Am I dumb or do I need to grind lots of coins to buy a spooky outfit to do the quest?

You can use a variety of other outfits , check out the list in the blog - here

If your really stuck check out Thessalia's Fine Clothes in Varrock for an easy outfit

No mention at all of Ironman Mode’s 10-year anniversary? A lot of Irons have been curious about what sort of fun rewards there might be. As a reminder, here’s what came with the 5-year anniversary:

Just recently Ironman Mode celebrated its 5 year anniversary! To celebrate this we've added some special rewards for accounts that have been an Ironman for 5+ years!

  • A broadcast will trigger when an account hits the 5 year ironman milestone
  • A special title has been added for Ironmen and Hardcore Ironmen, no spoilers so you'll have to find this one out for yourself!
  • A special trimmed version of the ironman armour!

If you think you're eligible speak to Mr Ex to trigger the rewards above!

The news post from last week about it seems pretty clear it’s specifically for the boss you get the drop from. So yes, if you miss Osseus from the first week you cannot get it (unless it’s a tradable unlock token)

It's tradeable iirc

Hi, did that mtx message from Pips ever come out?

I made the news post in August saying we were beginning a community consultation, that’s what we’ve been doing. Including surveys and focus groups. That is ongoing.

Someone said a jmod said that it would take a week and a half to fix the artifact collections not being collected in order. Hotfix today and now they are dropped in order.

Jagex can do so many things so fast... It is so crazy when they say it'll take 2-5x longer than it actually does.

The Jmod was just talking people through the process, Monday's update is very important to the launch of GIM the following week and so we are bein incredibly cautious with adding in quick fixes.

If those fixes cause more issues it can have a compounding affect and our QA team is already stretched getting ready for GIM, so in this instance the dev listened to players, looked into the situation, found a solution, ensured it not only solved the problem at hand but wouldn't cause a knock on effect and then pushed it through the hotfix pipeline to get it out as early as possible all the while openly communicating in real time with players about the potential timeline.
