Changes: RuneMetrics

Revision as of 01:20, 5 March 2016

RuneMetrics is an in-game and website based analytics tool that was released on 22 February 2016.^[1] It will be replacing the Adventurer's Log in the near future.^[2] All players are able to access an experience tracker and drop log, as well as basic website functions, in addition to the old XP tracker.^[3]

There is also the option to subscribe to RuneMetrics Pro to gain full access to the tool's features. The subscription service has the ability to make calculations about a player's gameplay, as well as simply counting their experience and drop gains. RuneMetrics Pro is purchasable for £3.59 or 1 bond per month. Players who have bought the 2016 gold membership package had access to RuneMetrics Pro for two weeks and are able to buy access for £1.79 or 1 bond per 2 months. This discount offer will be available for gold premier club members for the entirety of 2016.^[4] Free-to-play players are also able to purchase RuneMetrics Pro.^[5]
