Could I get some clarification on the following:

- Zalcano's reward calculations have now been improved.

Does this mean the rewards are nerfed in general?
Or does this mean more effort = more rewards than before?

And what about the pet drop? Is a MVP still needed to make a chance on this?

Hello,

The iron ores in the tharaearn mine have a longer respawn time than normal iron rocks, was this intended? It could be the best place to mine iron and bank it but now the mining guild is still faster.

Hi there! We are planning to update the newspost to clarify Zalcano reward improvements. Be on the look out in a few minutes :)

Are you using the crystal pickaxe by any chance? I did pass this on to QA and they said the respawn wasn't made longer for iron in there but that the invisible boost from the crystal pickaxe could make it seem like it was slower in respawning due to mining it faster.

Thanks for changing the inconsistancy with the gauntlet. Always frustrating to "guess" what the first attack was going to be. Also I feel it's a good change to punish wrong prayer usage more and reward correct use more.

XD that will teach the people using multiple accounts to fight the bunny

and the changes to the smithing/rc boss seem promising
on side note: can we remove the 1.5 ticking from Zalcano

i know its click intensive and what but seems unfair as they use it to do damage faster could you imagine if other bosses used this mechanic?

propose only made potions/tools/armor can be brought into boss room
removing all other skilling items or just disabling use inside room for a pure action cancel like walking away that belong to other skills

I used a rune pickaxe. I just second checked the spawn at the mining guild and the ores respawn about double as fast. It seems the rocks at tharaearn mine are bugged.

I really hope this will be changed :)

The wiki page states that iron should respawn in 5.4 seconds, the rocks in trahaearn mine take around 7 seconds.
