SOULTIDE

All prices and amounts are in US dollars. The store, donator rank totals, Donation Deals tiers and the Gilded Maiden all count US dollars. If your checkout charges another currency, your purchase counts as its US-dollar value: C$25 is about US$18, so it won't reach a US$25 tier. The Donation Deals plugin shows a rough estimate in your own currency next to each amount.

Soultide has eleven donator ranks. Your rank comes from your total donated: every store purchase and every Donator Bond you redeem counts, and you move up automatically as soon as you pass the next threshold. Ranks only ever go up, and each rank includes everything below it.

The ranks

Damage raises your max hit with every combat style. Key save chance is your chance to keep the key when you open a Crystal chest or a Bounty chest.

Rank milestones

• Uber and above: unlimited prayer (your prayer points never drain) and a server-wide announcement when you log in.
• Celestial and above: a chance for gathered logs, ore and fish to come out noted: 10% at Celestial, 15% at Divine, 20% at Eternal, 25% at Soultide and 30% at Sovereign.
• Eternal and Soultide: two drop-table rolls on every Instance Arena kill.
• Sovereign: three Instance Arena drop rolls, and a 20% chance at an extra drop roll on every boss (combat level 250+).

Every donator gets

• The Daily Donator Chest at home.
• Free potion decanting, and no hammer needed to smith.
• A rank icon next to your name in chat, yell and private messages, and a matching Discord role.

Daily Donator Chest

The treasure chest at home can be opened once per day by any donator (it resets at 00:00 UTC). The loot scales with your rank. Every opening gives coins (2M at Donator up to 70M at Sovereign), Crystal and Bounty keys, Vote Boxes, noted sharks, super restores and Saradomin brews, Sunken keys from Legendary up, and a free loot crate roll (a Dragon Hoard, or a Barrows Crypt Box from Eternal up). On top of that there's a chance at 2 Rift Mystery Boxes (1.5% a rank, up to 15%) and at Donator Bonds: $5 (5% a rank), $10 from Extreme, $25 from Mythic and $50 from Eternal, plus a small chance at a Gleaming Rift Box from Celestial. Right-click the chest and pick Show drops to see your rank's table.

Donation Deals

The Donation Deals plugin shows a random store deal every day, plus daily and weekly spend tiers. Every spend-$X deal and tier now pays at least $X in Donator Bonds - more for bigger spends (+10% from $50, +15% from $100, +20% from $250, +25% from $500) - with Rift Mystery Boxes on top (about 1 per $10), and Gleaming or Radiant Rift Boxes in the bigger tiers. Deals no longer pay Sunken keys. Every $100 spent server-wide fills the meter for the Gilded Maiden, whose rolls pay Rift boxes, a chance of a Gleaming box, and a $10 and a $5 bond every time.

Aurelian Isle

Every donator rank can visit Aurelian Isle (::isle): the Atrium for skilling with free tools and 5-25% bonus XP by rank (noted gathering from Legendary, noted and doubled from Divine), and the Treasury, where Aurex the golden dragon waits in five tiers - Donator, Legendary, Celestial, Soultide and Sovereign. See the Aurelian Isle guide.

Donator Bonds

Donator Bonds come in $5, $10, $25 and $50. Redeeming one adds that amount to your total donated, so it counts toward your rank, and gives the same Donation Points a real donation would. Bonds are tradeable, and free players can earn them from Wilderness Bounty Hunter targets (boss targets can give up to a $50 bond), the Bounty chest at home, rare Instance Arena drops (up to $50), world boss kills, the Boss Rush cache, the free Tide Season track, daily rewards (a $25 bond on day 28), Vote Boxes and the Voting Rewards Store, Recruit a Friend milestones and Discord giveaways.

Commands

• ::donorranks shows every rank, its perks and how far you are from the next one.
• ::store opens the donation store, and ::claim collects your purchases.

Halloween runs for the whole of October (server time, UTC). Every monster can drop a Halloween Mystery Box, the Haunted Crypt opens every two hours, and the Grim Reaper hunts small groups of players in between.

The Haunted Crypt

The crypt opens every 2 hours on the even UTC hours (00:00, 02:00, 04:00 and so on). A warning goes out in chat 5 minutes before. Type ::halloween to get there; between runs it tells you when it next opens.

• Defend the raised coffin through 4 waves: the dead, then ghouls, then banshees, then tormented wraiths. Every kill pays coins on the spot.
• Clear all 4 waves and the coffin gives way to the Grim Reaper.
• The crypt is multi-combat, so everyone can fight the waves and the Reaper together.

Reaper's Gaze

Every 2 hours on the odd UTC hours, the Reaper secretly marks up to 5 online players with a whisper.

• You have 5 minutes to type ::reaper. It takes you to his arena to wait. You'll get a reminder with a minute left.
• When the time is up he arrives with 1,500 hitpoints for every player who answered: alone you face 1,500, five of you face 7,500.
• If nobody answers, his gaze passes. If he isn't killed within 30 minutes, he leaves.

The Grim Reaper's loot

Everyone who damaged him gets their own loot, straight to the inventory (or the bank if it's full):

• Always: a Halloween Mystery Box, 150K to 400K coins and 3 to 5 Spiders on sticks.
• Bonus rolls: 1 in the Haunted Crypt, 2 in Reaper's Gaze.

Halloween Mystery Box

An orange and black box full of Halloween outfits, treats and supplies, with rare pulls including the Jack lantern mask, Grim reaper hood, Witch's cat, Scythe, h'ween masks, a $5 Donator Bond, the cosmetic scrolls below and a Scythe of vitur.

• Where from: a rare drop from any monster in October (better odds from bosses), the Grim Reaper, every daily reward claim in October, the Tide Season, and staff events.
• Boxes stack. Right-click a stack and pick Open-all to open them in one go.

Halloween cosmetics

• Pumpkin Reaper title scroll: unlocks the orange Pumpkin Reaper title.
• Hallowed Flame weapon skin: an animated orange and black skin for whatever weapon you wield, with embers running along it.

Both are tradeable. Clicking one unlocks it in the Wardrobe and wears it. If you already own it, the scroll isn't used up, so you can trade it on.

Treats

• Spider on stick: food that heals 10.
• Wrapped candy: stacks. Eat one for a sugar rush - every attack comes one game tick sooner (never faster than 2 ticks). Each candy adds a minute, up to 10 minutes. It shows in the Timers plugin and ends if you log out.

Quick facts

• When: all of October (UTC)
• Haunted Crypt: every 2 hours on even UTC hours, ::halloween
• Reaper's Gaze: every 2 hours on odd UTC hours, ::reaper
• Reaper HP (Gaze): 1,500 per player who answers
• Loot: every damager, guaranteed Halloween box

The daily event

Every day at 12:00 UTC a poll goes up in #events on Discord. Linked players vote until 19:00 UTC, and the winner runs from 20:00 to 21:00 UTC: a Double XP hour, a Double Drops hour, a world boss or 25% off loot boxes. Grab the Events role in #roles to be pinged.

Soultide has two kinds of box: mystery boxes, items you get and open, and loot crates, bought with coins from the Loot Boxes plugin. There are also two key chests at home.

Mystery boxes

All mystery boxes stack in your inventory. Click Open for one, or right-click and pick Open-all to open up to 500 at once. It stops early if your inventory fills, and sums everything up in chat.

Rift Mystery Box

The Rift Mystery Box is full of Rift progression: everything in it can be earned in game, the box just saves time. It replaced the Breaker Box as the reward box everywhere (1 Breaker Box became 2 Rift boxes). Every box also pays Rift Dust: 3 / 5 / 10 / 25 / 60 by the rarity it rolled. The odds are on each box's examine text and ::boxodds.

• Pity: a Legendary or better within 40 boxes, and a Mythic within 200.
• Gleaming Rift Box: always Rare or better. Radiant Rift Box: always Legendary or better. Neither touches your pity count.
• The tokens: a Cube Reroll Token pays for one Enchant, range or power reroll; an Imbue Voucher for one Imbue; an Empower Token for one Empower step. Guardian's Favour makes your next Guardian gear drop legendary, and an Exalted Seal makes it Exalted (one of each a week). A Shard Storm Scroll gives you +50% Soul Shards for an hour, and a Server Boost Token starts any 1-hour server boost free (::boosttoken). See the Rifts guide.
• Where from: the store (1 for $2, 5 for $9, 11 + a Gleaming for $20, 29 + a Radiant for $45), Soulstone Guardians cleared in time, Aurex (your first 50 kills a day), world bosses, the Gilded Maiden, Donation Deals, the Daily Donator Chest, the Pass daily code, Vote Boxes, Discord giveaways, staff events, daily rewards, Recruit a Friend, clue caskets, the Donator Island chests and rare monster drops.
• Rift Dust shop: the "???" shadow beside the Soul Keeper (Trade, or ::dust) sells 1,000 Soul Shards (25 Dust), 3 Essence (20), a gem upgrade roll (40), a Shard Storm Scroll or Overload scroll (60), a Reroll Token (120), a Server Boost Token (150), an Imbue Voucher (200), Guardian's Favour (250), an Empower Token (600), an Exalted Seal (900) and a Soulforge Catalyst (1,000).

Breaker Box

Every box also gives 100-500 Tidebreak tokens on top. Big pulls are announced to the server and on Discord.

Loot crates

• Open the Loot Boxes sidebar plugin and pick a crate. You pay in coins (inventory first, then your money pouch) and the prize is revealed with an animation.
• There are 21 crates, from the 5K Tin Satchel to the 100M Golden Soul Crate. Each one can roll almost any tradeable item in the game, and the pricier the crate, the better your shot at valuable gear.
• Every crate has a cap on how much a single prize can be worth, so the cheap crates can't pay out top-tier gear.
• Most opens return less than the crate costs; the big pulls are where you win.
• Accounts with under 3 hours of play can't open loot crates yet.

Crystal and Bounty chests

Right-click either chest and pick Show drops for the exact odds. Donators have a chance to keep their key.

Quick facts

• Stacking: every mystery box stacks
• Open-all: up to 500 at once
• Rift Mystery Box: from $2; pity at 40 (Legendary) and 200 (Mythic); Rift Dust on every box
• Breaker Box: $5; Leviathan piece 1 in 40, plus 100-500 Tidebreak tokens
• Loot crates: 21, from 5K to 100M coins

Soultide's first raid and its achievements, the Tidal gear it drops, a new home for every world boss, and a rework of how ranged and magic work. Here's everything that changed and how to get the most out of it.

The Sunken Sanctum

A boss trial for 1 to 5 players across six chambers on islands in a drowned temple. Type ::raid or open the Raids plugin to make a party, invite friends by name, and start. Everyone must be next to the leader and out of combat. Clear a chamber and a Tidal portal rises; click it to move the whole party on.

• Safe deaths. Dying sends you back to the start of the current chamber with all your items.
• Scaled to your party. Bosses are sized to each member's max hit, so newer players face bosses sized to them, and stronger gear clears faster. Bigger parties clear faster too.
• Learner's tide. While your max hit is under 35, raid enemies hit you 15% softer.
• Boss guide. The Raids plugin has a dropdown with how to beat each chamber. Inside the raid it jumps to the chamber you're in.
• Rewards. Beating Thalassor gives everyone 10 to 15 Sunken keys. Open them at the Sanctum chest at home.
• Run it again. A portal rises in Thalassor's lair when he falls. Click it to restart the raid or leave.

Race the clock

After every boss, and at the end of the raid, everyone in the party sees their time against their personal best. Personal bests are kept separately for solo runs, duos, trios and parties of 4 and 5.

The Sanctum scoreboard at home shows the fastest full clears for each party size, and the fastest kills of every boss, solo and by party size, with the players' names. Make the board and you're told your place.

Tidal gear and unique powers

The Sanctum chest is the home of 12 pieces of Tidal gear: helm, platebody, platelegs, gloves, boots, cape, amulet, ring, ward, sword, bow and staff. Every Sunken key also pays 200K to 300K coins, and can roll keys, bonds and the Tidal glow scroll.

A piece with a unique power shows its name in seafoam with the power after it, like Tidal helm (Undertow). You can have up to 3 armour powers active at once, plus your weapon's.

Powered pieces also glow seafoam in your inventory, bank and equipment screen, outlined so even the dark helm and body stand out. Hover one to see what its power does.

Weapon powers

Each weapon has its own power. Every 6th hit with its style unleashes a flurry of 3 extra strikes, one every 2 ticks, rising from a normal hit up to +50%. The strikes land as seafoam hitsplats.

Armour and jewellery powers

• Bank stacking. Copies of the same piece with the same power stack in one bank slot. Every copy you withdraw keeps its power.
• Socketable. Every Tidal piece takes Runic chisel sockets and Runewords. Its unique power survives losing its sockets.
• Untradeable. Tidal gear with a unique power can't be traded.
• Best In Slot Box. 1 in 1,000 boxes now holds a Tidal piece, which can roll a power too.

Raid achievements

22 new achievements for the Sunken Sanctum, in the Quest/Achievement Web with the normal coin rewards for their difficulty. They count toward your Soul Points like every other achievement.

Keep your skill cape best in slot

Use a Tidal cape on any level 99 or 120 skill cape (plain, trimmed or master), or on a Max, Completionist or Veteran cape. The skill cape takes the better of each stat from the two capes, and the Tidal cape's unique power if it has one. The Tidal cape is used up, and your skill cape keeps its own perks and emote.

A bound cape looks like the Tidal cape, both on you and in your inventory and bank, and its name shows what's underneath, like Tidal cape (Max) or Tidal cape (Attack).

Changed your mind? Use a different Tidal cape on your bound skill cape. You get the old Tidal cape back, power included, and the skill cape takes on the new one.

Want it on a different skill cape? Use that skill cape on your bound one. The Tidal cape and its power move across, and the cape it left becomes a normal skill cape again. Two bound capes swap their Tidal capes.

The World Boss Arena

Every world boss now rises in its own arena: a volcanic ruin on a lava sea. That includes the Corrupted Nechryarch, which spawns every 45 minutes with a 5-minute warning, and the bosses from Discord votes, staff events and community boosts.

::wbCtrl + W::event::worldboss

• ::wb or Ctrl + W takes you to the arena entrance at any time.
• ::event during a fight drops you at the arena's south gate. ::worldboss shows when the next Nechryarch rises.
• The arena is multi-combat. If you die there, you respawn at the south gate and still get your reward when the boss falls.
• Right-click the live world boss and pick Show drops to see its reward table.

Everyone who does at least 2% of the boss's health gets 5M to 10M coins, 10 PvM Points and one roll on this table:

Ranged, magic and the accessory slot

• No more ammo. Ranged weapons fire the best ammo your level allows, and nothing is used up. The blowpipe needs nothing either.
• Free combat spells. Combat spells cost no runes. Utility spells such as teleports and alchemy still do.
• The accessory slot. The old ammo slot now holds one damage accessory: rune talismans for magic, sigils for melee, quivers and Ava's devices for ranged. Each gives +1% up to +15% damage, shown in its name, like Rune sigil (+8%).
• The Accessory merchant at home sells all three lines. Right-click him and pick Trade to choose the melee, ranged or magic store.

Daily Donator Chest

The chest at home now pays out properly every day, scaling with your donator rank. Anything that doesn't fit goes to your bank.

Higher ranks also get noted supplies and, from rank 7 up, a small chance of a Best In Slot Box. Right-click the chest and pick Show drops to see your own rank's table.

The store

• PayPal is available. Card payments through Stripe still aren't working properly, so please use PayPal for now.
• 3 new Sunken key bundles: 5 keys for $5, 15 keys for $15 and 30 keys for $25. Keys go to your inventory (they stack) or your bank.

Quality-of-life changes

Combat and monsters

• Monsters wait for you. Monsters in the open world no longer attack on sight. Minigames work as before.
• Instance Arena. Bosses wait until you attack, the boss list is sorted by combat level, and Venenatis has joined the list.
• Show drops. Right-click any monster you can attack, or the Crystal, Bounty, Sanctum and Daily Donator chests, to see their drop tables with real odds.
• Slayer instances. Monsters killed by the area splash now give combat XP too.
• Accessories. Each accessory shows its damage bonus in its name, and the equipment screen shows your total accessory bonus.

Pets and Beastmastery

• Constellation level stars count toward Beastmastery unlocks, so 85 trained plus 5 from stars opens level 90.
• ::toggleforage stops your pets from foraging.
• The Tidewyrm's tide gift can now be a Vote Box (1 in 10) instead of a Voting Point.

Chat and social

• @mentions. Type @name in public chat, clan chat or yell and that player gets a pop-up, plus a Windows notification if their game isn't in focus.
• Your ignore list now hides yells from players you ignore.
• Community Managers show their own tag in yell.

Items and interface

• Ctrl + hover for stats. Hold Ctrl over any item to see its stats. Each one is green if it beats what you're wearing in that slot, red if it's worse, and white if it's the same.
• Hover boxes stay fully on screen, including over the inventory in fixed mode and at the bank's right-hand edge.
• Mining instructor. Talk to him at home to choose his Mining store or the Stardust shop.

Raids, voting and more

• The Raids plugin has a boss guide for every chamber, and lists the Tidal powers you're wearing, active ones first.
• Each vote can be claimed as soon as it comes in, with no 12-hour wait between claims.
• After 30 minutes without a click you're moved to the AFK zone.
• The loot crate discount hour applies from the Iron Coffer up.
• The Tidal armour glow cosmetic now matches Thalassor's colours.
• The chat bar's website button is labelled Website and opens soultidersps.com.

Bug fixes

Sunken Sanctum

• The Tidal portal between chambers is a normal click portal again, so it no longer misses clicks.
• Melee can reach Thalassor from the edge of his pool.
• Standing right next to Thalassor no longer dodges his surge.
• Splashing tiles give you 3 seconds to step off, up from under 2.
• Coral Guardians revive after 1 minute, and the Frostdeep Warden stays vulnerable for 30 seconds.
• Tidal weapon powers can't hit the Frostdeep Warden through its ice.
• Restarting a raid no longer spawns the previous chamber's bosses or lets Thalassor's attacks carry over.
• Boss health follows the players still in the raid when someone leaves.

Bosses and instances

• Instance Arena instances no longer end up with several different bosses at once.
• K'ril Tsutsaroth kills count for pet tasks.
• Pet task instances can't be farmed by dismissing or picking up your pet.

Skills and items

• Make X on dragonhide bodies and chaps makes the item you picked, not vambraces.
• Torva bars can be smithed into Torva gear at an anvil, like Bandos bars.
• Special-bar gear (Dragon, Barrows, Armadyl, Bandos, Third-age and Torva) smiths from the right bars even if you carry more than one kind, instead of refusing with a "cheating software" message.
• Super antipoison lasts 6 minutes.
• Kuradel's barbarian spirit task counts both Angry and Enraged spirits.
• Mystic lava staves, Lava battlestaves and Dragon 2h swords can be withdrawn as notes.
• The Serpentine helm, Fire cape and every Ava's device can take sockets.
• Loot crates no longer roll items that show as "null", or items that are meant to be untradeable.
• Shops restock items that sold out. Before, a sold-out item could leave a blank slot, as the Crystal and Bounty keys did in the AFK shop.
• Every Halloween scythe reward is the same Scythe. The Bounty key chest and the Holy Waters shop handed out a duplicate copy.

World and NPCs

• The Slayer Tower doors can be walked through.
• Nomad is named Nomad again.
• The Skotizo pet's head no longer twists when it moves.
• Pets in your second slot no longer attack you.

Interface and plugins

• The Ctrl + hover stats box shows the item's stats again. It had been showing only the name.
• Soul Constellation loadouts load properly.
• The plugin scroll wheel keeps scrolling instead of stopping after one step.
• Plugin panels keep their scroll position when you take a hit, instead of jumping back to the top.
• Dungeoneering: commands can't pull you out of a run by accident; leave by abandoning the run.

Quick facts

• Raid: ::raid or the Raids plugin, 1-5 players, 5 bosses
• Rewards: 10-15 Sunken keys per clear, opened at the Sanctum chest at home
• Tidal gear: 12 pieces, 1 in 4 roll a unique power
• Skill capes: bind a Tidal cape into any 99, Max, Completionist or Veteran cape
• World bosses: ::wb or Ctrl + W; Nechryarch every 45 minutes
• Combat: no ammo, free combat spells, damage accessories in the old ammo slot

Boss Rush is an endless roguelike gauntlet: fight floor after floor of monsters and bosses, get stronger as you go, and cash out before it gets you. Clear floor 110 for the Golden party hat, then keep going as deep as you can.

Getting in

• Type ::rush or open the Boss Rush plugin.
• Go solo or in a party of up to 3 (make the party in the Instances plugin).
• Entry is 25M coins per player.
• Your own gear and inventory are banked and come straight back when you leave. Coins stay on you for rerolls. No pets or familiars.
• Disconnected? You have 3 minutes to log back in and carry on from the same floor with everything you had.
• Server restart? Your run is kept. Log back in within 20 minutes and you're back on the same floor with everything you had. A floor you were fighting starts again.

Run modes

The party leader picks a mode in the Boss Rush plugin or with ::rush mode. Each mode has its own leaderboard.

• Normal: pick 1 of 3 cards after every floor.
• Nightmare: every card is a curse, but some curses carry a Forge, rainbow gear or an accessory. Gear from a curse is put on at once, at any level.
• Fatebound: every card is face down - you only see its rarity.
• Dealer's Choice: no choosing - you're given a random card after every floor.
• Burden: start in full Leviathan gear with the Tide Titan's ring, amulet and jewel, but hold only 10 cards all run.

Kits and rush levels

• Pick Melee, Ranged, Magic or Hybrid. You start in tier-0 gear; Forge cards take it through Torva, Pernix and Virtus up to tier 9, the Tidal set (no powers).
• Rainbow cards go further: Tidal with a power, then Leviathan, the end game (each worn Leviathan armour piece adds +10% damage in the rush, up to 3, and the full set its usual bonus). The amulet and ring end at the Heart of the Titan and Tidecrash Band; accessories end at your style's Titan jewel (+20%).
• Your combat skills become rush levels: they start at 1 and climb from kills. Your real levels and XP are untouched.
• Prayers and curses are unlocked by cards and work at any Prayer level.
• Switch off the level-up chat messages in the Boss Rush window or with ::rush levelmsgs off.

Cards

After every floor you pick 1 of 3 cards. You have 1 minute; reroll an offer (1M, doubling) or banish a card family for the run (2M, doubling).

Training cards

Each Training card adds a rush XP bonus for the rest of the run. Bonuses stack up to +300% per skill; once a skill is capped its cards stop being dealt.

Wild cards

Rare cards that bend the rules, dealt only when they'd do something for you.

Invert

From floor 90, the Invert Wild card can turn one of your run's modifiers your way. The modifier is picked at random from the ones you haven't flipped yet, and the card shows which one before you choose it.

Floors and modifiers

• Normal floors are packs of monsters. Every 5th floor is a Soultide boss, every 10th an elder boss.
• Bosses get tougher every floor, more gently after floor 50.
• From floor 10, a new modifier joins every 10 floors for the rest of the run.

Rest stops, cashing out and dying

• Every 5 floors you reach a rest stop: healed and restocked. Cash out to keep what you've earned, or carry on (the run goes on by itself after 5 minutes).
• Checkpoints every 25 floors save the Rush marks you hold. If the run is lost later, you still get half of them. The leader can pause the rest stop after a checkpoint for up to 30 minutes (::rush pause, the rest menu or the plugin), then the run carries on by itself.
• There's no AFK timer during a run. You have 5 minutes to pick each card.
• Rush marks and loot are at risk until you cash out. Dying loses what you earned since your last cash-out.
• Boss floors add loot rolls to your Rush cache: coins, crystal and bounty keys, Sunken keys and Donator Bonds.
• Floor 110: the Golden party hat, once per account. Set as your head look it doubles your damage and counts as the helm of any Boss Rush set.

The Rush Mark Shop

• Sets: Riftborn (melee), Galewind (ranged), Astral (magic), 8 pieces each. 4 pieces: +10% damage. Full set: +10% damage, 5% crit and a triple-damage hit every 8th hit.
• Tribrid: forge a piece from the same piece of all three sets; it doubles every bonus.
• Sets work as looks through the Cosmetic Overrides plugin. Also pet looks, titles and run perks.

#boss-rush-leaderboard on Discord shows this week's deepest floors, overall, per kit and for duos and trios. It resets every Monday 00:00 UTC and the winners are posted there.

Quick facts

• Start: ::rush, 25M entry, up to 3 players
• Golden party hat: clear floor 110
• Rest stops: every 5 floors, 5 minutes each

Beastmastery is a side skill all about your boss pets. You train it by doing things with a pet out, and every pet has its own bond level (1-10) that makes its perks stronger. It doesn't count toward max, completionist or veteran capes, so level it for fun and for the perks!

Getting started

1. Summon any boss pet.
2. Click Beastmastery in your Skills tab to teleport to the Pet Master (at home, next to the shops).
3. Talk-to him for pet tasks, or Trade for the Pet Token shop.
4. Pick up a Pet whistle and a Grooming brush there.

How to train (your pet must be out)

• Kill monsters: XP and bond XP every kill, and bosses count triple.
• Treats: use cooked food on any bones to make them, then Feed:
  • Kibble (Cooking 1 / Beastmastery 1): shrimps, anchovies, sardine, herring, chicken, meat, bread
  • Meaty chew (40 / 20): trout, salmon, tuna, bass, lobster, swordfish
  • Shark snack (76 / 45): monkfish, shark, sea turtle, cavefish
  • Dragon jerky (90 / 70): manta ray, rocktail
  • Celestial treat (99 / 105): rocktail on dragon, frost dragon, ourg or dagannoth bones
• Grooming brush: groom up to 20 times a day.
• Pet essence: a rare boss drop, also found while foraging. Your pet absorbs it over 30 seconds for a big burst of bond XP.
• Pet Master tasks: kill a set number of monsters with a pet out for Pet Tokens and XP. Elite boss tasks start at level 105.

Unlocks

• 15 Forage: your pet digs up coins, herbs, seeds and charms while you fight or skill.
• 30 Lucky Paws: a chance at an extra drop-table roll, higher with bond.
• 45 Pet abilities: Pet whistle → Command (or ::petability), 60 second cooldown:
  • Breath (dragons, wyrms, Zulrah, Vorki...): a burst of damage
  • Mend (Zilyana, Phoenix...): heals you
  • Pounce (Corp, Kalphite Queen, Cerberus, Nex...): stuns your target
  • Guard (Graardor, Rex, Bork...): 25% less damage taken for 10s
  • Frenzy (everyone else): 15% more damage for 10s
• 60 & 110 Perk slots: a resting pet's perks apply at half strength (set them at the Pet Master).
• 75 Evolution stone: evolve a bond-10 pet (+25% perks).
• 90 Combat pets: your pets run in and fight beside you for up to ~20% of your max hit, with blue hitsplats!
• 99 Beastmaster cape: all your pets count as one bond level higher while you wear it, plus a small extra chance at boss pets.
• 105: Elite pet tasks and Celestial treats.
• 115 Dual summon: summon a second pet. It gets half its perks, or full with the Pack Leader mastery. Pick up your primary and the second one takes over.
• 120 Apex stone (+50% perks) and the Apex beastmaster cape (abilities recharge 25% faster).
• 121-150 (Soul Constellation levels): +1% to everything per level.

Pet perks & bond

Each pet's perk depends on how tough its boss is: +2% to +5% drop rate, plus up to +3% XP for the biggest bosses. The Tidewyrm and AFK Cat have their own special perks.

Perks grow +5% per bond level (+45% at bond 10), and +25% / +50% once evolved / apex.

Check yours anytime in the Pets plugin (sidebar) or with Pet whistle → Check.

The Kennel: why bond with every pet

Pets that aren't out still help while they rest:

• Resting perks: 5% of their drop-rate and XP perk at bond 5, 10% at bond 10, 15% evolved and 20% apex (capped at +15% drop rate and +10% XP).
• Pack Tactics: +1% pet damage for every pet at bond 10 (up to +25%).
• Collection log: Pet Master → Bonds & collection log pays Pet Tokens when you have 5, 10, 20, 35 and then every pet at bond 5.

Looks & names

• Evolution / Apex stones and collars (Gilded, Shadow, Crimson, Frost, Emerald, Void) unlock looks in Wardrobe → Combat pets.
  • Preview: see it on your pets (only you see it)
  • Primary: the pet in your Summoning slot
  • Secondary: your dual-summon pet
• Pet name tag: give your pet a name, shown above its head.

The Hound (Soul Constellation)

Beastmastery has its own figure in the Support quadrant, bought with Pet Points: 1 per 2 Beastmastery levels, 60 at level 120, which is enough for the whole figure. They're separate from your 100 Soul Points, and its mastery (Pack Leader or Alpha Bond) doesn't use one of your 2 mastery slots.

The Hatchery: buy pet eggs with coins

Open the Hatchery plugin to buy a pet egg with coins. Every boss pet except the Tidewyrm is in exactly one egg, sorted by how tough its boss is, and each egg hatches one pet with its own animation.

• Within an egg, pets from weaker bosses are more common. The AFK Cat is one of the rarest Sunforged hatches.
• Every egg gives a little Beastmastery XP, but eggs never buy levels.
• Only Sunforged hatches are announced to the server.
• Hatched a pet you already have? Keep it, or sell the spare straight away for bond XP.

Pet tasks and duplicates

• Type ::pettask for an instanced pet task, like a Slayer instance: waves of your task monster to clear with your pet out. Your task, kills left, token reward and streak show in the Pets plugin and your player panel.
• Every 5th task in a row pays a streak bonus. Cancelling a task resets your streak.
• Your pet has to stay out. You can't pick up or dismiss it inside a pet task.
• Duplicate pets: use a spare pet on the Pet Master, or pick Trade in duplicate pets. You keep one of each and the spares pay bond XP.
• ::petmaster takes you to the Pet Master. ::toggleforage stops (or restarts) your pets foraging.

Tips

• Keep a pet out whenever you kill or skill. It's free XP.
• Bosses give triple XP and bond.
• Elite tasks from 105 are the fastest late-game XP.
• Spread your bond across many pets for the Kennel and Pack Tactics.

The Loot plugin is the sack icon in your sidebar. It controls what you see on the ground and what auto loot picks up. It has 5 tabs: Auto Loot · Rules · Display · Presets · Saved.

Set it up in 30 seconds

1. Open Loot → Presets and press Add under Boss hunter.
2. Go kill something. Drops worth 1M+ now glow with a loot beam and alert you. Junk under 5K is hidden.
3. Want it different? Everything can be changed on the Rules and Display tabs (see below).

Auto Loot tab

• Toggle Auto Loot turns it on or off.
• Send looted items to my bank: drops skip your inventory.
• Pick up items as notes: drops arrive noted so they stack.
• Always loot socketed items: on means every socketed drop is picked up. Off means they follow your other settings.
• Always loot drops worth at least: e.g. 250k or 1m.
• Item type tick boxes: below that value, only the ticked types are looted (bones, herbs, runes...).
• Unidentified gear: gear drops unidentified (its stat lines roll when you identify it). Always loot it, or let it follow your item types; and send it to your inventory or bank - the same setting as the Rifts plugin's Settings.

Your Rules are checked before all of this.

Rules tab: your own loot filter

Press + Add rule and fill in two parts.

1. Match items where...

• Name: use * as a wildcard and commas for several, e.g. dragon bones, *nightmare*, abyssal whip
• Item ids (optional)
• Value from / up to: the total value of the drop, e.g. 10k, 1m, 1.5b
• Item type, Socketed, Rare drop: these only affect auto loot, not ground labels

2. Then...

• Auto loot: don't change it / to inventory / to bank / as notes / never auto loot
• Highlight: click the colour box to pick any colour
• Loot beam: same colour as the highlight, or its own
• Alert: chat message, sound, and/or a pop-up at the top of your screen
• Hide these drops instead

Order matters! Rules are checked top to bottom, and the first rule that matches wins. Use ▲▼ to reorder them, and click a rule to edit or delete it.

Share your setup: Export copies all your rules, and a friend presses Import to add them.

Example rules

• Name: *bones → Auto loot to bank
• Value from: 5m → Highlight pink + beam + pop-up alert
• Value up to: 2k → Hide
• Name: coins → Highlight yellow

Display tab

• Show item names / Show value on the ground, plus label size.
• Value basis: Shop value or High alch value. Labels, colours, rule value ranges and auto loot all use the one you pick.
• Value colours: Low / Medium / High / Insane. Click a colour to change it, and type a new starting value (e.g. 50k) to move a tier. Drops that no rule matches use these.
• Hide drops worth less than: e.g. 10k for a clean screen.
• Hidden drops: pick how they hide:
  • Hide the label only: the item is still there and you can still take it
  • Label + right-click Take: you can't accidentally pick it up
  • Everything: the item isn't drawn on the ground at all
• Loot beams: beams on High and Insane drops, in the value colour or one colour of your choice. Height and opacity sliders too.

⭐ Presets tab

One-click starting points that add rules to the end of your list:

• Boss hunter: 1M+ drops glow, beam and alert; junk under 5K hidden
• Supplies to bank: bones, herbs and seeds auto loot straight to your bank
• Socketed drops: always auto loot socketed items
• Clean screen: hides labels for drops under 10K
• Reset everything: back to default (your Saved filters are kept)

Saved tab: switch setups in one click

1. Set up your rules and Display settings the way you like.
2. Saved → Save current filter... and give it a name, e.g. Bossing.
3. Make another setup, e.g. Skilling, and save that too.
4. Press Load on any saved filter to switch to it. Rename and Delete are there too.

You can keep up to 20. Tip: save your current setup before loading another, because Load replaces it.

Good to know

• Your auto loot rules are saved on your account, so they work on any PC you log in on. Colours, beams, alerts and Saved filters are saved on your PC.
• Item type / Socketed / Rare rule conditions only change auto loot. They don't change ground labels.
• Alerts only fire once per drop, so no spam if you walk away and come back.
• Stuck? Open Presets → Reset everything and start fresh.

The Soul Constellation is a permanent, account-wide skill tree you fill with Soul Points earned by playing. Open it from the Soul Constellation sidebar tab with Open Constellation Map. Every skill's stars form a figure of that skill, like a sword for Attack, a heart for Constitution or a pickaxe for Mining, spread across four quadrants of the sky: Combat, Artisan, Gathering and Support & Ancient. There is no quadrant lock, so you can spend points anywhere.

The stars

• Trail stars (1 SP) lead from the centre of the map out to each figure.
• Outline stars (1 SP) trace the figure. Some give +1 to that skill's level; others give a little XP, resource yield or material savings.
• Notables (2 SP, bright stars) sit on a figure's key points. Each has its own effect that only helps that skill.
• Mastery pair (3 SP, the two ringed stars at the figure's heart): pick one of the two.

The lines between stars are just for looks, so you can unlock stars in any order.

Completing figures

Every figure has a completion bonus that grows as you fill it in. Masteries never count toward it.

• Tier 1 at a third of the figure's stars, tier 2 at two thirds, tier 3 when every star is unlocked.
• Connected: also unlock the figure's whole trail back to the centre for its biggest bonus. The trail lights up when you do.

A figure takes about 50-53 Soul Points to complete, or 55-59 connected. With a maximum of 100 points you can't finish everything: most builds go deep on one connected figure and part-fill a second, or spread tier 1 and 2 bonuses across several.

Levels up to 150

Every skill has exactly 30 level stars (all of its trail stars plus about half its outline stars), so every skill, Constitution, Prayer and Summoning included, can go from 120 up to 150. Bonus levels count like real ones for requirements, and most levels above 120 still do something extra:

Earning Soul Points

You start with 1 point and can earn up to 100 from normal play. The sidebar tab shows how many you have from each source:

• Total level: 1 point per 100 total levels, up to 30
• Boss kills: 1 point per 100 boss kills over your account's lifetime, up to 25
• Achievements: 1 point per 7 achievements completed, up to 25
• Soul Fragments: a rare find while training any non-combat skill, worth 1 point each, up to 19

The Torch and Rift Points

Dungeoneering became Rifting, and its figure, The Torch, is now bought with its own Rift Points (up to 60) instead of Soul Points. You earn them from Rift clears: a Soulrift gives 0.1-0.24 of a point and an in-time Soulstone Rift 0.25-0.5. Its mastery needs Rift Points spent on its stars first, and it doesn't count toward your two-mastery limit. Any Soul Points you had spent on the old Dungeoneering stars came back to you. See the Rifts guide.

Masteries

You can hold two masteries, in any skills. Your first unlocks once you have spent 40 points on other stars and runs at 50% power. Your second needs 70 points spent and runs at 100% power.

Notables

Every notable has its own effect and only affects its own skill.

Your bonuses

The sidebar tab lists everything your constellation gives you: stats from many stars are added together (for example "+12 Attack levels"), followed by your notables, masteries and figure tiers. Hover over any star on the map to see its figure's progress and when the next tier unlocks.

Changing your mind

The Respec button on the map refunds every point, masteries included, so you can rebuild at any time.

Quick facts

• 27 figures, one per skill
• Soul Points: start at 1, up to 100
• Figure tiers at 1/3, 2/3 and all stars, plus connected
• Masteries: max 2 (50% and 100% power)
• Respec: full refund, any time
• Remote ::attune unlocks at 120 Transformation

The Soultide Pass is a 30-day subscription that sits alongside donator ranks. Get it from the store (::store) and collect it with ::claim. Buy 30, 60 or 90 days (the longer packs cost less per month), and you can stack up to 180 days. Like any store purchase, the money still counts toward your donator rank and gives Donation Points. Type ::pass in game to see your days left.

What you get

• +10% XP and +5% drop rate, on top of your donator rank.
• Boss drops go straight to your bank when there's room.
• A daily Pass roll at the home chest. The treasure chest at home gives you 2M coins, 100 noted sharks, 20 noted super restores, 20 noted Saradomin brews, 2 crystal keys, a free Dragon Hoard loot box roll, and a 5% chance of a $5 bond (1% for a $10 bond). If you're also a donator, you still get your donator loot from the same chest.
• The daily code (see below).
• A monthly Pass exclusive: a Wardrobe title or name colour you keep forever, different each month (Tidebound, Tidegold, Soulwarden, Abyssal, ...). It can't be bought any other way.
• A gold [Pass] tag on your yells, and the Soultide Pass role on the Discord with access to the subscribers-only channels.

The daily code

Every day at 17:00 UTC the Discord bot posts a new code in #pass-daily (you need to link your account with ::link to see it). Redeem it in game with ::daily <code>, once per day. The code works until the next one drops. Each day's reward is one of these, picked at random:

Commands

• ::pass shows whether your Pass is active, your days left and your perks.
• ::daily <code> redeems today's code from #pass-daily.
• ::store buys the Pass, and ::claim collects it.

The Tide Season is a free battle pass that runs for one calendar month (UTC). Everyone is on it automatically. Finish challenges to earn Season XP, and every 1,000 Season XP unlocks the next of 30 tiers. Each tier has a Free reward for everyone and a Pass reward for Soultide Pass holders. When the month ends, your progress resets and a new season begins.

Earning Season XP

Season XP only comes from challenges, so there is nothing to AFK. You get 3 daily challenges (new ones at 00:00 UTC) and 5 weekly challenges (new ones every Monday at 00:00 UTC), picked at random. Dailies are worth 200-250 Season XP and weeklies 1,000-1,500. Challenges include:

• Killing monsters, killing bosses, and Instance Arena kills
• Completing Bounty Hunter targets and Slayer tasks
• Clue scrolls and helping defeat the world boss (weekly)
• Gaining XP overall, or in Woodcutting, Mining, Fishing or Thieving

Claiming rewards

Open the Season tab in the client sidebar (the wave icon) to see your tier, your challenges and every reward, and click Claim or Claim all. You can also type ::season claim. Pass rewards can be claimed any time during the month while your Pass is active, so if you buy the Pass partway through, you can still claim the Pass rewards for every tier you have already reached. After tier 30, every extra 1,000 Season XP earns a repeatable bonus reward. Unclaimed rewards are lost when the season ends.

You can check your progress on the website too: sign in on the Account page and open the Tide Season tab.

Rewards this season

Loot crate rolls are a free open of that crate: a Dragon Hoard on the free track and a Barrows Crypt Box on the Pass track. The Tide Champion title and Seafoam name colour are Wardrobe cosmetics you keep forever. Rewards can change from season to season. This season, tiers 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 each add a Halloween Mystery Box (two on the Pass track).

Leaderboard

Every Monday at 18:00 UTC the Discord bot posts the season's top 10 in #events, and it announces each new season when it starts.

Commands

• ::season shows your tier, Season XP and challenges in chat.
• ::season claim claims every reward you have unlocked.

Quick facts

• Free for everyone
• 30 tiers, 1,000 Season XP each
• 3 daily + 5 weekly challenges
• Resets on the 1st of each month (UTC)
• Pass track needs the Soultide Pass

The Wardrobe is Soultide's cosmetics store. Everything in it is cosmetic only: nothing changes your stats, drops or damage, and nothing can be traded or sold. It's a tab on the sidebar (the coat hanger icon) that opens a full window with a live preview, and you can also type ::wardrobe.

The new Wardrobe

The Wardrobe has been rebuilt with all-new looks: 20 of each kind, plus 19 new server boosts. Everything the old store sold in the redone categories (name colours, transformation skins, weapon glows, auras, drop flair, wings and armour looks) was retired, and anyone who owned one got its price back as Donation Points automatically at login. Titles, pets, and anything earned from minigames, raids, the Pass, seasons, votes or events stay.

How it works

• Items cost Donation Points. The donation store (::store) gives 1 point per $1, plus bonus points on bigger packs: +10% from $25, +15% from $50 and +20% from $100. Collect purchases with ::claim, which also runs automatically when you log in.
• Preview anything before you buy. Buying asks you to confirm first. After that the item is yours for good: press Wear or Take off at any time, for free.
• You can wear one item from each category at a time.
• Spending points never lowers your donated total, so your donator rank is safe.

What's for sale

Earned cosmetics

Some cosmetics can't be bought. They're listed locked in the Wardrobe so you can preview them, with how to earn them:

• Titles: Rookie Rusher, Rushborn, Floorbreaker and Ascendant (Boss Rush shop), the Wayfarer (finish the Soultide Journey), Tidebreaker and Leviathan Slayer (Tidebreak Trials), Artisan and Soulforged (Soulforge Guild), Aurelian, Hoardbreaker, Aurex-Slayer and Hoardlord (Aurelian Isle).
• The Riftwalker aura: a rare drop from Soulstone Guardians cleared in time (see Rifts).
• Drowned Auction looks: 34 animated armour and weapon looks won at the Drowned Auction.
• Halloween: the Pumpkin Reaper title and the animated Hallowed Flame weapon look come as scrolls from Halloween Mystery Boxes and the Grim Reaper - click one to unlock it. See Halloween 2026.

Server boosts

Boosts are bought for the whole server and last an hour. They're announced in game and in #events on the Discord. Buying a boost that's already running adds another hour on top, up to 3 hours ahead.

You can't summon the world boss while one is already up, and there's a 2-hour cooldown between summons. A Server Boost Token (from Rift Mystery Boxes) starts any 1-hour boost for free with ::boosttoken.

Commands

• ::wardrobe shows your Donation Points and points you to the Wardrobe tab.
• ::customtitle <colour> <text> sets your custom title. The colours are red, green, blue, yellow, gold, orange, cyan, magenta, white and lime.
• ::store opens the donation store, and ::claim collects your points.

Cosmetic Overrides

The Cosmetic Overrides sidebar plugin is free for everyone: pick any item you own to show in a visible gear slot, or hide the slot entirely. It changes your looks only - your stats always come from what you're really wearing. Items must be in your inventory, bank or worn; if you stop owning one, its look is removed next time you log in. Hide all shows your real gear only - no looks, wings or aura either.

Quick facts

• Currency: Donation Points, 1 per $1 (+10-20% on bigger packs)
• Prices: 100-250 points
• Old cosmetics: retired and refunded as points at login
• Boosts: 23, for the whole server, up to 3 hours ahead

It's off until you turn it on, and it needs the Discord desktop app open on the same Windows PC. ::presence off or logging out clears it.

Gear can roll sockets. Put runes into them in the right order and you complete a Runeword: one of 41 named combinations, each giving that one item a permanent bonus. Low-level words add stats; the higher ones add damage %, drop rate, double drops, XP or prayer drain, and at the top of the Runic skill they become real on-hit procs.

Getting sockets

• Socketable gear can roll 1 to 3 sockets when it drops from a monster or when you smith it.
• The Runic chisel carves a socket yourself. Each use is one attempt and the chisel is always used up:

  Sockets now	Carve one	Nothing	Lose a socket
  0	60%	40%	0%
  1	35%	40%	25%
  2	10%	40%	50%

  Losing a socket loses the rune in it and breaks any Runeword it completed. A carve that could lose one asks you to use it again to confirm.
• Where chisels come from: make one at the Essence altar at home (Runic 50: a chisel, 100 Blood runes and 100 Death runes), buy them in the Slayer and Voting stores, or get one as a rare drop (about 1 in 150) from any boss.
• Perfect runic chisel (Runic 120): use 100 Runic chisels on the Essence altar to make one. Use it on any socketable item and pick 1, 2 or 3 sockets; the item gets exactly that many. Each use has a 50% chance to break the chisel.
• Hundreds of items can hold sockets: top-tier weapons (Twisted bow, Scythe, Kodai, rapiers, nightmare staves...), blowpipes, Nex, Vesta, Statius, Zuriel and Morrigan gear, Serpentine helms, gloves, rings, amulets, the Fire cape, Ava's devices, the Max, Completionist, Veteran and Tidal capes, and more. The /item command on Discord tells you if an item can.

Filling sockets

• Use a rune on the socketed item to put it in the next empty socket. The rune is used up.
• Runes must go in in the order listed; the wrong order doesn't match.
• A 3-socket item can run a 1- or 2-rune Runeword with its other sockets empty.
• A Runeword below your Runic level stays dormant until your level catches up.
• Rune Resonance: full sockets that don't make a Runeword still give each rune's own bonus at 70%.
• Changed your mind? Use a hammer on the item (and confirm twice) to smash its sockets and make it plain again.

Training Runic

Use runes on the Essence altar at home, or pick Inscribe runes from its menu, and they're bound into the stone 10 at a time until you run out. Each rune needs a Runic level equal to its Runecrafting level; XP per rune is 3 × (40 + 2 × that level): Air 126, Nature 384, Blood 570.

Socketed items

• Socketed items are account-bound: they can't be traded.
• Identical socketed items (same item, same runes) stack in your bank.
• They sell and alch for the plain item's value.
• Completed Runewords glow in your inventory, and the Runewords plugin lists every combination and which are active on your gear.

1-socket Runewords

2-socket Runewords

3-socket Runewords
