No Update Next Week
- There will be no Game Update next week as we’re all busy preparing for the launch of Desert Treasure II.
Forestry: Part One Changes
- Box Traps, Fires and Flowers will now be removed from any tile part of a Forestry event spawns at.
- In a similar vein, Dwarven Multicannons on Forestry Event tiles will autodecay. You can reclaim your cannon from Nulodion.
- For players with a Bee on a Stick, we've significantly increased the amount of Bark received at the end of the Flowering Tree event and have increased the amount you receive for each action.
- The bushes in the Flowering Tree event now come in different colours. Names have been changed to include the colours to help colourblind players enjoy the event.
- The Flowering Tree event will now scale on the number of people with a Bee on a Stick cutting a tree rather than just the number of people cutting a tree.
- The Magic Root now changes position more frequently during the Rising Roots event.
- Ultimate Iron Players may now deposit logs with the Friendly Forester. This is a one-way transaction, and you will not be able to get these logs back.
- Ultimate Iron Players may no longer sell items back to the Forestry Shop.
- Random events no longer spawn in range of Forestry events.
- The Collection Log for Forestry now includes the Lumberjack Outfit.
- The Collection Log is now in alphabetical order once more.

We’re back with more changes to Forestry!
First up, we’re making Forestry Events less cluttered. Box Traps, Fires and Flowers will now automatically be removed if they’re on a tile where Forestry Events could spawn. In addition, Dwarven Multicannons will auto-decay when placed on tiles occupied by Forestry Events. You can claim a new cannon from Nulodion.
Random events will also no longer spawn in range of Forestry events – sorry, sandwich lovers!
We’ve also made a few changes to Forestry events themselves, starting with Flowering Tree. As of today’s update, bushes that spawn during this event will come in a variety of different colours to make matching them easier. Don’t worry – their flashy new colours have been incorporated into the names of the bushes, so colourblind players need only right-click to see which bush is which.
Alongside making the visual changes, players that have a Bee on a Stick consumed when a Flowering Tree event spawns will receive significantly more bark for their final reward and more bark per action. We've also made scaling work so that the difficulty scales based on the number of people with a Bee on a Stick cutting the tree rather than how many people are cutting the tree. As always, we will continue to monitor this event and discuss any major feedback concerns.
We’ve also made the Magic Root from Rising Roots change position more frequently, making the event a bit more interactive to justify its high XP rates.
Now, over to the Forestry Shop, where Ultimate Iron players may now deposit logs via the Friendly Forester. Be warned though that this is a one-way transaction – you can’t get those logs back! We’ve also disabled sell-back options for Ultimate Iron players in this specific shop.
Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we’re unable to rollout this change to all players.
Also in the Forestry Shop, we’ve changed the description for the Funky-Shaped Log to make it more readable.
Lastly, we’ve made some improvements to the Collection Log, which now lists Forestry in the usual alphabetical order, and includes the Lumberjack Outfit in the Forestry section.
These are all the changes we have for Forestry at present, although we’ll be keeping an eye out to make sure everything is going smoothly. Roll on Part Two!
This section was added around 1:30pm BST, we missed it in the original post and wanted to make sure you were kept in the loop!
It's been a little while now since Bounty Hunter graced us with its return, and while we've made a handful of changes to what goes on in Daimon's Crater, there are a few things we still see a lot of feedback on.
Among those are two Bounty Hunter-exclusive weapons, whose power makes them perhaps too appealing an option inside the crater. With today's game update, we've adjusted the Dark bow(bh) and Abyssal dagger(bh) to try and shave a little power off to keep setups feeling varied.
- Dark bow(bh) has had its special attack adjusted so that its projectiles no longer land on the same tick. We felt that the same-tick projectiles coupled with 55% Special attack energy remaining made this iconic bow a little too strong.
- Abyssal dagger(bh) has had its special attack cost increased from 25% to 35%, to reduce the likelihood of people dumping 4 special attacks back-to-back and hoping for a massive number.
We'll keep an eye on these changes and if we feel we've been too heavy-handed (or not heavy-handed enough) then we'll make sure to adjust and update you!
This week brings another great reason to upgrade to a Jagex Account, in the form of 20 new Bank slots for Jagex Account characters!
Those of you who haven’t added an authenticator yet will actually get a whopping 40 Bank slots when you upgrade – after all, the Jagex Account already has a built-in authenticator, so you’re killing two birds with one stone!
Don’t forget, we’re also discussing an extra-special Stronghold of Security bonus for Jagex Account holders. We’ve seen some of the concepts and it’s looking mighty fancy – so don’t delay, upgrade today!
Upgrading is simple and gets you safe, secure access to all your Old School RuneScape characters from one simple login. What are you waiting for? Go check it out!
