Patch Week 29th of April

04/30/2019

Finally, the Easter madness is over and we’re free from puns for another year. Eggcellent. Argh! Let’s just move on to the blog…Clan Quality of Life ImprovementsAs we mentioned in last Tuesday’s stream, the Clan improvements have been delayed by a week due to the bank holiday weekend here in the UK.We want to take the time to ensure that every update is to a standard we can be proud of, especially when making changes to such a key feature.Once the improvements have been tested you can look forward to features like clan anniversary announcements, customisable level requirements, and plenty of fixes and tweaks to existing clan content.Lily of the Valley It’s that time of year again! Lilies of the Valley are making their way to Gielinor once more. You’ll be able to find them all over RuneScape, and even gift them to other players! They’ll be gone by the next update, so be sure to find them while you can.This is the eighth year that RuneScape has played host to the fragrant lily flowers, but did you know that our in-game tradition has a real life origin? In France, May 1st is a public holiday it is customary to give lilies of the valley to friends and family. The tradition dates all the way back to 1561, when King Charles IX was presented with a lily of the valley as a gift. He liked them so much that the following year the King presented a lily of the valley to every lady at court – and soon the practice spread outside the palace to become one of France’s best loved traditions.Who said video games don’t teach you anything?Patch NotesSome highlights from this week’s patch notes:Players can no longer place specific items designed to grief portable placers at Combat Academy.Added colour indicators on skills that are increased or reduced on the skills tab.LootScapeOur live streams are always a great opportunity to grab some awesome in-game prizes.
