Til Death Do us Part

Tis the month of Hallowe’en, and you know what that means? Our Halloween event! Which starts today!

A mysterious energy rift has materialised outside of Death’s office, and is wreaking havoc. Death has created a set of pillars which are currently holding the dark forces back, but they alone will not be enough. Half-human, half-mahjarrat army general Moia is trapped inside the rift, complicating matters somewhat. Death could do with a hand freeing her and holding back the threat from Daemonheim.

As the concern swells, so too will Death’s army. Join forces with the Riders – War, Pestilence and Famine – to fend off the rift’s advances. There’s bigger dangers on the way before this is over.

Heroes are rewarded in RuneScape, so in return for aiding Death and his boisterous chums, players will be whisked off to a loot-packed warped chamber. Time in the chamber will be fleeting, so be quick! What’s up for grabs? You’ll have to find out for yourself, but do expect some new unique items you haven’t seen before.

On top of this, a number of drop chances have doubled within the quest including the ectoplasmator, Ghost Hunter outfit and herb burner, while ghostly essence will have a 10% increased drop rate. Players will also be able to burn bones on bonfires.

To get started on ‘Til Death Do Us Part, head over to Draynor Lodestone and keep an eye out for Death and his pillars to the north east. A new Rider will arrive each week throughout the month, bringing with them new gameplay challenges.

F2P players will be able to grab all the same rewards as members, but some of them can only be used by members. Note too that the more players who get involved, the greater the rewards for everyone!
