Currently when you log in, you have no idea if anyone has the avatar out on a particular world unless you ask in the clan chat if someone has it summoned.

What I suggest is message on login which states whether or not there is an avatar summoned and if so, what world it is on. Something similar to the message we already receive when the avatar is summoned:


"' Steel Dragon ' currently has the clan avatar summoned with the buff: Skilling Bonus on: ' World 83 '"


With a message like that, you can see who has the avatar and what world it is on so you can hop to that world to enjoy the benefits of the avatar.

Support, but like any cool suggestion on these forums I expect a Jmod to come along and say it isn't possible due to technical limits.

Seeing as you already get a message when it is summoned. I think it is most definitely possible to add a message when someone logs in

I could tell you if it was on YOUR world. But I have no way to run cross server code to find out if it's on another world.
Also, it wouldn't be exactly on login, but when clan data came in.... Mod Maz

Although having the world would be nice. Just having a message stating who has the avatar out would be good enough.

Asked my clan what they would think. Some said it wouldn't make the slightest difference, some said it would be a nice addition. If this could be done then I do have one suggestion;
-Have it appear in game messages 'On' but not visible in 'Filtered'.

The fact that you get an aura around your feet when the avatar is out, cover the part that it is on your world. Who has it , and what buff it has, would be good to know through text, though. So support.

Would it be possible and easier to get the information to show up on either in the clan info or possibly on a display on our clan pages instead?

I wouldnt personally commit to doing it only to an individuals world only as it wouldnt really make much difference.

The clan system knows who has the avatar once it is summoned, so how about an icon that appears next to their name in the clan chat tab showing that they have the avatar? The icon will remain next to their name until they dismiss the avatar, at which point, the icon will disappear?
