X marks the spot! Clue Scrolls have always been popular with RuneScape’s many super sleuths, and we’re pleased to this week confirm a few changes that will make your Treasure Trails experience a little smoother. Also incoming are yet more improvements to Mining and Smithing, details about Gameblast 2019, an umbral chest promo, some fantastic new merch and (as if you need reminding) Double XP Weekend!TREASURE TRAILS IMPROVEMENTSIf you’re a RuneScape member and have not yet got involved with the Treasure Trails fun, this is the perfect time to do so. Keep an eye out for the clue scrolls that are dropped by monsters, found in chests, obtained from various skills or even pickpocketed from H.A.M. members.Today, almost a year after the big Treasure Trails update, we're revisiting Treasure Trails and making a few improvements. Those looking to learn more about Treasure Trails – and keep tabs on their own clue solving performance – can learn more by seeking out Zaida and her pet yak Nigel. She can be found south west of the Grand Exchange’s southern gate.Here’s a look at some of the changes we’ve made to Clue Scrolls:Players will now be able to downgrade several Clue Scrolls at a time via Zaida, up to a cap of 25. Taking a trip on the magic carpet will no longer stop Clue Scrolls from scanning.The chance of clues swapping or progressing into the same clue has been significantly reduced. This change has been made with particular thought for those using the Globetrotter outfit.MINING AND SMITHINGArtisans' workshop respect enhancer will now consume one charge and double the respect for each 0.25% respect earned when an item is made in the workshop.Mining crablets will no longer deplete stamina, meaning they can be mined AFK as was previously the case prior to the Mining and Smithing Rework. However, their XP return has also been reduced.An ore box can now be used on a deposit box, in a similar fashion to a gem bag or coal bag, to empty the ore box's contents into your bank without depositing the ore box.PATCH NOTESThe Summoning Swap interface has been standardised so it now functions similarly to a crafting interface. This means it remembers your previous ion, and allows you to confirm by pressing space. 7+ improvements to the Player Own Ports UI based on player feedback.Here’s a link to our other patch notesGAMEBLAST 2019It’s been known for RuneScape and Old School to exchange the odd scowl, and to perhaps hurl the occasional sandwich across the playground at one another. But such is the power of Gameblast that both eras of RuneScape are joining forces!Gameblast 2019 takes place this weekend (February 22nd-24th) and streamers from both the RuneScape and Old School camps are joining forces to raise money for the incredibly wonderful charity Special Effect.
