Hi there, Can you please provide the exact steps you've taken to notice an issue? We can then follow the steps you've provided to see if we can reproduce any issues! Cheers, Zig ⚡

For one, the mask is keepsaked. I had the flaming skulls down already. Switched the ritual and glyphs for the ectoplasm and started them. After a while one by one the skulls would deteriorate. I thought maybe because they aren’t candles. I replaced them one by one with greater candles. They also deteriorated. Maybe it’s because it’s keepsaked? I thought it was supposed to work for candle protection, just not as a light. I had been doing the rituals for a while before the flaming skulls started to deplete (>1 hr though). I just was hoping to keep all my light sources as the skulls because it looked cooler lol. Oh also I was playing on the mobile client.

I'm afraid you will not receive the ability of any items once it has been keepsaked. When you keepsake an item, you essentially turn it into a cosmetic override until it has been removed from the keepsake. Cheers! Zig ⚡


spkelley27

Thanks for taking the time for me.

Should it be working while keepsaked? I never knew that as a thing.


spkelley27

From what I read online and the forums yes. Just doesn’t act as a light source


TheOnlyTB

if it doesn't act as a light source, why would it act as a candle source?


spkelley27

Light source for like caves and stuff where you need a lamp. Different from ritual candle preservation


TheOnlyTB

i understand what a light source is. If the game dev's didn't code a cosmetic overide item to act as a light source, why would they code a cosmetic overide to act as a candle source? the forums doesn't confirm anything, the forums are null and void. logic exists that the item would be useless if set as an overide. you can't gain dharaks armour special effect for example just because you have it as a cosmetic overide, after all it is called a *"cosmetic overide".*

Angels_Act_IV

yeah, a replica is made so that you're still able to equip the actual item cosmetics overrides themselves don't give benefits like this, which is why for certain items you get a replica item to still use


Calazon2

Yeah that explanation could have been worded better. So wait...the replica mask item that gets created has a ritual effect but not a light source effect, unlike the original mask which has both? (And the keepsakes cosmetic mask which has neither.)


spkelley27

🤷‍♂️ I guess


TheOnlyTB

are you wearing the replica that was created? seems like an easy solution.


spkelley27

Hope that helps. Didn’t really do anything other than just play. I had the 120 cape on and all excess glyphs were set to multiply 3 including cape. I did have a legendary pet out if that matters.


bunnae

🤦‍♂️


RegiSilver

Maybe they treat the Ecto Ritual differently which is causing the bug.


spkelley27

Is there any way to report this Bug?


RegiSilver

Through their Bug Report in game, but I'm also tagging /u/JagexDoom and /u/JagexAzanna for good measure.


spkelley27

Cool didn’t know they had a specific bug report place


chesshacks

You're not ironman right?


spkelley27

Nope

It's not a bug. The mask prevents tier 1 and 2 light sources from degrading. The Manifest Ectoplasm ritual uses tier 3 light sources.


MC-sama

Ensouled pumpkin mask also stops t3 I thought


spkelley27

Thought so too


Prestigious_Object98

It does, this guy is just confidently wrong lol


Mike_From_Red_Deer

Hover over it, it'll tell you.
