It’s Valentine’s Day. A time to give your soulmate gifts and spend time together! It’s also a time to decorate your vehicles with a love themed decal and decorations. Just like previous years, we’ve prepared a Valentine’s decal and the opportunity to purchase a trophy with decorations, plus a rare Valentine tank temporarily returns!

Get yourself this love-themed decal by completing the following task.


“Heart of Roses” decal




A trophy with themed decorations is available to purchase in the in-game Item Shop for 499 Golden Eagles. This trophy includes the “Love Anchor” ship decoration, plus the “Bear with a Heart” and “Compound Bow” decorations for ground vehicles. When opening it, you’ll receive a decoration that you don’t yet have.




For 1,000 Golden Eagles, you can get this rare tank this Valentine’s Day.

• The MK-IX “Valentine” is a British Valentine IX tank that was delivered to the Soviet Union under Lend-Lease. It’s sluggish and slow, but durable and accurate — a good sniper! A quick reload and a low profile allows it to effectively use cover for long-range shots.

Hello, I'm Ferry, Ollie, and I'm making the Defenden.
We are developing it by referring to the steam discussion room, reviews, and reviews posted on other websites.

About half a year after the release of Early Access, we switched to the official release of Defenden with the Bosrush mode update on 2024.02.14.
Thank you to everyone who was interested in and supported us, and I hope you look forward to the continued improvement and fun of the Defenden.

Thank you so much for your reviews, feedbacks, and bug reports
Thank you always for enjoying Defenden.

Hi all,

In the previous update, achievements got disabled by mistake on export, so this update fixes that. If you believe you unlocked achievements between February 9-14 but didn't receive them, they should now appear the next time you open the game in Steam.

There are also a couple of typo and UI fixes in 1.1.2.5.

Thanks again for bringing these to my attention! :)

White horses are a thing of the past, real heroes travel on gray wolves! Tame this unique beast, and it will help you catch up with a nimble enemy, avoid danger and quickly get from one end of the world to the other.

It will not be easy to make friends with him - The tireless pursuer is distrustful and will not follow the first person he meets. But if you have the heart of a hero, then he will feel it and everything will definitely work out!

Find the chest of the tireless pursuer in the game store.

Just give him your hand. Just be careful.

We’re going wild this week with improvements to Barbarian Training, Forestry, and more!

---

[expand type=show more]
Barbarian Training Improvements

• Barbarian Training is now officially a Miniquest!
• Added Barbarian Farming, which allows players to plant seeds without a Seed Dibber and automatically destroy Plant Pots when planting trees.
• Players who have participated any previous sections will have those parts of the miniquest automatically completed.

Forestry Tweaks and Changes

• Removed all event items from Forestry.
• Event items in Forestry Kits and Banks will be automatically converted to GP.
• Event items in Group Ironman Storage will convert to GP when opening the Storage post-update.
• Any related offers on the Grand Exchange will be cancelled. GP will still be available to collect.
• Removed references to the aforementioned items from the Grand Exchange and the Skill Guide.
• Players now have a random chance to encounter events they’re eligible for based on the following algorithm:
• The game tracks the last two trees chopped. If an event spawns within 20 tiles of one of those trees, players are eligible for full rewards.
• Logging out resets tracked trees.
• Players may still join events they are ineligible for but will receive only 1 Woodcutting XP per event action and no Anima Bark. They are ineligible to receive uniques from the event.
• A chat message will warn players if they are ineligible for event rewards.
• At least one player chopping a tree must have a Forestry Kit for events to start spawning.
• Raised drop rates for Forestry uniques.
• The bonus chance on the Twitcher’s Gloves has increased from 10% to 20%.
• Twitcher’s Gloves no longer require charges and are a one-time purchase.
• Accordingly, the price of Twitcher’s Gloves has been raised.
• Players with existing Twitcher’s Gloves will have their purchases refunded.

Wilderness Changes

• The fee paid for accessing the Wilderness Bosses caves (Callisto, Vet'ion, Venenatis, Artio, Calvar'ion & Spindel) is now only in danger of being lost, if the player pays the fee and dies before having left the Wilderness. If the player leaves the Wilderness after paying the fee and returns to another piece of Wilderness content like Scorpia or Rogues' chests, their fee will not be lost on death.
• Loot from Rogues’ Chests will now be automatically stored in open Looting Bags.
• The Ring of Wealth (i) now doubles the chance to obtain a Hard Clue Scroll from Rogues’ Chests, in line with its behaviour elsewhere in the Wilderness.
• Players who already have a Hard Clue Scroll will obtain a 2-Dose Prayer Potion from this roll.

Other Changes

• (OFFICIAL CLIENT / MOBILE ONLY) Made improvements to the Loot Tracker and Ground Item Overlay features.
• Added a toggle to break down loot gained from different events separately.
• Added a toggle for untradeable items in the Ground Item Overlay options.
• Bank Keys (from PvP deaths) are now tracked via the Loot Tracker.
• Items in the Loot Tracker now include links to the OSRS Wiki.
• Sanity is now set to max when teleporting away from The Whisperer.
• Teleblock spells no longer apply the 10 second logout prevention effect to the caster, only to the target.
• Scavengers now drop extra Planks.
• Scurrius’ Antique Lamps now ask players to confirm their choice of skill if it seems unusual.
• The balancing log near the Coal Trucks can now be used by more than one player at a time.
• Trader Stan and his colleagues will now clarify that their ships can visit a wider range of destinations than those they've mentioned.
• The short-bearded Mystery Figure who's supposed to be observing the Champions' Arena no longer faces away from it.
• A new plant in Varrock Castle prevents people phasing through a certain wall.

PvP Rota

The PvP rota has moved to Period B:

• 560 - (UK) - PvP World

Love is in the air, and so is pottery of dust, as we travel north of Kandarin and engage in some Barbarian Training.

One of our previous Game Jam projects saw a rework for this beloved content, and today, it’s ready to launch!

The first change you’ll notice is that Barbarian Training is now a Miniquest and has had tons of improvements in-line with this fancy new title. This includes an overview of dialogue, reworked progression, and a little added polish. Players who have participated any previous sections will have those parts of the miniquest automatically completed.

We also wanted to add something extra so that those who’ve already completed Otto’s training can gain a little more from this update. You’ll now have the option to try a fourth lesson and learn the ways of Barbarian Farming. This hands-on approach to planting crops lets you plant seeds without a Seed Dibber and destroy Plant Pots after planting trees. We think that sounds… smashing.

So, if you’re feeling adventurous this Valentine’s Day, head north of Baxtorian Falls and say hello to Otto. It’ll make his week!

This week also sees the launch of some big changes to Forestry, as promised in a previous blog.

To reiterate, this is not Forestry: Part Three. We’re simply taking the opportunity to address some longstanding player feedback and improve the content overall.

The root of the problem was event items. These useful bits and bobs gave players some measure of control over which events spawned around them – but like a lot of the content we cut from Forestry, players also felt it was a bit too much management for a skill that used to be ‘chop wood, get logs’.

So our first change is to remove all the event items from the game. Now, all you need to participate is a Forestry Kit and an Axe!

Existing items have automatically been removed from Banks and Forestry Kit and exchanged for GP. Items in Group Ironman Storage will be similarly converted the next time a group member opens it. Any offers on the Grand Exchange have been cancelled with GP available to collect. Lastly, all references to these items have been removed from both the Grand Exchange and the Skill Guide.

As of today’s update, events spawn according to a new algorithm. The game tracks the last two trees you chopped within a short space of time – note that that’s chops, not Logs, so don’t worry if you’re running dry! Logging out will reset your tracked trees.

If an event spawns within a set radius of those two trees, within three minutes of your last chop, you’ll be eligible to get all the rewards from participating in that event!

This means that you’ll get the full amount of XP, Anima-Infused Bark, and rolls on the unique loot table for that event – so it’s well worth sticking around to make the most of your Woodcutting training!

If you’re not eligible to participate, you’ll still get 1 Woodcutting XP per event action, although you won’t be able to obtain Anima-Infused Bark or the event uniques. Don’t worry – you’ll receive a chat message if you’re not eligible.

We reckon this will make Forestry events a bit more rewarding – and in line with that thesis, we’re also increasing the drop rates for all the event uniques, in line with Woodcutting level.

Lastly, we’re also removing charges from the Twitcher’s Gloves. As of today, they’re a one-time purchase from the Forestry Shop. Any extra pairs you have lying around will be fully refunded after today’s update. As a little extra ‘tweet’, we’ve also increased the bonus chance from 10% to 20%.

With that, we’ve reached the end of our Forestry adventure! We’ll be carefully tending to these changes to make sure the content is in a good place. Meanwhile, we’d like to thank you all for your feedback, and hope that you’ll keep frolicking through Gielinor’s forests for years to come!
