Hello everyone,
The mobile beta is now open for testing! We are very close to a public release, and with improved stability of the client we feel comfortable opening it up to a wider audience. The following players can access the client today:
- Eternal donators
- Administrators
- Youtubers
Over the next 10 days, access will be further expanded according to the following schedule:
- October 20th:
- Immortal donators, Moderators, Veterans
- October 22nd:
- Master donators, Server support
- October 24th:
- Uber donators, Legendary donators
- October 26th:
- Extreme donators
- October 28th:
- Full release
The client can be accessed at the link below on your mobile device:
Alora Mobile Client
Upon visiting this page, if you are on iOS you will be presented with instructions on how to install (Click the "Share" button, then "Add to Home Screen") and on Android you should similarly see an "Install app" button appear, but if not you can click the drop-down menu and manually select the "Install app" option. We strongly recommend installing the app to your Home Screen before playing (though you may play in the browser) because you will be able to use the entirety of your device's display, whereas the browser will have the URL bar and other unnecessary elements obstructing your gameplay.
Please keep in mind that we are still working out some bugs and making performance improvements, so be mindful of this while partaking in the beta and the risk it carries in the case of a client crash. Of course, we are counting on you to report bugs in the Bug report scection so that we can patch them up for a smoother release on October 28th.
In regards to the Mobile Tournament (with over $3,000 in prizes!), we will be releasing a separate post in the following days to provide the full run-down on how to participate :)
Additionally, we've updated our Combat Achievement system to be points-based as OSRS has, we'll let you check that out below:
- Combat Achievement Points System:
- The combat achievement system has been transitioned into a point-based system, where players will reach tiers after meeting a specific point threshold.
- Each task difficulty is worth a specific number of points.
- Easy tasks: 1 point each
- Medium tasks: 2 points each
- Hard tasks: 3 points each
- Elite tasks: 4 points each
- Master tasks: 5 points each
- Grandmaster tasks: 6 points each
- To reach a tier, players will need to obtain the following amount of points:
- Easy: 25 points
- Medium: 95 points
- Hard: 269 points
- Elite: 709 points
- Master: 1264 points
- Grandmaster: 1732 points
- The number of points for each tier is simply = (tasksInTier * pointsPerTierTask) + previousTierRequirement.
- For example, there are 25 easy tasks, worth 1 point each, so 25*1 = 25 points.
- There are 35 medium tasks worth 2 points each, which means players will need (35*2) + 25 = 95 points to reach this tier.
- The combat achievement system has been transitioned into a point-based system, where players will reach tiers after meeting a specific point threshold.
- Players can view the number of points required for each tier in the rewards combat achievement interface.
[/list][*]Logout Changes:
- Players will now be logged out much more quickly when in PvM combat outside of the wilderness in the event of a client crash.
- Previously, players would continue attacking the npc for up to 30 seconds if their client crashed.
- This time has now been reduced to less than 5 seconds.
- These changes do not apply to disconnections, since the server still holds out for a response to reconnect from the client.
[*]Meyerditch Laboratories:
- The Npc spawns have been added to the Meyerditch Laboraties, near the true blood altar.
- 7 Mutated bloodvelds
- 4 Bloodvelds
