Ultimate Ironman Mode - delayed

Update: As a result from our official poll in regards to storage capabilities for Ultimate Ironman Mode players, we have decided to postpone the release of Ultimate Ironman Mode until the Looting Bag, Rune Pouch and other storage abilities have been added. Sorry!

Due to the break myself and Rapsey are taking, UIM will not be released until at least the first week of Febuary. Instead, you're getting a new wilderness boss!

Mike wrote:So what is Ultimate Ironman Mode (or UIM) exactly?

According to the 2007scape wiki:
Ultimate Ironman players are not able to do the following, in addition to the standard restrictions given to all ironmen:

- Use any banks (they are still able to use noted items on bank booths to unnote them)
- Create item sets using the Grand Exchange
- Keep any item on death nor use the Protect Item prayer
So, we've made those restrictions apply on our UIM mode as well :)

There are however 2 more things you can do in PkHonor:
> Use an unnoted item on a bank booth to note it
> Use your refund box to store pets, coins and 100M/500M/1B tickets


Of course, we've also added a new tab in our highscores! (not yet live - goes live with the UIM release)


Lastly, Ultimate Ironman Mode players will not be able to benefit from any bonus XP weekends. They will probably be allowed to partake one year from now.
However, as of now, regular Ironman Mode players will be able to benefit from bonus XP weekends!


Ultimate Ironman Mode is to be released in:
Postponed until February

New challenge for me, would of been nice too see some sort of looting bag thingy too store things in unless you can, as an inventory might get full quite quick but this sounds good :)

I do believe the space of your inventory as main limitation is the very essence of UIM :P

Good luck ;)

Looting bag is a essential to UIM mode. So that needs to be added or UIM is a waste of time. Just not enough invy space to do this.

I do agree with above, if it works on OSRS then you can't really guarantee it'll work here without the same limitations, and on a mode fixed on limitations, not having a looting bag really changes things which can make it worthwhile or not.

I did say a looting bag but then again? I'd prefer it too be hard after Mike saying there is not one. Only having an inventory would be harder but...would be a good challenge
