Will this also change the physical appearance of longbows?
Yeah, no more shield

Good afternoon everyone! It's Gamejam and I'm back once again, to share some updates on the Fletching re-tiering update which Mod Stu and I have been working on these past couple gamejams.
Fletching suffers from the same inconsistencies Mining & Smithing used to pre-rework, which makes levelling throughout the skill difficult especially as you reach the higher levels. With this update we plan to fix these inconsistencies - adding in and or re-tiering missing weapons and ammunition.
While we've been plugging away at it in dev during these last couple gamejams, we're now ready to share more specifics on what we're aiming to achieve. I've written up a design document which you can find here: Fletching Re-tiering Document
We'd love to hear your thoughts on all of it so lets us know in this thread, on Twitter, or on Discord under the "Right Click Examine" section > Jmod Topics > Fletching Retier
Thank you!

Hey hey, thanks for reporting! We have a ticket in to fix this :)
We had a really fun time getting creative about the time rune lore and how you access the temple, how it changes on each entry etc.
All praise goes to Mod Alex for the environment work for the temple, he did a crazy amazing job on it
Edit: Came back to extend credit to Mod Dbarker, who was responsible for, and did an insane job with, the concept art of the temple
Why masterwork staff has t95 accuracy rather than t100? Atleast according to skillguide in game
This is a bug which we've got a ticket to fix :)
Bug:
Unable to get enchanted key from Jorral after being told to by "myself" at the new alter. The enchanted key is not in bank, quest caravan or keyring. I completed those quests I used it for many years ago and guess I destroyed it for bank space.
This may be because you have mjolnirs in your bank. You'll need to get rid of them somehow before reclaiming the key. We have a ticket to fix this issue
Uh, Cywir is supposed to give 2 essence, right? I broke down 1... and it gave me two. But when I broke down the second it only gave me 1. Send help D:
Hi hi, do you mind sending me your RSN so that i can send to our teams to verify?
The bug was hotfixed not long after update so this shouldn't occur but it's always possible something was missed. Although, some items will intentionally give 1 essence if it has a low degrade % when broken down.
Heya, yeah it's additive, so the 2nd unlock will mean +10% overall
It's unintentional, we've got a ticket to fix it
Looks good
Pouch being at 105 is a good balance between being a useful unlock and a reward item.
Did you consider any balancing changes to obtaining essence? A maximum of 6k per hour from the "intended" source is a bit low in modern times, especially with roughly a 25% consumption increase.
Did you consider any tweaks to the runic attuner to make it feel a bit more impactful as a skilling offhand?
Did you consider any balancing changes to obtaining essence?
It's definitely something we discussed wanting to do, and we agreed we want to take a more rounded look at the situation and any possible solutions for a future update should the opportunity arise

This also came up quite a bit it sat outside the remit of this update. I was also heavily reminded about it at Runefest speaking to a bunch of players XD. I've got it noted down as another thing to look at for a possible future update
Read morePLEASE NOTE - There was a bug discovered in the Runefest build with breaking down seismic weapons, attuned crystal weapons, and Cywir of the elders weapons at the Dragonkin Forge. They give 1 essence, but should give 2.
Please refrain from breaking down any of these weapons while we work on a hotfix to deploy ASAP. I will update my comment when this is done.
Thank you all for your patience!
EDIT: This has now been hotfixed as of 10 minutes ago.
Thank you once again for your patience while we worked on the hotfix <3
Bear Barrage: new ancient magicks?
You cast Bear Barrage!
.....
It was bearly effective...
There must be a clue location somewhere in the area
Noted for consideration 🫡 more hats!
The residents of Ardougne have complained for years about the bear infestation that has taken place on the outskirts of their city, destroying the local scenery and threatening innocent adventurers.
A dispatch team has been called out to deal with the situation. Updates to follow. More news at 11.
bear jail in witchhaven soon
Unfortunately the respondents can bearly fit them all in and will have to resort to other alternatives...
This looks real good to me, we haven't had a new Magic rune since really Astral Runes (Armadyl doesn't count). I can't wait to make jokes about the time altar having come out several years in the past.
I think a couple of the skilling spells need to be renamed and possibly condensed though. Fast Rockertunities and Longer Lumberjack's Intuition definitely sound like placeholders and possibly expose the game mechanics a bit too much. "Seek Rockertunities" follows the verb schema of most Lunar Spells (like "Fire Urn"), though "Seek/Improve Intuition" is a bit more clunky.
They're definitely placeholder, it was actually just this week Mod Frosch was brainstorming names with the rest of the team!
Out of curiosity, does the weapon imbue involve traveling to all of the altars, or will there be a difference in speed/weapon effect/xp/damage/etc for imbuing at particular altars? While I understand it would likely cause a lot of balance work, it would be really flavorful if the altars utilized imbued weapons differently.
We had a fair bit of discussion on this, considering how this might look for potentially retro-fitting to levels below 100 in the future. While it's still subject to change, there is a small bonus for going to elemental or catalytic altars as part of the skills new levelling benefits
