Boss Pet Overrides | God Wars Dungeon 2 Improvements

Written by Rider on . Posted in RuneScape News

You wanted it, you got it - give your summoned familiars an extra sprinkling of awesome with fantastic boss pet overrides. Also re-enter the Heart of Gielinor for God Wars Dungeon 2 improvements.

Then zip down to the patch notes section to check out the latest NXT updates and other fixes and improvements.


Boss Pet Overrides for Summoning Familiars

Helwyr Boss Pet Override

If you’ve defeated a boss and earned its pet drop, then you’ll be able to apply it as an override for any familiar you summon. Doing so will change your familiar to resemble the boss of your choosing, complete with fantastic new animations as your familiar performs its actions.

We hope you enjoy this brand new and useful way to show off your boss slaying prowess! Let us know what you think in the forums.

God Wars Dungeon 2 Improvements

The fight rages on deep in the Heart of Gielinor, so to help you enjoy this fantastic piece of boss battling content, we’ve made a selection of improvements:

    • Kill timers have been added to each of the bosses
    • A way to renew instance time while inside a God Wars Dungeon 2 instance is available via the kill count interface.
    • Drop tables for the mobs inside the dungeon have been added
    • Improved clickzones on the bosses
    • On a faction insignia, you can now toggle the option to prevent dealing damage to matching faction NPCs
    • You can now check via the kill count interface which bounty you have currently been assigned by Feng the Bounty Master
    • You can now toggle on faction insignias the option to automatically collect ingression fragments.
    • The Aftershock Invention perk will now proc more frequently
    • A tooltip for your current reputation points has been added to the kill count interface
    • A slimmer and a smaller version of the kill count interface is now available
    • Bloom for the Twin Furies’ weapon gems has been added

Let us know what you think of the improvements and keep the feedback on the Heart coming in!
