• There is now a message when your furnace perk activates while mining.
• Tuned bane ores no longer have a chance to increase amount of bars gained while smelting.
• It is no longer possible to attempt to store pickaxes on your toolbelt in free to play worlds if you have a member's only pickaxe already stored.
• When having a high-level members pickaxe on your toolbelt on F2P, when mining, this will now default to runite.

• Stone Spirits now have a higher buy limit of 25,000 on the Grand Exchange
• Breaking down Torva Platebodies and Platelegs to use for Trimmed Masterwork armour will now give 5 and 3 Praesulic Essences respectively
• Fixed a typo with Elder rune bars on the smithing skill guide
• Shooting stars have been re-enabled.
• Players who Custom Fitted their Trimmed Masterwork sets before augmenting them can now repair them at an anvil if they are at 100% charge, and can then augment them again using an invention table
• The smithing autoheater is no longer tradeable.
• An error that allowed Masterwork to be repairable at an anvil was causing issues, this has now been resolved and can no longer be repaired at an anvil - instead you should repair your used masterwork armour at Bob in Lumbridge or at an armour repair stand in your PoH.
• Player owned farm animals can no longer be obtained by Ironman accounts by popping Falador party room balloons.
