Update history

The update history project is a work-in-progress – not all updates to this topic may be covered below. See here for how to help out!

• patch 14 December 2020 (Update):
  • We're always paying close attention to your feedback to determine how we can make our content better, and Yak Track is no exception! Here's a few of the changes and fixes we've made this time:
    • Task Scaling Adjustments
      • Agility tasks will now allow players to complete any Agility course they meet the level requirement to use, instead of being scaled to the player's level.
      • Similarly, Dungeoneering tasks now allow you to complete any floor you have the level requirement for.
      • The quantity of items required for Herblore and Crafting tasks no longer scale based on your level - all players must now carry out the same number of actions.
      • Quantities required for Herblore tasks have been significantly reduced, bringing down the cost of completing them.
      • Summoning tasks are now less restrictive and allow you to create a wider range of pouches.
    • Gain XP Tasks
      • Construction tasks have been replaced with a 'Gain Construction XP' task, allowing players to progress as they choose.
      • Archaeology restoration tasks have been replaced with a generic 'Gain Archaeology XP' task.
      • Smithing tasks have been replaced by a 'Gain Smithing XP' task, allowing players to smith efficiently while making progress.
    • New Tasks
      • Present Hunt (This Track Only): A new kind of task where you're asked to track down presents all over Gielinor using a set of Magical jingle bells.
      • Earn Marks of War: A new type of combat task that'll see you killing bosses and collecting Marks of War.
    • Miscellaneous Task Improvements
      • Herblore master cape recipes now advance Herblore tasks by 5 instead of 1 - because you're making 5 potions!
      • The Divine Conversion Relic now correctly advances Divination tasks.
      • One progress point is now awarded per segment of the Anachronia Agility Course, since it's so massive compared to the others.
      • Two new courses have been added to Agility tasks:
        • Ape Atoll
        • Agility Pyramid
      • Corrupted magic logs now count towards Firemaking tasks.
      • Raw wobbegong now count towards Fishing tasks.
      • Wobbegong oil now counts towards Cooking tasks.

  • Players can now hand in eggs to Benedict regardless of how much of Benedict's World Tour has been completed.
