Hey Etherealians,

Hey Etherealians,

The Pest drone will spawn every 4 hours, in which a portal to enter the arena will spawn at Void Knights' Outpost near the bank. Like other world bosses, contributing players only need to deal at least 1 damage to be eligible for full loot. The fight is geared to be easy, but players will still have to work together to kill it in a timely manner! 

In addition to guaranteed Pest Control points and a chance for Void Knight equipment, the notable drop from the Pest Drone is the new Gilded void patch - these can be attached to the Void knight gloves, Void helmets, and Elite void robes to increase their stats. Additionally, when the full gilded void set is equipped their damage and accuracy boosting effects are increased by 50% from their Elite version.







Wilderness Achievement Diary



The Wilderness achievement diary has been added, bringing some new achievements to grind for some nice rewards! Notable rewards for completing each set of achievements include:

Easy: All webs will now be guaranteed to be successfully cut with a sharp weapon and the Wilderness resource area will be free to enter.

Medium: Ecumenical key drop rates will be twice as common and you can hold up to 5 instead of 3.

Hard: You will now have the ability to set your destination when using Wilderness obelisks and player kills will reward 25% more blood money.

Elite: Dark fishing bait is no longer required to fish dark crabs and unique Wilderness-based Slayer drops will be 20% more common.

Wilderness swords - specifically the 3rd and 4th tiers will have a teleport option to the Fountain of Rune.

Finishing all the achievements will grant an Imbued zaros cape recipe and Pet greater demon! The pet greater demon has a passive event of increasing damage and accuracy by 10% against demons.





There's also individual perks that can be awarded from certain achievements!

Wild Duplication - Grants a 5% chance per level to double loot from Larran's chest, the wilderness slayer drop table, and Wilderness reward caskets.

Wilderness Resourcefulness - You will receive 20% bonus experience within the Wilderness.

Revenant Relinquisher - Acts as a Bracelet of ethereum in terms of Revenant protection, and increases damage and accuracy by 10% against Revenants.

Theatre of Blood Additions

The Theatre of Blood now has a collection log reward associated with it! Unfortunately we are currently unable to provide rewards retroactively, so we've decided to make the reward from it more lucrative! Presenting the Ghrazi polearm - a mixture between the Sentinel polearm and Ghrazi rapier, craftable by the recipe received from completing the log. To get the Sinhaza shrouds required to finish the log, speak with the Mysterious stranger outside to receive a cape for the following killcounts: 10, 25, 50, 100, and 250.





The Ghrazi polearm loses the benefits of increased damage against Desert monsters, but has added stats as well as a new passive effect: a 10% chance to drain 10% of your current hitpoints to deal 30% extra damage and accuracy for the hit.

QoL Features

Some QoL features have been added, such as some interfaces being revamped!





You can also use Sanguine dust on Lil' Zik now to give it the ability to metamorphosis! These new pets retain her pet effect as well.



You can now right click the home teleport in your spellbook to access the teleport interface.



Changed some healing effects to show a healing hitsplat, but note that this does not apply to everything yet!

Hey Etherealians,

Today's update brings a long awaited update - Achievement relics! These can be accessed by trading Two-Pints at home next to the max hit dummy - which will bring up the new interface!

Achievement Relics

The first part of the updates are the new achievement relics!



You can select between relics on the left, which clicking it will bring up the information about the perk, how many achievement points it costs to add to your relic set, and which set effects it applies to.



Your relic set is displayed at the top - but first let me explain what a relic set is. A relic set can have up to 7 relics on it once, and you can only have as many perks as your achievement points can handle. Once you select the activate button on the bottom, all perks you have selected in your set will activate for 24 hours - during these 24 hours you cannot add or remove perks in your set! This will make it so the choices you make for your set for the day will matter a lot!

Each relic will be a part of a set effect as well. These are additional buffs that are activated depending on how many relics of that set are activated in your current relic set! Each set effect will be displayed on the bottom of each perk, and when they are activated the full effect will be shown when the "Set effects" button is clicked!



Some relics are definitely more powerful than others, and thus cost more achievement points. We hope these are strong enough for yall and make PvM and skilling easier!

Ring of Resources

The ring of resources is a new ring that gives a 10% experience boost while worn, and also gives a 10% chance to automatically note a gathered resource! This ring can be obtained as a rare loot from the friendly tree spirit, obtainable through the relic set effect Happy Tree Friends.

Ingame name: Dead Vibes

Position Applying for: Server Support

Timezone : GMT+1 / BST (United Kingdom)

Days and Times where you are available: Monday - Friday 9am-5pm then 12pm-3am. Saturday Sundays I get on when i can

Preferred language is English

Why should we choose you? I'm on everyday helping out everyone during my time zone as no staff currently play when I'm online. I've played runescape since 2005 and played rsps's since 2012 maybe even before. I know my stuff and I've learnt this server quickly. Hoping to join the team now as we get ready for the future of the server with the new advertisement and such. I would also like to host events for the Europeans players too as we miss a lot of the event hosted by others.

Just a little extra about myself, I'm Max and i work from home all day then have a second job where i go and empty lorries/wagons and other transports. I'm sure you've all met me and it's been a pleasure to spend the last few months so far on the server and can't wait to see where the server goes

Thankyou for taking your time reading this and look forward to hearing from you guys in the future.

Hey Etherealians,

- Name and in-game username: Matt x Aterian

- Position applying for: Server Support or Event Host

- Timezone: EDT/EST (GMT-4)

- Days and times where you are available: I'm pretty much on all day everyday at the moment, so i'm very flexible about when i'm on or can be online.

- Preferred language: English

- Why we should choose you: 
Firstly, i'm a pretty friendly guy who loves to joke around and make people laugh, but most importantly i enjoy helping people and treating everyone fairly. Whether it's Support or Event Host i feel i could bring a good mix to the table and bring the community together to do some fun stuff or help out when needed. I want to see this server successful and this is one of the few RSPS's i actually really enjoy playing and growing on especially with how great the community is.

I've been around RuneScape for quite some time and feel with my current knowledge and the current guides some of our great members have released along with my previous 5 year Mod/Helper experience i would be able to help people accurately and in a timely manner as a Support Role. For Events i would take a list of feedback from players to see what everyone enjoys doing and build around that. I would of course mix it up a bit and try to bring something new and refreshing to events as well as i feel bringing the community together along with the great Staff Team and active Owners/Developers is KEY to a successful Rsps.

I've been Head Player Mod on a server before i joined this one for the past 5 years but i'd like to take on a Support or Event Role first as there's always room for me to improve and grow my knowledge on Ethereal to get to that point.

I appreciate anyone who took the time to read this and thanks for considering me!

Hey Etherealians,

Xamphur's Laboratory

Xamphur's Laboratory can be accessed via the teleport interface Dungeons -> Xamphur's Lab. Upon entering, you'll see that some of his experiments have escaped - the Phantom Hands over here are a Level 81 Slayer monster that attacks with magical melee and has a small chance to hit through Prayer. These can be assigned via the new Slayer task "Xamphur's Experiments". These have a low chance of dropping the coveted Osmumten's fang, with the effect that each attack will roll the accuracy check twice before dealing damage! Its stats however are slightly nerfed from the OSRS version to compensate for its ease of obtaining it.





Deeper into the dungeon you'll see a gate that gives you the option to fight the new boss, Xamphur once you have a Xamphur's Experiments task. 



Xamphur also has invocations associated with it, both increasing the difficulty of the fight and rewards!



The invocations are as follows:

Divine intervention - Xamphur will gain access to protection prayers as well as periodically swap them throughout the fight.
Don't Give Me a Hand - Xamphur's falling hand attack will deal significantly more damage.
Keep On Running - Xamphur will no longer give a heads up before he uses his falling hand attack.
Deadly Prayers - Your prayer will be drained by 20% of damage taken.
Overloaded - Xamphur's potion spawns will have 3 times as many hitpoints as normal.
Learning New Tricks - Xamphur's normal attacks will deal either magic or ranged damage.
Watch Out - Xamphur's normal attacks will cause a hand to fall from the ceiling.

Each invocation will increase your fight level from 0 to up to 100 - this will scale both the boss's hitpoints, max hit, and drops! The formulas are as follows:

Boss HP: 500 * (1 + (0.01 * fight level))
Boss max hit: 25 * (1 + (0.01 * fight level))

Possible drops:

Osmumten's fang (i) recipe - Obtained when the loot tier is at least medium. Imbues the osmumten's fang to make it more thematic to Xamphur, and increases its stats.



Xamphur's research (perk) - Obtained when the loot tier is at least medium.



Phantom robes - Mid tier robes that aim to be between Ahrim's and Ancestral in terms of offensive stats but doesn't require as much defence.



Lightbearer (i) - Upgrades the stats of the Lightbearer. Requires a Phantom jewel, which can only be obtained when the loot tier is at least high.



Phantom hand pet - Increases the chance at an extra roll at the Brimstone key drop table by 10% per level.

Golden Ticket Event Updates

The golden ticket event has been updated to add PvM events and a new shop! PvM events can potentially occur - asking players to kill a specific monster for a chance at a golden ticket. A shop has also been added west of home bank - speak to Agmundi to view her shop!





The shop includes bonds, mystery caches, and some new items - notably two new perks:





As well as a new dye - the Golden dye! This dye can be used on certain weapons to give it a gold trim!

In other news:
- The great olm's max damage has been reduced to 20.
- A trimmed music cape and quest cape has been added to Rasolo's weekly task shop for 100 weekly task points.
- The "view shop" button in the weekly task interface should now work as intended.
- Added an Alchemical Hydra teleport to the bosses section of the teleport interface.
- Doubled the chance to receive a dark totem from catacombs or donator dungeon monsters.
- The gauntlet boss should now always start with the ranged pray form.
- Cleaning herbs has been reverted back to manual.
- Fixed a bug where you wouldn't be allowed to reset a trap if you had the maximum amount of traps laid out.
- Fixed an issue where juniper logs would give a noted ID of lovakenj ore if you are a donator.
- Added a new role - Event Host - which event hosts can spawn tournaments, events, and masses!

Hey!
My name is Aaron, but some of you may know me by my old username Pot. I would like to apply for the upcoming Event Host position, and I'll explain why below.

- Name / in-game username: Aaron / Lid / Pot (old username)

- Position applying for: Event Host

- Time zone: Mountain Time

- Days and times available: I work a rotating 4 on 4 off schedule, so it changes all the time. I have lots of time on my days off, and I am still able to hop on in the evening on my days on.

- Language: English (native) and some Spanish.

- Why you should choose me: 
I am a friendly, outgoing person who wants to help this server thrive. I have played RS for over 15 years so I have a lot of game knowledge, and I am a very good PVMer (1 of the 8 on the server to complete the Inferno so far). I believe that with my experience and my personality, I could host tons of fun events for the community and come up with some good ideas to spice them up. 

I would take feedback from the community about what everyone wants to see, host surprise events, quick events, and host as often as I am allowed to. I strongly believe this server will benefit greatly from an active team, and I would love to contribute to building a better future here. 

I have been a Player Mod on a couple of servers in the past, and although I enjoy that position, I don't have enough experience to take that role on here. I think this would be a great way to get to know more about both the server and the community, and to make everyone's time here a little more enjoyable.
Thank you for your consideration!

Aaron

Hey Etherealians,

There was certainly a large delay in bringing this update as everytime I felt like I finished something there was something else that ended up being needed to add, haha... I also deeply apologize for the issues regarding donating at the moment and I can assure that we are working hard to resolve these current issues. Now, without further ado, here's the update post!

Rasolo's Weekly Tasks

Rasolo now has a bunch of weekly tasks to give! You can ask these weeklies either by using the command ::weeklies or by talking to Rasolo and selecting the corresponding option. Weekly tasks are given differently for each player - there is no rush for a player to complete weekly tasks as they are given to each player on their own weekly basis, starting on the first login when this update is released. 



Rasolo's task board allows players to select up to 5 tasks per week to complete - remember that you can only finish 5 tasks per week, and once you choose the tasks you cannot deselect them so only choose tasks you wish to finish for maximum points!

Rasolo's weekly task shop has a few new goodies:













Cup o' overload: Can store an infinite amount of overload doses, but will need to be filled with overload potions. Comes with 100 overload doses to start!

Spring Event

Here comes Ethereal's next seasonal event - the Spring event! This will combine elements of OSRS's easter event and RS3's spring events together to create something fun to do!



The Freaky Forester has arrived in home island and needs your help! Talk to him to enter his forest enclosure and help him eliminate the engorged rabbits that have been eating his pheasants! 



Kill these for some guaranteed carrot tokens, which can be used to buy things in the Freaky Forester's shop, or you can also get some bunny ears as a rare drop! Killing these engorged rabbits also will eventually cause an even larger rabbit to spawn in the southern part - the evil engorged rabbit. Take it down for some large token rewards and some other uniques!



The Freaky Forester shop also includes some new items!



Evil bunny ears - a cosmetic item that can be purchased in the token shop or as a rare drop from the evil engorged rabbit.



Eggshell outfit - sometimes I question the designs that are in the game. Obtained from the token shop.



Spring amulet - a new amulet that provides tribrid stats made to bridge the gap between the amulet of fury and zenyte jewelry! 



Spring cape - a new cape that provides defensive-focused stats as well as a passive effect that gives the wielder a 10% chance to heal for half of the damage inflicted.



Easter scythe - a new scythe that provides worse stats than the scythe of vitur but retains its effect and does not require charges! Created by the Easter scythe recipe in the carrot token shop.





Pet evil rabbit - a pet that grants 3% bonus experience (max level 1). Obtained via a rare drop from the evil engorged rabbit.



This event will last until the next main event, so take advantage of this! Voting will also grant 25 carrot tokens as an extra reward!

Golden Ticket Event

A new event has been added, the Golden Ticket event! This event will occur every 6 hours or if spawned by an admin, will usually include an extra reward!

This event will announce a particular object (mining a mithril rock, woodcutting a redwood tree, fishing a monkfish, pickpocketing a hero, etc.) and give a small chance for a random player doing the particular action to win a Golden ticket. These golden tickets will be able to be exchanged in the near future for rewards, or exchanged to an admin during spawned events to receive their prize! This event will also be updated in the near future to include NPC kills as well.
