Thank you for the shoutout and welcome back to RuneScape!
Happy to see Nastroth's improvements continue to have a positive impact.
Shrike says it should be available in HM but we can have a look if its not dropping after a couple kills.
Ea Nasir strikes again.
I gotta admit I chuckled.

Read moreHow did you get footage of our new survival game? NDAs are worthless these days.
Wheres the fix?? This still happens :(
Does it!? I'll get someone to take a look for us
I hope /u/JagexRyan and /u/JagexRamen would find this concept interesting, too!
I love your idea for a conjure. I’m envisioning a graphically updated Draugen from Fremennik Trials.
I did see it :D Fun idea
One day I'd love to see us visit the Fremennik areas with more boss content. Untapped potential
yeah, that's completely my bad. timeline pushed back but still planning on doing this in the near future
Hey folks, this has been flagged up to the team to look into.
Caught up with the team on this today.
Their reasoning is basically that the method was getting a lot more use as a result of the 110 RC update, and since none of the other altars allow it, they felt it shouldn't either for consistency.
The feedback on the sudden change is completely fair, especially after all this time of it going untouched. Your feedback is with them, and they do recognise we should have thought more holistically than just 'fixing it' in a hotfix after all this time.
Based on the feedback, they're going to take review current magical thread supply/demand and make a change if it looks like one is necessary.
They're also open to potentially adding an abyss portal for the Astral Altar as a way to 'officially' support Abyss Buffs at the Astral Altar, but that's a bit of a separate issue to the Magical Thread stuff - keen to hear your thoughts either way though.
Either way, if anyone else has concerns, please let us know what/why here so we can pass it to the team while they consider the magical thread supply and demand stuff this week.
Bit of an extra note from me as well - we'll be sure to bring this to our post-launch Retrospective as something we learn from in how it was approached with the community. Timing, alternatives or even just communication when something is this long standing should be the way forward.
Thank you to everyone dropping comments here, really appreciate your time on these. Making sure they make it to the team.
u/JagexYuey will be talking to the team about this on today's Livestream too.
No one was complaining about being able to get magical threads from the astral altar. It's been 6 years. The rate for threads is already low. Just leave it in the game, it wasn't a problem.

This is a psyop by the mages at the Mage Training Arena! They want to create a monopoly in the peach market
Being worked on at the moment :)
Cool, where in the several planes of existence is Zaros though?
Erebus
I was asked this on Discord, and here's an off the cuff lore answer for you (as always out of game answers are not technically "canon" but if I get a chance and it doesn't cause a conflict I'll try to stick it in a lore book):
It was the Staff of Office of the High Priest of Loarnab during the late First Age before Zaros's invasion. After Zaros conquered the area, he set up his own priesthood. While he had a few specific commandments (like "worship no other god but me"), he didn't provide any aesthetics or iconography for this new religion.
The human priests largely incorporated their existing cult practices. Zarosianism initially had no equivalent of a "high priest". A council of cardinals were responsible for divining Zaros's will, and the office of Pontifex Maximus was not created until later. Because Zaros was humanoid (unlike Loarnab) they could depict him as carrying the Staff of Office, which communicated his authority effectively.
The actual staff may have been preserved as...

Done! Will likely go out Monday after next
can we get this locked if you already own one? my GIM just used an hours worth of energies because of it. should not be the default option and you do not need to own more than one - treat it like a boon or make it require a second item that's east to obtain like a plank
We have a ticket in for that :)
