Hello everyone,
This week's update contains many long-awaited bug fixes, numerous QOL updates (from some great suggestions you guys have put out) and some unique content. Some of this content includes 7 new Theatre of Blood pets that you can unlock when you obtain the Metamorphic dust from the loot chest, Autocast saving when you swap weapons, Jewelry decantation through Murky Matt for a fee, Hosidius farming patch functionality, the Farmer's blessing item & more! We'll let you see the rest for yourself below:
- Bug fixes:
- Fixed client crash due to item filters:
- Players with 50 or more filtered items previously would not be able to log in, this has been fixed and you can now add more than 50 items to your filters.

- The combat dummy at home can no longer be envenomed or poisoned.

- Fixed client crash due to item filters:
- Teleport Interface update:
- You can now use the Teleport Wizard to teleport to Brimhaven through the "Cities" menu, which should make reaching the farming patch there a bit quicker.
- Theatre of Blood Metamorphic Dust: (Thanks to @No for the suggestion!)
- Metamorphic dust is now an available reward from the Theatre of Blood!
- This does not affect your chance at unique loot from the chests, and is rolled entirely separately, so you don't need to feel bad if you obtain this instead of a Scythe.
- The chance to obtain this dust is similar to the chance of obtaining the Lil' Zik pet, but you cannot get them both in a drop, it will have to be one or the other.
- This item can be added to the Lil' Zik pet, allowing you to access 7 different metamorphosis options for your pet:
- Lil' Maiden
- Lil' Bloat
- Lil' Nylocas
- Silver
- Green
- Blue
- Lil' Sotetseg
- Lil' Xarpus
- It is not a tradable item, and once you obtain it once you will no longer have a chance for it as loot from ToB.
- If you have insured Lil' Zik already, it covers all of these pets. You only need to buy insurance for one of them to cover them all.
- This does not affect your chance at unique loot from the chests, and is rolled entirely separately, so you don't need to feel bad if you obtain this instead of a Scythe.
- Metamorphic dust is now an available reward from the Theatre of Blood!

- The Angler set previously only granted a maximum of 2.3% bonus Fishing experience, but will now grant the intended 2.5%.
- Players can now left click on objects that have the “Cook” option to bring up the cooking interface if they have raw food available.

- Autocast spell saving:
- When setting up an autocast spell on a staff, that will now be re-applied when you un-equip and re-equip the staff.
- Note that this will only work for re-equipping the same weapon, so if you setup an autocast spell on an ancient staff, and later equip a staff of air, it will not save automatically apply the autocast spell to the staff of air.
- When setting up an autocast spell on a staff, that will now be re-applied when you un-equip and re-equip the staff.
