0s November the 27th marks a very special
3s day the launch of leagues 5 raging Echo
7s I'm critic and I make a lot of leagues
10s related content but today jagex have
13s entrusted me to deliver some really
15s exciting news about this upcoming league
18s if you've been living under a rock for
19s the last 4 years you might not know what
21s a league is so let me quickly explain
24s raging Echo league is a temporary game
27s mode spanning 8 weeks with boosted XP
30s rates drop rates and passive Buffs
33s everyone will be playing under Iron Man
35s game rules but with a Twist you start
38s locked only to mislin and karamja and
41s have the ability to unlock three further
43s regions including the new region of
46s vmore this time how do you unlock
49s regions exactly well I'm glad you asked
52s League tasks are the name of the game
55s and range from defeating that first poor
57s Goblin you come across to chop in your
59s first tree or all the way up to endgame
62s rates trust me when I say that the
64s dopamine of ticking off task after task
67s and seeing that pop up never gets old
70s and you'll be able to unlock your first
72s second and third regions by completing a
74s certain number of tasks and that's not
77s all because completing League tasks also
80s rewards you with League points and these
82s are important upon reaching certain
85s League point thresholds you'll be able
87s to unlock relics these are powerful
90s permanent Buffs to your character that
91s alter a gameplay style of your choice
94s want to instantly process and Bank items
97s you gather no problem have you got an
99s excess amount of GP and want to use that
101s to train prayer it's possible I think
104s you get the picture so let me tell you
106s all why I'm really here today in line
109s with the titular theme of leagues 5 Echo
112s bosses are a new feature these are
115s powerful variants of existing bosses
117s with beefed up hit points and added
119s mechanics for a fresh challenge more
122s importantly though they drop new neverbe
125s seen items there's one Echo boss per
128s region excluding the starting regions of
130s mistlin and kurja so don't panic you
133s won't have to deal with Jad spawn in a
136s set of more jads the spawn a set of more
139s jads the spawn a set of more jads you
142s get the idea to access an echo boss
145s you'll need to beat the regular version
147s of that boss and in doing so there's a
149s chance that that boss will drop an echo
151s orb these are region specific and can be
154s used to permanently access the echo
156s version of that Region's boss now I'm
159s not going to spoil what each one of
161s these new challenges have in store for
163s you but let me take you on a grand tour
165s around ganor for a sneak peek at the new
169s exciting drops from these Echo bosses oh
172s and if you happen to have planned any of
174s your League's region choices ahead of
176s now then get ready to have those plans
179s turned upside down and your mind truly
182s blown because this is going to change
187s everything all right the first stop on
189s our tour is the kidan desert just
192s Southwest of The Shanty pass and deep
194s underground is the cight lair the calite
198s queen resides in the depths and will
200s award any Challengers who can defeat its
202s Echo variant with a chance to obtain a
205s powerful ranged weapon befitting of the
207s desert's characteristics the dry
210s blowpipe just like its toxic variant the
213s dry Gore blowpipe uses darts for
215s ammunition which are conveniently
217s unlocked for Fletching after completing
219s the tourist trap quest the dry Gore
221s blowpipe is incredibly fast and accurate
224s working like a ranged version of the
226s osmont Fang it's built-in passive Rose
229s for accuracy twice before taking the
232s highest result all while attacking at a
234s lightning two tick attack speed I can
237s think of some Keen desert enthusiasts
239s who will be very happy with a strong
242s ranged option that will make light work
244s of most of the desert
246s denisons next we're headed to the region
248s of aghania and for this one we're going
251s to need 91 Slayer and a hellhound Slayer
254s task because we're headed deep into the
256s tavali dungeon to find everyone's
259s favorite hell puppy Cerberus if you're
262s lucky enough to obtain the asaria echo
264s orb you'll no longer need a Slayer Tas
267s to fight the echo variant of Cerberus
269s now have you ever wondered what it would
271s be like if you could Forge all of the
273s godswords into one well Echo serus makes
277s that a reality as it'll have a chance to
280s drop the dog
283s sword whoever came up with that name is
286s a genius for 50% of your special attack
289s energy the dog sword will hit a Target
291s and apply every single God Sword effect
294s freezing healing reducing defenses
298s increased accuracy and even more damage
301s the dog sword does it all and who knows
304s if you're lucky enough to pair this with
305s a relic that enhances your special
307s attacks this has some insane
311s potential let me talk to you guys about
314s the Wilderness it's sprawling with
316s bosses all suitable candidates for an
319s Echo variant but there is one boss here
322s that has stood the test of time and you
325s can find it just west of the lava maze
328s the king black dragon
330s there aren't any requirements to access
332s this bus so grab your anti-dragon fire
334s Shields because this Echo variant can
337s drop not one but two Echo items the
341s Thunder copes and the Thousand Dragon
344s Ward the Thunder copes is a powerful
347s sickle-shaped slashing sword imbued with
349s the power of thunder and lightning when
352s attacking with the Thunder copes you'll
354s have a 20% chance to summon a lightning
357s bolt this deals area of effect damage in
359s a 3x3 area around your target especially
363s useful for getting through groups of
365s monsters quickly the kesh's special
368s attack takes this Effect one step
370s further and for 50% of your special
372s attack energy you'll quickly attack
374s twice if either of those hits are
376s successful an additional lightning bolt
378s is summoned for up to 100% of the
382s original attacks Max hit this weapon is
385s insanely strong and even does full
388s damage against the corporeal Beast but
390s before I get carried away let me tell
393s you guys about the Thousand Dragon Ward
395s strong attack bonuses with more Mele
398s strength than a Defender and some beefy
400s defensive bonuses to round it off but
403s what really makes the Thousand Dragon
405s Ward special is its passive effect while
408s wielding the Thousand Dragon Ward you
410s will be immune to pretty much all
412s negative status effects dragon fire
415s desert heat poison Venom and many many
419s more these two items combined are making
422s the Wilderness look extremely promising
425s this year will D good next we're headed
429s into morania and I hope you all remember
431s that I asked you to get 75 Slayer and a
434s gargoyle Tas for this one because we'll
436s need a brittle key for where we're going
438s on the roof of the Slayer Tower are the
441s grotesque Guardians if you can get a
443s hold of the morania echo orb you won't
445s need a Slayer task to access this Echo
448s variant and if you're good enough to
450s come out on top there's a chance you'll
452s be able to bag yourself the gloves of
454s the Damned as far as their stats go
457s they're just as strong as Barrow gloves
460s which is very fitting for its extremely
463s powerful passive effect while equipped
465s the gloves of the dam double the
467s effectiveness of all Barrow set effects
470s and additional set effects provided when
472s wearing an amulet of the Damned and
474s luckily for us the gloves act as if you
477s have an amulet of the Damned equipped
480s meaning every set of barrows gets turned
482s into an absolute Powerhouse with these
484s gloves arim set gains a 50% chance of
487s combat spells dealing 60% more damage
490s the Carol set becomes a machine gun with
492s a 50% chance to hit a Target twice and
495s the infamous daro set is going to be
498s capable of dealing up to
500s 194% bonus damage when at 1 HP so grab
504s your Spades and get digging the Fric
508s region is our next stop and while there
510s aren't any requirements to get to our
512s destination you'll want to be prepared
514s with at least some overhead prayers and
516s a pet rock or you know a friend that'll
520s work on the sixth level of the
522s waterbirth island dungeon are the dagoth
525s Kings each of the Kings uses a
527s different attack style so this won't be
530s an easy challenge but by defeating the
532s echo variants you'll have a chance to
534s get the two best pieces of jewelry that
537s leagues 5 has to offer the Amulet of the
540s monarchs and the emperor ring both of
543s these pieces of jewelry provide
545s incredible stat bonuses attack defense
548s prayer bonus melee and range strength
550s and of course a huge amount of magic
553s damage as well these two items really
555s are a jack of all trades and make frenic
558s the perfect support region to pair with
560s whatever else you're cooking up now who
563s laughed at me when I said femic was
565s going to be S tier this year yeah I
569s thought so
570s the kingdom of kandarin this place has
573s historically been known as an especially
575s strong region for magic users and that's
578s not about to change anytime soon just
581s Southwest of Castle Wars is the smoke
583s devil dungeon and you'll be able to take
585s on the Therman nuclear smoke devil here
587s once you have 93 Slayer and a smoke
590s devil task but just like the other
592s Slayer buses the echo variant does not
594s require you to have a Slayer task once
596s you obtain the kandarin orb this Echo
599s variant of thury has a chance to drop an
601s off-hand item that allows you to tune
604s into the elements of the world and
606s exploit weaknesses like never before the
609s devil's element this neat little incense
612s burning looking thing provides some
614s generous magic accuracy a 6% magic
617s damage boost and some prayer bonus on
620s top but the real magic behind the
622s devil's element is its passive ability
624s to harness the power of the elements
627s while equipped the devil's element
629s counts as any any Elemental Rune and it
632s will allow you to double the
633s effectiveness of any Elemental
635s weaknesses exploited there are a ton of
639s fun bosses across ganor with an
641s elemental weakness which are going to be
644s even more prominent with this item and
646s may even open some different strategies
649s for you to try in the previous League
651s The tuman Shadow was everyone's favorite
653s magic item but this will definitely
656s close the gap for other Elemental staffs
659s like the nightmare staff to stand at the
661s very top alongside it a little further
665s to the West is the beautiful green area
667s of
669s tanwin okay maybe it's not all beautiful
673s and for this Region's Echo variant
675s you'll be taking a trip Into the Heart
676s of prias to take on The Gauntlet if
680s you're up for the challenge you'll need
682s to tackle the corrupted Gauntlet for a
684s chance at the tanuan echo orb which once
687s obtained allows you to instantly skip
689s the ga let preparation phase as should
691s you choose to fight the echo variant
693s you'll be geared with a generous
695s Gauntlet setup this allows you to jump
697s straight into the action with the echo
699s variant of the hunleth if you're lucky
701s while fighting this Echo boss you'll be
703s able to get your hands on the crystal
705s blessing in addition to providing a big
707s boost to prayer bonus the crystal
709s blessing harnesses the power of the
711s crystal armor allowing its accuracy and
714s damage bonuses to be applied to all
717s melee weapons while equipped for those
719s who aren't all familiar with this gear a
722s full set of Crystal armor will give you
724s a combined 30% accuracy and 15% damage
729s bonus I can definitely think of a few
731s weapons I'd like to try this out with
733s but I'll leave the experimenting up to
735s you guys what do you think would pair
738s well with this across the sea is the
741s Kingdom of Great kand this massive
744s landscape has a lot of great content to
746s get stuck into but for this next Echo
749s Vara will'll be traveling to the farming
751s guild at level 65 farming you'll be able
755s to enter the intermediate tier of the
757s farming Guild and after planting and
759s watching your hpor seed grow into a
762s giant angry blant you'll be able to
765s fight it and defeating it will guarantee
767s you the coren Echo orb obtaining this
770s will allow you to fight Echo hpor
772s whenever you want not requiring you to
774s wait for a seed to grow befitting a
776s piece of living nature the echo version
779s of hisor has a chance to drop the
781s Nature's reprisal a tribrid weapon
784s capable of using all three combat Styles
787s and what I love about this weapon the
788s most is that even the melee option is a
791s projectile allowing you to slap on your
793s best suit of armor and attack with melee
796s from a distance now you will need to
798s charge Nature's reprisal with one nature
800s Rune and five Earth runes per charge but
803s you'll be rewarded with its incredibly
805s versatile stats these are absolutely no
809s joke and I'm expecting total chaos from
812s this item grab your tree trunks we're
814s going to the chambers of zerich with
815s this one the final stop on our tour
818s today takes us to The Shining Kingdom of
821s vmore the newest region in leagues 5
823s with so many fun pieces of content to
825s try out if you haven't already managed
828s to do so if you've been here before then
830s you'll know where I'm stood right now
832s the forus Coliseum one of old school
835s runescape's toughest challenges and who
838s better to test your league prowess than
840s an echo version of Soul heredi himself
844s now you'll be glad to know that this
846s works a little differently to the other
848s bosses and that by beating all of the
851s Coliseum waves and soul hered it you
853s will guarantee yourself the Valore Echo
856s orb drop this will allow you to skip the
858s Coliseum waves to take on the echo
860s variant of Soul whenever you want this
863s fight will take you to your absolute
865s limits but if you have what it takes to
867s defeat Echo Soul then you will have
869s earned a chance to take the Titans items
871s for yourself introducing the sunlight
874s Spear and the sunlit bracers the
877s sunlight spear is a two-handed weapon
880s boasting some generous defensive stats
882s and an insane amount of melee strength
884s for those big numbers we all know and
887s love but there is so much more to this
890s weapon attacking with the sunlight spear
892s grants you a stack of sunlight up to a
894s maximum of 20 stacks and this is where
897s the weapon special attack comes in using
900s the special attack will consume seven
902s sunlight Stacks releasing the builtup
904s energy and hitting every Target around
906s you within a three tile radius what's
909s even more impressive about this special
911s attack is that the damage is increased
914s per point of prayer bonus that you have
916s good job the Coliseum might just give
919s you something to help with boosting that
921s the sunlight braces provide powerful
923s utility through their strong stats but
926s more importantly their passive ability
929s which which increases all healing you
931s receive by 100% sharks go from healing
934s 20 to 40 and just one seramin Brew can
937s heal as much as
939s 128 hit points and there are a ton of
943s other ways to heal in old school
945s RuneScape making this item incredibly
948s versatile no matter what regions you're
950s thinking of going for I think it's safe
953s to say that valmore is shaping up to be
955s an incredibly exciting new region to
958s this league and that concludes our tour
