Points System and Rewards
The Points system is a first for Deadman, having made its first appearance in Fresh Start Worlds. We’ve made a handful of tweaks to this system in the hopes that this gives more players than ever before a constant stream of goals to chase and generates activity in a wide variety of locales, meaning any would-be PKer roaming the world never knows who they might run into and any would-be Points farmer needs to be constantly on their toes. A new HiScores page will be added so that you can see how you stack up against other players, and those among you who rise through the ranks by earning huge quantities of points will give yourself better chances at earning a slice of Deadman: Apocalypse’s $20,000 prizepool!
You can earn points by doing more or less anything in-game, but we’ve put together a table for the specifics, which should look more-or-less familiar to those of you who played Fresh Start Worlds. We’re excited to see how this plays out in a more dangerous environment, where players will likely find particularly effective point sources that become competitive resources all on their own, leaving you to weigh up the Points you stand to earn against the PvP combat that’s likely to become more prevalent. Adaptability is king, so make sure you always have a plan B if you want to stay one step ahead of your competition.
| Activity | Points Awarded |
| Breaches | 1 per damage dealt to the Breach bosses. |
| Clue Scrolls |
|
| Combat Achievement Tasks |
|
| Combat Achievement Tier Completion |
The completion bonus is equal to the Points given for all tasks individually, divided by two. For example, there are 33 Easy tasks, each giving 4 Points, so the Easy Tier completion bonus is (33 * 4) / 2 = 66 Points. |
| Combat Achievement Boss Completion | The completion bonus is equal to the Points given for all of a boss’ tasks individually, divided by two. For example, Cerberus has 4 Elite and 2 Master tasks, so the completion bonus is: ((64 * 4) + (100 * 2)) / 2 = 228 Points. |
| Achievement Diary Task |
|
| Achievement Diary Tier Completion | The completion bonus is equal to the Points given for all tasks individually, divided by two. For example, the Ardougne Medium diary has 12 tasks, so the completion bonus is: (12 * 12) / 2 = 72 Points. |
| Quest Points | 10 per Quest Point. |
| PvM – First Boss Kill | The first kill of every boss is given a multiplier of 20x. For example, if a boss ordinarily gives 4 points, your first kill will give 80 points. Gotta catch ’em all! |
| PvM – Solo Boss Kill | Varies depending on a number of factors, including difficulty and risk. |
| PvM – Team Boss Kill | These include the likes of Nex, Vet’ion, Venenatis, Callisto and Raids, among others. Varies depending on a number of factors, including difficulty and risk. Multiple players receive points on completion. |
| PvM – 101+ killcount | Points awarded for kills beyond your 100th will be halved. Meaning if a boss gives 10 Points per kill, your 101st kill onwards will reward you with 5 Points. |
| Skilling |
As such, maxing would provide (2245 Level-ups * 4) + (23 Level 99s * 300) = 15,880 Points. |
There are absolutely loads of ways to earn points – all you need to do is get out there and make gains, but be weary of PKers and remember thatnowhereis safe! Even if you think you’re in a comfortable instance, players can (and will) kill you on the way there and back, so make sure you’re always on your toes…
Corrupted Weapons
Corrupted weaponry is new to Deadman: Apocalypse. In case you missed it in our initial blog, these pieces of equipment are weaker versions of some pinnacle gear that won’t carry over with you to permanent Deadman at the end of Apocalypse. Corrupted weapons canonlybe obtained by killing monsters at Breaches, so it’s important to get involved and participate at Breaches where possible if you’re looking to give yourself a leg up on the competition.
Additionally, we’ve opted to give Corrupted weaponry reduced requirements compared to their ‘normal’ alternatives, in the hopes that you might be able to get use out of them earlier or perhaps give you new things to think about when settling on your build’s stats. Here’s a list of all six Corrupted weapons, their requirements, and how they differ from their regular variant!
- Corrupted Voidwaker. Requires 65 Attack. Stats are 20% lower than Voidwaker.
- Corrupted Dragon claws. Requires 40 Attack. Stats are 20% lower than Dragon claws.
- Corrupted Armadyl godsword. Requires 65 Attack. Stats are 20% lower than Armadyl godsword.
- Corrupted Twisted bow. Requires 70 Ranged. Stats are 20% lower than Twisted bow, Ranged Strength is reduced from 20 to 2.
- Corrupted Scythe of Vitur. Requires 60 Attack, 70 Strength. Stats are 20% lower than the Scythe of Vitur. Additionally, is charged usingonlyBlood runes, meaning it can be charged from anywhere in the game, with no Vials of blood required.
- Corrupted Tumeken’s shadow. Requires 75 Magic. The passive ‘Equipped gear Magic Accuracy and Magic Damage multiplier’ effect is reduced from 3x to 2x in most places, and from 4x to 3x inside Tombs of Amascut.
While these are no substitute for the real deal, they still pack aseriouspunch and are much more reliably obtainable throughout Deadman: Apocalypse’s 3-week duration, so make sure to get to as many Breaches as possible and be prepared to fight for your chance at snagging some of the gear listed above!
