Mobilising Armies/Glitches

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

This shows how players may access the attack menu while playing Mobilising Armies

There have been several glitches in the Mobilising Armies minigame, such as these:

• When talking to Serjeant Cole and another player talks at the same time it caused the text to overlay.
• A two-line message will also overlay itself when you try to promote your squads without the required rank.
• There have been reports of a glitch that makes you lose items. If you log out during the tutorial, you will lose items. (Confirmed, many posts on Official RuneScape Forums), some players have logged out while in the tutorial without losing items.
• If you have a title before your name, such as Junior Cadet, the Quick Chat button will show up at the end of your name, but to access the actual interface you have to click where the button would be had you not had a title before your name.
• There is a glitch where you keep your rank prefix outside of the Mobilising Armies area.
• On the day of the release there was a glitch that almost nobody could get into a game of Siege, Hoard or Rescue. Jagex fixed this glitch on 10 July 2009.
• During some games, the quick chat of your battling teams will be added with the quick chat of another battle that is currently taking place. This would make it so one player of a certain colour would see another player using quick chat within the game with the same team colour (i.e. A yellow player would chat "Good Luck Everybody" and see another yellow player say the same phrase.) It also will make phrases such as "Team 3 was defeated" appear in the quick chat box even though the team 3 may still be alive.

• From July 28 to July 30, you could only claim 300 reward points, no matter how much you invested. This was quickly fixed due to the high amount of complaints.
• The Inferior Locator allowed players to get into an inaccessible area north of the Tree Gnome Stronghold. It has now been fixed.
• In certain areas of the game, you can talk freely without the word censor blocking out previously censored words.
• It is possible to move a squad into the ocean if you use the "spread" formation and the squad starts off already half immersed in water. You can move it freely in any mode or get it to explore and collect items for you. This glitch still exists and some players use it to stay alive and untouched till the end of the game to annoy their opponents.
• While doing the Fishing skillcape emote the certain parts of Serjeant Gloves would stretch.
• When you teleport with the Superior locator, the animation holding during the teleport will reveal it as an Inferior locator.
• When a player goes through the shortcut in the wall near the Grand Exchange and if he is wearing the serjeant gloves, they will stretch and float above the shortcut.
• If you get 2 or more kills at the same time, it will only show once in the chat box.
• While picking herbs from a herb patch while wearing serjeant or higher gloves the gloves stretch.
• Although the maximum amount of special units allowed in a single game is 5, 6 may be used by clicking the unit rapidly, then the ground rapidly, while on your last unit.
