Update Notes / Updates 15/10/2014 - Monster Drop Changes

« on: October 15, 2014, 12:23:24 pm »

Hi,

We've edited a lot of monster drops today! Furthermore, this is only batch 1 of our rework. We'll be releasing more changes during the next week.

I've made a list for the most important changes: (They're not only drop related!)

• Dragons are being buffed again.
• Dragons no longer drop rune/dragon items frequently, they are rarer now!
• Gargoyles drop table reworked. They drop all granite parts now as rare drops
• Draconic visages have a 0.1% drop rate on dragons now!
• KBD has learned arcane magics. He's now able to use his dragon breath as magic attack too.
• Dragon's firebreaths fixed (always wear an anti-dragon shield! hehe)
• Abyssal demon drops reworked. Obby items have become rarer
• Chronozon drops changed. He's now dropping splitbark! Moreover, his hits were reworked. Melee max hit is 30 and magic max hit 50, without protection prayers!
• Heroes are now dropping rune items with a 2% chance.
• Avatars completely reworked. They are no longer dropping any other rare items along 3rd age. There are now resource drops instead of infinity, ranger boots, robin hood hat, etc...
• Cockatrices & Banshees minor changes: Potato cactus and janger berries on 10% drop chance plus in noted form!
• Skeletal Wyverns have received a rare drop: Crystal bow/shield with a 0.5% drop chance each, saradomin armour pieces have been lowered.
• Kalphite Queen's protection prayers do now show effect. They block 25% of the respective combat style
• Dark beast darkbow drop rate lowered.
• Seercull bow removed from the chest in wildy castle. (The one you open with crystal keys)
• Mutant tarns now drop uncut onyx, seercull bows and climbing boots as rare drop.
• Monks of zamorak now drop zammy wines.
• Coin drops of all monsters from above have been adjusted. --> More coins!
• Many reported bugs fixed.

I hope you're enjoying the updates of today. There will be more of them in the coming week.

All the best,
Thomy


EDIT: I may be updating the list a few times today because I may have forgotten some things!

Update Notes / Updates 02/10/2014

« on: October 02, 2014, 07:41:50 am »

Hi,

In today's update we've changed quite a few things and also introducing new prayers for Range and Magic!

• Kree'arra is now really attacking with ranged attacks. The magic attack bug was fixed.
• Trading & Staking timers added. If you remove an item in the staking or trading interface, you have to wait 3 seconds before you can finally accept the trade. This should avoid a lot of scams.
• Prayer completely reworked. You now have Chivalry and Piety for Melee, Ranged and Magic available. Furthermore prayers are now also being saved upon logging out.
• Run mode is now being saved too.
• A bug where the attack option disappears in duel arena and castle wars was fixed.
• Attack option hovering on the fixed screen client is fixed.
• Magic prayers and potions are now increasing the max hit.

I hope you're having fun playing Emps-World!

All the best,
Thomy

Update Notes / Updates 29/09/2014

« on: September 29, 2014, 09:20:25 am »

Hi,

I've updated a lot of small things today, so I'm giving you guys a little list:

• GWD drops updated - every boss has exactly an 8% drop chance for a good item.
• The moving speed of your character has been adjusted. It feels like you're moving a bit quicker. This change was made because the server was moving you quicker than it appeared on your side of the client. It should now be equal!
• Kree'arra is now attacking with ranged attacks
• K'ril Tsutsaroth is now attacking with magic attacks
• KBD is now acting like any other dragon, without strange and fixed hits.
• Free member has ended. We'll announce double XP weekends or free member weekends when they're coming.
• Castle Wars and Duel Arena attack options updated. That means that you only have attack options on your enemy team. In duel arena only on the player you're fighting!
• ::news is now working! Type ::commands to get a list of all commands.
• Castle wars is now giving tickets again.
• Castle wars and pest control will give double tickets when double XP is enabled from now on.
• Zamorakian spear, whip and granite maul drop rates were slightly lowered.

All the best,
Thomy

Feedback / Ancient Curses?

« on: September 25, 2014, 05:55:55 am »

Hey guys,

Before I start working on ancient curses, I want to know if you even want to have them in game? If you do not want them, can you please state why?

The poll will run for 3 days. If there's a definite majority wanting the curses, I'll start working on them. The plan is that they will be a reward of some new boss monster. Simply said, same mechanics as fire cape.

All the best,
Thomy

Update Notes / Updates 24/09/2014 - Monster Defence

« on: September 24, 2014, 08:26:20 am »

Hi!

I've lowered all monster's defencee bonus by a little bit. I found that they were hitting far too often. This update may not be final, but it's a test to see how bosses are performing now. (In general they should hit more 0s on you now)

EDIT: I've also rebalanced anger weapons. They will be a bit stronger than god swords on boss monsters, but much weaker on small monsters.

EDIT2: I was able to solo a general graardor in 3rd age with a full inventory of mantas, prayer and a super set.

All the best,
Thomy

General Discussion / Blocked Application Fix

« on: September 19, 2014, 09:09:01 am »

Hi!

I'm creating this guide to fix possible automated blocking of the client. There isn't much you need to do to get it to work, except for adding
emps-world.net to Java's security exceptions. I've written a guide to take you through the required steps.

MAC USERS GO HERE: http://emps-world.net/forum/index.php?topic=4182.0


Why is that? (Skip this if you don't care why)

Since Java 7.51 they have decided that Java applications cannot be run anymore unless they are signed off by a trusted authority. Sounds great, doesn't it? Yes, it sounds awesome, but signing the client by a trusted authority costs $200. In the end it's just a money rip-off for developers.


How to add Emps-World as Security Exception

1-2: Search for Java on your computer and find: Configure Java or Java Control Panel.

(Find Java Control Panel on a MAC: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_controlpanel.xml)

3-4: Click on Security and hit the Edit Site List... button.


5-7: Click on the Add button and enter http://emps-world.net/ in the Location field. Please make sure that you enter EXACTLY http://emps-world.net, else it WILL NOT WORK!
Then hit the OK button and you're done.


8: Head over to http://emps-world.net/play and see if it has worked.


Still not working?

If you still cannot get the webclient to work, please just post here and we'll do our best to help you.
