Mod Light

Let us know how you feel about these changes or if you have any further thoughts, have a good weekend ♥

We're looking to rebalance some small tanky creatures (like birds) by lowering HP (and XP/drop rates potentially). There was also unfortunately a bug in code that wasn’t accounted for, making player damage lower than what we theorised. We’re working on a fix. (2/2)

Hey! On our Q&A livestream, we discussed some of the recent feedback on our update. Here's the link to the stream on YouTube if you want to watch it back: youtube.com/live/Hc9SbKLvu…

Thank you SO much for all of the feedback you've shared with me on how this update is feeling so far. Check out our latest newspost update to learn more about how we're planning to address some of the areas you've highlighted. Also, let me know what to ask on our Q&A tomorrow!

@TeslaTater I'll ensure this feedback is passed on, thank you

@JagexLight Less multi combat or non agro NPCs. Getting piled by 7 or 8 krakens at a time is ridiculous.

These changes are going to really help boat combat feel better and smoother in the long term. As always, I'm very keen to hear feedback on how it feels when you get to try it. I'm also hoping to share plans for our next round of combat updates, including NPC boats very soon!

@ianspam Not right now, but this update is making boat combat feel stronger for all future updates. I can't make decisions on what projects we work on & when (that's a much higher level decision) but I do think that the work is bringing us a little closer to it on a technical level.

@JagexLight Is PvP / piracy still on the cards for the future? 🏴‍☠️

@viaxtina yes ma'am!!

@JagexLight NPC boats 👀 get some pirate missions in and incorporate ship combat 👀

@saxerpillar @OldSchoolRS We explained a bit more in the newspost update, but essentially the goal was to maintain the feeling that planning your boat layout is still important, so we didn't want to trivialise facilities too much.

@OldSchoolRS Not that I care personally but why does moving facilities around cost anything at all?

We're working on changes following your feedback. 👉 Moving your facilities shouldn't be frustrating. Facility Bottles will be purchasable from Shipwright Seb for 75,000 GP. Additionally, we'll be making them more common across salvaging spots and adding them to Merchant Shipwreck loot tables. 👉 The 'Empty Containers' button will also work with worn containers. We'll aim for these changes to release next week, pending testing. Find out more: osrs.game/FacilityBottle…

Have your say and help us out to improve Sailing even further in 2026! 🫶 It's really exciting to 'officialise' some of our feedback surveys in-game. Hopefully, we can reach much more people and get better data as a result to guide our decisions. Thanks everyone!

Let's goooo!!! Can't wait for the team to sift through all your ideas! Dream big! But ALSO within scope!

@SadGamingHours At your level, you should be looking to do tasks around Rellekka. You should try looking at doing tasks which require a longer distance as they award more XP. Have as many tasks as possible on the go as it'll increase your XP/Hr.

@JagexLight id be expecting at least double of whatever the AFK rates of salvaging give you for the same level, so at around 64 you can gain up to 32k exp/h salvaging pirate wrecks and its basically fully afkable, having to deliver something across the world map should reward at least

More hotfixes out today. As the release settles, I'm sure you guys will have more feedback on things we can focus on and what we can do to improve Sailing even further. Keep it coming!! We're reading through as many comments as we can, undoubtedly through the weekend too. 💙

@SadGamingHours Also what XP you're expecting*

@SadGamingHours Thanks, it would be good to know exactly how you're training Port Tasks, e.g if you're taking the maximum number of them available at your level. Plus what XP/hr you're getting and then receiving. Also, sea charting reward space unlocks rapids which can make routes faster.

@CrusRubrum Yes, it was last night! I can get it added to 'fixed issues'. Thanks!

@JagexLight Do you know if they've fixed the drop rate for squid beaks? I saw you say they shouldn't be as rare as they are currently presenting.

@Killtridge I just spoke to a dev about Jubbly Jive FPS issues, I don't know exactly what changes are in progress but it might be something we can investigate (e.g animations affecting FPS). Will try to follow up on this in a future newspost update when I hear more.

@JagexLight The FPS is awful at Jubbly Jive :( .

@Akiral_Spritz Is this all Barracuda Trials or any specific one? Some of them have animations which we're aware might cause FPS issues but I can pass on the mobile specific concerns too. Thanks.

@JagexLight Barracuda trials on mobile feels really bad right now because I can't see/find lost supplies due to screen/chunk limitations. Figuring out routes/pathing is very difficult for mobile players rn imo

@Copacetxc_ I can certainly ask, will have to be triaged and balanced against other things, so can't promise it, but the right devs will be aware.

@JagexLight Bestie can you make the bonecrusher ( and the necklace) work when harvesting on the boat? I dunno if it was coded or forgotten about 🙏
