Pet Cats by Kleio

News > Pet Cats > 17 Apr 2024 19:10

Since Easter Holiday we have pet cats available in the game, it was possible to buy cats as a holiday item. Since the release we have prepared updates to the cat to act on the feedback from the community as well as release new features:

Teen and Adult Cat can now fight NPC’s;
You can train cat combat levels;
Reworked feeding and interaction features, helping your cat grow now will be easier;
Owners will be better informed about cat status;
Cat won’t be permanently lost if it runs off due to neglect, you now get it back. Players who have lost their cat before this update can get it back as well.
New command ::adultcat which will show a GUI of what your cat can attack at each combat level. We have stuck to original RSC monsters for now.

About pet cats

There are in total 5 different colour schemes: gray/white, black/white, light brown/white, ginger/white, and dark gray/white. All of them have the same abilities and stats at this moment. Cat is a permanent item, you can lose it only by intentionally dropping it.

Cat is a fun and useful companion, in game you can:

Grow the pets by feeding, playing, training and spending time with them;
Train pet combat skills;
Have 10 extra item storage slots on the pet;
Have pet heal you;
Do duels between pets;
More special abilities to come in the future!

Cat growth

At this moment there are three stages of growth: kitten, teen cat, adult cat. Two more stages to be released!

Cats will mature from getting food and attention as you navigate through the game and while you're accruing experience. To get the growth points required you should be walking, training and interacting with the cat. Just standing around and giving it food every now and then is not recommended. For the cat to grow one stage you need to gather 1000 growth points.

Cat hunger and loneliness

After activating the cat, you must take good care of it until it’s an adult. You must give it food and interact with it unless it gets lonely and runs away.

Cat hunger and loneliness increases with time, it does not matter what you do in game, in ~15 minutes of being on the ground your pet may need to be fed or interacted with.

It can survive ~40 minutes without any action from the player. The cat will indicate to you that it needs something verbally as well as you will get a message in-game. The more needy the cat, the more often the cat will try to attract your attention.

When cat is lonely you can:

Stroke the cat, via interact menu - restores loneliness -30 points;
Give it ball of wool or bow string to play with - restores loneliness -60 points;

When cat is hungry you can feed it, restores hunger -50 points:

Bucket of milk;
Trout (raw and cooked);
Tuna (raw and cooked);
Sardine (raw and cooked);
Salmon (raw only);
Raw Anchovies;
Raw Shrimp.

Should you wish to halt the progress of your cat, you may pick the cat up and revert it to a pouch in your inventory. All progress for cats is recorded to your character, not the item. Theoretically, you can rear all 5 different sets to maturity.

Upon reaching adulthood, your cat will become significantly less demanding and will aid you in activities such as healing, holding storage.

Cat Combat Training

Cats, just like players, now have access to training combat stats - attack, defense, strength and hits. You can train your Teen or Adult cat by right clicking on it and clicking hunt. Through the same menu you can also switch the combat style the cat uses.

After hunting has been activated in the menu the cat will seek npc’s nearby that it can attack. The cat won’t engage NPC’s that are much higher level than it is, we have added protection in place, that pets will attack only certain NPC’s when it is at various levels.

When a cat has 30% of its hits left iit will retaliate from the fight. You can use food on your cat and it will heal its hits.
If a pet dies while in combat, it will run away.

While the cat is training, the player must stay 40 squares away from the cat, or it will teleport back to you.

Cat will train at half of your xp rate, you can see the cat xp rate through the stats menu.

At this moment the game client will not correctly show the cat combat level, you must click on it to get the correct information.

Healing

Adult cats will heal their owner every minute up to 5 hits outside of the Wilderness.

Storage

Adult cats can store up to 10 items (not stacks) in storage.

Dueling

Players can do duels between pets. They work exactly the same as regular duels, just players are not in control of combat style during the fight, only before it.

Opponents can see pet combat levels only after clicking on the cat. At this moment just hovering over a pet cat will show level 3 combat, it may not be true. This will be fixed in the future.

Getting the cat back after it runs off.

If you lose your cat you can get it back from the Cat Lady in Edgeville, she will give it back to you after you bring her a selection of unique items and make payment.

Future

We plan to continue incrementally updating the cat and we hope to grow it into a useful companion to walk with you. We will enable abilities to train magic as well as supply the cat with armour for protection and unpredictable duels with other pet owners.

Deadman mode LIVE by Kleio

News > Deadman mode LIVE > 14 Jul 2023 18:41

Deadman mode season running for two weeks, ending on July 30th.

About Deadman

This game mode is similar to the Deadman mode found on OSRS, where players play in a full world PvP environment. Deadmen walk, fight in the same world as regular players, but are limited to F2P area without Wilderness. Players are required to be completely self-sufficient, everyone stands alone. Players participate in 1vs1 combat only, game mechanics don't allow multiple players to cast or range one victim. Quick changing of opponents is also not possible.

Skilling with Deadman Satchel

The Deadman Satchel is a unique item designed to enhance gameplay in the Deadman mode by allowing players to remain combat-ready while engaging in skilling activities. It offers the convenience of automatically collecting resources from activities such as mining and woodcutting. However, it's important to note that the satchel contents will be lost upon death, unlike the bank, where only a percentage of items is lost, or the safety deposit box, which provides full protection but has limited capacity.

The primary functionality of the Deadman Satchel can be summarised as follows:

Collection of Resources: When engaging in activities like mining or woodcutting, the satchel will automatically gather the obtained resources and store them within itself.

Combat Readiness: Despite focusing on skilling, the satchel allows players to maintain their combat equipment and readiness, ensuring they can quickly transition into combat if needed.

Limited Capacity: The satchel has a finite capacity to store resources. Once it reaches its maximum capacity, the player will need to visit a bank to deposit the contents before continuing their skilling activities.

Loss on Death: In the event of the player's death, the contents of the satchel will be lost entirely. This introduces an element of risk, as players must weigh the benefits of using the satchel against the potential loss of accumulated resources upon death.

The Deadman Satchel offers an alternative method for resource collection and combat readiness in Deadman mode, promoting a dynamic and strategic approach to gameplay. Players must carefully manage their satchel's contents, balancing the benefits of resource accumulation with the risk of losing everything upon death.

Satchel can store 125 items in total (not stacks), storage space can be increased by subscribing your character. +125 for Gold Subscription and + 125 for Platinum Subscription.

Visually Satchel has interface just like bank, you can organise it, deposit notes to it, withdraw items as notes works only while being inside a bank. Banker NPC can deposit whole satchel content to bank through dialogue.

If you lose the Satchel, you can get another one from Deadman Npc.

Getting gp, gear and supplies

In this mode getting gear is not difficult, we have added various shortcuts that help players accumulate wealth quickly as well as all main supplies are available in the store through Deadman NPC in Edgeville and Lumbridge.

Mining ores, chopping trees, fishing gives you 2x the resources, if you have Deadman Satchel in inventory they can be gathered very quickly. Resources that you collect can be sold to shops for some quick gp.

Killing players get you part of their bank, most active and successful PKers can raise funds quickly.

Killing NPC’s gives you coins that go straight into your inventory. The amount of coins depends on the combat level of the NPC and your subscription status.

No subscription: npc combat level * 9
Gold subscription: npc combat level * 12
Gold + Platinum subscription: npc combat level * 15

Death in Deadman Mode

If you die with a skull

You will lose a percentage from 10 most valuable stacks in your bank to the Bank Raid Chest. (Higher level opponent -> smaller percentage)
You will lose percentage of all unprotected stats (Higher level opponent -> Smaller percentage)

If you die unskulled

If you have taken damage from a player:

You will lose a smaller percentage from 10 most valuable stacks in your bank to the Bank Raid Chest. (Higher level opponent -> smaller percentage)
You will lose a smaller percentage of all unprotected stats (Higher level opponent -> Smaller percentage)
You will lose all items from your inventory and equipment

Maximum loss percentage is 50%, minimum is 15%.

If you have not taken any damage from a player:

You keep 3 most valuable items
You don't lose any bank items
You don't lose any experience

If you die and lose experience, your experience rate for that skill is doubled until you reach the experience you once had.

If you die while having a Deadman Satchel in inventory to a player, opponent gets 50% coin value of your satchel contents. If you die to an NPC Satchel just vanishes. Contents of the Satchel are always lost.

Bank Raid Keys & Chests

If you manage to kill a player in Deadman Mode, you will receive a Deadman Key. This key will give you access to a chest which contains a percentage of 10 most valuable stacks from the opponent's bank.

Deadman Key:

Received upon killing a player;
Unlocks bank raid chest;
Cannot be traded, banked, only destroyed;
When you kill a player who has got Deadman Keys in his inventory, you will get his keys;
You can only hold a maximum of five keys at a time, if you have five keys and kill someone, the key will not be dropped.

Bank Raid Chest:

Deadman keys should be used on Bank Raid Chest located in Edgeville bank;

Safety Deposit Box

Deadmen have an option to keep their most valuable items safe using a safety deposit box which can hold up to 10 items, not stacks. The box can be accessed through Bankers.

Stat protection

You can protect stats from being reduced on death:

1 Combat skill (attack, strength and defense);
1 Secondary combat skill (prayer, magic and ranged);
3 Skilling stats.

Hitpoints are auto-calculated on death.
You can protect your stats by opening stat menu and right clicking the stat you want to protect, and selecting "Protect <stat>".

Combat stat reduction

If you’d like to change the build of your account you have two options, both are accessible through Deadman NPC.

Reduce one combat stat to 1 or nearest rounded number, for example 49 to 40. This costs Platinum Subscription Card.;
Reset your combat status fully, this means becoming Combat Level 3 again. The reset affects combat stats only - Attack, Strength, Defence, Hits, Prayer, Ranged and Magic. The reset is done for free.

Suiciding to players to reduce stats is now a bannable offence.

Skull mechanism

Skull default time is 15 minutes, maximum skull time 30 minutes;
Each time you attack a player while you are skulled, your skull timer is reset and your skull time is extended by two minutes.
If you attack a player 30 or more levels below you, your skull time is set to 30 minutes.
Your skull timer does not tick down if you stand still. You have to be on the move to lose your skull.
Players who attack you when you are skulled will not get skulled themselves.
Safe zones have high level guards, which attack skulled players trying to enter it.

Kill-streaks

Each time you kill a player, your kill-streak increases. This is indicated by your skull color changing.
Additionally, the amount of Deadman Keys you hold in your inventory is indicated above skull by key icons.
