Leagues VI Just Got Another Free Reset (and a Big Pile of Fixes)
The May 6th update is mostly a cleanup pass on Leagues VI: Demonic Pacts, and the headline is simple. Everyone gets another free Pact reset. It triggers the next time you open the Pacts interface, so if a build hasn't been working out, now's the time to rip it up and try something weird.
Jagex was upfront that some balancing changes won't make it into this League, which is why they're handing out the reset instead. Translation: experiment freely, because the meta is still wobbling.
⚔️ Relic and Combat Achievement Fixes That Matter
A lot of these are quiet blockers getting removed, but a few are worth actually knowing about:
Thorns no longer block magic-only CAs: You can finally finish "magic only" tasks like killing Barrows Brothers and the Crazy Archaeologist while running thorns.
Piety and Chivalry stay unlocked: Picking Kandarin with the Grimoire relic no longer wipes them.
Abyssal Tentacle saves charges: It's now affected by regeneration nodes.
Lithic Sceptre fixes: No longer loses charges on the Flask of Fervour, and it works again inside Tombs of Amascut's "Overly Draining" invocation.
Flask of Fervour invuln got real: It now clears bleed, poison and venom, negates all PvP damage, and accounts for overheal-draining Pacts.
There's also a stack of auto-completing tasks (His Faithful Servants, "I was here first!", and the Yama CA "No toppings, no drinks, thanks" now works with healing Pacts) plus gear-swap tasks that finally recognise Avernic Treads, Primordial Boots, and the various trimmed and black armour variants. If a task was bugged out for you before, go check it again.
🏆 Firsts Board and a Doom of Mokhaiotl Fix
There's now a Leagues Info Board in Yama's lair showing the GOATs of Leagues VI: first raid clears, first to 200m XP in a skill, all the bragging rights. Worth a look if you want to see how far ahead the no-lifers already are.
One non-Leagues note that affects everyone: during Doom of Mokhaiotl's orb phase, double-hitting weapons like the Infernal Tecpatl and Shadowflame Quadrant will no longer spawn and instantly despawn the orb. Solid fix if you've been fighting it on the main game.
⛵ Sailing Looting Got Way Less Annoying
The Herb Sack, Seed Box, and Rune Pouch now work when looting Sailing creatures (the sack and box need to be open, and rune-picking behaviour toggled on). There's also a new NPC, Isles, who loiters outside the Port Roberts bank and will follow you to the Grimstone Ancient Furnace to unnote cannonball bars for 100 coins each. And Telekinetic Grab now pulls loot and Lost Crates without making you re-click the cannon every time. Small stuff individually, but it adds up fast over a long grind.
