Game Jam: PoH Improvements | February 26th




There’s no place like home… especially with these new PoH improvements!


Changelog February 26th


PoH Changes
Mounted heads can now be switched out and upgraded without removing the entire display. New house styles for Canifis and Civitas are available! Visit an Estate Agent near you to redecorate. Improved PoH animations including sitting, combat ring entry and exit, treasure and storage interactions, and new interactions for the Trailblazer Globe and League Hall. Expanded room capacity! You'll now get up to four more rooms than before, depending on your Construction level. As before, your room cap increases every six levels, across most of the skill. The PoH Bookcase is now alphabetized and fits onto a single menu page. The Beaver pet's dialogue in the Menagerie now functions correctly for all recoloured variants.
Royal Titans Range Defence
Clarified Royal Titans' Ranged Defence mechanics - Ranged Accuracy increases by 500% when Titans move away from melee range in stages 1 and 2. This also applies to the Stage 3 charge-up attack both during the charge-up itself and the actual pulses hitting the ground.
Client and Mobile Updates
Fixed an issue where the Kingdom Management UI displayed a solid white background on mobile.
Other Changes
Updated Combat Achievement notifications displayed on transparent Chatboxes to prioritize the 'Walk here' option instead of 'View task'. Added a revert option for the Emberlight, Purging Staff and Scorching Bow to allow players to convert them back into a Synapse. Any charges or infusions will be lost in the process. You will now have one tick to walk away before being venomed if you accidentally walk into a Cursed Baboon. Graceful now displays the percentage bonus boost to Run Energy restoration rate in the Equipment Stats menu. Echo Virtus robes are now recognized as a Zaros item in the God Wars Dungeon. Untradeable items that typically convert into another item on death now count towards the Bounty Hunter risk calculation used to represent the skull risk values in Daimon's Crater – including the Armadyl Godsword (Deadman), Berserker Ring (i), and Abyssal Dagger (BH). Fixed a rare issue with inaccurate broadcasts during GIM leader abdication. The right-click option on Matthias the Falconer is now more helpful for players whose falcons have despawned. The Robe of Elidinis has regained its gold colour when worn. Fixed a bug where on rare occasions Kwuarm patches would harvest Avantoe. Fixed an issue with loading friend's chat channel names where extra text could sometimes be included. Fixed numerous visibility issues where NPCs and objects become invisible in certain scenarios.
PvP Rota
The PvP rota has moved to Period B:
560 - (UK) - PvP World 319 - (US) - Bounty Hunter World 579 - (US) - High-Risk PvP World 561 - (UK) - Free-to-Play PvP World 580 - (US) - LMS Competitive
World 390 (AUS) for LMS Competitive has been de-activated with this rota.
World 569 (AUS) for Bounty Hunter has been de-activated with this rota.
The PvP Arena is using 'Max/Med' loadouts in Ranked Duels and Tournaments this week.



PoH Changes

Feeling house proud? It's time to dust off those hammers and give your humble above the glow-up it deserves. We've got a jam-packed update for your Player-Owned House this week, including some long-awaited QoL improvements, new styles, and more room for your rooms! Let's break it down.
Mounted Heads
“Heads up” trophy collectors, our J-Mods have cooked up a real treat for you this time! No longer must you suffer the indignity of tearing down an entire wall just to swap out your latest gruesome prize. With this update, you can now swap your mounted heads instantly, without needing to rebuild from scratch!



If you can’t see the image above, click here!
How it works:
While in building mode, click the 'Trophies' option on your mounted display to open the new Mounted Trophies menu. Then click on the stuffed heads in your Inventory to mount them. The stuffed head will be added to your trophies board, allowing you to instantly swap between them! Once a head has been mounted in your collection, you can display it on any eligible trophy stand across your house, even in multiple halls at once. You can still mount additional copies of the stuffed head in the future for Construction XP. Guests can now admire your entire trophy collection. Let's be honest, showing off is half the fun.

And yes, we've extended the feature to your Stuffed Fish display too. Why shouldn't you be able to switch between a big scary Shark and a nice peaceful Bass?
This even applies when you upgrade your display. While the usual level requirements for mounting heads remain unchanged, you can now swap your heads about freely if you have a higher-tier space built, but want to apply a lower-level trophy head.
Level 38 Construction: Teak Trophy Space unlocks Crawling Hand, Cockatrice, and Basilisk. Level 58 Construction: Mahogany Trophy Space displays Kurask, Abyssal Demon, and the classics above. Level 78 Construction: Gilded Trophy Space shows off King Black Dragon and Kalphite Queen, plus everything before. Level 82 Construction: Gilded Trophy Space now adds Vorkath and Alchemical Hydra, along with all the other grisly trophies.
This update is all about convenience, letting you refresh your display in seconds while keeping your prized trophies exactly where they belong. So get out there and start swapping those heads around!
New House Styles Available!
Tired of your Player-Owned House looking like every other building in the pocket dimension? We’ve got you covered with some brand-new house styles! Swing by your local Estate Agent to check out these fresh new themes.
The Canifis Style is perfect for hosting house parties under the full moon and comes with a dank swampy aesthetic. A-wooooo!

If you prefer a brighter, greener vibe, look no further than the Civitas Style. This truly ‘classic’ look is a perfect fit for those looking to party with the Pericans.

Updated Animations
As part of our ongoing visual refresh, we've also spruced up several animations to make furniture interactions smoother and more immersive. We showcased some of these in our previous blog, but here’s a refresher:
Sitting Animations
Both regular sitting and throne sitting have received a fresh animation update, making you look even more impressive as you take your rightful place on the throne!

Combat ring
Stepping into battle? The entry and exit animations for the Combat Ring have been reworked, making your grand entrances (and dramatic exits) better than ever.

Treasure and storage interactions
Opening and closing Chests, Display Cases, Wardrobes and boxes now looks much smoother, adding a touch of polish to your home storage.

Trailblazer Globe Enhancements
You can now spin and inspect the Trailblazer Globe. Whee!



If you can’t see the image above, click here!
Leagues Hall Inspect
We've also added new animations when inspecting the Leagues Hall, similar to those you may have noticed at the Varrock Museum. Classy!

More Room for Rooms!
Ever wished you could expand your mansion, but pesky room limits held you back? No longer! The room capacity has expanded! You'll now get up to four more rooms than before, depending on your Construction level. As before, your room cap increases every six levels, across most of the skill. Check out the image below to see just how many rooms you can now build!



If you can’t see the image above, click here!
Finally, just in case you needed more excuses to get your house in order:
The Bookcase is now alphabetized and fits onto a single menu page. The Beaver pet's dialogue in the Menagerie now functions correctly for all recoloured variants.
That’s all for this round of Player-owned House improvements! Whether you're a master builder or just someone who enjoys a good spinning globe, we hope these changes make your home cooler and more convenient. As always, let us know what you think!


Royal Titans Ranged Defence

We see you, DPS calculator divas. Some of you have been diving deep into the mines of the sacred Wiki, trying to figure out what exactly is going on with Royal Titans' Ranged Defence when they start moving away from melee range. So, before the tinfoil hats come out in full force, let’s break it down:
The moment a Royal Titan starts retreating from Melee range, it becomes far more vulnerable to Ranged attacks. While it's in this state, your Ranged Accuracy gets a whopping 500% boost - meaning your hits are going to land much more reliably. This effect lasts until the Titan turns around to re-engage in Melee combat, so keep those arrows flying while you have the advantage! The Accuracy buff also applies during the charge-up pulse attack in Stage 3, covering both the charging phase and the attack itself.
Hopefully this clears up any confusion!
