Clan Citadel


 * "Citadel" redirects here. Did you mean Slug Citadel?

Clan Citadels will be released on 26 July 2011 to clans who have five or more subscribing members. They were first introduced in a teaser on the RuneScape homepage. In the news post announcing the impending update, The RuneScape Team stated that the update will be members only and claimed that Clan Citadels would be very customizable and would be tiered. It also showed that clan members would have to collect resources to build them.

There will be dozens of hotspots for you and your clan to make your own. Of these hotspots, a maximum of seven are skill-related, allowing players and their clans to train skills together. Although the XP received will be slightly lower than would be received on the surface of RuneScape, skilling there will contribute to the maintenance of the citadel, allowing players and clans to upgrade it from tier 1 to tier 7. As the citadel gets upgraded, players and clans gain access to better customization options and even more hotspots. Contribute enough to the weekly upkeep of the citadel and players will have access to a clan ring, which will give a temporary 1.5x multiplier in certain skill tasks about RuneScape.

Each clan can gather in many areas of their clan citadel – in meeting rooms, a senate, a party room – but the centrepiece is the clan battlefield. This offers players and their clan a large area to battle together or face-off against other clans, and a full-blown Battlefield Editor to create combat situations or minigames.

There will be over 4,000 new models and over 20,000 new animation frames added to the game for Clan Citadels. More information about Clan Citadels will be revealed over the course of the month, with a clan blog on the 7th.

Resources can NOT be taken out of the citadel.

Unlike the Clan Cloaks, it requires you to have 5 currently subscribed members in your clan at all times.

It has been hinted by Mod Petal that the boulders that fell on 2 July 2011 are connected to the Clan Citadels.

Clan citadels will probably be the first content in runescape to feature sky boxes, as the clan citadels teasers contains them, and Mod Nexus stated "The video footage is all from in-game. We didn't "cheat" or use post effects to make it look prettier or shinier, it really does look like that."

The teaser trailer for clan citadels resembles the film "Stargate", where a team of diggers unearth an unknown portal and begin trying to find out what it does.And once they do they send a team of explorers through.
