The ever-inventive ninjas have gotten their helpful hands on Invention for this week’s update. Check out the best of their improvements to augmenting, disassembling, fishing rod-o-matics and so much more.
Stick around for the usual live stream info and all the other things that are going on in RuneScape.
Important note - for this week’s update there will be an extended period of maintenance (which is expected to last an hour) on the following Worlds: 3. 4. 8. 20. 55. 57. 38. 40. 41. 85. 86. 43. 72. 73. 96. 14. 30. 37. 51. 65.
Invention, and especially augmentation, has had the ninja treatment this week. Here are a few of things now in-game for you to enjoy:
Level 70 and higher defenders of each combat style can now be augmented too! They only have one gizmo slot but can take either a weapon or armour gizmo. Also check out the fantastic new design that defender models have when augmented – they are all sprockety and coggy and wonderful!
Upgraded malevolent, sirenic & tectonic armours (as well upgraded armours earned via God Wars Dungeon 2) can also be augmented at an Invention workbench. You will need a new armour piece, an augmentor and 36 of the Divine Charge item in order to do this.
These armour pieces use their own charge, rather than a main charge pack. Once all charge has been used, the item can’t be siphoned for XP but can be levelled up to 10.
Already degraded armour cannot be augmented and gear upgraded in this way cannot use augmentation dissolvers.
Additionally, degrading rates have decreased from 20% to 10% for non-augmented GWD2 upgraded armour when reclaimed from the gravestone.
Other highlights from the ninjas include:
