9/18/2024: Araxxor boss release, music changes! - Ene - 09-18-2024

Hey Etherealians,
Today marks the release day of our new Slayer boss: Araxxor! You'll see that most of its mechanics have been translated from vanilla, with a few additions with the invocations you can add to it!

Araxxor

Araxxor
 can be located at the Morytania spider dungeon under the dungeons teleport. Araxxor and his spiderlings all require a Slayer level of 92 to damage, so make sure you have that Slayer requirement!

Araxxor's fight consists of several phases where eggs will hatch in a consecutive order, with the first egg determining its special attack for the rest of the fight - however there's some invocations that may modify this! Bring a nice crush weapon and your Slayer helmet to do some decent damage against this pest.

Notable rewards include:

Araxyte fang - Can be attached to an amulet of torture to create an Amulet of rancour, boosting its offensive stats. Can be obtained at all invocation levels.

Noxious halberd - Assembled by combining a noxious point, pommel, and blade. You'll always receive these parts in order, as long as the previous piece is in your inventory or bank. Obtained at all invocation levels.

Amulet of rancour (s) - Can be obtained by its recipe equivalent, boosting the offensive stats even more and retaining the blood amulet of torture passive effect since it requires one. Obtained only at max invocation level.

Noxious pickaxe - a new BIS pickaxe that provides some potent offensive stats as well as has a mining power stronger than a crystal pickaxe. Also has a passive effect that has a 5% chance of inflicting some venomous damage against enemies that are normally immune to venom. Obtained only at a max invocation level.

Spider sense (perk)

Nid and Rax pets - Nid is the base pet, which can metamorphize into Rax when a coagulated venom is used on it, which can be obtained once when you clear Araxxor with a max invocation level for the first time. A pet perk will be added in a near future update along with Araxxor's collection log rewards.

Aranea boots - A new pair of boots granting adequate offensive stats whilst requiring only 1 defence to equip.

Araxyte venom sack - can be combined with an Anti-venom+ to create an Extended anti-venom+, requiring 1 sack per dose.
Araxyte head - Combine with a Slayer helmet of any kind to create an Araxyte slayer helmet, modifying its looks.
Jar of venom - Show it off in your house in an achievement gallery!

Death Charge

The Death charge Arceuus spell has been added, granting a 60 second period where your next NPC kill will recharge 15% of your special attack energy.

Music Update

Added some missing music such as the TOB lobby song, and rewrote the music player to handle more than one song per region, so the home area should have a small playlist of songs instead of just Far Away.

Important Serenity Change

To keep balance in mind in both the economy and PvP situations, Serenity will now no longer work in the Wilderness.

117 HD Changes

Backported some of the newer features from 117HD, such as the seasonal theme that should be able to change the fog and lighting of the overworld. Try the Autumn theme!
