Rework
: Shelves:
Shelves are reduced to four tiers and built in increments, since they do not offer a clear progression - for instance oak shelves 1 are broken and offer worse tea, than the lower levelled wooden shelves 3. The master constructor's outfit now offers an invisible boost, allowing tea to be used alongside with it.

Wooden - Level 6 - Plank x3, Nails x3 - Identical to existing wooden shelves 3, but only offers a clay tea cup
Oak - Level 23 - Wooden shelves, Oak plank x3, Soft clay x6 - Identical to existing oak shelves 2
Teak - Level 45 - Oak shelves, Teak plank x3 - Identical to existing teak shelves 2
Additonal tier
: Mahogany - Level 67 - Teak shelves, Mahogany plank x3, Gold leaf x2 - Provides unlimited amounts of kettles, teapots, crystal cups, empty beer glasses, cake tins, bowls, pie dishes, empty pots, jugs and chef's hats. Tea drunk from crystal cups offers a +4 construction boost, filled crystal cups also can be taken outside the POH, but are unbankable and dissolve upon drinking.

Existing shelves are replaced in the following way:

Wooden 1/2 -> Wooden
Wooden 3 / Oak 1 -> Oak
Oak 2 / Teak 1 -> Teak
Teak 2 -> Mahogany

The replacements and new progression ensure nobody would be losing anything compared to status quo.

Bedroom


+ The highest levelled dressers and wardrobes allow you to use any beard, haircut or piece of clothing available in one central location. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

Combat Room


+
NEW
: Combat dummy - 4 Tiers:
Built in increments. Works like the dummies found in places like the combat academy. Higher tiers are intended purely cosmetic for now, but could get additional features added in the future.

Wooden dummy - Level 40 - Plank x3, Nails x 15, Empty Sack, Rope, Bucket of Sand x2
Oak dummy - Level 48 - Wooden dummy, Oak plank x3, Bolt of Cloth x4
Teak dummy - Level 55 - Oak dummy, Teak plank x3, Gold leaf
Mahogany dummy - Level 62 - Teak dummy, Mahogany plank x3, Gold leaf x2

Quest Hall


+
Fix
: Cape of Legends Guild Trophy - Allow players to use it to teleport to the Legends Guild.

Study


+
Additional Tier
: Lectern

Marble lectern - Level 77 - Marble block, Magic stone, Gold leaf - Allows players to create any magic tablet and speeds up the process to create tablets to 2 ticks each.

+ Telescopes
Fix
: All telescopes now show the exact time remaining for shooting stars to land (since the information is available in the D&D tracker anyway). Higher levelled telescopes are more accurate with the landing locations instead.

Oak: General Vicinity (i.e. as it currently is)
Teak: One of three possible locations (or fewer if the general vicinty has fewer than 3 spots)
Mahogany: Exact location
Additional Tier
: Magic - Level 96 - Magic Stone, Molten Glass - Allows players to see the location of crashed, but still active stars in addition Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

Costume room

Fix
: Overall increase the amount of storable outfits for lower tiers. The intention is to to increase the value of the whole upgrade series (rather than just having the final one have value for most containers, while the remaining sequence is next to useless). Consider increasing the medium and higher tiers further once a significant amount of costumes has been released.
Fix
: Add more recently released items to the fitting containers.

+ Treasure chest

Teak: Hard rewards (Hard for Mahogany was adequate when only three/four tiers of clues existed - not five or potentially even six or seven)

Potential additions:

Beginner -> Oak
Grand Master -> Mahogany (or a new Elder chest tier - see below)

+ Armour case

Oak: 2->20
Teak: 4->50

+ Magic wardrobe

Oak: 1->3
Carved Oak: 2->5
Teak: 3->7
Carved Teak: 4->9
Mahogany: 5->12
Gilded: 6->15

+ Fancy dress box

Oak fancy dress box: 2->5
Teak fancy dress box: 4->12

+
NEW
: Weapon rack - 4 Tiers
Allows players to store and withdraw weapons of significance. Grants access from a bank once built. Tier increases the amount of storeable weapons.

Oak weapon rack - Level 52 - Oak plank x4 - Allows players to store 20 % of the weapons initially available
Teak weapon rack - Level 61 - Oak rack, Teak plank x4 - Allows players to store 50 % of the weapons initially available
Mahogany weapon rack - Level 71 - Teak rack, Mahogany plank x4 - Allows players to store 75 % of the weapons inititally available
Gilded weapon rack - Level 79 - Mahogany rack, Gold leaf x1 - Allows players to store all weapons

Chapel


+
Additional Tier
: Altar

Altar of War - Level 90, Unlocked with 1500 Boss kills at War's Retreat - Magic stone, Gold leaf x4 - Grants 250 % prayer experience for sacrifing bones and ashes, as well as all unlocked Altar of War benefits for praying. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

+
Additional Tier
: Centrepiece

Portal Nexus - Level 92 - Magic Stone x2, Marble Block x8, Gold leaf x4 - The Portal Nexus allows players to store every teleport for 100 times the rune costs and allows players to access them freely for teleportation and scrying afterwards. Teleports already added to portals are available within the Nexus and players can re-direct any added teleport for free to their portal frames as quick teleports useable without an interface.

Formal garden


+ The combat dummy is removed from the formal garden. If players got a combat room built, they'll receive a wooden dummy free of charge or else they'll get their plank used refunded.

+

II General QoL and fancier stuff


- Allow players to change placement and orientation of already built rooms.
- Demon and Monkey butlers now can be used to remotely access your bank (usual fees for the demon apply to each bank access). All other butlers are now able to store and retrieve items from a bank at the same time.
- New plank: Elder - Used in the POH from roughly level 60 and for construction contracts from level 80 onwards. Basic costs: 2500 gold pieces. Elder planks grant 210 xp per plank used. Construction contracts finished entirely with elder planks grant 7 contract credits each. Elder planks can be substituted with protean planks, but furniture is not available as flatpacks to encourage regular POH or contracts training, rather than using a portable workbench with proteans.
- New contract credits reward: Construction supply crate - Contains an assortment of planks, nails (any), bolts of cloth and limestone bricks. May rarely contain gold leafs. 35 Credits. Add a quick chat option for the amount of crates opened. Supply crates are not intended to fully cover expenses, but rather allow players to make use of credits after unlocking all features in order to reduce their costs.
- New contract credits reward: Big construction supply crate - Contains an assortment of planks, nails (mithril+), bolts of cloth and limestone bricks. May rarely contain gold leafs or ultra rarely marble blocks. 175 Credits - has the same amount of reward rolls compared to five regular boxes, but offers better nails and the slight chance to receive a marble block. Add a quick chat option for the amount of big crates opened.
- The gold costs for casting 'Plank make' are removed.
- The master constructor's outfit now offers an invisible boost stacking with the crystal saw and visible stat boosts (like tea or pulse cores). Furniture can now be built up to 13 levels, rooms and plants up to 10 levels earlier if all effects are used. Improvements: Tooltip / (F2P) QoL v2

+ Trivia List - Level 88 - Papyrus x10, Gold leaf

+ Achievement armour stand - Level 97 - Elder plank x8, Gold leaf - Allows players to display a finished set of Achievement armour in order to receive its passive effects without having to wear it. Players can retrieve their armour set at any given time. Note, that all pieces of the set need to be of the same tier, so lower levelled duplicates may need to be retrieved from the respective diary masters. If another area task list is released the armour stands keeps storing the mounted armour, but becomes disfunct until the missing piece of equipment is added to it.

---

It's a bit much stuff for now, but I think there are quite a few things you could like as they stand. And except for a couple of cosmetic only rooms (or hotspots - I mean, if some hotspot could be given purpose - sure - telescopes also were just cosmetic before they were included in shooting stars for instance), basically everything has a purpose - so we actually could go crazy with level 100+ stuff.

Formal Garden Centerpiece: Magic Lamppost
Appearance: Shaped like a giant crystalline lamppost

Functions:
- lets you know what clans the current Voice of Seren effect is on
- notifies you of the current location of an Evil Tree (won't teleport you)
- Monthly D&D of a genie granting you an XP lamp

Requirements to make:
- 10-16 Magic Stones
- Several Gold Leaves
- Several thousand Harmonic Dust
- 1 Spirit Tree Seed

The VoS notice is so if you're in your PoH, can you at least check up on it
The Evil Tree Function is to give synergy with the PoH Telescope
The Genie visiting gives you a medium or large prismatic lamp as "rent" for letting it stay in the really posh lamp you built
