Content updates:

  • Revenant caves
    • We're excited to announce that a brand new wilderness dungeon has been added to SpawnPK!
      • You can access this cave by selecting the revenants cave teleport under Boss Teleports
      • This new revenant cave will be officially replacing our old & out-dated dungeon
    • Entering the cavern will inflict "Magic sickness" upon you for 5 minutes
      • While under magic sickness, you can not teleport above level 20 wilderness with pets or items
    • The cave starts at level 20 wilderness
      • The wilderness level increases every 8 steps north
    • The cave includes a variety of different monsters, including a connection to the new boss: Skotizo
      • Revenants within the cavern are different from the ones you'd find roaming the wilderness
      • Cavern revenants have different drop tables, and drop new exclusive items including:
        • Revenant ether
          • Used to charge revenant weapons and ethereum bracelets
          • Alternatively can be exchanged with the trader NPCs found within the cave
        • Bracelet of ethereum (u)
          • Once charged with ether, this bracelet can be equipped for full damage mitigation against revenants
            • Your bracelet will lose a charge from each attack by a revenant
          • While the charged bracelet is equipped, revenants will no longer aggro you
          • The (charged) bracelet is always lost on death, and all of the ether stored in it will be dropped to the killer
          • You can "toggle-absorption", which will automatically take ether drops from your revenant kills to charge your bracelet
        • Craw's bow (u)
          • When charged with revenant ether, this bow deals +50% damage and accuracy against monsters in the wilderness
          • This item is always destroyed on death, and the ether charge is dropped to the killer
        • Viggora's chainmace (u)
          • When charged with revenant ether, this mace deals +50% damage and accuracy against monsters in the wilderness
          • This item is always destroyed on death, and the ether charge is dropped to the killer
        • Thammaron's sceptre (u)
          • When charged with revenant ether, this staff deals +50% damage and accuracy against monsters in the wilderness
          • This item is always destroyed on death, and the ether charge is dropped to the killer
        • Amulet of avarice
          • When equipped, monster drops within the revenant cave will always be noted
            • Beware, equipping this amulet will cause you to be skulled!
        • Ancient emblems
          • These can be taken to the emblem trader for 100M cash bags
            • The greater the emblem, the more gold you'll receive!
        • Dark totem pieces
          • Used to access Skotizo (see below for more information)
        • Revenant cave teleport
          • Acts as a teletab, takes you directly to the revenant portion of the cave
      • Other monsters found within the cavern include:
        • Demon spawns
          • Found near the Skotizo portal (see below for more information)
          • These demons have a common chance to drop totem pieces
          • Additionally, they have also have a chance to drop large blood money stacks, mystery boxes, and prize keys
        • Lava giants
        • Rune dragons
        • Frost dragons
        • Lava dragons
        • Lava demons
      • You can view the map for the revenent caves below:
        3GxYxNh.png
  • Skotizo (revenant caves)
    • By collecting dark totem pieces from monster drops in the revenants cave, you can use Skotizo's portal in the Revenant cave
      • When teleporting to Skotizo, you will be entering a private "instance" room
      • There is a wilderness level in Skotizo's lair, but there will not be other players there to attack you
    • Skotizo has a variety of rare drops, including:
      • Dark crystal
        • Used to upgrade revenant weapons into "Skotizo weapons"
          • Skotizo chainmace
          • Skotizo sceptre
          • Skotizo bow
            IL04ZU4.png
        • Each skotizo weapon has improved bonuses from the respective revenant weapon
        • These weapons also have the same effect as revenant weapons, but do not require revenant ether charges
          • Unlike revenant weapons, they are also not destroyed on death (but like all items, can still can be dropped on death if unprotected)
      • Skotizo pet
        • This new very rare pet has the ability to "pet silence" your opponent for 30 seconds when you hit them
        • When "pet silenced", your opponent's pet's effects will not be functional
          • With the exception of the Death pet effect, which will continue to protect +1 item on death even if pet silenced
  • Combat rework
    • Melee defense
      • Wearing "tank gear" (dharok's, torags, etc.) should now have more proper results against melee attacks
      • As opposed to tank gear, wearing low melee defense bonus equipment should feel punishing/squishy in comparison
        • Disclaimer: Low melee defense bonus (robes/dhide/etc.) isn't nerfed or more punishing than prior to the update, but compared to this recent buff on tank gear, it should feel more punishing. This should especially lead to more beneficial/rewarding switches in NH/Bridding fights.
    • Dharok's set bonus
      • Wearing full dharok's will now also give you a melee accuracy (rather than just damage) bonus based on how low your hitpoints are
    • Path finding
      • Fixed various bugs, improved the fluidity of combat following/pathing
    • Armadyl godsword (or)
      • Increased special attack accuracy bonus
    • Improved damage cap system for both standard attacks and special attacks
  • New pet fusion: Archaic wyrm pet
    ydFHLmq.png
    • Required ingredients:
      • 1x Bloodwyrm pet
      • 1x Boneguard pet
      • 100x Blood diamonds
    • Includes effects of fused pets (Boneguard and Bloodwyrm)
    • Additional effect: Prayer bonus
      • Not only does this apply for combat buffs, but also prayers such as:
        • Smite (+ Soulsplit)
        • Protection prayers
      • All prayer effects are increased by +5%

Thank you for the new rev caves/weapons, good content without adding any weapons that are too OP in PvP. Great update, worth the wait!

tbf not a fan but I understand why it took hella long. 

the whole update is based around the rev cave (besides some minor fixed etc) which is really only pvm related but I suppose it can add to the wilderness activity.

regardless unique update
