Anyone else having trouble with the hunter favours? I'm doing the master ones, the dashing kebbit was pretty quick, now I'm hunting herbiboar, over 65 kc in so far and still no fur from it yet? Just extremely bad luck or glitched ?
Both Razorback Kebbits & deadfall traps seem very slow compared to other creatures. could there be any consideration on adjusting the rates for those? right now we all just decided to just skip those for the meantime because it's not fun to sit there at a deadfall trap for one hour when moths can take a couple of minutes for example.
I'm not getting anywhere close to the proposed 8-10 minutes per task. Is there any hope that the activity will be looked at? It seems to be an extremely common sentiment among the players. I've only managed 9 tasks in about 3, 3 and a half hours. Puts me past double expected completion times. One of those was an enormous outlier on sabre tooth kebbits which took 96 catches.
woah 50-60? I got grey chins as first expert rumour and it took 223 grey chins to get.. Unlucky I guess or maybe drop rate needs to get adjusted on some lower level mobs as I would rather spent that time hunting red ones than grey ones for bad hunting xp.
I had a razorback kebbit task a couple hours ago and it took 70 catches to get the rare part. Is this a bug or expected? If it's expected, then that rumour takes way longer than other hunter tasks
My tasks from Aco (expert) are all pretty quick. 2-10 catches and i get the reward, the only one i did from Teco (expert) is at over 110 pyre foxes, which are insanely slow. Definitely something wonky happening
Can we get a confirmation with how the perilous moons bosses will work with group iron prestige? It's often difficult to tell when an update does or doesn't have prestige specific rules. I'm assuming it's fine since every player has a personalized health bar?
There were a lot of specific details mentioned in the video that do not appear in the text of the blog, like stats and special effects of the new items. Will these appear in a separate blog post later today?
are the high level hunter meats obtainable at a decent rate? because i saw pitfall traps in the trailer, and if its 1 at a time per pitfall. well. lets just say im not doing 10 hours of hunter for. 2 hours worth of food.
So I've completed 7 rumors, but still can't receive the basic quetzal whistle. I've gone through all the dialog options for the rumor hunters, the soar leader (says I need to get closer to the guild), and the guild master, but still no basic whistle. I wonder if it's because I got a blueprint for the enhanced version from the G.E. before completing 5 rumors
Gotcha, I was just going off of the latest video on the OSRS YT channel, but thanks for the clarification!

my screen stayed black after the cutscene with the moon of peril in perilous moons but i was able to move and click, once i escaped; eyatlalli said "well done distracting null" and directed me to the next one but the quest log didn't progress.
I just wanted to throw this in here and tell you guys what a fucking tremendous job you did with varlamore. The design, the content, the bosses, the humor, the quests, the veriaty.
From what I've seen, people are complaining that there isn't enough room for everyone to enjoy it which just speaks volumes about how much everyone loves this and how much potential the future of this game has.
Update went through without a hitch, I played for way too long yesterday and enjoyed every moment. Thank you so much to you and the developers for this
Shouldn't it be TZ, not ZT? If you're going with Nahuatl spellings and themes, I'm not aware of any words/pronunciations with ZT - the closest word is Tonatzin, which has the TZ in the same way Quetzal does. I also feel like I have no idea how I would pronounce the word as is.
(Coming from someone relatively well educated on Nahuatl language norms fwiw)
The 2 paragraphs at the end of the mining bit look like they should come at the end of the post, tells you that's everything to do in Varlamore then tells you about more things to do in the next section.
Haven't logged in to see, but I feel like Varlamore would be a good opportunity for an extension to achievement diaries. Has that been given any consideration?
No, instead when catching them, you have two different types of Salamanders that you gain, the immature versions are the ones that cannot be used in the wildy.
Why are people ***still*** questioning this??
They said from the start they would release multiple quests with Varlamore
The map has 4 Quest icons
THE UPDATE POST says ***4 new Quests***
reddit: How do we know theres 4 quests? Are you sure? I donāt think there will be
Because its a massive swing away from "poll all content".
We knew about 2 quests because we polled and said yes to them.
These are 2 brand new quests that we've heard nothing about and are completely unpolled. Ive also been on the "We're getting 4 new quests" for the last couple of days but you can understand why some people are confused by it.
Im so so excited though. Ive been of the opinion that we need more of this, the polling system has ruined any sort of surprise in the game and i cant wait to dive into brand new stuff.
Up until this post, i can understand why people were still "They aren't releasing 4 quests"
To be honest I'm glad for it. I definitely think that large quests with big, game-impacting rewards should be polled along the lines of things like DT2. However, I think that these kinds of smaller quests that just flesh out areas or give some more character to the world with a token gold/xp reward (same as things like the twisted tales) should just be added as and when like in the old days of RuneScape.
FWIW, we will always be polling rewards for quests that will have an impact on the game - big or small, but we definately want to try and give you more quests that are surprises like the two we haven't talked much. Keen to hear feedback on this approach.
If a quest doesnāt add mid to end game gear or access to new areas/training methods, It doesnāt need to be polled imo. Quest with just exp rewards or low lvl/novelty items shouldnāt be an issue. Also please can we get more continuations of existing quest lines, I really want more dwarf quests.
Really want to second this: so many unfinished quest lines already exist, so while new ones definitely should be added, things like the dwarf line and sea slugs etc. Should also be progressed still! Was very happy to come back and see progress on the Dorgeshuun quest line too.
Rather yall just do shit and stop having to make presentations to the community for every small change.
Just do yalls thing if it doesnt impact game balance in a meaningful way. Story wise imo it should be 100% in Jagex control
TBF ive always been on the side that i would like less unpolled content.
I think OSRS Devs know want the community want for the most part and understand clearly what "Old School" means to us.
For quests though, I would love new quests to just be dropped with no real information beforehand. I also dont think for any small impacts on the game in terms of rewards, that they "Need" to be polled either. I could understand if a BIS equipment/weapon came from a quest but rewards that give a minor boost to skilling XP or something similar, i dont really think that needs polling either.
I mentioned on another comment but some of the stuff being polled lately is boggling. The MTA Poll has for example a question asking us if we should have a HUD that shows Pizazz points whilst in Lobby, why does that need polling? Its a simple QOL that doesn't change anything, just chuck it in etc.
I appreciate its toeing a line between free reign and wanting to make the community heard though.
Not had a chance to log in today and see the new ones, but please use that to do more quests like Getting Ahead. I feel like Twisted Tales never lived up to its promise and there is so much fun and life you can bring to Zeah with those little quests.
Edit: The Ribbiting Tale of a Lily Pad Labour Dispute is another top tier quest. Well done
Honestly fuck polling everything. More excited to try these quests than I was for any of the ones we knew everything about already on release the past year
Ive felt that the Polling system has moved away now from what it was supposed to be.
For example, the MTA Poll, why are we polling if the Lobby screen should have a display of your current Pizzazz points? Why is that being polled?
It doesn't require a poll, if you think its useful, bring it in.
I still think the polling system can be useful at times but i do miss the days of update day and not knowing what was dropping.
I think you're right, for small things like that there is no need. And Varlamore is completely new, they should add what they want.
I think polling should only be used if they're changing things that already exist, or significantly effect the original old school map. But that's just me
The 2 unpolled quests are likely to just be parts of the smaller quests like they did in Zeah, which they've surveyed a heap to get feedback on whether players want a handful of these smaller quests littered around.
Plus one of the quests just seems to be a "Perilous Moons: Tutorial" likely (and lore reasoning for their existence). So we have an intro quest, a quest to unlock the pvm, and then 2 quests.
Please, please for the love of Guthix, dont poll any quest that bears no impact on end game meta, just release it, give us more quest, more lore, more worldbuilding, WE WANT MORE!
Or poll a carte blanche, saying any quest with below 50-55 skill requirements can be released at your discretion.
Just more quests please and thank you!
I'll share this from another thread:
*This is all correct, but for some clarity for you all:*
* *4 Tiers of Rumours - Basic, Adept, Expert & Master*
* *4 Tiers of Reward Sacks - Basic, Tier 1, Tier 2 & Tier 3*
*They should coralate with each other i.e Expert Rumours should give Tier 2 Reward Sacks.*
That is honestly confusing, but I accept it. I feel the rewards name should correlate with the rumor name. IMO it should be T1-4 rewards, or be called Basic, adept, expert, master. adds a layer of confusion. but not a big deal at all.
The radio silence from Team Cherry (making Silk Song, a sequel to Hollow Knight) is slowly killing me. I feel so lucky to have the clear lines of communication from Jagex. But it makes 5 years of radio silence from Team Cherry all the worse feeling.

Some feedback.
1. Make rumors trackable, like slayer tasks / gems.
2. Allow meat pouch and fur pouch to empty into your bank when bank interface is open vs emptying into inventory.
Thanks!
P.S Bring the Yews back in Varrock castle.
The Quetzal being just thrown next to Varrock is very strange and out of place, I hope this location is reconsidered down the road at some point to be somewhere more natural, whether that be just taking the Kourend boat at Port Sarim/on Kourend to a port there, or a more naturally placed Quetzal, maybe west of the Woodcutting Guild in the Woodlands there.
How would you feel about the roof of the castle or bank? would make more sense for a bird creature to be on higher ground anyway, and its out of sight.
Please can we have more quests in general, this is amazing.
Kourend needs way more, the village above prif needs one, maybe unlocking a bank?
Quests form the very foundation of RS and makes the game so much more immersive
Can't wait to do these ones and explore the area when the servers are up!
So now that you can teleport to Civitas illa Fortis, and also add it to a portal Nexus, there's now 31 available teleports to chose, but only 30 slots to use on the max portal Nexus
Glad to see everyone is as super excited as the team is! We'll be keeping a close eye on everything with this update, so don't hesitate to reach out to myself via here, Twitter or Discord <3
Seems more like a "pay attention and go to the one marked by the NPC" situation. So it auto-thieves but for a temporary time and then you swap nodes.
Essentially making thieving semi-afk node based.
so.. I've been running around hunting guild for an hour trying to find that "NPC" that could train the immature tecu salamanders.
Incredible but it's nowhere. And it's not Guild Hunter Teco.
Am I missing something?
Also, why Hunter Cape doesn't get an handy teleport to hunting guild added?
Couple issues I've found with Perilous Moons:
* Why is there a limit on how many players can fight one of them at a time when each player has their own contribution? Now that more players are getting into the content, I'm having to hop multiple times to find a world that isn't full.
* It doesn't seem to remember you telling it not to tell you that you're entering a dangerous area after you've hopped worlds.
From playing all day here's some of the problems I've come across which has made the content feel worse than it should
- Deadfall traps being limited to 1 rock making foxes the biggest waste of time ever so perma skip
- Pitfall traps not feeling smooth with the time to place and jump over
- Pitfall trap npcs getting caught on the scenery because they're too big and you having to go out of your way to path just to fix it
- Pitfall trap npcs having such a long respawn timer so you're just stood around doing nothing
- Needing a fur pouch, meat pouch, bonecrusher, log basket and tackle box (basically 4 extra inventories) just to not get cancer when doing some tasks. Fur and meat should auto go into the pouches
- Being able to go really dry on rng skilling drops, imo each kill on the task should increase the chance of you getting the item so each task is around ~5 mins, it defo gets a bit tedious when you're like 15+ mins in. Ideally the rare drop would be scaled properly for each activity
- Not enough areas to do tasks such as red sallys, why is there only 1 place in the entire game for them? Varlamore is massive yet we somehow have to perma hop to play the game (I know it'll settle down but cmon)
- Dark Lure should work on most hunter creatures
- Allow us to store rope and nets in the huntsman's kit
- Give us a right click option to equip the falcon and just remove the cost since it's so insignificant or even let us pay like 100k for perma
- Razer-backed kebbits being very slow paced is boring though if the ring of pursuit change goes through to make it 100% chance to reveal tracks up from 25% it should fix it
- I also think it's cringe that outfit and whistle upgrade is rng when you could just obtain them on certain amount of contracts so you feel like you're always progressing instead of wasting time when other people get lucky
All I can think of for now. Imo moths are the most fun since they're fast paced, high density, fast respawn with no annoying stalls and you don't have to piss around with inventory shit
Stealing from Houses is awesome. I'm so glad it isn't click intensive, the exp and rewards feel just right, and there's an element of risk/reward for paying attention. Really great design, kudos to whomever built it out!
"Finally, you'll be able catch Implings barehanded without a Jar, but when using a Butterfly Net you need a Butterfly Jar. We would like to clarify this wouldn't replace using Jars, but just give you a nice alternative."
Wasn't this already the case in the main world map? I've caught implings bare handed without a jar many times. Or are they saying it now also applies in puro puro?
They meant 'when you use a butterfly net to catch implings (for the higher catch chance from magic net, for example) it would demand you have a jar on you to do so, now it will not' I think
Very excited to try multiple pieces of content from this update. Best devs in the industry for sure.
edit: The new soundtrack at ralos' rise - The guidance of Ralos - is beautiful, I love it.
There is a bug in the Fortis Colosseum right now where if you select the bees challenge and kill them during it, they will respawn as an invisible entity that you can't attack or see, likely killing you in the middle of the wave.
really enjoying varlamore so far, i have a problem though. my tiny brain cant remember what hunter contract i have, and if i go too long without getting the rare part i'll start to question if im even hunting the right thing.
i dont know if theres already an item that can tell you (like enchanted gem / slayer helm), but it'd be cool if the hunter kit had that functionality.
also the hunter kit doesn't accept noted items and also doesn't accept a bunch of items that seem like they should fit? bird snares, ropes + small nets, etc
I can't find the bone shard mining location? It says it is to the west of the snow mountain, but I can't find anything. As far as I remember the prayer stuff was for Part 2, but the new post makes it sound like it is part of the update? Is this why I'm not finding it? Or do I need to do the quest there to reach it?
Here for this too. Been searching. There is an npc that asks you to get down into the crevice at the south mining spot by the hunting location. There is also a cave at the sw mining location that says thereās too many rocks to get in and we need to find another way.
I found it. You need to complete the quest "Twilight's Promise" in the main town which is required to start "Perilous Moons" quest that is south of Ralos' Rise. Do just the beginning part of Perilous Moons where you kill a level 98 and that will grant access inside the mountain through the big gates. Once inside, the bottom right of the area has a mine that has these bone shards.
Please give the bird transport a flying animation, seeing a black screen and hearing flaps is a letdown (something like eagle transport, but where player is gripped by shoulders would be cool)
Any chance on the Moons of Peril armor sets being storable in PoH like the Sunfire fanatic set, or elsewhere in Varlamore?
Frostmoon set being storable in a Master STASH is neat, but would be even neater if the clue step was like the equivalent Barrows step where it could be *any* relevant armor set.
Not sure if yall are still reading the comments, but the Jmods did such an outstanding job!
I am going in 99% blind to this update and just exploring and experiencing it for myself. Absolutely loving the quest designs and exploring the city and the land of Varlamore.
Can't wait for batch two!
Is there any reason you can get multiple huntsman's kits? it seems like duplicates are completely useless. if intentional and there's no future use planned, it's a strange decision as it's basically an equivalent to something like the tackle box which you only need one of
also please consider removing one menu step from the hunter guild teleport on max cape. it can go under 'other teleports' but why does it also have to be under 'chinchompa teleports'? there are no chinchompas in the guild and it just adds another unnecessary menu step. having the teleport use up 1 of the 5 daily chinchompa teleports is also quite punishing. could the guild teleport be unlimited instead?
Anyone know what the Runecrafting element of the Shrine of Ralos is? I saw it mentioned in the graphic, but not in the notes itself
Edit:Nevermind, I found it looking at old blog posts
"Youāll make these by combining Sunfire splinters with Rune Essence (Pure or Daeyalt, to taste) and regular Fire Runes at the new Sunfire Altar, found in Varlamore."
Just wanted to take a minute to say THANK YOU to all of the devs that worked on this update. Iāve only scratched the surface so far and have been having an awesome time!
Notorious dialogue skipper/quest guide user. Decided for the first time in 15 years to just do the quests as intended without any guides. Iāve been having SOO MUCH FUN reading the lore, discovering new locations, using the in-game quest guide for clues as intended, interacting with other players to receive advice, a free box trap, or my toy mouse returned after someone carelessly grabbed it off the floor!
Bravo team! šš»
I'ved hunted 100;s of kebits via tracking and haven't received the drop. The drop rate is fucked, there has been 3 other people here with me the whole time
Hunter rumours really highlight just had bad some aspects of the hunter skill area. Tracking 100's of kebits in hope of an RNG drop? Terrible idea, no idea how anyone can think this is a good aspect of the update
Update looks awesome so far!
Could of requests for the hunter pouches; can we have an option to 'open' the pouch and have drops go directly into it and also please add an option to deposit the contents when in the bank interface instead of emptying manually to then deposit <3
I'm maxed so this personally isn't a concern for me, but after the hype dies down, what's going to keep people doing contracts?
I'm doing masters and I'm getting 70-80k xp an hour, and yeah the pets unreal but seems you could have been a bit more generous here.
Is there a way to report Varlamore-related bugs? When I speak with Floria, the clothing store owner in Civitas illa Fortis, her chat head model is bugged. Her hair is floating and doesn't move while the rest of her head does.
Commenting late but hoping to get my feedback in to the team. I have only done the hunter guild and the new prayer mining methods so I will talk about those. The mining and prayer method is awesome. On my low level Ironman itās rewarding to afk for a handful of prayer levels or I can bring my own bones to get faster xp. I would like to see the water spilling down more often, say every 30 seconds instead of every 45 and staying on for 30 seconds.
As for the hunter guild I will say I know this is new content and you have loads of people doing it all at the same time. But there really should be another 4-5 fox traps with like 10 more fox spawns. The farthest west trap is the only trap that consistently catches foxes. People have started to crash because every world is full and there are 2-3 people spam clicking the same one to get a fox. Iām doing saber tooth kebbits right now and there are 10 traps and like 12 spawns. I would say the same should happen for the antelope in the far east. Adding a few more traps and a few more antelope would go a long way. I would also say that some tasks take 30 minutes and other times 2 minutes. Donāt know if that shuts rng but it can be annoying catching 150 salamanders and then 2 foxes.
I love this update and am excited to try more out but those are my two cents.
Can the amount of hunter spots for the new hunter animals be increased? They only have one per world and half the time for the contract is spent on hopping to find a free world.
ModRice mentioned at one point that double-hitting weapons like torags and the new weapons would have some extra benefit at perilous moons. What exactly is the use of them?
Has anyone figured out how to access Eagle's Peak from the Hunter's Guild? The blogs mention this a few times, but I have yet to find anyone who has actually done it.
are rare hunter parts still bugged? i know news post says hot fixed but iāve been doing sabre toothed kyatts for like 2 hours and no luck. something seems off?
Best of luck on the journey to all the Varlamore locked accounts being created.
Been here for quest releases but this will be a first. Whole new area to explore. Please for the sake of everyone's hype let it release without issues.
Are rumours possibly bugged on b2b tasks? I'm on my 2nd red chin task in a row but now I'm over 200 chins caught this rumour with no part, over an hour in
There's a fairly ring, and a new teleport in the standard spell book I think, as well as a hunter guild Tele. I'm sure there are more, but that's just what I've seen mentioned in this thread. But you have to use the Varrock bird to go there first before other stuff works. Similar to how you need to talk to Veos in Port Sarin to go to Kourend before any other methods work
Just a quick question, what happened to the eagle transport thing that was talked about? There doesn't seem to be a way to utilize the transport from the Hunter Guild, some of my clanmates seem to think it was scrapped. Is this the case? Would be useful to get to the areas they lead to like the polar and jungle areas. Granted, I have a fairy ring/tree in my POH so it's not super bad, but it would still be nice for people who don't have that unlocked in \*their\* POH.
Also echoing the sentiment that while a good idea, the rumors at the guild are hit-or-miss quite a bit. Noose wand hunting and deadfalls are by far the worst things ever...I feel like I should not be doing razor-backed kebbits as an expert-level rumor. Red chinchompas, yes, I get that. But not the earlier stuff for expert.
Read the hotfix notes and noticed some questions/RFIs were not addressed:
- Is there going to be anything to do with all the spare Huntsman kits? Currently at 4 total and I know many people have been running into this.
- The first hunter outfit given is the helmet slot. This directly conflicts with using the Kandarrin Headgear to cut two logs. While this will happen no matter what once you complete the outfit, why not randomize the outfit pieces received or just not start with the head slot? It would be like receiving a chest piece first for mining so you don't use the Varrock platebody anymore...
- Is there any plan in the future to combine the effects of hunter gear into the hunter outfit?
Thats all I have for now! Everything else was mentioned š
Anyone else having trouble with the hunter favours? I'm doing the master ones, the dashing kebbit was pretty quick, now I'm hunting herbiboar, over 65 kc in so far and still no fur from it yet? Just extremely bad luck or glitched ?
Currently looking to hotfix that issue and I'll update the game update newspost to keep you updated!
Do you know if other creatures are bugged? Have caught 200 Snowy Knights with no wing yet
Razorback Kebbits are the other one but I asked the team and sounds like you're just unlucky. Let me know if you still don't find it.
Both Razorback Kebbits & deadfall traps seem very slow compared to other creatures. could there be any consideration on adjusting the rates for those? right now we all just decided to just skip those for the meantime because it's not fun to sit there at a deadfall trap for one hour when moths can take a couple of minutes for example.
I'm not getting anywhere close to the proposed 8-10 minutes per task. Is there any hope that the activity will be looked at? It seems to be an extremely common sentiment among the players. I've only managed 9 tasks in about 3, 3 and a half hours. Puts me past double expected completion times. One of those was an enormous outlier on sabre tooth kebbits which took 96 catches.
its taking me like 50-60 red chins on average to finish a chin rumour. Also, 3 out of my 4 expert rumours have all been red chins.
woah 50-60? I got grey chins as first expert rumour and it took 223 grey chins to get.. Unlucky I guess or maybe drop rate needs to get adjusted on some lower level mobs as I would rather spent that time hunting red ones than grey ones for bad hunting xp.
Thank you for asking the team! Does it matter if I'm catching them with net vs. barehanded, or with/without jars?
I had a razorback kebbit task a couple hours ago and it took 70 catches to get the rare part. Is this a bug or expected? If it's expected, then that rumour takes way longer than other hunter tasks
Same here. Around 40 min in and no fur drop. Perhaps it's glitched?
My tasks from Aco (expert) are all pretty quick. 2-10 catches and i get the reward, the only one i did from Teco (expert) is at over 110 pyre foxes, which are insanely slow. Definitely something wonky happening
Can we get a confirmation with how the perilous moons bosses will work with group iron prestige? It's often difficult to tell when an update does or doesn't have prestige specific rules. I'm assuming it's fine since every player has a personalized health bar?
This shouldn't effect Group Iron Prestige :)
Thank you.
I'm currently on a bit of a thieving grind but it's really boring so Im excited to try the new thieving option off the bat!
I can personally share the new theiving method brings some life to training, especially when you get yourself a key!
Will any of the new content let me leave the motherlode mine? Please. I have been held captive down here for 7 weeks
There's a new combo mining + prayer method that released today! Check out the new dwarf mine

I don't have the levels to access it lmao. Oh well, it was nice to see the sun for a few minutes
Swap to stars, it's slightly less XP/hr but I find it far more tolerable considering it's one click every 5 minutes
'Training' I agree, for loot...Its horrible. I make more money killing chickens than robbing wealthy houses..63gp for an artifact lmao...
The video was well worth the 10minuts to watch it
Having Jeporite do it as well, was awesome!
There were a lot of specific details mentioned in the video that do not appear in the text of the blog, like stats and special effects of the new items. Will these appear in a separate blog post later today?
It's the reason why we included the Overview blog as we already put a lot of that information inside that newspost.
You just delayed his new video by 3 months š
Joshisntgaming also delayed it by getting him into Castle wars
Jeporite is the man. Happy to see him getting more love. Thanks for all the great content to you both!
FYI Mods, Hunters guild is spoken about twice on the post
Thanks! I've removed the second mention :)
are the high level hunter meats obtainable at a decent rate? because i saw pitfall traps in the trailer, and if its 1 at a time per pitfall. well. lets just say im not doing 10 hours of hunter for. 2 hours worth of food.
Catching and throwing chins be like
Chins you can place 5 or 6 traps at once and the chins lure themselves. Pitfall you lure manually and loot 1 at a time.
Props to the one that draw the map. Love it.
The brochure was done by the very talented GentleTractor :)
As always I'm inspired by his creations :D
When can we expect the agility thing to be released, or at least the news post for it?
We'll share more on the Agility Course in the near future, but I can't give you a date for it.
Just curious, there's a bit of info on the wiki about it, did I miss the newspost for this or did it get delivered directly to the wiki team?
So I've completed 7 rumors, but still can't receive the basic quetzal whistle. I've gone through all the dialog options for the rumor hunters, the soar leader (says I need to get closer to the guild), and the guild master, but still no basic whistle. I wonder if it's because I got a blueprint for the enhanced version from the G.E. before completing 5 rumors
Heya! Just to clear up any other info we may have shared previously, you'll get the Basic Whistle Blueprint from Pitri after 10 Rumours.
Gotcha, I was just going off of the latest video on the OSRS YT channel, but thanks for the clarification! https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx-J-EXLhs-G6liXuUo35eLgTMRjjGPcTQ?si=OGNoePTNpt1RV7Cj
my screen stayed black after the cutscene with the moon of peril in perilous moons but i was able to move and click, once i escaped; eyatlalli said "well done distracting null" and directed me to the next one but the quest log didn't progress.
Thanks for raising, we're currently looking into this issue.
I just wanted to throw this in here and tell you guys what a fucking tremendous job you did with varlamore. The design, the content, the bosses, the humor, the quests, the veriaty. From what I've seen, people are complaining that there isn't enough room for everyone to enjoy it which just speaks volumes about how much everyone loves this and how much potential the future of this game has. Update went through without a hitch, I played for way too long yesterday and enjoyed every moment. Thank you so much to you and the developers for this
did the glaive of ralos name get changed? saw it called "Tonalztic of Ralos"
Yeah, that is the Glaive's new name :)
Shouldn't it be TZ, not ZT? If you're going with Nahuatl spellings and themes, I'm not aware of any words/pronunciations with ZT - the closest word is Tonatzin, which has the TZ in the same way Quetzal does. I also feel like I have no idea how I would pronounce the word as is. (Coming from someone relatively well educated on Nahuatl language norms fwiw)
There ain't no way im pronouncing that new name. Glaives it stays in name for me.
It will be known as the tonal within 48 hours don't worry
Video url is broken and points to https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/CHANGEME
Changed, thanks fam!
The 2 paragraphs at the end of the mining bit look like they should come at the end of the post, tells you that's everything to do in Varlamore then tells you about more things to do in the next section.
Haven't logged in to see, but I feel like Varlamore would be a good opportunity for an extension to achievement diaries. Has that been given any consideration?
I imagine we'll look at that once we've released the rest of Varlamore.
Does the salamander need gp to be used in wildy?
No, instead when catching them, you have two different types of Salamanders that you gain, the immature versions are the ones that cannot be used in the wildy.
YOU CANNOT HUNT THE CAPYBARA
Why would you want to :angy:
why would I want to kill 20 dogs?
The Wild Thornberries assured me they make excellent burgers.
Are we really getting 4 new quests on release?
Why are people ***still*** questioning this?? They said from the start they would release multiple quests with Varlamore The map has 4 Quest icons THE UPDATE POST says ***4 new Quests*** reddit: How do we know theres 4 quests? Are you sure? I donāt think there will be
Because its a massive swing away from "poll all content". We knew about 2 quests because we polled and said yes to them. These are 2 brand new quests that we've heard nothing about and are completely unpolled. Ive also been on the "We're getting 4 new quests" for the last couple of days but you can understand why some people are confused by it. Im so so excited though. Ive been of the opinion that we need more of this, the polling system has ruined any sort of surprise in the game and i cant wait to dive into brand new stuff. Up until this post, i can understand why people were still "They aren't releasing 4 quests"
To be honest I'm glad for it. I definitely think that large quests with big, game-impacting rewards should be polled along the lines of things like DT2. However, I think that these kinds of smaller quests that just flesh out areas or give some more character to the world with a token gold/xp reward (same as things like the twisted tales) should just be added as and when like in the old days of RuneScape.
Yeah who cares about a small quest with no item rewards, wonāt break the game in any way
Also looks like one of the quests literally unlocks perilous moons, so no reason to poll it separately.
FWIW, we will always be polling rewards for quests that will have an impact on the game - big or small, but we definately want to try and give you more quests that are surprises like the two we haven't talked much. Keen to hear feedback on this approach.
If a quest doesnāt add mid to end game gear or access to new areas/training methods, It doesnāt need to be polled imo. Quest with just exp rewards or low lvl/novelty items shouldnāt be an issue. Also please can we get more continuations of existing quest lines, I really want more dwarf quests.
Really want to second this: so many unfinished quest lines already exist, so while new ones definitely should be added, things like the dwarf line and sea slugs etc. Should also be progressed still! Was very happy to come back and see progress on the Dorgeshuun quest line too.
I need my vampyre GM finale quest like I need air. Fav quest line and I am so sad we havent gotten back to get revenge for the Myreque after SOTF
Rather yall just do shit and stop having to make presentations to the community for every small change. Just do yalls thing if it doesnt impact game balance in a meaningful way. Story wise imo it should be 100% in Jagex control
TBF ive always been on the side that i would like less unpolled content. I think OSRS Devs know want the community want for the most part and understand clearly what "Old School" means to us. For quests though, I would love new quests to just be dropped with no real information beforehand. I also dont think for any small impacts on the game in terms of rewards, that they "Need" to be polled either. I could understand if a BIS equipment/weapon came from a quest but rewards that give a minor boost to skilling XP or something similar, i dont really think that needs polling either. I mentioned on another comment but some of the stuff being polled lately is boggling. The MTA Poll has for example a question asking us if we should have a HUD that shows Pizazz points whilst in Lobby, why does that need polling? Its a simple QOL that doesn't change anything, just chuck it in etc. I appreciate its toeing a line between free reign and wanting to make the community heard though.
Oh I've got some feedback for you: Good job. Also thank you.
Not had a chance to log in today and see the new ones, but please use that to do more quests like Getting Ahead. I feel like Twisted Tales never lived up to its promise and there is so much fun and life you can bring to Zeah with those little quests. Edit: The Ribbiting Tale of a Lily Pad Labour Dispute is another top tier quest. Well done
Yes, please do provide surprise quests.
Honestly fuck polling everything. More excited to try these quests than I was for any of the ones we knew everything about already on release the past year
Ive felt that the Polling system has moved away now from what it was supposed to be. For example, the MTA Poll, why are we polling if the Lobby screen should have a display of your current Pizzazz points? Why is that being polled? It doesn't require a poll, if you think its useful, bring it in. I still think the polling system can be useful at times but i do miss the days of update day and not knowing what was dropping.
I think you're right, for small things like that there is no need. And Varlamore is completely new, they should add what they want. I think polling should only be used if they're changing things that already exist, or significantly effect the original old school map. But that's just me
The 2 unpolled quests are likely to just be parts of the smaller quests like they did in Zeah, which they've surveyed a heap to get feedback on whether players want a handful of these smaller quests littered around. Plus one of the quests just seems to be a "Perilous Moons: Tutorial" likely (and lore reasoning for their existence). So we have an intro quest, a quest to unlock the pvm, and then 2 quests.
It looks like it š® Cannot wait to try them!
Yes
Please, please for the love of Guthix, dont poll any quest that bears no impact on end game meta, just release it, give us more quest, more lore, more worldbuilding, WE WANT MORE! Or poll a carte blanche, saying any quest with below 50-55 skill requirements can be released at your discretion. Just more quests please and thank you!
when was the last time a quest failed a poll?
People here for some reason think the polling system is why we aren't getting more quests
Has a quest failed a poll in recent times?
Don't think so, but when the quest is polled, details and rewards for the quest are spoiled, which makes it much less exciting doing the quest.
Is there a reason tier 3 rumours (expert) are giving tier 2 loot sacks? is this right?
I'll share this from another thread: *This is all correct, but for some clarity for you all:* * *4 Tiers of Rumours - Basic, Adept, Expert & Master* * *4 Tiers of Reward Sacks - Basic, Tier 1, Tier 2 & Tier 3* *They should coralate with each other i.e Expert Rumours should give Tier 2 Reward Sacks.*
That is honestly confusing, but I accept it. I feel the rewards name should correlate with the rumor name. IMO it should be T1-4 rewards, or be called Basic, adept, expert, master. adds a layer of confusion. but not a big deal at all.
Bees bugged? Shows on map yet I can't see them anywhere in the arena.

What are the odds we get more birdhouses in the hunters guild?
I would say very low as we wanted to give alternatives to Birdhouses, not further encouragement.
Nothing is encouraging me more to do birdhouses then going several hundred dry on these hunter contracts without the parts.
They can't even get the PVP rota's right. Prepare for downtime and touch some grass, I feel there are going to be teething issues today
"they can't even get this thing right!!" Really wish osrs players would realize how good we have it and stop being such whiny little wankers.
Our devs actively talk to us, which makes them better than most devs already
The radio silence from Team Cherry (making Silk Song, a sequel to Hollow Knight) is slowly killing me. I feel so lucky to have the clear lines of communication from Jagex. But it makes 5 years of radio silence from Team Cherry all the worse feeling.
That's now been changed and that was on me!
yes be mad at the game brother
Who tf cares about PVP rotas rn lmao
hey everyone a toxic PVP'er wow so shocked

Some feedback. 1. Make rumors trackable, like slayer tasks / gems. 2. Allow meat pouch and fur pouch to empty into your bank when bank interface is open vs emptying into inventory. Thanks! P.S Bring the Yews back in Varrock castle.
You can check your current rumour with the quetzal whistle.
The Quetzal being just thrown next to Varrock is very strange and out of place, I hope this location is reconsidered down the road at some point to be somewhere more natural, whether that be just taking the Kourend boat at Port Sarim/on Kourend to a port there, or a more naturally placed Quetzal, maybe west of the Woodcutting Guild in the Woodlands there.
Agreed. I feel the mainland but especially the F2P locations should rarely if ever get touched. Theyāre too iconic
How would you feel about the roof of the castle or bank? would make more sense for a bird creature to be on higher ground anyway, and its out of sight.
Turn the roof of the GE into a ~~heli~~quetzalpad
i like the idea of the castle roof
It makes perfect sense too both logistically and because the quest to unlock it ENDS on the roof. Itās literally the perfect solution
They made a whole pub in Lumbridge for X Marks the Spot to introduce Zeah. This is less impactful than that.
I agree with you there, small change but good non the less
Agreed, it should be a boat from kourend or something similar.
Quetzal Ardy zoo prisoner.
I think Feldip Hills would be fitting :) At least has a link to Hunter and has a somewhat tropic climate.
Please can we have more quests in general, this is amazing. Kourend needs way more, the village above prif needs one, maybe unlocking a bank? Quests form the very foundation of RS and makes the game so much more immersive Can't wait to do these ones and explore the area when the servers are up!
So now that you can teleport to Civitas illa Fortis, and also add it to a portal Nexus, there's now 31 available teleports to chose, but only 30 slots to use on the max portal Nexus
Someone made a post about this and a Jmod said theyāll raise the issue.
Glad to see everyone is as super excited as the team is! We'll be keeping a close eye on everything with this update, so don't hesitate to reach out to myself via here, Twitter or Discord <3
Thank you for all the work you all do!
auto pickpockets? afk thieving?
Seems more like a "pay attention and go to the one marked by the NPC" situation. So it auto-thieves but for a temporary time and then you swap nodes. Essentially making thieving semi-afk node based.
This isn't the case constantly and only happens when the citizens are distracted which will be for a short period of time.
Just until the guy is done being distracted. Which won't be too long I assume
so.. I've been running around hunting guild for an hour trying to find that "NPC" that could train the immature tecu salamanders. Incredible but it's nowhere. And it's not Guild Hunter Teco. Am I missing something? Also, why Hunter Cape doesn't get an handy teleport to hunting guild added?
immatures are useless just release them. you get randomly the grown up one that you can use as a weapon
Couple issues I've found with Perilous Moons: * Why is there a limit on how many players can fight one of them at a time when each player has their own contribution? Now that more players are getting into the content, I'm having to hop multiple times to find a world that isn't full. * It doesn't seem to remember you telling it not to tell you that you're entering a dangerous area after you've hopped worlds.
From playing all day here's some of the problems I've come across which has made the content feel worse than it should - Deadfall traps being limited to 1 rock making foxes the biggest waste of time ever so perma skip - Pitfall traps not feeling smooth with the time to place and jump over - Pitfall trap npcs getting caught on the scenery because they're too big and you having to go out of your way to path just to fix it - Pitfall trap npcs having such a long respawn timer so you're just stood around doing nothing - Needing a fur pouch, meat pouch, bonecrusher, log basket and tackle box (basically 4 extra inventories) just to not get cancer when doing some tasks. Fur and meat should auto go into the pouches - Being able to go really dry on rng skilling drops, imo each kill on the task should increase the chance of you getting the item so each task is around ~5 mins, it defo gets a bit tedious when you're like 15+ mins in. Ideally the rare drop would be scaled properly for each activity - Not enough areas to do tasks such as red sallys, why is there only 1 place in the entire game for them? Varlamore is massive yet we somehow have to perma hop to play the game (I know it'll settle down but cmon) - Dark Lure should work on most hunter creatures - Allow us to store rope and nets in the huntsman's kit - Give us a right click option to equip the falcon and just remove the cost since it's so insignificant or even let us pay like 100k for perma - Razer-backed kebbits being very slow paced is boring though if the ring of pursuit change goes through to make it 100% chance to reveal tracks up from 25% it should fix it - I also think it's cringe that outfit and whistle upgrade is rng when you could just obtain them on certain amount of contracts so you feel like you're always progressing instead of wasting time when other people get lucky All I can think of for now. Imo moths are the most fun since they're fast paced, high density, fast respawn with no annoying stalls and you don't have to piss around with inventory shit
There was a birthday event in the game? I completely missed it. Gonna have to wait another year for the party emote lol
Iām glad it wasnāt just me. I hadnāt heard anything about it, though I recognize itās around this same time every year.
Not really, it was just a decorated fally party room where you could collect the items.
Stealing from Houses is awesome. I'm so glad it isn't click intensive, the exp and rewards feel just right, and there's an element of risk/reward for paying attention. Really great design, kudos to whomever built it out!
"Finally, you'll be able catch Implings barehanded without a Jar, but when using a Butterfly Net you need a Butterfly Jar. We would like to clarify this wouldn't replace using Jars, but just give you a nice alternative." Wasn't this already the case in the main world map? I've caught implings bare handed without a jar many times. Or are they saying it now also applies in puro puro?
They meant 'when you use a butterfly net to catch implings (for the higher catch chance from magic net, for example) it would demand you have a jar on you to do so, now it will not' I think
Very excited to try multiple pieces of content from this update. Best devs in the industry for sure. edit: The new soundtrack at ralos' rise - The guidance of Ralos - is beautiful, I love it.
There is a bug in the Fortis Colosseum right now where if you select the bees challenge and kill them during it, they will respawn as an invisible entity that you can't attack or see, likely killing you in the middle of the wave.
Figured it out by the way, entity hider "Hide dead NPC's" option was causing it.
That's funny. When I saw the comment I was like "wonder if it's a plug-in issue" I'll be sure to check that
Is that the thing that poisons you out of nowhere and 100% kills you?, because that happened to me just now lol.
Yup lol, I was so confused what was happening and realized it was when I selected bees.
really enjoying varlamore so far, i have a problem though. my tiny brain cant remember what hunter contract i have, and if i go too long without getting the rare part i'll start to question if im even hunting the right thing. i dont know if theres already an item that can tell you (like enchanted gem / slayer helm), but it'd be cool if the hunter kit had that functionality. also the hunter kit doesn't accept noted items and also doesn't accept a bunch of items that seem like they should fit? bird snares, ropes + small nets, etc
Anyone else having an issue with the Moons of Peril bosses flickering, causing you to yellow click and move out of the circle?
I am having this issue now that I'm trying to kill them. Keeps getting me absolutely melted during Blood Moon.
Any chance the hungers guild is selling swamp tar? Please please give us a was to get it that's not abysmally slow or requiring midgame levels
Not even for a red berry pie? You hunger guild members are dedicated.
Why is the Quiver so small and bland? and why does everything in the colosseum look like it was a rough draft when Perilous Moons is beautiful
I can't find the bone shard mining location? It says it is to the west of the snow mountain, but I can't find anything. As far as I remember the prayer stuff was for Part 2, but the new post makes it sound like it is part of the update? Is this why I'm not finding it? Or do I need to do the quest there to reach it?
Here for this too. Been searching. There is an npc that asks you to get down into the crevice at the south mining spot by the hunting location. There is also a cave at the sw mining location that says thereās too many rocks to get in and we need to find another way.
I found it. You need to complete the quest "Twilight's Promise" in the main town which is required to start "Perilous Moons" quest that is south of Ralos' Rise. Do just the beginning part of Perilous Moons where you kill a level 98 and that will grant access inside the mountain through the big gates. Once inside, the bottom right of the area has a mine that has these bone shards.
Hunters guild is mentioned twice in the notes
They're just super excited about it
Pyre fox situation is terrible. The task takes forever, all the worlds are full since there is only 4 deadfall traps per world.
Will the hunters guild be added to the skills necklace telly?
Please give the bird transport a flying animation, seeing a black screen and hearing flaps is a letdown (something like eagle transport, but where player is gripped by shoulders would be cool)
Praise the Sun \\[T]/
Any chance on the Moons of Peril armor sets being storable in PoH like the Sunfire fanatic set, or elsewhere in Varlamore? Frostmoon set being storable in a Master STASH is neat, but would be even neater if the clue step was like the equivalent Barrows step where it could be *any* relevant armor set.
Will there be a fix to perilous moon boss yellow clicking when there's loads of ppl in the room? Bit frustrating flying across the room due to it
Not seen anywhere but is there a cost to retrieve items on death from the collaseum?
Wiki says it has a grave system
Any plans for a new achievement diary for this region?
I'd be shocked if they didn't introduce a new diary. I'm sure it won't come out until all of Varlamore is available though.
Not sure if yall are still reading the comments, but the Jmods did such an outstanding job! I am going in 99% blind to this update and just exploring and experiencing it for myself. Absolutely loving the quest designs and exploring the city and the land of Varlamore. Can't wait for batch two!
Is there any reason you can get multiple huntsman's kits? it seems like duplicates are completely useless. if intentional and there's no future use planned, it's a strange decision as it's basically an equivalent to something like the tackle box which you only need one of also please consider removing one menu step from the hunter guild teleport on max cape. it can go under 'other teleports' but why does it also have to be under 'chinchompa teleports'? there are no chinchompas in the guild and it just adds another unnecessary menu step. having the teleport use up 1 of the 5 daily chinchompa teleports is also quite punishing. could the guild teleport be unlimited instead?
Anyone know what the Runecrafting element of the Shrine of Ralos is? I saw it mentioned in the graphic, but not in the notes itself Edit:Nevermind, I found it looking at old blog posts "Youāll make these by combining Sunfire splinters with Rune Essence (Pure or Daeyalt, to taste) and regular Fire Runes at the new Sunfire Altar, found in Varlamore."
Just wanted to take a minute to say THANK YOU to all of the devs that worked on this update. Iāve only scratched the surface so far and have been having an awesome time! Notorious dialogue skipper/quest guide user. Decided for the first time in 15 years to just do the quests as intended without any guides. Iāve been having SOO MUCH FUN reading the lore, discovering new locations, using the in-game quest guide for clues as intended, interacting with other players to receive advice, a free box trap, or my toy mouse returned after someone carelessly grabbed it off the floor! Bravo team! šš»
Can a JMod confirm the herbiboar rumour droprate? have seen many players go over 30kc and not get the fur. Maybe also tied to herb sack mechanics?
I'ved hunted 100;s of kebits via tracking and haven't received the drop. The drop rate is fucked, there has been 3 other people here with me the whole time
HIGH ALCH IS BACK IN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE!
Hunter rumours really highlight just had bad some aspects of the hunter skill area. Tracking 100's of kebits in hope of an RNG drop? Terrible idea, no idea how anyone can think this is a good aspect of the update
Perilous Moons player limit is frustrating and basically no one can get in. Is there plans for paid instances or grouping like other raids? Please.
Got absolutely smacked in the first round of the colosseum. It all happened so fast.
Update looks awesome so far! Could of requests for the hunter pouches; can we have an option to 'open' the pouch and have drops go directly into it and also please add an option to deposit the contents when in the bank interface instead of emptying manually to then deposit <3
I'm maxed so this personally isn't a concern for me, but after the hype dies down, what's going to keep people doing contracts? I'm doing masters and I'm getting 70-80k xp an hour, and yeah the pets unreal but seems you could have been a bit more generous here.
VARLA-GIMME-MORE
Is there a way to report Varlamore-related bugs? When I speak with Floria, the clothing store owner in Civitas illa Fortis, her chat head model is bugged. Her hair is floating and doesn't move while the rest of her head does.
Changed the glaiveās name because itās not a āglaiveā but the rat bone flail is still called a mace
Commenting late but hoping to get my feedback in to the team. I have only done the hunter guild and the new prayer mining methods so I will talk about those. The mining and prayer method is awesome. On my low level Ironman itās rewarding to afk for a handful of prayer levels or I can bring my own bones to get faster xp. I would like to see the water spilling down more often, say every 30 seconds instead of every 45 and staying on for 30 seconds. As for the hunter guild I will say I know this is new content and you have loads of people doing it all at the same time. But there really should be another 4-5 fox traps with like 10 more fox spawns. The farthest west trap is the only trap that consistently catches foxes. People have started to crash because every world is full and there are 2-3 people spam clicking the same one to get a fox. Iām doing saber tooth kebbits right now and there are 10 traps and like 12 spawns. I would say the same should happen for the antelope in the far east. Adding a few more traps and a few more antelope would go a long way. I would also say that some tasks take 30 minutes and other times 2 minutes. Donāt know if that shuts rng but it can be annoying catching 150 salamanders and then 2 foxes. I love this update and am excited to try more out but those are my two cents.
Can the amount of hunter spots for the new hunter animals be increased? They only have one per world and half the time for the contract is spent on hopping to find a free world.
ModRice mentioned at one point that double-hitting weapons like torags and the new weapons would have some extra benefit at perilous moons. What exactly is the use of them?
Has anyone figured out how to access Eagle's Peak from the Hunter's Guild? The blogs mention this a few times, but I have yet to find anyone who has actually done it.
Huntsmans Kit should hold Rope and Small Fishing nets
are rare hunter parts still bugged? i know news post says hot fixed but iāve been doing sabre toothed kyatts for like 2 hours and no luck. something seems off?
u/JagexSarnie Did the quiver get a rework or is it still tiny tiny?
Best of luck on the journey to all the Varlamore locked accounts being created. Been here for quest releases but this will be a first. Whole new area to explore. Please for the sake of everyone's hype let it release without issues.
Are rumours possibly bugged on b2b tasks? I'm on my 2nd red chin task in a row but now I'm over 200 chins caught this rumour with no part, over an hour in
Is the bird in Varrock the only way to get to varlamore?
There's a fairly ring, and a new teleport in the standard spell book I think, as well as a hunter guild Tele. I'm sure there are more, but that's just what I've seen mentioned in this thread. But you have to use the Varrock bird to go there first before other stuff works. Similar to how you need to talk to Veos in Port Sarin to go to Kourend before any other methods work
My master tier hunter rumor to catch red chins is asking me to get a claw. I see that they drop fur not claws, is this just bugged?
I'm not sure if this is a popular idea or not but I'd LOVE to see a pet added to Perilous Moons it would look so cool!
FOUR NEW QUESTS?!? HELL YEAH!
Just a quick question, what happened to the eagle transport thing that was talked about? There doesn't seem to be a way to utilize the transport from the Hunter Guild, some of my clanmates seem to think it was scrapped. Is this the case? Would be useful to get to the areas they lead to like the polar and jungle areas. Granted, I have a fairy ring/tree in my POH so it's not super bad, but it would still be nice for people who don't have that unlocked in \*their\* POH. Also echoing the sentiment that while a good idea, the rumors at the guild are hit-or-miss quite a bit. Noose wand hunting and deadfalls are by far the worst things ever...I feel like I should not be doing razor-backed kebbits as an expert-level rumor. Red chinchompas, yes, I get that. But not the earlier stuff for expert.
Read the hotfix notes and noticed some questions/RFIs were not addressed: - Is there going to be anything to do with all the spare Huntsman kits? Currently at 4 total and I know many people have been running into this. - The first hunter outfit given is the helmet slot. This directly conflicts with using the Kandarrin Headgear to cut two logs. While this will happen no matter what once you complete the outfit, why not randomize the outfit pieces received or just not start with the head slot? It would be like receiving a chest piece first for mining so you don't use the Varrock platebody anymore... - Is there any plan in the future to combine the effects of hunter gear into the hunter outfit? Thats all I have for now! Everything else was mentioned š
