Taken From Www.RuneScape.Com:

Among the things that we regularly see on the forums are possible uses for some of the jewellery that can't be enchanted yet. So this week's update is to give all those neglected necklaces a purpose. There were so many good suggestions, though, that we had to create an entirely new type of jewellery in order to use even a fraction of the great ideas! So that we could use more of these ideas, we've made bracelets with new magical effects which we hope will keep you enchanted.

We've added jewellery that lets you mine soft clay, some that have new teleport destinations, some that will help you in your Runecrafting, and, of course, some that will help you in combat, to mention just a few. The TzHaar have even got a necklace that will make their obsidian weapons more powerful! For more details have a look in the Knowledge Base.

Summary


Requirements for new jewellery:

There are 7 new bracelets, 6 of which are enchantable, and 3 newly enchantable necklaces.


Crafting levels from 7 to 84
Magic levels from 7 to 87

Note: The bracelet of innoculation requires the completion of Zogre Flesh Eaters to wear




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In other news...

Castle Wars fans may be glad to hear that we've fixed the bug whereby players could pass through barricades if the dragon spear's special attack was used on them.

The gauntlets of goldsmithing now give you their usual Smithing Xp bonus when you use the Blast Furnace to smelt your gold ore.

After the dust rune's graphic was mysteriously shrunk last week, we've had it reinflated.

The splitbark greaves (available from the Draynor Wizards' Tower) have been renamed because they aren't greaves. They're now called splitbark boots.

Finally, after last week's update to goblins, we've seen a few of them sliding across the floor during combat. The makeover mage has been recalled to fix their legs (fortunately they're still under warranty) so there should be no more problems with skiddy goblins.

---------------------------------------------------

I was looking forward to this update. To be honest, there is only a few new jewels that seem good, and they are as followed:

Bracelet of Clay (m): Will mine soft clay rather than hard clay (will break after 28 clay)
Castlewars Bracelet (m): Wielder will do an extra 20% damage against a bearer of the other teams flag. Cw bandages also heals 50% more to wielders of this bracelet. (3 charges, loses 1 charge per game)
Bracelet of Combat: Can teleport to the Warrior's, Champions' and Ranging guild aswell as the Monastery. Will also update the wearers slayer totals every tenth target they need to kill. (Holds 4 charges, can recharge at the totem in the Legnds Guild)
Necklace of Skills (m): Can teleport to Fishing, Mining, Crafting and Cooking Guild. Slightly increases the change of getting a casket while big net fishing. (4 charges. Can recharge at Totem Pole in Legends Guild.

The Abyssal Bracelet (m) would be nice but it says it only has 5 charging, assuming it uses one charge per entry to the abyss. This bracelet prevents you from skulling when entering the abyss.

There is also a new Onyx necklace, the Berserker Necklace. This has the following effect:

Strength raised by 7
Stab Attack, Slash Attack and Crush Attack reduced by 10
Stab Defence, Slash Defence, Crush Defence, Magic Defence and Ranged Defence reduced by 20
Increases the amount of damage wearer does when wielding an obsidian melee weapon by 20%

I think it was a pretty good update though. It will be nice being able to teleport to all those places. A big time saver depending on what you are doing.

The moment I get members back I'm going to get both dragonstone type jeweleries, and then do nothing for a good half hour and make sapphire and ruby bracelets.

I've got some temples to raid.

I prefer the becelets, they have bonus, u can use at same time with glories and sometimes u need use the ammy spot (like woodwitch icon for kill cave horror as istance) Bacelets are rechargable at legends guild totem.
