10 Year Veteran The newest skill for BattleScape has been released - Runecrafting! In addition to this, hiscores for boss killcounts, combat level memory for stat setting, and iron man status removal and armour reclaiming have been added.
Runecrafting
Use talismans to teleport to altars to craft runes and combination runes, or travel to the ZMI altar and craft a variety of runes. To carry more essence at once, travel to the Abyss and obtain pouches that can hold essence for you. While talismans can be obtained through other monsters, the Abyss creatures drop most talismans and are some of their only drops.
Boss Killcount Hiscores
The hiscores have expanded, and you can now track and show off your boss killcounts through your hiscores profile. A drop-down option has been added to the hiscores drop-down to compete for the most kills on multiple bosses found throughout BattleScape.
Iron Adam - Armour and Status Removal
Adam has been added west of the Edgebille bank near the make-over mage and the combat instructor. Speaking to him will allow you to remove your iron man status, but to do so you are required to have a bank PIN set first. Adam will also sell the appropriate armour to game modes who had unique armour.
Combat Stat Setting - Normal Mode
On normal mode, when setting a stat higher than your current stat, you would be given a -25% multiplier toward drop rates. This in itself isn't bad if you choose you don't want to spend any time training, but it meant that you could only ever set your stats lower, and never set them back higher. Wanted to be able to swap your account between a pure and main depending on your current activity? This was only possible by retraining after lowering your stats if you want to avoid the drop rate penalty.
Assuming your account isn't already penalized from setting stats, when you achieve a new high level, that level will be recorded. This way you could train your defence to level 99, lower it down to level 1, and then later return it to level 99 without suffering a penalty.
If you would like to reset the drop rate penalty without creating a new account, you have two options: one is resetting your combat stats to 1 using the "reset all combat levels" option. Alternatively, at login, your account is checked to see if it is capable of wearing a max cape. If it is, the drop rate penalty is removed.
