Dailies & Distractions & Diversions Week Begins

04/27/2021

It's Dailies & Distractions & Diversions Week - oh my! - and there's a whole host of bonuses and buffs for you to look forward to. In other news, the rented item changes we spoke about last week are coming into effect, and we've got some very exciting news about mobile. Read on to learn more

RuneScape on Mobile: Coming this Summer!

In case you missed Mod Warden's message, here's the news: RuneScape will launch on both iOS and Android this summer, and pre-registration is live right now!

But that's not all - you'll also have the chance to work together and earn awesome rewards! The more registrations we get, the more rewards you'll unlock. Here's what you'll get for each tier:

Tier 1: Softpunk Hairstyle

Tier 2: Magic Leap Teleport

Tier 3: Crux Eqal Sword

Tier 4: Scales the Dragon Pet

Tier 5: Crux Eqal Armour Set

Plus, if registrations reach Tier 5, everyone who signed up will get a whopping 7-day 50% XP boost on launch!


Dailies & Distractions & Diversions Week

The third week of Awesome April is about three things: Dailies, Distractions and Diversions! Here's what you can look forward to:

Player Owned Port Boosts

Set sail for fun with an extra 10 voyages a day, adding up to a total of 25! On top of that, voyages will also return 30% more resources or trade goods, except in cases where the reward is random or unspecified. You'll still get the same amount of XP as you normally would from this activity.

Lastly, the Barmaid's special voyage will be available throughout the weekend as well as on Thursday.

This boost is available to Ironman accounts.

Double Daily Vis Wax

Your daily use of the Rune Goldberg machine will provide double the amount of Vis Wax, to a maximum of 200 units.

This boost is available to Ironman accounts.

Free Daily Challenge Extensions

During the event, all Daily Challenges will automatically be extended for free! This includes Challenges that you've re-rerolled.

You won't be able to extend the Challenges beyond this point.

This boost is available to Ironman accounts.

Extra D&D Rewards and Tickets

Several Distractions & Diversions have various extras this week. You may now:

  • Fight Bork twice a day
  • Enter the Phoenix Lair twice a day
  • Explore Sinkholes three times a day
  • Play Big Chinchompa three times a day
  • Get up to three Fish Flingers tickets per day, to a cap of 10 tickets

  • Plus, the daily Guthixian Cache points cap is now 300

These boosts are not available to Ironman accounts.

Player Owned Farm Bonuses

For the whole week, timers on the Player Owned Farm will be running twice as quickly - so animals will grow twice as fast and the baby spawn chance will trigger twice as often!

You'll also get the following bonuses:

  • Double Beans
  • Increased animal sale cap
  • Healthy animals cannot become diseased
  • Animals will consume half as much food
  • Double produce for each animal
  • Trapper awards double the animals

These bonuses are all available to Ironman Accounts.

  • Challenge Gems from War in War's Retreat
  • Chameleon Extract from the Makeover Mage
  • Clan Citadel Booster Packs from Quartermasters in Clan Citadels*
