<aside> 💡 Distractions & Diversions (D&Ds) are short, location-based events that appear randomly across Gielinor.

<aside> ⌛

How D&Ds spawn and reset:

• Spawn interval: Each of the Living Rock Patriarch, Evil Trees, Shooting Stars and Runespheres appears 3–6 hours after the previous one ends.
• Active window: Once spawned, each event lasts 2 hours. It only despawns early if no one interacts with it.
• Minimum gap: No two of these D&Ds can appear within 20 minutes of each other.
• Server restarts: They do not affect active D&Ds.
• Notifications: Join the #d-and-d-notifications channel on our Discord to see spawn times in real time.

To prevent overcrowding and ensure fair rewards, skilling D&Ds adjust their resource rate based on player count using the formula: resource rate = 6 / (number of players + 2)
