    Ninja Quickfire

    Question
    Answer
    ________
    Can you remove Cave Bugs from F2P slayer areas, since F2P can't kill them?
    Sure

    Can the Limpwurt Patch from the Spirit of Summer quest, in the Wilderness, get upgraded to a full Flower Patch after the quest?
    You might see that sooner than you think.

    Can you do something about monsters in the Stronghold of Security? The recent buff to their stats was too drastic.
    Yes we messed up their HP and we are looking at it.

    Can you let us keepsake a deathtouched dart?
    No

    Can you move the anti-poison totem to pocket slot as promised?
    On the Ninja Backlog

    Can you allow the barrows amulet to be used on Linza's tomb?
    No

    Can max Goebie reputation finally become a trimmed completionist requirement? It's been a year since it came out.
    Maybe

    Can the ninja backlog be more responsive to what we ask about on the developer Q&As?
    Yeah? But Kelpie doesn't want to publish it. But I (Timbo) wouldn't mind publishing the top 10-20 of our backlog.

    Can we get loot value on other bosses? (raids, QBD etc)
    Yes, we thought about it.

    Can you please remove the message for opening the dungeoneering tokens from elf thieving?
    Yes

    Can there be a clear option on fruit trees like calquats? Currently you have to chop it down and then dig it up.
    Yes

    Can there be a permanent option in message to not show up while removing trees from normal tree patches?
    Yes

    Can we have a better interface for remote farm like the one in 07? It's so clunky atm and difficult to find the other patches you need.
    Probably not

    Can you give the ability to note the adamant dragons' bar drops to the Elite Karamja gloves while being worn?
    Probably not

    Can you change spirit gems to be alchable?
    Yeah? If you want to throw away Nature Runes

    Can the boat-ride cutscene for the Fremmennik Isles of Jatiszo and Neitiznot be skipped?
    Yes

    Is it possible to update the map to show your gatestone locations (and group gatestone)
    Not possible

    Allow the player to teleport to their gatestone from the map (if the above could be done)
    No, but you can put it on your action bar.

    If possible, allow the map to show what keys are required for floors by replacing the ? on a locked room with the key required?
    No

    Can the boss room door let you leave as soon as the boss is dead, rather than waiting until you have no adrenaline left?
    Sure

    Can the Hexhunter bow be changed to a shortbow instead of a shieldbow.?
    Maybe, Probably. We need to look at the passive for it, but we want to make the bow great again.

    I feel like this fits in here:

    Mod Kelpie posted this on Reddit earlier on;
    Hello

    We apologise for the changes, but we are going to move the Invention Amnesty date back to the 25th July, after previously saying we were moving it forward to the 18th. We overlooked that Vic would still be in the game at that date, and upon lifting the amnesty we don’t want people immediately using a load of xp lamps from Vic’s store on the elite skill. Sorry again.
