Deadman Prep & Quality of Life

This week's update brings a bunch of quality of life updates to make your day-to-day adventures a bit easier, as well as all the preparations needed for the upcoming Deadman Invitational!



Quality of Life Improvements


NPC Contact - Last Contacted

The NPC Contact spell found on the Lunar Spellbook will now remember which NPC you most recently contacted, allowing you to contact them quick via a right-click option.



POH Portal Options

Player-owned house portals found throughout Old School have been given some additional right-click options to make entering your house, or someone else's, a bit more streamlined.


You can now find the same options you'd usually find in the chatbox menu on the right-click menu as well.

Keyboard shortcuts for destroy interface

When destroying items, you can now use either your '1' or 'Y' key on your keyboard to select the 'Yes' option, or your '2' or 'N' option on your keyboard to select the 'No' option.

Remove All Placeholders Within Bank Tab

Right-clicking a bank tab will now give you the option of removing all placeholders within that tab.


Re-enter Waterfall dungeon without Glarial's Amulet

If you've completed the Waterfall quest, you are now able to enter the Waterfall dungeon without Glarial's Amulet.

Right-click Travel - Dragontooth Island

The Ghost Captain found in Port Phasmatys can now be used to quickly travel to Dragontooth Island with a handy right-click option.


You can also pay the Ghost Captain a one-off fee of 500 ectotokens to unlock free travel to the island.



Deadman Preparation



The Deadman Spring Invitational is just a few days away. Starting on Monday 20th March, the top 2,000 players from the previous Deadman season are going to be battling it out to take home the $10,000 prize!
