RuneScape Discussion
- Adjusted the clickboxes during the Arch-Glacor fight.
- Glacor Remnants will now be dropped in the correct quantities, depending on how many of the Arch- Glacor's mechanics are active.
- Kerapac pet broadcasts are now more consistent about the Kill Count at which the pet was obtained.
- Players will no longer benefit from the Furnace perk during the Croesus encounter.
- Sticky fungus will no longer spawn under the ground.
- Croesus will now visually open up if a statue is triggered after it closes its core.
- Font change
- The Guthix Blessing butterfly will now consistently follow you after teleporting.
- Prevented Hearts of Ice messaging popping up at the wrong time.
- Monkey Trinkets now require the correct amount of XP to be earned before rewarding their respective Lamps.
- The Well-being Bundle has been extended until the 31st of October.
- In RuneScape 3, when the TzHaar were breaking through trying to find a new egg chamber, they actually found the Elder Kiln. When they found Zuk they assumed it was one of their creations that had gone crazy. In Old School he’s kind of depicted as a wild animal, in Inferno you go meet Tzhaar-Ket-Keh and he tells about a big egg chamber with the monster Zuk in it.
- The TzekHaar front was designed to be different. TzekHaar front is not safe like the previous kilns.
- Given the time the other kilns take, the length will depend on your skill.
- We don’t want you to feel as though you’ve committed a long period of time and failed. It’s built like an Elite Dungeon where some loot will be saved in the chest.
- How is it different from past wave based fights? It’s more like an elite dungeon than previous wave based fights.
- There are checkpoints along through the fight.
- Solo encounter
- Obsidian equipment works except for the helmet since Zuk is not a TzHaar.
- If you use checkpoints, you will not gain a kill time.
- Waves and how long? Nothing to say today on time. 17 then Zuk.

- Igneous Stone and Capes: Rewarded from a flawless normal run, will upgrade the accompanying Kiln cape. The capes give +57 armour, +43 strength, and +2 prayer. The melee variant boosts overpower to cost 60% adrenaline (instead of 100%). The ranged version does the same for Deadshot and causes it to deal 42-210% of initial damage plus 70% ability damage every 1.2 seconds (2 ticks) for the next 8.4 seconds. The magic cape does the same for omnipower and causes it to hit 4 times with each hit dealing 80-180% ability damage.
- This effectively amounts to ~600% ability for 60% adrenaline in each style. ~Thaxy
- The Igneous Kal-Zuk is awarded for a flawless hardmode run. It combines the previous three capes (unsure if hybrid or all, could affect usage) for the same bonuses.
- Magma Tempest Ability: 5x5 grid of fire, requires a magic staff, lasts 9.6 seconds, and hits 8 times for 5-25% damage. Can critically strike which means it doesn’t need a designated primary target so it may interact in an interesting way with the Fractured Staff of Armadyl.
- Scripture of Ful: Deal 20% more damage and take 10% more damage for 15 seconds after activating the scripture but the scripture has a 15 second cooldown which means it likely can’t refresh while active. Average 120% weapon damage over 10 seconds.
- Ek-Zekkil: Three parts from hard mode. Tier 95. The igneous cleave special attack deals for 50% adrenaline which does 62-190% ability damage plus 6 hits of 30-105% ability damage (average 67.5) increasing by 5% for each hit over the next 14.4 seconds. It can also be extended by up to 5 hits with burns or bleeds. This also can be affected by the Masterwork Spear of Annihilation’s passive which increases bleed duration by 50%. Someone could put an Ek-Zekkil in an Essence of Finality to use the special or use tick trickery to stall attacks. What this means is that without the TMW spear or poison this special should do about 1085% ability damage, 1181% with poison and no TMW spear, 1455% with spear and no poison, and 1575% with both spear and poison according to Thaxy’s numbers. This has a 60s cooldown and takes 26s with no spear or 35s with a spear to deliver the damage, since they’re bleeds, they are unaffected by berserk.
- Pontifex Ring Upgrade: Final upgrade for the ring, once fully upgraded will be able to be overpowered granting access to all buffs without being equipped.
- One More Thing: Pernix’s Quiver - made by receiving Quiver fragments when you have the top tier Pontifex Ring. With 100 fragments you can create the quiver which grants access to two ammo slots that are swapped through the ability menu, it increases Ranged max attacks by 4% when fighting targets below 25% health. Will be tradeable when first crafted.

Listener Questions
Question from Bears
When EGW was announced to be broken up into 4 fronts coming a month apart people freaked out. Now that the fourth front is here, do you guys like the format? Are you glad they did it this way? I personally loved it!
