RuneScape is a fantasy massively multiplayer online role-playing game released in 2001. It is a free-to-play game developed and published by Jagex. Runescape still receives updates after nearly 20 years, and in this update, the Ninja Team is back to introduce the Scattershot.
In this update, the Ninjas have added new tooltips or more details to the existing tooltips of several combat items. These should help new players understand more about the items, which should make learning smoother.
For bug fixes, the Ninjas have fixed an issue where the abilities tooltips were displayed incorrectly. This issue was found to be affected by the perk effects of a Dinosaur Farm Animal.

General QoL and Ninja Bug Fixes
- Interacting with Manifested Knowledge while skilling will no longer interrupt the skilling action.

- Replaced an old version of weapon poison drops on various NPCs with the correct version of weapon poison.
- Prevented the ability to set an auto-fire rate for the Kal'gerion Demon Familiar's special attack, as it couldn't actually be auto-fired, to begin with.

UI
- Updated the Abyssal Whip's special attack description, as it was inconsistent with how the special attack actually works.
