    Game Status Information Centre

    Jagex opened a manually updated status page listing live issues and scheduled work. It currently carries connection problems affecting world hopping, and upstream maintenance running city by city from 29 August to 24 September.

    • —Connection problems affecting various worlds and world hopping are still under investigation.
    • —Upstream maintenance runs city by city from 29 August to 24 September.
    • —Twelve September is the heavy day: seven cities, from Frankfurt at 00:00 UTC to Osaka at 13:00.
    • —Jagex updates the page by hand and says it may lag in evenings and at weekends.

    For your guild
    The maintenance table is per city with times, so a clan spread across regions can tell whose ping suffers and when. The twelfth is the heavy day. Jagex updates the page by hand and says it may lag evenings and weekends, so treat it as a planning aid.

    Summer Sweep Up Miscellaneous

    Four elemental amulets craftable from new Slayer drops give +10 Magic accuracy and +2 max hit to their spell, and combining all four covers every elemental spell. Unsireds now stack, and dying in Chambers of Xeric no longer resets the Surge potion cooldown.

    For your guild
    The Chambers fix removes a punishment that compounded a team wipe, so raid teams can stop planning around it. Permanent Deadman now demands 100,000 GP of risk to attack anyone and a million to enter raid areas.

    Menu Entry Swapper Overhaul - Live Now!

    Jagex rewrote the menu system from the ground up. Menus are now organised per subject, entries can be hidden individually or promoted out of submenus, and tall menus scroll by swipe on mobile.

    For your guild
    Settings are stored per device and some walk-here customisations do not survive the migration, so anyone playing one account on phone and desktop has two setups to redo. Third party clients are unaffected.

Issue No. 5 · Week of August 24, 2026
  • Jagex

    Mad Angel Combat Achievements

    Nine Mad Angel combat achievements arrive, from a 25 kill count to an elite no-weapon clear. Courier tasks now pay Loot Sacks in five tiers, with each port carrying its own themed supply drop, and group storage chests work for Group Ironmen again.

    For your guild
    Group storage chests had been refusing Group Ironmen with a misleading Deadman message, and that is fixed, which unblocks a team that had been working around it. The achievements themselves are solo work a clan can track as a shared board.
