17 February updates, Kraken week & Saradomin weekend

[Mike]

Updated on 17 February 2016
> Removed the safespot at Kraken island
> Fixed the Kraken Tentacle drop - the Krakens accidentally dropped an Abyssal Tentacle instead of a Kraken Tentacle
> You can now only trade fully charged Tridents of the Seas
> Barrows Brothers are now aggressive once again
> Fixed the bug that caused ironman mode players to pay half the price (in ::prices) of a custom whip, fire cape or morph ring when trying to reobtain it from the refund box when lost on death. Now they only have to pay the same price as regular players would.
> The magic attack bonus of Trident of the Seas has been buffed to +25 instead of +15 and the max hit has been increased to 22 - 32 (from 20 - 30).
> Fixed forum ranks - for the past day, forum ranks wouldn't update correctly if your in-game rank changed or if you obtained donator/premium/honor status. Some players may still have incorrect ranks from before todays update but we're working to fix those.

> Added the Armadyl crossbow!
This crossbow is dropped only by Commander Zilyana and has the following properties:
- +100 ranged attack and +10 prayer bonus
- Enchanted bolt special effects occur more often with this crossbow than with any other crossbow, but only when used against NPC's
- It has a special attack which costs 80% of your special attack energy.
When used against an NPC, the accuracy is increased by 20% and when using enchanted bolts you'll guaranteed land a bolt special effect on your next hit
When used against a player, your accuracy is doubled (does not affect your chance on an enchanted bolt special effect)


Kraken week
Starting tomorrow evening, lasting 7 days, there is a Kraken event, which means:
> +20% droprates on all items
> Double pet droprates
> You don't need to be on a slayer task nor have a slayer streak in order to kill the Kraken

Ends in:




Saradomin GWD weekend
This weekend, there's a Saradomin GWD event, meaning:
> +20% droprates on all items
> Double pet droprates
> No killcount requirement to enter

ACB HYPE

Is it a Nex weekend or Sara Godwars weekend? Assuming you meant Sara in the title.

Cool updates Mike!

Heard a lot of hype around armadyl crossbow, glad to see it's added! Hopefully this breathes new life into Sara GWD, I feel as though it doesn't get as much interest as the other 3 (No drops which are QUITE as useful as bandos pieces, armadyl armor/godsword, and zammy spear).

Good luck all on drops and pets! I hope to some day be among you!

Armadyl crossbow gets implemented, dropped by Saradomin boss. What.... -_-

Reasoning for this?

Other than that, keep up the good work!
