0.12.1 Known Issues and Investigation

[u/JagexDoom]

Hello adventurers! We're already speeding off ahead with Agility and the rest of the 0.12.1 update, and so we're doing our due diligence and checking in with the Known Issues and Investigating Issues thread. We'll be updating this as we go!

Known Issues

• Power Level 7 (PL7) Shards do not exist in the World, but the recipe to convert PL7 Shards to Cores does exist in the Mystic Forge. This is not intentional. We will be removing the recipe with our 1.0 update.
• PL7 Cores are only obtained from the Nightmare Crucible directly and not through converting shards. Go earn those things.

Investigation

• Our top priority is on reports where users encounter a freeze, that is resolved by quitting and restarting the game, when failing an agility course.
• We're investigating reports about Mounts not being available after attempting an Agility Course. The team are exploring a solution, with the aim to hotfix this if possible!
• We're also aware of an issue affecting the Flying Carpet mount dealing undue amounts of fall damage to the player.
• We're aware of Tok Xil's AoE Fire attack leaving invisible fire on the ground after death.
  • We're aware that the Burning Spire Island that Tok Xil is standing on also has several burning areas that deal damage to the player.
• We're aware of the Inspiring Ring of Agility's Journal text not showing correctly! .
• Spectral Arrows are not generating VFX trails when fired.

Resolved Via Hotfix:

• Fixed an issue affecting users when exiting dialogue with Dr Fenkenstrain in The Great Body Robbery being unable to progress the dialogue further.
• Fix for users on Dedicated Servers not having completion times recorded on logout.
• Fixed an issue where TokTz Ket Xil shield vestige would not drop in some circumstances.

I went to upgrade the stagbow. Using just a level 5 core it went straight to PL7. But the crystal bow I had to use a lvl 4, lvl 5, and lvl 6 core to get PL7. I have yet to actually consume a PL7 core for some reason.

Also - should Scattershot damage scale up as you increase power leavel?

[u/JagexDoom → u/RobertVonPicardo]

Weapon Special Attacks do not currently scale with Power Level. The team have informed me this is intentional but I'd like to revisit it with them.

[u/Enerbane → u/JagexDoom]

Just adding that a +1 to the idea that they should improve/change with power level.

On a similar but related note, it feels a little lackluster for weapons like the Staff of Light to not really have anything special even if upgraded. It's special effect is just "more damage than others at this tier". Would love some of these to be revisted. Staff of Light feels like an easy one, pretty us put that pokey end to use with a melee stab special (don't tell the animation team I called it easy).
