PvM Bingo
PvM Bingo is a server-wide, timed competition. Everyone plays the same card, but each player's progress is their own.
- Each card is a 5x5 board where every tile is an item drop. Hover over a tile to see where it drops.
- Completing a pattern wins one of 6 rewards: One Line, Two Lines, Three Lines, Four Corners, X and Full Board.
- Every pattern completion is announced to the whole server.
- Open the board with
::bingoor the Bingo button in the Knowledge Center.
Revenant Maledictus
Revenant Maledictus is a new Wilderness boss reached through the crevice in the Revenant Caves.
- Its cave is in level 39 Wilderness and the fight is single-way combat. It requires 126 combat.
- The first hit starts a 6:00 timer. When it runs out, every contributor is rewarded.
- An on-screen overlay shows your damage, your drop chance and the time remaining.
- It attacks everyone nearby with ranged blasts, Ice and Blood tile marks and an Air Surge that ignores prayers.
- Everyone earns PKP equal to their damage (up to 10,000), plus kill count and Revenant Slayer credit.
- Your drop chance is your share of the damage ×5, so around 5 players win a drop each kill.
- Skulled players get 20% better drop rates.
- It was added to the Collection log (15 Monster Crates on completion), the daily hiscores and PvM Bingo.
Notable drops are the Lost twisted fragment (1/8,000), the Lil' Maledictus pet (1/5,000) and the Amulet of avarice (1/100).
Amulet of Avarice
- While worn you stay skulled and get +30% accuracy and damage against revenants (does not stack with a Slayer helmet).
- Normal loot in the Revenant Caves and the Slayer Cave is noted. Food, potions, artefacts and uniques stay as they are.
- The top damage dealer on each Maledictus kill gets Forinthry Surge for 30 minutes if they are wearing the amulet. It raises the bonus against all revenants to 35% accuracy and damage, with its own skull.
- Killing a player who has Surge while wearing your own amulet takes over their remaining time. Taking the amulet off or dying ends it.
Vespula's and Craw's Twisted Bow
Two new Twisted bow upgrades were added: Vespula's twisted bow and Craw's twisted bow. Both need 75 Ranged and no arrows, and keep the normal Twisted bow magic scaling and 250 max hit cap. Their special effects only work against monsters. Both are tradeable and can be dismantled back into the Twisted bow and kit. Vespula's venom also works on venom-immune monsters.
| Twisted bow | Vespula's twisted bow | Craw's twisted bow | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ranged Attack | +70 | +120 | +145 |
| Ranged Strength | +20 | +20 | +20 |
| Defence | – | +15 all styles | – |
| Prayer | – | – | +10 |
| Ammo | Arrows | None needed (dragon arrow built in) | None needed (dragon arrow built in) |

| Speed | Normal | Normal | 1 tick faster against revenants and Third Age monsters |
| Healing | – | 100% of venom damage as HP and Prayer | 1% of damage per tile as HP and Prayer (max 10%) |
| Thorns | – | 8 on miss, 4 on hit | – |
| How to get | Existing | Twisted bow + Vespula's venom (Chambers of Xeric, 1/5,000) | Twisted bow + Lost twisted fragment (Revenant Maledictus, 1/8,000) |
Chugging Barrel
The Chugging barrel lets you drink several potions with one click.
- It holds 5 potion slots of up to 100 doses each. One click drinks a dose from every filled slot.
- It is obtained from Skilling Crates. The disassembled barrel is tradeable.
- Up to 4 load-outs can be set up from the bank and refilled in one click.
- Spawnable potions are filled for free wherever you are allowed to spawn.
- Your potions and load-outs are saved to your character, not the item.
- Drinking works in the Wilderness, but you cannot withdraw from it in PvP areas.
- It breaks on a dangerous death. Repairing it costs 1,000 PKP.
- It doubles the duration of potions such as the Goading potion and Overload potion.
New Slayer tasks and superiors
- Krystilia now gives four new tasks: Jelly (52 Slayer), Dust devil (65), Nechryael (80) and Smoke devil (93).
- They are found in the Slayer Cave and the Divine Slayer Cave. The enchanted gem teleports you straight there.

Other changes
