Last Man Standing

Bottled Dragon Breath has been changed to Dragon's tear to not confuse players with the in-game item Bottled Dragonbreath.

Additional information on prayer points with amulet of avarice.

Additional information on the unskulling scroll in PvP worlds.

Clarification on emotes that can be used in the taunt animation.

Magic Cape perk token has now been reworked and clarified.

Potions had to be created - ones that work off the boosted stats instead of base stats like potions normally do. This meant creating the boosts on the LMS potions to essentially be flat boosts rather than % based. This one had a lot of back and forth going through making sure it worked with all the new systems. Mod Maz did a good job to get it working.

LMS has never had a timer which ticks up stats each minute, because this also had to work off boosted stats rather than base. Maz had to create a whole new stat restore system, which was by no means a small feat.

Beta systems had to be modified to handle the new minigame and only have it on those worlds.

Modifications to the entry system and the various game modes were needed.

Line-of-sight was not adequate for the PvP focus of the minigame.

An all new system to allow players to plan and predetermine their inventory and gear loadouts was required, which Mod Ash has done an amazing job with.

Starting Equipment and Loadouts Starting Equipment and Loadouts



Players now have the ability to customize their loadouts before starting a game. This can be done via the supply chest outside the lobby. It will highlight items in red if the loadout contains an illegal quantity of an item such as having more than 2 karambwans.





Looting System Looting System

Players will no longer receive loot from locations such as drawers and cupboards - only chests. These chests will now require a bloody key to be opened, which are still dropped when you kill an opponent. When looting a chest this way, your loot rolls once on an offensive loot table and once on a defensive loot table: Offensive: Dragon claws

Armadyl godsword

Armadyl crossbow

Staff of the Dead

Granite maul

Dark bow with Dragon arrows

Infernal cape

Mage's book

Seers ring (i)

Elder maul

Kodai wand

Ghrazi rapier

Occult Necklace

Heavy ballista with Dragon javelins Defensive: Ahrim's robetop

Ahrim's robeskirt

Karil's leathertop

Dharok's platelegs

Torag's platelegs

Verac's plateskirt

Dharok's helm

Guthan's helm

Torag's helm

Verac's helm

Amulet of fury

Blessed spirit shield

Eternal boots

Bandos tassets If a player is in the final five survivors, they'll start to receive bloodier keys as a drop. These roll on the same defensive loot table as the standard bloody keys, but also roll on an upgraded version of the Offensive loot table which contains the following: Zuriel's staff

Morrigan's javelins

Vesta's longsword

Statius's warhammer Loot crates will still appear on the map as before, but now roll on the upgraded offensive loot table.

Point System Point System



Players can now accrue points while participating in competitive Last Man Standing games. These points can be used in the Rewards Shop by speaking to Justine to unlock certain rewards as outlined in the rewards section.



This will be the point system for Last Man Standing: Players placing between 20 and 24 will receive 0 points

Players placing between 10 and 19 will receive 1 point

Players placing between 5 and 9 will receive 2 points

Players placing 3rd and 4th will each receive 3 points

The player placing 2nd will receive 4 points

The player placing 1st will receive 5 whole points There will be bonus points available based on the number of kills in a single game. Any player who gets 3 kills in a game will receive 1 bonus point

Any player who gets 5 or more kills will receive 2 bonus points The bonus points do not stack with each-other. At the end of the round the player will be awarded the points based on their finishing position and any additional bonus points they are eligible for.





Rewards Rewards Trouver Parchment



This consumable scroll, when taken to Perdu, will offer to enchant one of the items he would normally repair for a fee. This enchantment will enable the player to take that item above 20 wilderness and not have it destroyed on death. Should the player die within that section of the wilderness, the item will lose the enchantment. This will occur even if the death is a PvM death. If the player is PKed while using these items. 75% of the fee will be dropped to the floor for the PKer as coins.



Instead of being destroyed on death, the items will lose their "locked" (l) status.



Each scroll would enchant one item and the enchantment would last until the player dies with the item. The person who kills a player that holds an item with this protection will receive 75% of the GP cost dropped as part of the kill.



This is to widen the items used in the whole of the wilderness and bring more variety whilst increasing the amount that players are risking. Because players will no longer have to go get these items again with an annoying grind (defender, void etc), you're more likely to see them appear.



The cost of each trouver parchment is 50 points.



Swift Blade



This weapon will attack every 3 cycles and be one handed. It has no stats, similar to the Ham Joint. This will cost 350 points.



Guthixian Icon/Staff of Balance



Players will be able to purchase the Guthixian icon and hand it in to Juna, who will infuse it into a Staff of the Dead, creating the Staff of Balance.



The Staff of Balance will carry the same stats as both the Staff of Light and Staff of the Dead, whilst also being allowed to cast/autocast Claws of Guthix. The cost of the icon is 500 points.



Deadman Cosmetic Armour



Originally the armour that came from Deadman mode, this armour has no stats. It consists of the chest, legs, and cape. Each piece will cost 160 points.



Halos



The Reward Shop now offers 5 new halos: Armadyl, Bandos, Seren, Ancient, and Brassica. These have the same stats as the existing halos. Players can now store these halos in the POH costume room. This will also apply to existing Castle Wars halos with an updated ability to add the decorative ranged and magic armour sets to the armour case. The cost of each halo is 450 points.



Upgradeable Cosmetic Capes



LMS will have tiered capes that players can claim from the Last Man Standing Reward Shop. These capes will change based on the number of competitive wins that player has accrued inside the minigame and can be stored in the POH costume room. The tiers are: Tier 1: 1 Win

Tier 2: 10 Wins

Tier 3: 50 Wins

Tier 4: 100 Wins

Tier 5: 500 Wins

New Rewards for Polling

New Rewards to be Polled Tradeable Imbue Scrolls





Combat ring imbues exist in-game as rewards from the Nightmare Zone minigame. We would like to offer the ability to purchase ring imbue scrolls from the LMS Reward Shop that allow you to imbue combat rings as an alternative to the Nightmare Zone minigame.

Level 33 Wilderness Teleport Tablets





Currently players who want to access Callisto, Venenatis, and the multi-way combat area that surrounds them must either teleport to Annakarl, come from the Corporal Beast cave or run all the way through the Wilderness from the lumberyard.

The teleport location is represented by the green circle on the above picture.

Players will be able to purchase a dragon's tear from the LMS Reward Shop and use it on a Staff of the Dead to engulf the staff in flames and create the Dragonfire staff. This process is not reversible. The Dragonfire staff will have the same stats and requirements as the Staff of the Dead but it will include a special attack that fires a magical fire ball at your opponent hitting similar to a ballista spec.

This tradeable set will offer one unique effect when all pieces are worn together. The set effect "Thammaronís Fury" applies an additional 50% Magic accuracy and 12.5% Magic damage boost when attacking any NPCs in the Wilderness. This set will require 60 Magic to equip and will stack with the Thammaron's sceptre.

It's been a few weeks now since Song of the Elves launched, so the standard login screen has returned.

Captain Barnaby's right-click options now let you choose a destination directly, rather than opening another menu first. His dialogue also specifies prices more accurately up front before you make your choice.

The inactivity timer in the Grotesque Guardians' room has been adjusted to give you a couple more minutes before it hoofs you out.

The Lumbridge banker's in-game model now has the same hairstyle as her chathead.

The permanent Deadman world now gives fake XP drops in instanced areas like the seasonal worlds used to do.

Some grammar has been corrected on a house furniture creation menu.

The algorithm that calculates line-of-sight to be symmetrical has now been applied to PvP only, as tested by the community on the beta worlds over the last weeks. This means that if a player has line-of-sight to range/mage their target, their target will also have line-of-sight to return fire. This does not apply to PvM.

On May 13th we put out a development blog regarding the state of PvP in Old School. Within this blog there was a section about the revamping of Last Man Standing.After numerous betas, line-of-sight-changes, and a rewards poll, today's game update brings you the launch of the revamped Last Man Standing.Here are some words from Mod Roq, the person who helped make the Last Man Standing Revival become a reality:"It doesn't feel like itís been as long as it has but taking on the project of Last Man Standing back in mid-April has been the best experience in my 3+ years at Jagex. It feels a little surreal that I've gone from being the QA on the original release of LMS, migrated over to doing development on it, and eventually become the lead designer, vision holder, and project manager of it. I've not had to manage a project like this before. I was thrown in at the deep end. Project managers must act as the focal point for everyone to go to when they have questions, get people together for discussions, organise the work that needs doing so people can do it, and keep everything running smoothly. Whilst doing this I also had to maintain my role as a QA analyst on the week to week releases. Thankfully the systems within the Old School team allow me to juggle both things and keep everything running smoothly.After taking what I expected to be a small project in the middle of April, I thought it would be a simple gear change and away it goes but that was not the case. On top of the equipment changes the following had to be changed as well:Would I change the experience in any way? Definitely not. Iím happy and proud of how far the project has come, and itís not over. Last Man Standing can expand and become bigger, whether thatís new maps, new game modes, competitive events - who knows? I hope that people enjoy the content and am thankful for everyone thatís participated in the beta tests and given feedback and reward ideas, as well as all the people that have supported me either via social media or by bringing the project into the game. This isnít the end for me, itís only the beginning."On August 16th we put out a poll for Last Man Standing Rewards. While players accepted some of the rewards we offered, we'd like the minigame to have more, and we've seen plenty of appetite for that from the community too, with plenty of suggestions submitted for what else we could offer. So we've opened up the minigame again for real, rather than just as a beta, so that you can earn the existing rewards and save up points for more, while we run another poll for additional rewards. Since the Warding skill did not pass, we thought LMS may be a good place to put some of the highly voted on armour and item suggestions. We have also taken on new rewards suggested by the community. We will poll the below rewards fromto. Any changes to these poll questions and rewards will be reflected in a changelog that can be viewed at the top of this blog.We would like to take this time to thank everyone who brought forward ideas for LMS Rewards. There were over 100 reward suggestions, so many in fact that we ended up putting some in the backlog because the team loved it but thought it might be more useful for other content in the future. We pride ourselves on being community driven and having players come together to help design new rewards for the LMS Reward Shop is something we could not just ignore.If you run into any bugs, please ensure the bug occurs on the official client and then submit a bug report by right clicking or long pressing the in-game report button at the bottom of the chat box and selecting "Report game bug".
