Pets are allowed on the island, but not on the landers or in the minigame itself. Some players bring items to cast High Level Alchemy or Humidify while they wait for the landers to fill up. However, with that many players attempting to join a game at once, there is minimal wait time between games. With large amounts of players all attempting to join a game at once, priority levels can exceed 5+. The higher the priority number, the more likely the player will be taken in the next load. A player not taken in the first load of 25 players is assigned a priority number for the lander, starting at 1 and rising by 1 with each load that leaves without the player. Sometimes, far more than 25 players may attempt to get on a lander. In busy Pest Control worlds, the landers, particularly the level 40 novice one, can fill up quickly. Otherwise, players must wait 2 minutes after at least 5 players have boarded the lander for the game to begin, and can start earlier if there are 5 players and no one else appears to be embarking the lander. If the lander fills with 25 players, the game will begin automatically. Anyone who wishes to play must board a lander. This experience penalty did not apply when doing damage to portals.Ī game of Pest Control can be played by 5 to 25 players. 4 damage granted 8xp in attack rather than 16xp). Prior to this, players would earn 1/2 the experience they would normally receive for damage dealt (e.g.

Your barricade repair speed correlates to the attack speed of the weapon you have equipped, so having a fast weapon such as a dart equipped will allow you to repair barricades much more quickly.Īs of 18 December 2014, Pest Control now grants full experience when dealing damage in the minigame. You gain 5 Crafting experience per repair. For repairing barricades it is strongly advised that you finish the Easy Kandarin Diary for Kandarin headgear for double log output from normal trees. This allows for players who do not want to train combat-related skills to also receive points. Players who struggle to maintain their activity via attacking enemies may find it easier to repair the barricades and gates.

Repairing barricades or gates on the island will also give this higher increase in activity, as well as grant a low amount of Crafting experience. Performing attacks on standard enemies will award a moderate increase in activity, while performing attacks on Portals and Spinners will award a higher increase in activity.

Should the activity bar drop below the required amount, it will turn red and no points will be awarded for that game. In order to receive commendation points, a player must consistently maintain their activity bar throughout the duration of a game. To use the veteran lander, a player must have a combat level of 100 or higher.

To use the intermediate lander, a player must have a combat level of 70 or higher.A minimum combat level of 40 is required to use the novice lander.The only requirement to participate in a game of Pest Control is to have a combat level of 40 or above. This makes using these potions for Pest Control somewhat expensive, as each game will require a new dose from each potion. All stats are restored to their normal levels at the end of each game, meaning stat boosts of various potions like Super sets do not carry over from game to game. In addition, Hitpoints, Prayer points, special attack, and run energy are fully restored at the end of each game. Players who die keep their items, respawn on the lander, and can rejoin combat immediately.

The activity is divided into three landers access to each lander is determined by combat level. Players board landers, which transport them to islands under invasion. It is run by an order of Guthix known as the Void Knights. The activity is played in the name of Guthix to retain balance in the world, which may be disrupted by an influx of monsters invading islands in the south of the world. Players must defend the Void Knight from an onslaught of monsters, while at the same time destroying the portals from which the monsters spawn. Pest Control is a co-operative members-only combat-based activity. All information on mechanics and strategy will be on this page.
