Following a huge demand to release rare items, we hope to spark our staking scene, and give back to our loyal players for their dedication and commitment to our server.That being said, we have scheduled a full week of fun and unique events, which will give you all an equal and fair chance at obtaining yourself a rare item.
Our event is scheduled to run from Monday, March 19th (3PM EST, 12PM PST), until next Monday, March 26th. Below is a comprehensive break down as to what will be dropped, and their respective days:
Countdown to Event
Monday (March 19th) - Easter eggs, bunny ears, disk of returning, and half full wine jugs. Tuesday - Pumpkins, halloween masks, scythes. Wednesday - Santa tops, santa bottoms, candy canes, santa hat. Thursday - Reindeer hats, grinch masks, elf hats. Friday - Christmas crackers, party hats Saturday to Monday - Will include a mix of everything.
If you're keen on getting your paws on a rare, the following list is alternate ways we will be distributing said rares:
- Every two hours, a random player will be selected to obtain a rare. - Farming higher level NPC's in the wilderness, gives you a better opportunity at obtaining a rare. - Subscribers will receive a minor increase in their chance to obtaining a rare. - Once per day, there will be a "global drop", in a random selected city. - Moderator hosted events.
Conditions:
We have implemented some conditions to limit the amount of rares distributed and the amount each person is eligible to obtain.
Randomized:
Brush up on your treasure finding skills!
Randomly throughout the day, you will notice an annoucement, that informs everyone of a mysterious chest that will be spawned either randomly in the wilderness, or somewhere randomly around the world map (outside of the wilderness). It will be up to you to locate the chest, pick the lock (you don't require any additional skill to do so), and make away with the contents to safety. Keep in mind, with all reward, comes a risk! When failing to pick the lock, there is a chance you could be given a skull, teleported away, or various other things.
Experience Boosts:
This week only, we have also added elixirs, which will add an increase to experience gained. Your elixir will be a 2 dose potion, which you can use at your convenience, and will add +2 to your current experience rate. You will be able to obtain said elixirs by killing NPC's or buying them from Thessalia found in Varrock clothing store at the cost of 30K for a full elixir and 15k for a single dose. Keep in mind, these elixirs are only available during this week of events.
These elixirs will also be given to new players who sign up and play during our events week. All elixirs are non-tradeable and will last for 2 hours each dose. The elixirs will not stack (so you can't double dose for more experience).
Elixirs will be removed from you inventories and banks following the end of events week. So please use them if you get them!
To find out when you can use your next dosage do the following command. ::Elixir or ::Info . Both will allow you to see time left on current elixir before next sip!
Events:
Try out our new event!
Moderators now have the ability to host "survival" events, which have Iban bubbles spawned randomly, which you will have to avoid in hopes to be the last man standing.
Community Chest:
Keen on donating?
We have added a "community chest" which will give you the ability to donate items for events. The community chest will have an interface, with items that are acceptable.
Other Information:
We would also like to congratulate "Mod Murda" on his promotion to player moderator. Mod Murda has demonstrated he is active, knowledgable, and has the passion to assist within the RSCEmulation world. Please join us in welcoming and congratulating him.
Fixes/Changes:
We have also included a few fixes and changes that will be included with this event week. The following is a comprehensive list as to what we have changed/fixed/updated:
- We have corrected a bug which caused an increase in latency within the client (causing lag spikes), due to some parameters passed by our new launcher. - We have rewritten some of our game core, which speeds up the transmission of packets, and should increase performance (undergoing further testing). - Included new elixir sprites. - Changed it so that chat tabs no longer "auto switch" upon other actions. - Fixed a minor bug where the batch progress bar was opposite selections in the settings menu. - Path handling has been rewritten. - Readded rune plate mail body to Oziach shop. - Stat reduction. You will be able to reduce experience from 99 to 61, at the cost of 2 subscription cards, or from level 59 to 1, at the cost of 1 subscription card. Level 60 will be deemed a "dead" level, where you will not be able to reduce to or from.
As always, we would like to thank you all, for your continued support towards RSCEmulation. We hope you continue to enjoy RSCEmulation, your number one RuneScape Classic server.
1) Please put timer until event starts & until event switches to next; 2) When you get a drop, please put notification so the person doesn't miss it; 3) When hosting once per day drop-out , please also think of Europeans who have work on next day; 4) "We have implemented some conditions to limit the amount of rares distributed and the amount each person is eligible to obtain" - How does this rule work?

get levels it takes literally 1 day of training to be high enough to kill anything in the game
-All wilderness monsters will drop a rare, but the higher level the NPC are, the better drop chance. -Restriction has been added for the giveaways which are held every 2 hours. It doesn't matter if you double log or etc, it will still only select one of your characters online, so it's fair for everyone.
Zubrils: Thank you for your suggestions, I will make sure I implement those!
I have added a countdown timer to the spoiler button in the original post.
Awesome! I really don’t think they could have been implemented any better, and the elixer’s are definitely a cool addition as well. Fabulous job, guys!
