Skill Capes & Diango Improvements Patch Week
This week we've focused on bringing you a batch of fixes and improvements. Take a look through the list below.
Skillcapes Toggle
You asked, and we delivered! This update will allow you to toggle between both your old and new skillcapes, plus you'll be able to keepsake both versions too and toggle individual skillcapes at the skillcape vendors.
Your new model has been updated and the older versions now have hooded versions.
Diango Interface
Diango's store has been given a fresh lick of paint and interface improvements – head into game now to take a look at the update.
Solomon's Store – Companion Pet Familiar Overrides
Your companion pets are lovely little critters – many of which you enjoy taking on your many adventures, and we think that they deserve to be more involved! To that end, your summoned familiars can now take on the appearance of your companion pets!
Much like your Legendary pets, any companion pet you own can now be used as an override for your summoned familiar. The familiar will still retain all of its special abilities and combat effectiveness, but look like your beloved companion pets!
Note that an overridden familiar will lose it's appearance should you enter a PvP area.
Simply locate the pet you want to use as an override in the Pet interface and hit the ‘Override Familiar' button and the bottom of the interface. That's it! Your familiar will now take on the appearance of that pet!
And to celebrate this, Solomon has put all companion pets in his store at half price this week! Pick up a pet you've been eyeing up and take it all over Gielinor – there's nothing quite as cute as Zenn fighting by your side!
Other Patch Notes
That's not all we've been working on. Check out the forum post for details on more patch notes.
In Other News
We've got a few new things to try out in BETA, including the new death mechanics we've been talking about on the forums, and a new way of collecting loot.
All going well, the Legacy/EoC mashup feature should be making it's way to the live game this month. This lets you to choose the combat and interface modes independently, for example allowing you to run Legacy combat with the New Interface System, or Legacy interfaces with EoC. Thanks for the feedback you provided on the features being tested on the BETA servers so far.

The following fixes and tweaks have now been implemented. If you believe a change has not been documented, either in the patch notes or the news posts for this week's update, please detail the change so that it may be added.
As always, be sure to submit a bug report should you encounter a gameplay bug or graphical glitch in-game.
Skills, D&Ds & Minigames:
Familiars can no longer practice agility on the Hefin serenity posts. Clan avatars still can, because they need the exercise.
Quests, Challenges and Achievements:
Dominion markers can no longer be smuggled into New Varrock.
Other:
Players are no longer able to perform higher-cost special attacks at a lower cost by switching weapons in PvP combat.
Players will no longer disconnect if they try to recolour a pet with no pet selected.
Players who tag creatures they don't have the required Slayer level to kill will no longer receive loot when those creature are killed by other players.
Ninja fixes:
The Slayer skillcape will now show the correct icon in the Player-owned House cape rack.
Some skillcape sellers that had been left out have now been given the correct capes and hair colours:
- Martin the Master Gardener will now wear the Farming skillcape during the Bringing Home the Bacon quest.
- Hickton will now wear the correct shirt.
- Ajjat and Ignatius Vulcan have had their hair re-dyed.
- Ajjat will now wear a trimmed skillcape of Attack.
- The estate agent's outfit will now be the correct colour.
- Cap'n Izzy No-Beard and the estate agent will now wear the correct skillcapes during quest cutscenes.
The Circus overlay now uses the minigame HUD.
Players can now see their summoned familiar's lifepoints in the 'Follower Details' tab.
A sub-interface has been added to the Prayer interface to display current active combat buffs.
The Amulet of Zealots has been boosted slightly.
The animations used when catching implings have been updated.
The Duckness has been shelved for the time being, only playing on Katys Noob for the moment!

I'm pleased with this one: "Players can now see their summoned familiar's lifepoints in the 'Follower Details' tab."
