone who sent in a response. Our committee is reviewing them as we speak.

Now, we will be doing things a little differently for one of the awards. Normally, the Best Cosplay Creation category is judged on-stage at RuneFest. As that won't be possible this year, and your feedback has indicated that you would prefer the winner to be selected by Jagex, we'll be allowing cosplayers from all over Gielinor to submit their entries using this form.

Be sure to submit your cosplay creations by the new deadline of September 30th!

Official Merch Store Update

X marks the spot in the Official Merch Store this week, as AngelsScapes unveils a new pin collection!

These high-quality enamel pins feature Reward Casket, Tetracompass and Gilded Armour designs - a must have for any clue hunter!

The Reward Casket pins come in two versions: one is coloured enamel and antique nickel and the other a limited-edition antique gold variant. Both pins feature a hidden rail, which can be moved along to reveal the treasure inside! Pre-orders for both versions close on September 14th - you've gotta be quick on the mark if you want to take this treasure home!

The Gilded Armour Pin and the Tetracompass Pin are also limited edition and will be available in-store for as long as stocks last.

So, you're looking for the nitty-gritty details of this week's Ninja Strike? Then you've come to the right place, friend, because that's exactly what the Patch Notes tab is all about. Let's take a look!
