World Events - the World Tree & the Meteor
Every 30 minutes the Aetherheart World Tree or the Titansteel Meteor appears on the home island. Triple Skilling Points, kindling, Titansteel ore and Starvein Dust.
Two events, one cadence
Both events roam the home island and respawn 30 minutes after they last appeared. A world broadcast announces each one and the side panel shows a compass bearing and the tile - walk there or use ::home and follow the arrow.
| Aetherheart World Tree | Titansteel Meteor | |
|---|---|---|
| Skill | Woodcutting 80 | Mining 140 |
| Tool | Any hatchet | Olympian pickaxe or Cyclopean Pickaxe |
| Drops | World-tree kindling | Titansteel ore + 1/100 Starvein Dust |
| Lasts | 500 chops or 30 minutes | 500 ore or 15 minutes |
| Where | One of the skilling districts - quarry, wisps, farm, theatre, market, Pharos | Anywhere on the island |
| Skilling Points | 3x | 3x |
Both despawn at whichever limit comes first, and the 30-minute timer starts at spawn, so the cadence is a clean half hour regardless of how fast the event is stripped.
The Aetherheart World Tree
A 4x4 tree with a Chop-down option. Its kindling is the material for the
Blood Beaver (500 kindling), and the beaver in turn doubles the kindling you get from every future tree. 500 chops server-wide is not many with a crowd on it - be there when it rises.
The Titansteel Meteor
An amethyst-streaked rock, and the bulk source of Titansteel: the fixed vein in the quarry holds five ore a charge, the meteor holds hundreds. It is gated exactly like the vein - 140 Mining and the Olympian pickaxe or better. Each successful swing also rolls 1 in 100 for
Starvein Dust, announced world-wide, and the same 1 in 20,000 Blood orb roll that runite carries.
The 2,500 Titansteel bars for the
Cyclopean Pickaxe and the 1,000 for the
Aura of the Jack-of-Trades are sized around camping this event. See Mining & Smithing.
The tree and the meteor go through the normal gathering hooks, so the
Aura of the Jack-of-Trades, the
Efficiency Totem, the Harvest tree's Bountiful and Harvest doubling, and the hatchet's double-log chance all apply. The Efficiency Totem is especially good here - 500 ore of Titansteel is stackable, but kindling banked straight from the tree means never leaving the queue.
