The dexterous and arcane scrolls were further made twice as common. |
| 26 January 2017 (Update) |
The dexterous prayer scroll was further split to exclude Augury (now unlocked via arcane prayer scroll) so that the cost to unlock the Augury prayer would not be tied to the much higher cost to unlock Rigour. |
