User:5-x/Item research

Info: This is my research page listing interesting items in RuneScape 3. The areas of focus are items particularly hard to obtain, with unusual mechanics, unique properties, as well as glitched and/or outdated ones. The lists are incomplete and the research is ongoing. If you find anything worth adding, let me know on my talk page.

List of wieldable items that enable pre-EoC basic set of animations (idle stance/walking/running)

 * 1) Gnomeball
 * 2) Water balloons (from SoF, discontinued)
 * 3) God chisels (2h)
 * 4) Clan vexillum
 * 5) Orb of oculus (2h)
 * 6) Mud pie
 * 7) Snowball
 * 8) Flagstaff of festivities (unconfirmed, might be patched now)
 * 9) Pet rock (2h)
 * 10) Tambourine
 * 11) Mega-phonus
 * 12) Mouse toy
 * 13) Zamorak flag (Castle wars, 2h)
 * 14) Saradomin flag (Castle wars, 2h)
 * 15) Toy kite (animations slightly altered, with unique holding animation)
 * 16) Smouldering tansymum (initial wielding animation glitched, restricted to Oo'glog area)
 * 17) Smouldering fever grass (initial wielding animation glitched, restricted to Oo'glog area)
 * 18) Smouldering lavender (initial wielding animation glitched, restricted to Oo'glog area)

All main-hand items unless 2h noted. Additionally, equipping any shield cancels out the old animation and turns it into the post-EoC one. The list is probably nearly-complete or even already complete, I've been unable to find any new items for this category for some time.

Other items of interest
(section to be expanded and divided)
 * 1) Tea flask has a unique drinking animation that is derived from the old motionless stance. The motionless stance fragments can (could?) also be found in the Shadow of the Storm quest in the incantation cutscene (possibly removed now).
 * 2) Spinning a Spinning plate reverts the player to the pre-EoC idle stance.
 * 3) Zuriel's staff and Corrupt zuriel's staff have escaped the graphical overhaul of PvP armors due to an oversight by Jagex (new model of the staff has been shown in teaser pictures and on a homepage banner, but wasn't updated in-game).

Things to be tested

 * 1) Can smouldering items be somehow placed in the inventory?
 * 2) Is it possible to reobtain the plague outfit? (most likely not)

Recently updated

 * 1) Yaktwee stick (has post-EoC set of animations now)
