Easter Diversions, Quality of Life, Bug Fixes

Hello everyone,

As most of you are aware, we have recently been targeted by DDoS attacks for the past two weeks. The situation is a bit better now, so regular activities can resume as normal.

  • Added Easter event diversion.
    • Easter sack added near home where you can retrieve a Locator device as well as a free Mystery egg once every 4 hours.
    • Mystery egg claim cool-down will carry over through alt accounts to avoid abuse.
    • Similarly, Locator device will only be given once per 4 hours for alt accounts as well.
    • Locator device can be used to find Mystery eggs (and possibly some extra loot) once every hour. The "Feel" option will give you a direction and tile distance to where the egg is hidden. Dig with a spade to uncover it.
  • New cosmetics from Mystery eggs:
    • Easter egg: food that heals 22 hp and restores some prayer points.
    • Eastfloor spade: spade variant that can be used in-place of a normal spade.
    • Nest hat: cosmetic hat that can be transformed.
    • Egg hat: it's a hat.
    • Giant easter egg: cosmetic/wearable.
    • Gregg's eastdoor: cosmetic weapon similar to Dinh's bulwark without the bonuses or passives.
    • Bunny ears.
    • Easter basket.
    • Exeggutioner's axe kit: cosmetic kit for Soulreaper axe.
    • Blade of saeldor ornament kit: cosmetic kit for all Blade of Saeldor variants.

    • Can be configured by using the "Scouter" option in Chambers of Xeric entrance.
  • Added "collected count" for drop broadcasts (count grabbed from Collection Log).

    • Drops can found in ::drops Chest category.
  • Added a Smoke devil instance.
    • Can create by right-clicking the crevice entrance > "Private".
    • Requires slayer task to create.
    • To avoid another issue similar to Kraken instance, Smoke devil tasks can no longer be extended via vouchers.
  • Added "House" option to Royal Seed Pod that can teleport to player-owned homes.
  • Added Venator vestige and Leviathan's lure to loot broadcast.

  • Lowered Amethyst javelin head sell price: 922 gp each >>> 100 gp.
  • Dwarf multicannons are now auto-retrieved on server updates.
  • The visual model for Amulet of blood torture has been changed.
  • Fixed issue with Lightbearer special attack regeneration not taking effect as soon as a special is used.
  • Fixed slayer task assignment spelling mistake: Phanton Muspah >>> Phantom Muspah.
  • Fixed Kephri scarabs double-healing.
  • Fixed exploit coming from a specific cheat client.

For transparency's sake, I decided to not release the Easter miniquest we had originally planned to release. This was simply due to the quest feeling more tedious than fun and due to recent stress I lacked the brainpower this week to try and correct that.
