OSRS Patch Notes, Check Old School Runescape D&I Update Patch Notes From Here

OSRS Patch Notes

The latest patch notes for OSRS were released on November 9, 2022. Having a new economy and high scores allows you to play the OSRS game you are familiar with. Compared to RuneScape, Fresh Start will have a few notable differences. There will be no fast progression benefits on these Fresh Start servers. There won't be any Ironman mode, XP boosts, or drop rate increases. The team sought to make it easier but original because it is aimed at fresh new gamers. However, we have added the latest released patch notes in the upcoming passages.

Old School Runescape D&I Update Patch Notes

Diversity and Inclusion Changes

If you’re an avid FashionScaper, enjoy romancing royals, or love a good quest, we’ve got a few changes this week guaranteed to make you happy!

First up, changing anything about your base character model is now completely free, with no limitations! This means we’ve got freebies afoot (little shoe joke for you there) at Yrsa’s Shoe Shop in Rellekka, Thessalia’s Shop in Varrock, the Hairdresser’s in Falador, and the Makeover Mage!

Now that you’ve got those fancy new duds, why not walk them over to Miscellania, where the dating scene has recently been revived? The following changes have been made to the Throne of Miscellania and Royal Trouble quests:

• You may now choose to romance either the handsome Prince Brand or the beautiful Princess Astrid, regardless of your character’s gender.

• Or, if you’re not looking for a long-term commitment, you can now choose to become your selected royal’s best friend instead of marrying them.

Speaking of quests, the gender requirement during Recruitment Drive has been removed and replaced with a new puzzle that will test your powers of observation. In addition, you’ll receive a cool 3,000 GP for completing the quest.

You’ll also notice that anyone can now join any Consortium company – except The Red Axe – regardless of which gender they present as. Any references to the companies’ previous gender discrimination have been removed from the quest.

Following the completion of The Feud, all NPCs in the town of Pollnivneach will revert to their usual names, instead of going by Ali. You can learn more by speaking to the citizens during and after the quest!

If you’ve got the itch for something more mischievous, both male and female H.A.M. members can now be pickpocketed at level 15 Thieving, granting 22.2 XP per successful pickpocket. The Skill Guide and level-up messages have been updated accordingly.

To coincide with the above change, Barbarian Village inhabitants of any gender can now drop Clue Keys – hurrah!

King Roald has finally heard the long-lasting complaints from The Varrock guards and has now supplied them with armor just like their counterparts in other cities. We’re sure this will stop them from being murdered en masse for Clue Scrolls.

Lastly, citizen models across Gielinor are now more diverse! You’ll notice a greater variety of farmers, warriors, guards, paladins, heroes, knights, tribespeople, and regular folks.

We’re still working on more Diversity and Inclusion changes, but we’re not quite ready to talk about them just yet. Keep your ears to the ground on that one!

Quest Speedrunning

Good news speedrunners! We’re adding Prince Ali Rescue and Beneath Cursed Sands to the Quest Speedrunning roster.

We’ve also made the following changes to Speedrunning worlds:

• Ammo dropped when fired now only appears to the person who fired it.

• Lit fires now last a consistent amount of time before going out.

• Ash left behind by fires now only appears to the person who lit the fire.

• Poison, venom and disease effects are now correctly wiped when starting or ending a speedrun.

We’re also aware of an issue where items drop because the Inventory overflows (for example, when you’re given an item but already have a full Inventory)

are not correctly deleted when starting or ending a speed run.

We expect to have a global fix for this issue released later this month. In the meantime, we will manually fix particularly bad instances of this problem. Where needed, best times will be reset to ensure times don’t become unobtainable.

Also, as an added extra, Quest Speedrunning trophies have been made lighter… without using cheaper metals!

As always, we’d love to hear what you think of the requirements, starting items and any other feedback you may have.

Finally, as a quick heads up, we’ll have a new competition for all you fast-footed folk starting on November 16th, so get practicing your time-saving techniques in Prince Ali Rescue & Beneath Cursed Sands!

We’d like to give a big shoutout to the speedrunning community for all their help! If you’re looking for more information about where to start or just regular, friendly advice, check out the places below:

Speaking of quests, we’ve made a couple of quality-of-life changes to Ratcatchers:

• The rats will absolutely hate this announcement, but we’ve made it easier for cats to catch them.

• Cats will now run away when they reach 1 HP in their fight against the King Rat, rather than valiantly fighting to the death. Now your furry friend can accompany you until you’re ready to exchange them for Death Runes, as nature intended.

• Lastly, the guards in the mansion segment of the quest haven’t had a pay rise for a while and have become lax in their duties. They should be a bit easier to anticipate, and you’ll no longer get caught between awkward rotations while conducting your sneaky business.

Tombs of Amascut

As we discussed last week, we’ve made some adjustments to Osmumten’s Fang. If you missed it, the big change is that the weapon now rolls your accuracy twice, but doesn’t re-roll an enemy’s Defence.

For a full rundown, including the raid’s drop mechanics, click here.

This behaviour will be reflected everywhere except the Tombs of Amascut, where the Fang will act as it did before the change.

Halloween 2022

We’re glad you’re all enjoying the Halloween goodness! Because you’ve been so ghoulishly delightful, we’re buffing the event so you’ll enjoy it even more!

Firstly, you’ll get more treats per drop, a higher chance to get treats in the first place, and a reduced cooldown on treats when gathering logs, ore or fish.

Generous treaters are now more common and hang around for longer – we’ve also reduced their spawn delays, so they’ll appear faster, too!

Lastly, we’ve noticed you guessing the size of the global ghouls – sorry, goals – as anywhere between 500 million to 1 billion. As a heads-up, it’s not even as much as the smallest of guesses… and may even be off by a couple 100 million!

Crack The Clue 3

It’s been over a month since Crack The Clue 3 began and we’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching all of you intrepid treasure hunters solve the clues created by the fantastic Woox!

If you want to start, fear not it’s not too late, as there are plenty of great places to find those like-minded hunters:

/r/2007scape
/r/CrackTheClue
The Crack The Clue Discord server
The Runestone Hunters Discord server

Other Changes

Corrected the 42 Mining ‘requirement’ for What Lies Below to be a recommendation.

The issues with the Divine Rune Pouch (t), including the visibility bug in the 4th slot and the issue where the ZMI payment menu wouldn’t highlight correctly, have been fixed.

You may now reclaim the Darkness of Hallowvale reward tome after completing A Taste of Hope from the chest located at the Burgh de Rott hideout… if you like.

Fixed some incorrectly formatted dialogue in the Big Chompy Bird Hunting quest.

The world switcher now displays all worlds correctly for players who have opted out of Fresh Start Worlds.

MOBILE ONLY: Optimised the on-tap highlights to help with framerate-dropping issues.

STEAM ONLY: Tooltips will no longer be cut off on the right side of the screen.

PvP Rota Changes

The PvP rota has moved to Period A:

• 539 – (US) – PvP World

• 548 – (Germany) – High-Risk PvP World

• 577 – (US) – Free-to-Play PvP World

• 559 – (UK) – LMS Competitive
