alora 18 Posted December 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Hello everyone, We are proud to announce that this Christmas brings back our 3rd iteration of the Christmas Giveaway event! The idea behind this event is simple: Buy tickets to the drawing with in-game GP and have a chance to win great IRL prizes, including a PS4 Slim 1TB Console Bundle, Apple AirPods & a Redragon S101 Gaming Keyboard & Mouse! On top of this, we're also giving away Alora hoodies to another 5 winners. For those of you interested in a hoodie, we've also taken our Merch shop live for a limited time, and you'll be able to customize & purchase your own merch during this Holiday season! If you head over to Varrock, you'll find that Santa ran into some trouble and needs your help this Christmas! You can find him in Varrock square surrounded by protesting children, and if you help him he certainly will be more generous with this year's gifts. We've also launched our Christmas sale, with many limited-time items and a hefty 30% token bonus on all purchases! Lastly, we've included a number of content updates, bug fixes and QoL that you can check out below. We hope you enjoy this update! Christmas giveaway: To show our gratitude for a wonderful 3 years of continued support that we've received from the community, we'd like to get everyone into the Holiday spirit by hosting another giveaway with IRL prizes this Christmas! You can enter in-game by purchasing tickets from Haris at home (leaning on Well of Goodwill). Tickets cost 20m GP each, and each player (or household if multiple people play from your house) can only have 40 tickets at most. This is very important, if your name is drawn and we find that you’ve purchased more than 40 tickets on multiple accounts you will be disqualified. The drawing will be on January 1st, 2019 at 09:00 EST. Prizes are unlocked as everyone collectively hits milestones. Prizes: Guaranteed prizes: 5 different Alora hoodies will be given out! You'll be able to pick the color/style of the hoodie. 5b milestone: Redragon S101 Gaming Keyboard & Mouse 10b milestone: Apple AirPods 25b milestone: PS4 1TB Slim Console Bundle FAQ: How many people will win? Assuming the full 25b gets donated, there are 8 prizes for 8 players. 3 top prizes listed above, and then the 5 hoodies. Can the same person win multiple items? To make it fair for everyone, if the drawing lands on the same person twice, there will be a re-roll. To make this fair, the top 3 prizes will be drawn first, and then the hoodies drawn afterwards. Can anyone enter? Yes, anyone can enter, including staff. If it reaches 25b for the PS4 Console, can the other prizes still be won? Yes, if the 25b is reached, all 3 prizes are rewarded, as well as the 5 sweaters. If only 10b is reached, the first two prizes and the sweaters will be rewarded. What if I win but do not want the prize? You can also take 1.5x the amount in Alora tokens, or cash equivalent to the value of the prize (via PayPal). I have a sibling who also plays, can we each enter 40 times? Unfortunately, there is a cap on the number of tickets and it is set at 40 per household. This is to ensure everyone gets a fair chance and that nobody is cheating. We will be looking into the winners to make sure that they fairly purchased their tickets. How will the winner be picked? A random number will be picked, which will correlate to an entry on a list of names. Your name will appear on the list as many times as you’ve purchased tickets, meaning the more tickets you purchase the more likely it is to land on your name. Store updates: The Christmas Sale is now live! It will run until January 1st, offering a hefty 30% bonus applied to any token purchase! Limited-time items: Santa costume Wise old man’s santa hat Christmas cracker: Christmas crackers are back again after a 2 year hiatus on Alora! Simply use these on another player in-game, and one of you will end up with the prize. You are guaranteed a party hat, but if you’re lucky, you might get one of the following partyhats from the cracker (if you hit the special partyhat table): Rainbow partyhat (2% chance) Black partyhat (8% chance) Partyhat with specs (10% chance) Wise old man’s partyhat/santa hat (15% chance) Sale items: Many items are now on sale, ranging from Cosmetic/Ultimate mystery boxes to Elite void set & the new Elysian ornament kit. You can find a full list of sale items on the left-hand side of store: https://www.alora.io/store/ Donator transfer changes: We’ve heard feedback from the community, and we have decided to allow another transfer for Uber donator+ accounts. This means that Uber+ ranks will be allowed 2 donator status transfers instead of 1. Alora Merch: For a limited time, you can pick yourself up some Alora merchandise this holiday season! There are numerous options to choose from (sweaters, t-shirts, long-sleeves and hoodies) and many different colors. You'll also have the choice of the logo being on the front only, or front & back. Check out the selection at https://www.alora.io/merch Server Updates: Christmas game updates: Christmas event: As always, Santa needs you to help save Christmas this year! Santa's mischievous son, Jack Frost, has been causing quite the ruckus in the Christmas bakery. With the help of Anti-Santa, you'll have to get to the bottom of things and make sure the bakery resumes operation! By doing so, you'll be given a glorious Gingerbread gnome shield which has the ability to swap between 3 colours. Alora has been snowed in! You'll find that the landscape around you is now quite different. If you prefer to not have snow, you can type in ;;snow and re-log to remove it. Pet/Boss festivity: Certain pets and NPCs are now wearing holiday rares (party hats, Santa hats, etc) for the holiday season! Bug fixes: The Amulet of Torture(or) is now worth the same as the Amulet of Torture. The Necklace of anguish(or) is now worth the same as the Necklace of Anguish.

Fixed a bug that caused losing a duel to increase the "duelist" achievement by 2 duels instead of 1. Updated the Iorwerth dungeon Bloodvelds to Mutated Bloodvelds. Updated the Iorwerth dungeon Nechryaels to Greater Nechryaels. Removed the banker spawns outside of the Forthos dungeon. Iron bolts can now be used with a rune crossbow. Players can now stash all colors of village sandals in the exam room STASH unit. Previously, this unit only accepted brown villager sandals. You can no longer pick up 2 looting bags if you have an "open" bag in your inventory. Skotizos that are spawned by admins (at ;;events) will now be treated more like the Wilderness Skotizo, creating loot for up to 3 players rather than just one. It will not upgrade or drop any emblems, though. Dragonstone amme equip slot has been fixed (it was previously worn in the weapon slot). Quality of Life: 300 bowls have been added to Trader Stan’s Trading post. Players can now fill empty bowls with water by using a water source or the humidify spell. The music tab will now show how many songs are unlocked. Added barbarian fishing spots near the Chambers of Xeric area. Added harpoon/cage fishing spot to Piscarilius in Zeah. A text warning has been added notifying players to turn off HD mode for interfaces that are blank/not working in HD. If there are any interfaces that don’t work in HD that don’t provide a warning, pm me on the forums and I can add one. Bird snares can now be found in Land's end by searching a specific crate. Box traps can now be found in Land's end by searching a specific crate. Added Land’s end(zeah) npc spawns. Added Lovakengj npc spawns. Added Hosidius npc spawns. Added Kourend city npc spawns. Kourend guards can now be pickpocketed, sharing the same loot table as other city guards. Pie boosts: Summer pies now provide a temporary +5 agility boost and 20 run energy.

Wild pies now provide a temporary +4 range boost and a +5 slayer boost. Youtuber rank changes: As part of a new initiative to try to encourage new content creators, the Youtuber rank now acts as an extreme donator rank. The requirements for the Youtuber rank have been slightly changed. Players now require 50+ subscribers(or followers for hitbox/other streaming platforms), and 5 or more videos made on Alora within the past 5 weeks. Players must also have been creating videos on Alora for at least 2 weeks, to make sure multiple videos aren’t uploaded in quick succession just to obtain the rank. Youtubers/Creators now have their own unique lounge. To access this lounge, they can type any of the following commands: ::cz, ::creatorzone, ::creatorlounge, ::cl This lounge doesn’t boast any special features, it’s just a unique place to hang out with a bank. Steam Battlestaff upgrade kit: The Steam Battlestaff upgrade kit has been added to the vote shop for 160 points. This upgrade kit can also be used on the Mystic steam staff. Lava Battlestaff upgrade kit: The Lava Battlestaff upgrade kit has been added to the vote shop for 160 points. This upgrade kit can also be used on the Mystic lava staff. Treasure Chest Changes: We’ve added 60 new items to the Easy, Medium, Hard, Elite, and Master treasure chest box. We’ve added a Beginner treasure trails chest, with 12 new items. The full list of items that are now available in the treasure chest can be found here: https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Mahogany_treasure_chest Players can now store armour sets that have a skirt variant in their POH. Previously, only armour sets with platelegs were accepted. Defensive magic auto casting. Players can now autocast spells on the defensive mode. This mode provides a base multiplier of 1.33x magic experience for hits instead of the normal 2x. The base multiplier of 1.33x hit points is the same for both defensive and regular casting. The base multiplier is 1x for defence when defensive casting is selected. Konar slayer task changes: Konar can now assign Kalphite lair kalphites as a task: Any kalphites, including the kalphite queen can be killed for this task. Players can now kill Cerberus on taverley dungeon hellhound tasks. Players can now kill the Grotesque guardians on slayer tower gargoyle tasks. Players can now kill Skotizo on Greater demon/Black demon tasks in the catacombs. Players can now the Dagannoth kings on dagannoth tasks on Waterbirth isle. Impling world spawns: A new system for impling world spawns has been introduced, and the system works in such a way that a select amount of implings will always be spawned at some location in the world. 5-10% of these implings will be either dragon or lucky implings Once an impling is caught, a new impling will appear in a different part of the world after a short delay. Implings will spawn on either Zeah or the mainland/karamja. Implings that are not caught after a given period of time will re-spawn in a new location. This is a mechanism to avoid un-reachable implings being stuck in their location forever. This system is new, and may need tweaking, so we’ll be open to feedback regarding it. If you feel that there are too many or too few implings, or that there are too many/too few implings of a given type, feel free to send me a pm on the forums. A teleport to the Taverley farming patch has been added to the farmer’s blessing. Nettle tea/stew: Players can now make nettle tea: To do so, players must pick nettles off the ground(can be found in various places around the game, including Edgeville). Picking nettles without gloves will do 1-2 damage, so be sure to wear gloves! Adding the nettles to a bowl of water will create nettle-water, which can be consumed for 1 hp. It can also be heated on a cooking source to create nettle-tea, which provides 3 hp, and 52 base cooking experience, requiring 20 cooking. Stews can now be made: To make a stew, simply use a potato on a bowl of water, and then add cooked chicken or cooked meat to the incomplete stew. One that’s done, head the uncooked stew on a cooking source, and you will receive 117 base cooking experience. Cooking stews requires a cooking level of 25, and players stop burning them at 58 cooking. Happy Holidays!
