Today's update brings in some minor fixes to the last update, courtesy of @Brant

Updates:

• Mystic smoke staff now gives the proper 10% boost for standard spell book: viewtopic.php?t=87935
• The newest box sets are now tradable on ge: viewtopic.php?t=88255
• Black cape now drops from all monsters that also drop the other capes: viewtopic.php?f=134&t=88163
• Fixes 2b attack cape model typo
• Other minor fixes

Along with the release of this update I will also take the opportunity to perform an OS upgrade on the hypervisor (= the machine on which everything runs). The main reason for the upgrade is that the latest OS / driver versions allow us to use more advanced techniques for DDoS mitigation, particularly without affecting legitimate traffic. You can think of this more or less like upgrading Windows 10 to WIndows 11. A lot of things can go wrong and may require manual fixing. As such I can't give you a precise estimate, but I expect the server will be down for 30-60 minutes.

While the server is down parts of the website will also be inoperative. Donations and vote rewards will not be processed, highscores will be down, user registration on the forums will be unavailable as well as UCP account linking. I strongly recommend not voting or donating during this period.

Thank you for your patience.

EDIT: Everything back online, upgrades went smoothly without a hitch.

As most of you know by now the server has been suffering ongoing DDoS attacks for the past 24h. This is almost certainly because RuneLocus has selected us as Server of the Week due to the vote store update, so one of the other top servers is paying a DDoS-for-hire service to make sure those new players don't go to us. There is also a ransom demand from the DDoS-for-hire guys but we don't think it would be a good idea to pay up, because the rival RSPS paying for the attacks will most likely just switch to another DDoS service.

We are doing what we can to establish a more permanent solution but for the time being the interruptions and downtime will continue. We apologize and will do our best to make up for it after the attacks are under control.

While we continue to work on our main projects, there were a host of updates related to the cache that we were sitting on, so without further ado:


New Vote Store Item:


Prices: Alongside the new items, Iron Man can now vote. There will be more items to come in the future!

New Item Sets

• Torva Set
• Pernix Set
• Virtus Set
• Armadyl Set
• Bandos Set
• Ancient Cere Set
• Overload Ingredients set (all extremes and clean torstol)
• Third Age Druidic Set
• Initiate Set (for those who have them)
• Proselyte Set (not obtainable yet)

Equipable Items
Every equipable item should now go to the correct slot and no longer glitch the character. Seeing as this is done via cache, there might be a couple of exceptions where things didn't get transferred over properly. If you find an item that gets messed up, please let me know.


Other Minor updates:

• All 2b capes have been visually improved, no more glitchy icons (this includes the npcs also)
• The music for Varrock is now the proper Garden track instead of Scape Santa.
• The Tzhaar track will now play within the fight caves
• The Inferno track will now play within the Inferno
• Boxing gloves now have their proper animations for attack, defence, idle, and walk
• Other misc changes under the hood that will help development time go down in the future.

Update 5/5/2025

• Fixes Druidic set prices
• Fishbowl and net now goes to the right slot
• New ornament items have had there stats fixed to match there non ornament items
• The ornament lava staff and steam staffs now have the proper runes
• Infernal cape has its texture back
• New armour sets are droppable now
• Soul cape now has its proper bonuses
• Null npcs should no longer show up
• Mithril spear (and its poison variants) was wrongly having 18 prayer bonus instead of strength bonus
• Vote points for ironman refresh in the store

It's that time of the year again! This month PkHonor celebrates its 17 year anniversary. No one knows the exact date it first went online, but we do know it was in May 2008 so we just celebrate for a whole month.

Double XP events every weekend

Good news, this year the month of May actually covers 5 weekends (we're adding June 1st to round it off) so you're geting 5 double XP events! As usual each of these events will last for 3 days, so you can take full advantage from Friday afternoon/evening all the way to Sunday evening.

Event schedule:

---

Additional +20% discount on all donations

This discount is additive, meaning that the regular discount now starts at 20% for donations of 500 credits or below and ends at 40% for donations of 10k credits or more (instead of 0-20%).

Ends in:

Warning: Due to the possibility of processing delays it is not recommended to make donations shortly before the end of the discount period, as this could lead to the discount event expiring before the donation is processed. If this does happen to anyone please send me a forum PM or contact staff.

Ultra-rare item sale

Hard to believe it's been almost 5 years since the last one, but I guess that means we are long overdue for another ultra-rare item sale. Gotta make sure PkHonor makes it to 18 years after all. The items, their prices and the exact moment of the sale will be announced in a few days.

First of all, Brant has received his developer rank today, congrats @Brant.

Second of all, thanks to @Rapsey's hard work, @Thoby and I can review and release updates now pretty easily. So that should be happening at a good pace going forwards.

With that being said, we are accepting applications for trial developers. There's no strict application format, just PM myself or Rapsey and we will look into it.

Thanks gamers
