Hey everyone — BrwN here.
Old ClassicKBD just got two big quality-of-life updates: a redesigned Slayer assignment panel, and full in-game Highscores. Update your client through the ClassicKBD Launcher, then launch Old.
---
## Slayer — choose your assignment tier
The old automatic “pick a pool from your levels” Start button is gone. You now pick the Assignment Tier you want, then press Start Assignment.

How it works
- Open Slayer (button under the stats pane, next to Hiscores)
- Use < / > to cycle tiers (locked tiers are still viewable)
- Press Start Assignment to get a random task from that tier’s monster pool
If you try to start a locked tier you’ll get a clear message, e.g. You need Slayer level 110 to start Elite Slayer assignments.
Kill counting, XP, mission complete, and dungeon unlocks are unchanged — this is a selection / UI upgrade, not a rewrite of Slayer progression.

## In-game Highscores
Browse the Top 50 without leaving the client. Rankings are for Old ClassicKBD characters only.

How to open
- Click Hiscores under the stats pane (next to Slayer)
- Or type ::hiscores / ::highscores in chat
Features
- Overall + per-skill boards (Old’s full skill list, including Slayer & Agility)
- Search by player name
- Your rank at the bottom
- Click a name for an in-game character profile (levels, XP, and ranks) — no website popup
Clan Rankings tab is a stub for now.
---
Client update required — close the game, reopen the launcher, and launch Old so it pulls the new jar.
Thanks for playing.
