Sliske's Endgame Replayability

01/30/2018

This week we meddle with time and bring a few more previously Treasure Hunter-exclusive items in-game. More below!


Sliske’s Endgame

Many of us go to bed replaying old conversations. What if I’d not said that? What if I’d said that instead? The options are endless, and the sad truth is that we’ll likely never know the answers. But I wonder: two winters ago, how many of you lay awake wondering, ‘What if I’d supported that god? How would things have changed?’ As of today, you can find out consequence free.

Your favourite love-to-hate Mahjarrat is back for seconds, thirds, fourths and everything that comes after, should you desire it, and he’s brought his maze along for the ride. That’s right: Sliske’s Endgame is now replayable, and we’ve given you the option to play with the past. Want to know how you’d have fared in the maze with a different allegiance? Just head to ‘Options’ on the replay interface and temporarily change the past with a tick of a box.

The important thing is that none of these playthroughs actually affect your canon adventure, meaning you can experiment as much as you like. That said, we’re also providing the option of a second blast at your canon story for those who want it, but be mindful that you can only do this once, and these changes will be permanent. What’s more, if you’re taking this second and final stab at canon, you can’t change the past as you can with normal, non-canon replays.

Oh, and before I forget: there’s a special something waiting for you at the end. No spoilers here, though. Chat to Relomia in Draynor Village to get restarted. Happy god hunting!


Newly obtainable in-game this week

Both the Elder Simulacrum Outfit and Skill Outfit Head add-ons are migrating over Treasure Hunter to be earned in-game, in response to your feedback.

Elder Simulacrum Outfit

You’ll start receiving simulacrum fragments while training Divination (level 70), which you can then fuse together at Divination level 80 using Invention (level 20) to make the five pieces of each of the Divine Simulacrum outfits: the Divination Energy outfit, the Divination Chronicle outfit and the Divination Memory outfit - given you don’t own them already. Once you have all three, you can combine them to make the best of the bunch: the Elder Simulacrum Outfit, which gives you the following benefits:

  • Three daily teleports to any wisp colony that you have both the levels and the quest requirements to visit.
  • Unlimited teleports to May Stormbrewer or Guthix's Cave, given you’ve completed The World Wakes.
  • Seven percent chance to harvest two memories at once, providing you with twice the XP and divine energy.
  • Seven percent chance to obtain two chronicle fragments or elder chronicles at once when harvesting a wisp or an elder wisp.
  • Five percent chance to get five times the energy while harvesting wisps.
  • Activates the Diviner’s outfit bonus (if owned and depending on how many outfit pieces you have), even when the set is in your bank or being held by Diango.
  • All the benefits of a Modified diviner's headwear, if owned.
  • Chat to Orla Fairweather west of Lumbridge crater for more information about simulacrum fragments. And remember: the higher your Divination level, the more of them you’ll receive!

    Patch Notes

  • Dwarven and Invention multi-cannons can now be reloaded and repaired (resetting their despawn time) by left-clicking them.
