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