Do you feel lucky, punk? Well, do ya?! If yes, you're in for a treat this week, because Balthazar's Big Raffle is back! Plus, it's the fourth week of Summer Escape and we've got another bumper lot of patch notes for you to read. Go ahead - make our day.

September Raffle

Balthazar Beauregard and his spectacular circus have had a dip in funds this year, so once again they're hosting a raffle!

Find Balthazar in Burthorpe to receive a free ticket every day. Earn more free tickets by completing a daily challenge and tracking down Gilly Willikers, the travelling clown.

This year a shiny new prize is on offer: the Golden version of Linza the Disgraced's Barrows equipment! Plus, each ticket will also give you a chance to win prizes from the previous years, including:


  • Golden Godswords
  • Portable deposit boxes
  • Golden Warpriest armour
  • Deathtouched darts
  • Golden Barrows equipment
  • Golden Chaotic equipment
  • Protean packs


But remember - you've got to be in it to win it! If you miss a day (or several!) you'll be able to trade Balthazar a bond, and he'll hand over all the tickets you've missed so far - and as a bonus, he'll also hold on to any tickets you might miss in future.

Balthazar's Big Raffle will be available in-game from September 1st to September 30th.

Summer Escape: Anachronia

It's the 4th and final summer escape! This week, we're going on a proper island vacation to the Land Out of Time, Anachronia! You might want to swap those swim shorts for spears, though. Here are the buffs:

While you're travelling around Anachronia keep an eye on those lodestones. Once every hour, certain lodestones will receive balloon drops containing Silverhawk feathers, summery snacks, and more!

Don't forget that from 12:00 on Friday to 11:59 on Monday the following boosts will also be in effect:



  • One free clue reroll a day
  • Double skill outfit fragments
  • Double Menaphos rep
  • Double thaler
  • Double slayer points
  • Half boss instance cost

  • 10% increased chance of breeding animals
  • 5% increased chance of shiny animals
  • 10% happiness and health increase from feeding
  • Double item yield from harvested animals
  • 10% more beans from selling animals
  • 10% Increased drop rate of animals from combat
  • Honeycombs are 50% more effective when used on animals


Patch Notes

You might have noticed that things have been a bit quiet on the updates front, mainly because we're all very busy making improvements to existing game content. Have a look at the changes and improvements we've made this week.

Twitch Prime

We've once again partnered with Twitch to bring you some exclusive loot! Whilst active, Twitch Prime members can grab some free loot, including some exclusive outfit pieces!

This month, each and every one of you who's a Twitch Prime member can grab a free Premium Currency Pack (200 RuneCoins, 15 Keys, 40 Hearts of Ice). How to redeem your gains? Simple, follow the link below and make sure you follow all steps of the process.

For instructions on how to claim and redeem your loot, click here.

RuneFest 2019

RuneFest 2019 will be a blast from the very distant past as visitors take a dangerous journey into The Land Out of Time. Expect dinosaurs! And carnivorous player-eating plants! As you're travelling around a real-life slice of the island you can look forward to hands-on time with new content, talks and meetups with the JMods, loads of panels, a dedicated LAN area, an art area for meeting the creative teams and of course some very big surprise announcements on the main stage. We're also bringing back skill chips!

Tickets available

If you're in need of tips and suggestions on everything from travel to accommodation, you can also join our dedicated Discord channel, head to the official RuneFest forum or the community-owned Facebook Group.

Kerapac the Dragonkin will be coming alive at RuneFest 2019! We're happy to announce that we're partnered with WillowCreative who's crafting an amazing cosplay of Kerapac - that she'll unveil in full at RuneFest! Here are some words from her to mark the first step of this collaboration: "Very excited to be portraying an actual dragon soon and I can't wait to show you what else I've planned for him. Here you see a new animatronic wingframe and the aluminum stilts I already developed for a previous cosplay and Kerapac (the main reason why I wanted to build durable and multifunctional frames)".

You can follow progress on her Kerapac cosplay on her Instagram profile, we'll also highlight each step of the build in our following news posts until RuneFest (Oct 4th & 5th).

Facebook Companion

Our Facebook fans can now enjoy a whole new RuneScape experience: the RS Companion! Whether you want to get the best out of the Land Out of Time with some quick info, explore helpful Guides displayed in the Grand Library, never miss future announcements around RS Mobile or RuneFest 2019, grab exclusive Membership offers (even free stuff!) or need Support, the Facebook Companion has your back!

Talk with the RuneScape Companion

The RuneScape Companion is still young and we want to make it the best experience possible with your help. How? Simple, interact with it. The more you have fun (or find bugs in the matrix), the more it will learn!

Playtest

We've been working on some super-secret projects here at Jagex HQ, and we'd like your feedback on it. In short, help us build the future of RuneScape! We will be hosting a workshop day soon and we need players to take part in it. You can apply here!

LOotScape

Our live streams are always a great opportunity to grab some awesome in-game prizes. And as our first adventurers set foot on Land Out of Time (or as we call it "LOoT"), we thought you'd like an update of the LootScape. Ok, roll the drums and behold... our LOoTScape!

This month, each and every RuneScape stream watched will give you a random drop from one of the following:

Guaranteed:



  • 1 - 2 hunter marks
  • 250 resources in a random Base Camp resource
  • Guaranteed drop from Basic Drop Table (see below)
  • View counter goes up on Orb


Chance based:



  • A random skilling outfit piece (if unowned)
  • Either Nature's Balance or Loots Cape (if unowned)


Basic Drop Table: Prismatic small fallen star, Prismatic medium fallen star, Prismatic small lamp, Prismatic medium lamp, Spirit Ruby, Spirit Diamond, Advanced Pulse Core, Spring, Silverhawk down, Medium DG Token Box, Small DG Token Box, Uncut Dragonstone, Large Cash Bag, Medium Cash Bag or Small Cash Bag.

Exciting isn't it?! So don't wait up - connect your RS account to your Twitch account and find out more here. Once that's done, have fun and watch our streams during the day for a guaranteed drop.

Live streams this week

Each week, we host developer Q&As, exclusive in-game first looks and more. And it's all live on our Twitch channel, join us! Missed a stream? Don't worry, we keep them all on our YouTube channel. Be sure to Subscribe to be the first to know.

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 Tonix's stream on (him Twitch channel) and you'll receive the LootScape the following day.

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.

Every year I partake in the raffles just for the protean packs .
Good way to stock up.
Don't care about the gold items and I don't go bossing.
