Jagex: Celebs Rumors

Old School Runescape has introduced a huge new area to the existing map of Gielinor as part of a new update.Varlamore offers players a variety of new features, including quests, contests, boss battles and different ways to train existing skills.Known as The Shining Kingdom, players will have needed to complete the Children Of The Sun quest to access Varlamore which can be reached via a giant quetzal bird located outside Varrock’s eastern gate.Once there, Old School Runescape players will be able to continue the Varlamore questline with Twilight’s Promise and unlock the Quetzal Transport Network.

NME, developers on Old School RuneScape have broken down the online multiplayer game’s busiest month since launch – from the birth of dubiously-named community activity Sq’irkin, to the return of its much-hyped Leagues game mode.Last week (November 15), an Old School RuneScape (OSRS) update added the Trailblazer Reloaded League – a temporary game mode that’s separate from the rest of OSRS.In the current League, players start from scratch and can only play within one region in Gielinor. Other areas must be unlocked by completing tasks, while powerful perks and exp bonuses make the game mode something of a power fantasy in comparison to standard OSRS.Just like prior League modes, Trailblazer Reloaded has been hugely popular.

Jagex, the developer of the classic massively multiplayer online role-playing game RuneScape, has admitted that the inclusion of its Hero Pass was “controversial” and a “significant misjudgement”.“We messed up,” conceded the company in a post to the game’s official website. It continued to confirm that it had heard the criticism of the battle pass from fans and that the Hero Pass missteps arose from an accidental lack of acknowledgement for what the players wanted out of their RuneScape experience.“We need a do-over.

Old School RuneScape players are being treated to a sequel to one of its most beloved quests – Desert Treasure – almost two decades after the original was added into the game.As a Grandmaster quest featuring the mysterious Mahjarrat, Desert Treasure 2 – The Fallen Empire is the “most ambitious” quest that the Old School team has worked on since the release of the RPG in 2013.In this sequel, players travel to four new areas and will be pitted against four new bosses that guard an ancient vault that has the power to “change Gielinor forever” if it is opened. “These four bosses each have their own abilities, mechanics, and strategies,” read the press release, with the assurance that these bosses can be battled again after the ending of The Fallen Empire for extra rewards like the coveted Virtus Armour.The content is live today (July 26) in Old School RuneScape, allowing players to commence their quest as soon as they like and secure the “host of mythical and powerful rewards.”“Desert Treasure 2 will reward players with four new best-in-slot rings to boost strength, ranged skills, magic, and melee, as well as a fully upgraded Ancient Sceptre which gets stronger with every defeated boss,” explained the team.

RuneScape is getting its first new stand-alone combat skill – Necromancy.The brand-new combat skill will launch on August 7 and it’s free to players up to level 20.“Necromancy will be one of RuneScape’s premiere updates for 2023,” said an official release. “The new combat style will challenge both experienced and new players alike as they embrace their inner darkness and learn this ancient combat art across a lore-filled and deep adventure.”Along with the announcement, RuneScape developer Jagex revealed a new trailer:The new powers players will wield with Necromancy are described as “arcane and dark” – much as you might expect.

Jagex is diving into its RuneScape archives to bring back “the rarest item in its 20-year history” – a golden party hat.In a new event that runs from now until January 3, 2022, players will be able to get their hands on a new version of the classic “Partyhat“, an item that was initially only available during a Christmas event way back in 2001. Originally available in red, yellow, green, blue, purple, or white, RuneScape’s “The Golden Party Hat Hunt” quest will allow players to unlock one of the highly-sought cosmetics in a metallic sheen.As the partyhats were originally only available in limited numbers for a short time and have since been discontinued, any player lucky enough to have one can sell them for billions of in-game coins.

Jagex is putting its foot down, with a new effort to stamp out game-breaking “real-world trading”, or RWT, in its long-running MMO RuneScape.The trade of virtual currencies for real-world money can be a problem for many online games, upsetting in-game economies, unbalancing player experiences, or turning games into pay-to-win scenarios. In RuneScape, the trade in its digital ‘gold’ has been a particular problem, leading to bots mining the resource, and even accusations that the ability to buy in-game ‘bonds’ for real-world money amounts to gambling.Now, Jagex has outlined plans to tackle the problem.

Old-School Runescape community is caught up in drama regarding the permanent ban of content creator Rendi, who accuses Jagex of lying about the reason he was banned.On July 2, Rendi’s account was banned following a video displaying how to get into a restricted area without meeting the requirements.
