Classic Highscores
http://www.alora.io/...-350-in-prizes/
- Combat fixes:
- Magic attack distance increased by 1 step. (10)
- NPC aggressive distance fixed:
- Default (for most npcs) has been reduced from 6 steps to 4 steps.
- Magic axes/Zombie/Skeleton aggression reduced to 2 steps.
- King black dragon aggressive distance increased to 10 steps from 6.
- NPCs who have no way of reaching you will now end combat and stop facing you.
- For example, if you are being attacked by Magic axes and you leave the axe hut, there is no path for the axe to reach you, so it will end combat with you.
- Birds next changes:
- The chance of getting a special nest (Eg. Clue nest, birds egg nest, gold ring nest) has been increased from 1/7 to 1/4 to make it more likely.
- Skotizo bug fixes:
- If you tried to summon Skotizo and he was already in the world it would reset your timer to 12 hours and not allow you to summon during that time, which was not intended.
- The de-spawn message would show even on player-summoned Skotizos. This has been removed and will only show then the World-event Skotizo is defeated.
- TzTok-Jad Slayer task blocking bug fixed:
- Previously, you would still receive this task if blocked.
- Armadyl dragonhide added to hard clue reward table
- These hides were not on the hard clue reward table (an oversight on my part) and have been added.
- Raids drop rates increased
- Unique loot will now be more likely to receive.
- Bloody chest rates increased:
- The rate at which rare items are given has been increased by 10%.
- Donators are now more likely to obtain extra items from the chest:
- The chest usually gives 1-3 items, but donators will now have a chance at extra item(s):
- Regular, Super and Extreme donators can have one extra items (up to 4 total, if very lucky)
- Legendary and Uber can have two extra items (up to 5 total, if very lucky)
- The chance of landing an extra item:
- Regular: 5%
- Super: 10%
- Extreme: 20%
- Legendary: 25%
- Uber: 35%
- Note:
- Extra items rolls are individual of each other. For example, if you are an Uber donator, you have two chances at an extra item at 35% chance per roll. That means you have a ~17.5% chance of obtaining 2 extra items.
- An in-game message in green will tell you when you hit 1/2 extra items.
- The chest usually gives 1-3 items, but donators will now have a chance at extra item(s):
- Fixed Max cape requirement:
- Farming was previously unnecessary to max in order to get the max cape. This has been fixed, and you will now need all skills to be 99 to get the cape.
- This also fixes the “ has maxed out their skills!” bug.
- Miscellaneous:
- Corporeal beast invincibility bug fixed.
- Community manager/Veteran yell tag colors fixed.

- Thieving, Crystal chest, Pest control, Money Caskets, Ensouled heads, Emblems, Shooting stars
- Shop nerf:
- Some shops have reduced items. For example, you cannot buy rune armour from any shop. Up to adamant is purchasable, though.
- Donations are available, but only items from the Ironman shop can be purchased.
- Additionally, some donation perks are nerfed.
- Classic-only Clan chat:
- If possible, Classic players will be entered into the “Classic” clan chat rather than the default “Alora” one.
