7/17/2023: K'ril Tsutsaroth (elite), Kourend achievement diary, more!
#1
Hey Etherealians,

Big content update out today for yall, with a whole new boss and achievement diary to tackle! Let's get onto the details, shall we?

K'ril Tsutsaroth (Elite)

The first of the updates is the long awaited magic-oriented elite GWD boss, K'ril Tsutsaroth (Elite).

 
Within the depths of the Zamorak zoo lies the elite version of the fabled Zamorak general, boasting powerful magic attacks that utilize all the strengths of Ancient magicks that reigned prevalent during the God Wars. Tackle different kinds of mechanics using your knowledge of ancients as well to take down this formidable foe!

You can access this boss like the other GWD elite bosses, right outside the chamber and selecting the instance option. Note that this requires 150 K'ril Tsutsaroth KC to be allowed to access this boss!

Defeating this elite boss grants 3 rolls on its drop table, which include a few new unique items!

Virtus recipe cache - Contains a recipe for the new BiS magic armour, Virtus armour. It grants slightly better stats than Ancestral robes, empowering magic even further!

Fractured staff of Zamorak - A new ancient magick-oriented staff that boasts extremely powerful stats as well as some passive effects: it increases magic accuracy and damage by 25% when casting ancient magic spells, triples the stat-lowering effect from shadow spells, triples the smoke spell poison damage, increases blood spell healing by 25%, and acts as an infinite source of blood runes!

Kourend & Kebos Diary and Achievement Interface Rework

The Kourend & Kebos diary has been added! This provides some extra content to do in the usually-forgotten area of Zeah and provides some neat rewards with it! To coincide with this update, the achievement interface has been reworked! You can now access the achievement interface under the Journal tab and by clicking Achievements. Note that the "Achievements completed" section will be reworked soon to a different tab!

Now onto the rewards for completing the Great Kourend & Kebos Diary:

Each tier will grant a Rada's blessing of that tier, giving some nice Prayer stats and some convenient teleports to Mount Karuulm and the Kourend woodland.

Completing all easy achievements will make it so you will gain 20% bonus thieving experience when thieving from stalls in the Great Kourend plaza.
Completing all medium achievements will make it so you have a 10% chance to mine two dense essence blocks at once, stacking with the celestial ring.
Completing all hard achievements will grant you access to Resurrect spells in the Arceuus spellbook and make it so boots of stone are no longer required at Mount Karuulm.
Completing all elite achievements will give you a 20% boost to Farming experience within the Farming guild.

Certain achievements will grant levels to a new perk, Catacombs slayer, which boosts damage and accuracy within the Catacombs of Kourend by 5% per perk level.

Certain achievements will grant pieces to the Farmer's outfit, granting boosted experience to Farming when pieces of the set are worn.
Completing the entire diary will grant you a recipe to create the Slayer's blessing (rada), which combines both slayer blessing effects into one as well as grants it some extra stats!

Resurrect Spells

Resurrect spells are now accessible in the Arceuus spellbook after completing the hard tier of the Kourend & Kebos diary! These summon temporary thralls to aid you in battle, and they ignore defence and accuracy checks - meaning they will hit very frequently! Utilize these familiars to your advantage to help tackle some tough bosses or speed up kills in Slayer!
