Minescape Season 4 Patch 2

Minescape Season 4 Patch 2

Foreword

Before we start the patch notes we would like to apoligize as a team on the lack of recent content updates. We had a lot of content planned, but recent personal issues affecting team members slowed down our progress. We have also spent some time working behind the scenes on some new projects to give more traction to the network as a whole.

This update contains several bug fixes, balance tweaks, quality of life improvements and new content!

Balance Tweaks

Let's start with our game balance tweaks!

Farming cape

The farming cape change has been reverted. It now reduces the time required to farm flowers.

Ring of wealth

The ring of wealth can no longer be recharged at the fountain of runes. Once it breaks, you will need to forge a new one!

Monk and God robes

We have swapped the prayer buffers of monk and god robes to make the latter better.
God robes now provide a 10% prayer points reduction and monk robes provide a 10% prayer points increase.

Minescape Monks

Agility Pyramid

The agility Pyramid has been buffed from 1500 to 2000 xp and from 6 to 8 tickets.

Quality Of Life

This second patch of this season also comes with various QoL improvements.

Wilderness Volcano

We have made the Wilderness Volcano Beacon parkour a proper Agility course. This means that you can use the /cp (shortcut) command if you fall down.

Heroes Basement

We have removed the constant basement entry cost. It is now a one time payment only!

Bank deposits

We have fixed several inconsistencies with bank deposits. Depositing all items will deposit all your items but your 4 armor slots. Depositing your armor will only deposit items in your 4 armor slots.

Thieving drop table

An icon is now shown on the mobs' drop tables to indicate which drops are thievable. These drops also appears in the thieving skill interface.

Broadcast 110/120 levels

Reaching level 110 and 120 will now be broadcasted globally (instead of locally).

Catherby fishing shop

We have added a new fishing shop in Catherby. This was long due!

New Content

Let's move on to the new content!

Pollnivneach Slayer Dungeon

The Pollnivneach Slayer Dungeon has been opened! Catolax is waiting for you and is ready to give you new slayer tasks.

This dungeon contains several new monsters such as:
   - Smokeveld (25 slayer)
   - Pyrefiend (40 slayer)
   - Deep earth warriors (48 slayer)
   - Dust devils (65 slayer)
   - Fire elementals (70 slayer)
   - Skeletons (70 slayer)

Facemasks

Facemasks now provide 70 armor points against dust devils. This buffer is also applied to the Slayer Helmet.

Murder Mystery Quest

Lord Sinclair was killed! Will you be able to find the culprit? Investigate the crime scene in Sinclair's Mansion!

Blacksmith Quest

A few weeks, or months, ago, we opened a new Discord Channel for you to post quests following our questing dialoque system. We have implemented the Blacksmith Quest sent in that channel for you to enjoy!
It is a great beginner quest!
(N.B. The old blacksmith quest and the Xmas quests have been removed)

The end

That's it for this patch.
We want to apologize once again for the delay between this update and our last one. But as you already know, this project is only the begining of something bigger. Stay tuned for some news about the network in general and incoming new Minescape short-lived modes.
Minescape Leagues will end at the end of the months. Rewards will be released soon after. We may release an off-season leagues whilst we prepare for the next one!
