The time has almost arrived... Onlyuntil the release of the first ever Old School quest -In order to complete Monkey Madness II you must meet the following requirements:Let's take a look at a couple of the many rewards earned by completing Monkey Madness II.Upon completing Monkey Madness II you will gain access to an activity from which the components used to fletch ballistae can be obtained. Ballistae are slow, hard hitting ranged weapons comparable to Godswords and use javelins as ammunition.Also obtained from a post-quest activity, Zenyte shards can be used on an onyx to create Zenyte - a brand new gem. Zenyte can be crafted into jewellery to create several best-in-slot pieces of equipment:Early last week a content suggestion from a player named GentleTractor ended up taking the community by storm. The concept was to refine Zeah's mapping and expand on the content found within the continent.In response to this,we will be running afocused on expanding the content available in Great Kourend. We will be focusing on small to medium sized updates to fill out some of the unused areas of the city.We've been gathering content suggestions for this poll over the past week and will continue to do so over the weekend. If you have any suggestions you would like to see implemented, now is the time to send them our way!In addition to this content poll,we will be making changes to the design of Great Kourend. With the help of GentleTractor we have decided on a design for Great Kourend we would like to implement for, alongside raids.Below is a concept image which shows our goal for the design of Great Kourend, created by GentleTractor.: this design is still subject to change.The changes made will make Zeah feel like a more natural land mass. This is a trend which will continue with the design of the future Zeah expansions.To follow up on our recent priority survey , later on in May we will be running a priority poll in a poll booth near you.The priority survey has provided us with a good idea of where the community currently stands on a lot of Old School RuneScape topics. We'll be using this information to craft a priority poll which every qualified Old School RuneScape player will be able to vote in.The results of this priority poll will help us decide the most appropriate path for the development of Old School RuneScape. Keep an eye out later on this month and have your say in the future of Old School.After passing the poll with flying colours , the clue scroll expansion is coming to Old School. Throughout May we will be developing the update for release in early June.Over the course of the month you can expect to see lots of information coming out about new rewards and clues. We will be implementing many of the community suggestions sent into the Old School mailbox and, at the very end of May, we will be announcing the winners of the clue scroll competition!You can read more about our plans for the clue scroll expansion in the clue scroll expansion developer blog
