| 0s | of all the many story lines found in |
|---|---|
| 2s | RuneScape few are as memorable as the |
| 4s | mazerat series and of all of the quests |
| 6s | in that series none are as iconic as |
| 8s | while guic sleeps originally released in |
| 10s | 2008 this Quest set a new standard for |
| 13s | storytelling in RuneScape now in 2024 |
| 16s | while Gothic sleeps is finally coming to |
| 18s | old school at long last you'll be able |
| 20s | to re-experience this epic adventure as |
| 22s | you set out to try and stop a deadly |
| 24s | maurat from obtaining a powerful |
| 26s | artifact unlike any other but don't get |
| 28s | too comfortable anyone who's played |
| 30s | desert Treasure 2 will already know that |
| 32s | the majat storyline is taking its own |
| 33s | path in old school as such you can |
| 36s | expect various changes to the original |
| 37s | Quest keep it in line with our vision |
| 39s | for this story along with various |
| 41s | quality of life improvements to ensure |
| 42s | that it matches up to the standards of a |
| 44s | modern quest to say any more about these |
| 46s | changes would be a spoiler but one thing |
| 48s | we can talk about today is new rewards |
| 50s | when it launched back in 2008 while |
| 52s | Gothic sleeps introduced to us the |
| 54s | unforgettable tormented demons along |
| 56s | with their iconic drop the dragon claws |
| 58s | however when it comes to bringing the |
| 60s | this quest to old school that leaves us |
| 62s | with a bit of a problem Dragon claws |
| 64s | have been in the game since the release |
| 65s | of the chambers of zerich and many of |
| 67s | the iconic aspects of tormented demons |
| 69s | have since been used across other |
| 70s | creatures most notably the Demonic |
| 72s | Gorillas with this in mind we need to |
| 74s | take a new approach when it comes to the |
| 75s | rewards on offer from this grandmas |
| 77s | Quest now it's important to note that |
| 79s | we're still in the early days on this |
| 81s | but we're keen to share our ideas with |
| 83s | you nice and early so that we can ensure |
| 85s | they the direction you want us to take |
| 87s | firstly regarding tormented demons |
| 89s | themselves with how iconic they are |
| 91s | we're still very keen for these |
| 92s | creatures to be one of the rewards |
| 94s | offered from while Gothic sleeps but |
| 96s | that leaves us with some important |
| 97s | questions to answer should they retain |
| 99s | their original mechanics or should they |
| 100s | have something new should we move Dragon |
| 102s | claws to drop from them instead of |
| 104s | coming from chambers of zerich right now |
| 106s | our thinking is that we give them new |
| 108s | mechanics and new drops to set them |
| 110s | apart from similar content but we'd like |
| 112s | to know what you think next and perhaps |
| 114s | more exciting is a brand new reward the |
| 116s | rights of balance before we get into |
| 118s | them though let's talk about the ruin |
| 120s | Powers most people will be familiar with |
| 122s | the ruinous Powers a new prayer book |
| 124s | that was originally going to be offered |
| 125s | as a reward from Desert Treasure 2 |
| 127s | unfortunately after multiple stages of |
| 130s | refinement we made the decision not to |
| 131s | move forward with them however we |
| 133s | promised to later revisit both them and |
| 135s | new prayers in general and that's |
| 137s | exactly what we're doing with the rights |
| 138s | of balance the intention with the rights |
| 140s | of balance is to do something a bit |
| 142s | different from the ruinous Powers rather |
| 144s | than a whole new prayer book we'd like |
| 146s | to introduce something called God |
| 147s | alignments the idea is that God |
| 149s | alignment prayers or a small set of |
| 151s | prayers that are part of your main |
| 152s | prayer book the prayers vary depending |
| 154s | on your current God alignment but you |
| 156s | can only be aligned to one God at a time |
| 158s | the idea originally came from a popular |
| 160s | player suggestion that we absolutely |
| 161s | loved and with while Gothic sleeps we're |
| 163s | hoping to introduce the first God |
| 164s | alignment in the form of some goth xium |
| 166s | prayers the rights of balance but of |
| 168s | course a god alignment system with only |
| 170s | one alignment would be quite boring so |
| 172s | we're already thinking about what the |
| 173s | other alignments could focus on and yes |
| 175s | that includes introducing the Zer roian |
| 177s | alignment as an additional reward from |
| 179s | Desert Treasure 2 so there you have it |
| 181s | the return of runescape's most iconic |
| 182s | Quest along with an exciting selection |
| 184s | of new rewards and if that wasn't enough |
| 186s | we also have another iconic meat Quest |
| 188s | making a comeback many of you will have |
| 190s | already noted that we're missing one key |
| 192s | requirement for while Gothic sleeps in |
| 194s | old school so we're happy to confirm |
| 195s | that defender of varok will also be |
| 197s | making its return this year just like |
| 199s | with while Gothic sleeps this will be |
| 201s | the defender of varok you know and love |
| 203s | but with various changes to account for |
| 204s | the future direction of the Maat story |
| 206s | line along with a range of quality of |
| 207s | life improvements as well and with that |
| 210s | all that's left to say is thank you and |
| 211s | we look forward to sharing more |
| 213s | information with you very |
| 222s | soon |
