Time is ticking away on the shores of Anachronia - how's your expedition going? Here at Rune HQ we've been busy hacking our way through your feedback, and our exploration has uncovered some useful changes to Big Game Hunter, auras, and the profound halo. Read on to discover more!

Land out of Time Changes

Can you believe that it's already been two weeks since we landed on the island of Anachronia? Hopefully you've all established your base camps and are happily hunting the local dinosaurs to near extinction.

We've made over 25 changes and bug fixes to Anachronia this week, but here are a selection of the most important ones:

  • Gotta Go Fast will now unlock, as intended, after unlocking both double surge and double escape.
  • A breadcrumb trail has been added to Giles if you have not yet completed the Base Camp tutorial.
  • Damaged dinosaur hides are now noteable.
  • The world map view of Anachronia has been tweaked slightly to better represent the terrain.

Big Game HunterThe majority of the changes we've made this week are to Big Game Hunter. We've received some good constructive feedback in the last two weeks, and we hope that the new changes will make the content even better than it already is:

  • The aggression circle now better syncs with the dinosaur's position after it has eaten Jadinkos.
  • One of the hard paths has been removed from the Arcane Apoterrasaur.
  • Jadinkos will no longer spawn on the lowest tier encounters. (Arcane Apoterrasaur, Scimitops, and Bagrada Rex.)
  • The delay from when Jadinkos spawn to when the creature tracks towards them has been increased.
  • A bank pin is now required to access your bait box on Anachronia.
  • If you have bought the bait box upgrade, a bait box has been added to the base camp that accepts noted bait for Big Game Hunter.
  • The delay for when you can move when joining a Big Game Encounter has been reduced slightly.
  • The message received when skinning a creature inside Big Game Hunter has been tweaked slightly.

Profound halo

Holy moly! The new and improved profound halo, as voted for by you, has been added to the game.

This halo will be accessible for everyone who has completed the 'How Many Games?' achievement.

Aura changes

On the back of the aura sale, Solomon has decided to do a bit of reorganizing concerning how particular auras are categorised. We've made the following changes:

  • The Slayer and Mahjarrat auras have been recategorized as combat auras.
  • Daemonheim auras are now listed in the aura management interface.
  • The Oddball aura can now be found in the aura management interface.
  • Daemonheim auras will now be automatically removed when leaving a dungeon.

Patch notes

Phew! That's not even all of the changes and fixes we've made this week. Take a look at the patch notes to find out more: click here.

Double XP weekend 26th-29th of July

It's that time again! Double XP weekend will run from July 26th to July 29th. For those of you who haven't participated in Double XP weekends before, here's the scoop: throughout the weekend, members will get 100% extra XP in every skill. Non-members aren't quite as lucky, but they'll still get 20% extra XP while skilling.

You'll be able to take advantage of doubled XP rates across the whole game and The Land Out of Time, with just a handful of restrictions - click here for details on those.

Twitch Prime

We've once again partnered with Twitch to bring you a whole lot of exclusive in-game rewards as part of the Twitch Prime loot! And this month, each and every one of you who's a Twitch Prime member can grab a free Umbral Pack (Umbral Waraxe, Umbral Akh and Umbral Wings). How to redeem your gains? Simple, follow the link below and make sure you follow all steps of the process:

Tuesday, July 23rd - 16:00 UTC (Game Time) - Art & Audio Showcase: Genesis of The Land Out of Time

Now that you've all had the chance to explore Anachronia, take down its dinosaurs, run around its island-wide agility course and scratch the surface of all the other surprises The Land Out of Time has to offer, we guess it's time for an Art & Audio Showcase!

Have you ever wondered how our JMods gave life to the dinosaurs you now get to hunt (or flee from, ahem)? Or what were the first ideas that came to mind when creating vile blooms and other parts of the environment of this wonderful island? Or maybe you're just eager to have a deeper look in the production process our teams go through when creating the content you enjoy every day? Well, now's the time for that!

LootScape will be enabled (see all details above).

Saturday, July 27th - 16:00 UTC (Game Time) - RSNate Featured Stream

This week, our featured streamer is RS_Nate. Join him for a PvM run on Araxxor, Telos, the Black Stone Dragon, Nex and AoD!

This featured stream is also an opportunity to grab a LootScape! That's right, you can now receive in-game loot when you watch a RuneScape streamer. It works exactly the same way as our official streams, just watch RS_Nate's stream on (his Twitch channel) and you'll receive the LootScape the following day.

LootScape will be enabled (see all details above).

Sunday, July 28th - 18:00 UTC (Game Time) - PvM with Mod Lee

Our resident PvM expert Mod Lee knows no fear and he's ready to take you all on another round of boss mass. From Vorago to the Kalphite King, the Corporeal Beast, the Angel of Death, if you've got a set to complete, an achievement to unlock, or simply want to hang out with friends and slay some, this is the place and time!

LootScape will be enabled (see all details above).

Pink skirts Events

Of course, adventures continue in Gielinor even when we're too busy (PKing) creating the adventures of tomorrow. Our PMods are here to welcome you in a range of PvM Boss Masses, Events and Q&As each week. Check out all the community events organised by the Pink Skirts on their official schedule here.
