Welcome to our advertisement thread!


We're really glad you've decided to have a look at our advertisement thread. We know you're probably ready to see some pictures (or possibly already have), so we'll keep our explanation of what exactly Alora is short and sweet. We're a brand new server that has been in development for well over a year now and we have paid the closest attention to detail that we can, to provide our amazing community with the best OSRS private server experience possible!

Now, you may be asking yourselves what makes this server different from the hundreds of others already out there already? And I welcome your scepticism, providing a
brief outline of our goals and the comprehensive experience we aim to provide, something we haven't seen perfected in any other server until now!

Server Features:

• A perfect balance between PvP and Economy
• A realistic feeling in every aspect of the server ranging from combat with accurate formulas, timing and switching to a wilderness target system similar to that of OSRS
• The latest OSRS content, with tools designed to help us dump and pack new data with ease, nearly as soon as it is released!
• A wide range of dungeons and training areas, including but not limited to: Demonic Gorillas, Lizard Shamans, (Nieve's) Stronghold Slayer Cave and more
• All of the Wilderness bosses
• Fully functional skills using Oldschool content such as Rooftop Agility courses
• An optional High-definition feature on the client, using real OpenGL
• Full integration between the website, forum and server
• Professional and mature staff team
• The most content packed OSRS server to date!

FAQ:

Spoiler: Click here to view pictures/videos of Alora

When was Alora released?

The server launched on Friday the 4th of November 2016.

What server is Alora based on?

Hyperion

Does Alora feature content solely from OSRS?

Currently there are no plans for major content from any different eras of Runescape, unless suggested from our community.

What is the XP rate?

We have a good mix between an Economy and PVP server, the XP rate of Alora is moderate to high especially for combat skills.

What is the drop rate?

Similar to the previous question, the drop rate is moderate to high for general items that allow players to begin their adventure in the wilderness, but certain items like godswords, dragon war hammer's and such will be considerably more difficult to achieve.

Does Alora have frequent updates?

Yes we do, all updates are posted on the forums here for players to keep up to date with the latest updates!

Can Alora be found on any communication platforms?

Yes, in fact we just recently opened up our Discord server which is similar to TeamSpeak. You can join in on this by clicking the Discord link below.

Hello everyone,

We apologize for the lack of updates the past week, as Jason and myself(as well as much of the staff team) have been busy due to the holidays! Nonetheless, we hope this update satisfies all of your needs!

A special thanks to @[member="uTorrent"] for helping out with content testing/suggestions!

• Gambling changes:
  • Castle wars is now the new gambling area
  • Type ::gamble to get there
  • Gambler walks around shouting out tips
  • Dice bag has been added to the donation store

  • Private messages from ignored players will no longer appear
  • Fixed login issue(forever connecting to server) but you will need to redownload the latest client if you were affected by this!
• Miscellaneous:
  • Fixed mime mask issue where you'd note it and it turns into a pineapple pizza
  • Exchange prices(for items kept on death/trading post purposes) increase for:
    • Granite maul from 34k -> 1.34M

• Voting fixed:
  • Voting has changed a bit but still has some work left to do. You now have to vote on 3/4 websites to get an auth!
  • For some users, it worked perfectly on release, while it did not work at all for others. This was due to their IP address being IPV6 instead of IPV4, and this has since been corrected. If anyone else has trouble with voting, please pm me directly so that I could debug the issue.
• Downloads page added to website:
  • This will give players the option to choose between the client updater/launcher, or the latest version of the client ZIP.

    • The victim's magic prayers (eg. Mystic might) affect their defence against magic attacks as intended.
      • In this way, having Mystic will/lore/might will actually increase your protection against Magic attacks as your own Magic level/prayers are taken into account for your defence.

    • Now stuns for 3 seconds as intended
  • Dark bow special attack fixed:
    • Now uses 55% instead of 65%

  • Nonetheless, be sure to use a middleman!
• 2FA System fixed:
  • The two-step authentication system in-game has been rewritten:
  • You can now properly remove MACs from your allowed list
  • Unfortunately, this also means your old saved macs were removed and you must re-add them!

Hey guys, we're hosting a PvP video-making competition with a great prize for the best video, which can be found at this link: PK Video Competition(01/01/17 - 15/01/14) - Server Events & Competitions!
We're also working on some HUGE updates involving PvP, clan chat, and banking! I'll be showing off some more stuff soon but here's a little teaser for the new bank:

 

Hey guys,


I hope you all enjoyed your holidays the past few weeks! To start the new year off, we've decided to correctly re-do Alora's bank system, so that we can have cool things like placeholders and a main tab that shows all other tabs. We've completely redone the code for the banking, and we're sure you'll enjoy this update! Unfortunately your bank tabs will be reset, but you'll have an easy time getting it all set back up with the new mechanics Additionally, the much needed Clan chat ranks are also released, as this has been due for a long time now.

• [Updates]
• Technical:
  • Changed the way the trading post/clan chats are saved to reduce stress on the server
• Miscellaneous:
  • Christmas event removed
  • Trade screen fixes:
  • Fixed trade screen not showing "Other player has accepted.." which broke on the last update
  • Switching has been improved even further(sometimes on 5+ way switches 1 item would not equip)
  • There was also an issue where the client would sometimes try to click another item on a right-click option. This has been fixed.
  • Fixed sound effects for wind spells
  • Gulls(seagulls) near Relleka now fly around as intended
  • Although Wyvern bones experience was fixed in a previous update, the experience received for bones on altar
  • was not fixed. It is now correct and matches Dragon bones.
• Client fixes:
  • Toggles should now be updated more quickly:
  • Eg. if you click the run/quickpray orbs, they should update instantly, they were previously delayed
    • See: http://i.imgur.com/E45sgLO.gif
  • This also fixed piety/chivarly delay when being clicked, as well as the improper sound.
  • Fixed small issue with hitpoint orb icon
• Clan Chat Ranks completed:
  • You can now rank friends in your clan
    • All ranks work properly
  • Minimum ranks
    • You may set a minimum join rank
    • You may set a minimum speak rank
    • You may set a minimum kick rank
  • Kicking:
  • You can now kick others from your chat, which will ban them from re-entering for 30 minutes.
    • To unban them, you can simply set them to any friends rank higher than "none".
  • This allows us to set official CC ranks for things like: Ironman CC, Gamble CC, etc.
    • These ranks will have to be set manually by staff to people who are worthy of a rank, eg. Knowledgeable and helpful ironmen, or trusted hosts.
• Banking system redone to match OSRS
  • Main tab which allows you to view/drag between all other tabs
    • Searching between all tabs at the same time
  • Less delays when switching between tabs
  • Less bug-prone code
  • Tab header options(Roman numerals/digits)
  • Bank now remembers the last position you were at rather than resetting to the top
  • Bank allows you to withdraw-*last_amount* that you withdrew
  • Scrollbar scaling
    • The scrollbar will now fit to the size of the items in the interface
  • Placeholders
    • Placeholders can now be set/released.
    • You can also toggle the placeholder setting so that placeholders will always be set when an item hits 0.
• Magic mechanics fixed
  • Splashing spells will now still reward you with the base experience(for Magic, but not hitpoints)
  • Damage map fixes for players using Magic
• Dragon claws added
  • Dragon claws are now available in the PvP shop
  • We've even managed to use the real 2010 graphics/animation for the Dragon claws
    • The OSRS team re-designed it, but it wasn't quite as smooth as the original!
  • All OSRS bonuses/special attack mechanics
• Wilderness changes:
  • Changes to "Eligibility" for PKP/emblems:
    • To receive emblems/pkp, and from this update forward also killcounts and killstreaks, you must:
    • Kill someone risking at least (Combat level 100+) 100K or (Combat level < 100) 50k
    • Kill someone with a different IP than you
    • Kill someone with a different MAC than you
    • Kill someone who you haven't killed within the last 10 minutes
      • A new "map" has been created to remember everyone who you've killed rather than 1 person
      • *This means if you are not eligible for PKP on a kill, your killcount and killstreak will not increase
  • Emblems now award PKP as well as GP at these rates:
    • Tier 1 120k GP 96 PKP
    • Tier 2 200k GP 160 PKP
    • Tier 3 320k GP 256 PKP
    • Tier 4 480k GP 384 PKP

    • Tier 9 5.6m GP 3072 PKP

  • Emblems now upgrade when you kill someone on death(this mechanic was previously broken):
    • You do not need to kill a target to upgrade an emblem in your inventory
      • As long as your kill is eligible for PKP(not same IP/Mac, not a recently killed person, etc) you will also receive pkp.
  • Tier 1 emblem drop changes on target kill:
    • Ironman can now receive emblems
    • Players can now receive emblems when killing ironmen targets
    • Chance to get Tier 1 emblem has changed:
      • As long as you are eligible for PKP, the chance to get an emblem on a target kill is 50%.
  • PKP Exchange changes:
    • Crystal shield price fixed
    • Ballista price lowered
    • ***All prices reduced by 30%**
      • We've realized that the PKP prices are quite high, and for PKing to be decently profitable they needed to be reduced.
  • Banned players no longer appear on the KDR scoreboard in-game
    • This is to deter farmers from claiming the top spots on the scoreboard
• Achievement fixes:

    • As soon as a duel starts, it will auto-complete this task since ironmen cannot stake items or GP
• Clue scroll changes
  • 1-step clue scroll bug fixed
  • Clue hunter armour:
    • There is now a random chance to obtain Clue hunter armour when completing a Hard/Elite clue scroll!
    • Rates for donators: (+4% to all for Elite clue scrolls)

    • This potion will have the effects of both a Super restore and Superantipoison
  • Super energy added to shops
  • Guthix rest is now noted in shop, and has increased in price

Hello everyone,


Today's update consists of many bug fixes but also plenty of new content! A few days ago, raids were released on OSRS and we've begun working on them to get them to you as soon as we can. In the meantime, here are the latest updates:

NOTE: You must restart your client to obtain the latest version!

  • Teleblock issues fixed:
    • Fixed spam-teleblock bug which didn't allow you to attack a player who was already teleblocked

    • If you spec someone against a wall, it will not try to run them to the other side of the wall.
• New Duel Arena System:
  • The new OSRS duel arena has been implemented!
    • Due to the amount of scam reports the staff team has had to deal with, the new duel arena system seemed like a great option to deter scamming.
  • We've implemented the new system with the following useful features:
    • View other player's inventory/equipment (without showing amounts of any item)
    • No switch weapon ~ You will not be able to switch your weapon once the duel starts

• Miscellaneous:
  • Fallback for bug abuse ~ If you do manage to get out of a minigame, you will not be able to duel.
  • Dragon claws are also now tradable
• Raids items teaser:
  • Everyone is excited about raids coming out, OSRS and Alora players alike! We wanted to give everyone a small taste of what the raids items are like, so we've added these 3 components to the website store:
    • Elder maul
      • Similar to the Chaotic maul, this powerful weapon provides a heavy blow to any formidable opponent.
    • Ancestral robes set
      • A magical set of robes, in which each component provides a magic damage boost.
      • The entire 3-piece set provides a 6% boost to Magical damage!
    • Kodai wand
      • The strongest of the wands, the Kodai wand provides a 15% boost to all Magical damage!
  • Raids are being worked on as we speak, but it is a huge job which will takeat least 10 days, which is why we've decided to release a few of the items early while the hype is extremely high. Keep an eye out for more Raids information soon!

        • #3: Emblem between tiers 1-4
      • For the player who dealt the most damage, Skotizo will upgrade an existing emblem in their inventory.

Sneak peak:






Hope that you guys enjoy this update!

Hey guys, we're currently working on raids, and hoping to have them released soon, here's a little teaser of one of the rooms!

 

It's not too late to come join before the weekend events start!

 

We've received many requests from ironmen who wanted to transfer to the normal game mode, so we don't want to limit them in any way. With that being said, there will definitely be a cost for players who have more than 1 hour of playtime(as a sort of lenience for new players who chose the wrong game mode, it will be free for the first hour).

UIM/degrading may very well be released later tonight if all goes as plan, so make sure to keep an eye on the updates!

Here's a teaser of the Twisted bow in action(a bit too strong in my opinion, but we will follow OSRS's combat stats for all of the weapons!)

 

Hello everyone,

Make sure to take advantage of the 1.5x XP, Vote points, PKP and Barrows points event happening right now for the weekend!
Today's update includes the highly anticipated Ultimate ironman mode for those who are craving a more challenging style of gameplay! This mode also includes its respective highscores tab to keep track of the top players.

Note: We had some issues with our donation system earlier tonight(a mistake that had to do with the addition of UIM), but this has been corrected. If you have not yet received your items, it should come within the hour. If not, please post a support topic in regards to it.
