This week’s tweaks include Yama improvements and bug-squashing!


Changelog June 11th


Yama Tweaks
The boosted pet drop rate from the Contract of Familiar Acquisition now applies to both players if they are in the same Group Ironman team. Emberlight's special attack no longer reduces Yama’s offensive stats, preventing him from being rendered completely harmless via repeated stat drains. Ruby and Diamond Bolt (e) special effects no longer trigger when fighting Yama during the Glyphic Attenuation contract to enforce the intended melee-only strategy.
Other Changes
Abyssal scions now max hit for 10 with melee, down from 15. Noted Crushed Bird Nests will no longer be deleted when destroying a Looting Bag in the Wilderness. Using the Quetzal Whistle to teleport no longer causes delayed damage after arrival, preventing deaths from damage queued during the teleport animation. Prayer Regeneration Potions now reset in the same way that Divine Potions and the Saturated Heart do, when a player dies or visits minigames that reset their stats. Thralls will no longer deal damage to Kurasks and Turoths. The Collection Log overview can now be opened at the same time as the Combat Achievement interface. The collapsed version of the Chambers of Xeric helper panel no longer overlaps with the points menu. You can no longer lose Tithe Farm points by reactivating the auto-weed, having just purchased it. Refilling Gricoller's Can through the Tithe Farm Shop is now free. The elemental wizards south of Falador now correctly take damage from all elemental spells except their own, which heal them instead. Items dropped on the stairs in Pothole Dungeon can now be picked up without problems. Fixed an issue where the Shaman's Tome could not be obtained during Legends' Quest. Broodoo Shields now correctly have a 1/10 chance to drain attacker stats when taking damage from monsters, consuming a charge and triggering their unique effect. Efaritay's Aid now consumes only one charge rather than two when buffing a single attack. Fixed an issue where repeatedly clicking “Apply” at Yrsa’s Shoe Store could stack multiple dialogues. The animation for adding logs to a bonfire can now be ended more reliably when switching to other skilling activities. Updated the Tribal Totem Quest Log to refer to GPDT Employees instead of "R.P.D.T. men”. Tinsay is now correctly credited with teaching players how to cook Karambwan in Tai Bwo Wannai Trio quest dialogue. The entrance door of the Lumbridge pub now opens to the left instead of the right. The Runecrafting Skill Guide now lists what elements combination Runes will provide you with.

Yama Tweaks

We’ve made a few little adjustments to Yama this week!
GIM and Pet
First up: great news for our Group Ironman players! The boosted pet drop rate for Yama now applies to both players if you're in the same group. No more watching your teammate get all the perks while you get moral support and a few bones. Group content is meant to be tackled as a group, after all!
Cheesy Emberlight?
Some of you clever clogs discovered that Emberlight’s special attack could be used to repeatedly drain Yama’s offensive stats - basically turning him into a mildly annoyed training dummy. While we admire the creativity, that strategy pretty much deleted the intended challenge, so we’ve had to fix it.
Emberlight's special will no longer reduce Yama’s offensive stats, meaning you'll have to actually engage with the fight instead of putting the boss in time-out. We know this is a pretty firm change, but we wanted to get a robust fix out first - we're open to exploring slightly less harsh alternatives in the future, if it makes sense to do so. Let us know what you think!
The Bolt Ban
Finally, a quick note for those working on the Glyphic Attenuation contract. It’s supposed to be a melee-only challenge - a test of your ability to get up close and personal. However, special effects from Ruby and Diamond Enchanted Bolts were giving players an unintended edge. We've now disabled those effects during this contract.
We know this one might sting for anyone who’s been leaning on that strategy to get through. If you've already completed it that way, fair play - you got in before the fix. However, going forward, it’s all about melee!
