• Tweaks and Fixes (Patch Notes)

• There is a new camera mode - "Freedom", which allows for more extreme camera angles and zoom levels.
• Resolved an issue where defensive abilities were not taken into account when calculating damage as the opponent died.
• Buffs from different items can no longer be activated in the same tick when using the drag-able worn equipment slot on the action bar to switch them.
• The Legendary Pet scavenge ability will now prioritise the most valuable single item in a stack of loot.
• Increased the effective range of the Ricochet ability against additional targets (previously it hit enemies within 4 squares of its attack, this is now 6) this change also affects the Caroming perk.
• The Dungeoneering boss Stomp will now immediately advance to his next phase when the crystals are placed.
• If you are in a group and readied up you can right click the Raid barrier and click 'Choose a boss (practice mode)' from there any of the options will take you to that part of the raids boss fight.
• Kill timers will be wiped on the first login after this update, this is because the kill timer didn't have a player check so a team of 50 could set a fast kill time and still have it tracked.
• Kill timers will now only be tracked with 7 people or lower in a kill.
• Nex is now attackable during her phasing, this allows players to build adrenaline and keep seamless combat. Damage to Nex is reduced by 99% at this point.
• The Icicle slam icicle health has been reduced to 20k, down from 100k
• The Icicle bleed is applied after 6 seconds of being under the icicle.
• The Ice closing in around the edges of the arena in phase 1 has been removed. It was causing major FPS drops when spawning in.
• A quick exit option has been added to the pillar at the end of the fight.
• All players can now roll on a unique instead of 1 unique per kill.
• Nex will no longer cleave with her Melee hit.
• If Nex attacks with magic, she will hit the main tank after 3 cycles, allowing them time to react and switch prayer.
• Nex should no longer re-target after any of her attacks or phasing.
• If a player dies, Nex will no longer re-target onto another player (unless it is the tank that died.)
• The off tank drop roll has been removed and replaced with a DPS roll.
• Reverted a change to the Glacor Cave Bane mine site to restore it back to the way it was before the update of 11th March 2019.
• Added the Guthix Temple, deep beneath the Lumbridge caverns to the teleport options on the Sixth-Age circuit. The Max Guild portal teleport to Tormented Demons now places the player closer to them, while still respecting their boundary of aggression.
• Removed the limit of one teleport from Remora's necklace and moved it's teleport location from the White Knights' camp to the ominous door that leads into the QBD fight.
• Players can now complete their slayer task if they had previously reset their wilderness task to an easier one.
