Random’s, Evil Tree’s, Price checking and Questing!
After the delayed updates, we received no updates last week, however, this week they have flooded in: These updates include:
Changes to the Random Events system Price checking! Quest List sorting Evil Tree Soul Wars changes
All of which will be discussed in this post, and reviewed!
Random event System changes
JaGeX have decided to finally change the way our random’s work, so now you will never be thinking “I haven’t had this event in a while.” They have made it so you frequently get different and wider range of events.
Some of the random events have been ‘retired’ though. Some such as the Drunken Dwarf, Dr Jekyll/Hide and several others.
Now, instead of getting a default prize from your random event, you will get an option! These gift boxes will ‘Gift boxes will always contain a selection of coins, runes, coal, essence, ore, bars, gems, herbs, seeds, and charms for you to choose from.’ This is a very good idea in my opinion! I have had the opportunity to try this once so far, and i must say, i am must more pleased with the way the prizes are now distributed!

Price Checking
This update is incredibly useful! Not only can it tell you the price of the amount of logs you’ve cut that day, or the price of all the things you PK’ed, but (if you are patient) it can tell you the price of
your bank!
This system is so helpful, I’m not going into detail, you can imagine how many times you’ve wondered what something costs without going to the Grand Exchange and having to sit there for 5 minutes going "Price Check!”. That’s all in the past! Now just go to the equip screen, click on the money bag, and your away!

Quest List Sorting
Handy little tool this:
Quests and Achievement diary tabs at the top as usual, then press “Filter” and it removes the quests in the list that you do not have the correct levels for! Press reverse and members quests come first.
Members have more filter options (well, more quests) I can see this being very useful for members. Members filter options include: free/members, progress and difficulty
A member told me: ‘I LOVE this, its so helpful to know what quest to do next ‘

Evil Tree and Soul Wars Updates
This new “Diversions and distractions” event is useful for the naturalists – Farmers, Woodcutters and firemakers. Ranging from a normal tree to elder it increases in difficulty to chop/burn/nurture. Be sure to keep an eye open for these beasts!
Many updates have been made to Soul Wars this week to balance the games mostly, but also to improve rewards, make it harder and such.
In summary, a good week for updates! Hopefully more useful tools such as Quest sorting, and Price checking will be on its way next time!

I didn’t get any randoms but i’ve used the quest filter and im loving it… Im questing as we speak!
You’re welcome, James…
I decided to let you do the latest update.
coool
that is so sweet! thanks for the update posts, i still wanna see if my post will go through on the forums. i would like to see my friends lite up as a green dot on the world map instead along with the scrolling one
where is the evil tree?
I have gotten a chance to try these and they come in really helpful. Now when I get a random event I think it is more than a waste of my time.
