    • This limted time event will be active until: November 6th, 2019 so don't miss out!
       
    • Soul catching
      • To catch souls, you must obtain a poltergust from Jack the ripper at home
        • The poltergust can also be used to right-click "Poltergust-pull" spirits from spots that are hard to catch!
      • There are two different types of souls to catch:
      1. Defeat Tormented souls found scattering the wilderness, very similar to blood-revenants!
        • These souls must be killed with a Poltergust, and have some rewarding drop tables!
      2. Free Lost souls which are found roaming safe F2P areas (varrock, lumbridge, falador, etc.)
        • We've fixed a lot of map issues with these locations, allowing you to travel freely!
        • Lost souls are more peaceful than tormented souls and require you to help them pass on to the otherside
        • You will find them in different colors, indicating their rarity and reward potential:
          • Blue: Common, fair rewards
          • Green: Uncommon, good rewards
          • Purple: Rare, great rewards!
             
    • World boss (Blood reaper)
      • The Blood reaper will spawn every four hours at one of the following locations:
        • Inside the mage arena
        • Outside the Rogue's castle (Rogue's chest)
        • Black chinchompa hill
      • Even in single-zone combat multiple players can attack it, and even still attack eachother
      • Every player who deals damage to it will receive drops!

         
    • Halloween loot chests
      • Every two hours, a halloween loot chest will appear at a random spot in the wilderness
        • An announcement will be made to the server when it spawns, indicating its wilderness level
      • This chest can be looted by 5 players before it disappears and the timer resets (one loot per person)
        • Each player who loots the chest will receive Magic sickness for 5 minutes!

           
    • Player-killing
      • Edgeville PKing guarantees 25-55 tokens per kill
      • Hotspot PKs guarantee 75-100 tokens per kill
        • Edgeville hotspot will stack with the Edgeville PKing reward!
      • Tournaments sometimes reward the first place winner with H'ween tokens!

         
    • Exclusive rewards
      • This h'ween event brings in some great exclusive items, including but definitely not limited to..
         
      • Blood reaper scythe
        • This scythe is crafted by attaching a Blood reaper scythe hilt to a Scythe of vitur
        • The blood reaper scythe has the same effects & special attack as the Scythe of vitur, but greater equipment bonuses!
        • The hilt is obtained either as a very rare drop from the blood reaper, or from a H'ween 2019 casket (rare item in the event chest)

      • Reaper bludgeon
        • This bludgeon has stats that are improved in comparison to the 'Abyssal bludgeon'
        • The Special attack acts similarly to Abyssal bludgeon, but rather than receiving bonus damage based on your missing prayer points, you receive bonus damage based on your missing HP
        • The bludgeon is obtained either as a rare drop from the blood reaper, or from a H'ween 2019 casket (rare item in the event chest)

Gameplay improvements:

  • Combat improvements
    • Made overall improvements to combat's pathing system
      • This includes things such as:
        • The way your character trails/follows your target when chasing
        • The way your character runs up to (and attacks in the midst of running) a target
        • Much more!
    • Added the proper granite maul mechanic 
      • You will no longer be able to gmaul spec players from improper/far distances
      • You are also now required to click your target shortly after clicking the spec bar if you want to "insta spec" from range/mage combat
      • As a result, you can now achieve combos that may have not been possible before, albeit requiring more skill & technique!
    • Added the proper dragon thrownaxe mechanic
      • You are also now required to click your target after switching to dragon thrownaxes
      • Fixed issues with delays on the special attack
    • Made further improvements to the protection prayer system
      • Removed the old "faster response" prayers for Oldschool 07 tick players, as it was misleading and did not help very much
      • Changes have been made to the system which will hopefully prevent or mitigate registration issues
    • Fixed an issue with improper PJing (sometimes involving auto-retaliation) in non-edgeville singles PKing
    • Teleblock accuracy is improved when equipped with high tier magic gear
    • Granite maul (or) special attack now has an accuracy boost in non-pure PKing
    • Fixed an issue that caused SoTD special attack (and special attacks alike) to improperly activate in the midst of weapon switching

       
  • Attack options
    • Added a new & improved attack option system, allowing for more variety and a differentiation between players and NPCs/Bots
    • This will also include spell-casting on players and NPCs
      • For example "Always right-click" will require you to right-click for spell casting unlike before
    • To access this, simply click the attack option toggle button in your options tab
    • Once clicked, a menu will appear in your chat box

  • Graphical improvements
    • Fixed an issue with AGS animations in Oldschool graphics
    • Added the new "ornate" look for the granite maul (or)

      jLujC1p.png
       
  • Miscellaneous
    • You can now rename your loadouts (added on a late September hotfix)
    • PoH head items are now untradeable to prevent scamming and misleading trades
    • Removed the blood money CTRL hover knowledgebase link due to intrusion when actively playing
    • Made improvements to the Pet fuse box rates when opening promo packages with a Grand luck falcon pet
    • Added the boneguard PKing treasure effect to the Grand luck falcon pet
    • The Well of goodwill slayer point boost will now stack with your PoH crystal slayer point boost!
    • Added SPK Youtuber Metal raimon to the default youtuber list when opening a referral box as a new player!

Bug fixes:

  • Fixed an issue that would cause all your bank items to have the "Release" option until you reload your client, even if they aren't placeholders
  • Fixed an issue where you'd receive an "Your inventory is full!" message when attempting to exchange coins for bags in the wilderness, even when you should be able to
  • Fixed an issue where blood-revenant catchers were tradeable
  • Removed an unintentional "Corporeal beast is weakened" message when fighting corp, which would often spawn the chatbox
  • Fixed an improper combat-level for the elite zone revenant orks
  • Fixed an issue with brackish blade's special attack bar not appearing
  • Fixed an improper non-wilderness safe zone in the wild
  • Fixed an improper ags (or) crush bonus, which was meant to be +10 more than it was
  • Like 2
  • Thanks 1

Often smaller fixes (that dont require your client to update) get done before a large update, and get posted in the update thread afterwards.
