Earn pulse cores on Treasure Hunter this weekend and help your friends with stackable XP buffs.

Available from 00:00 UTC on 10th April to 23:59 UTC on 13th April, it’s a great way for you and your friends to benefit from skilling together.

Pulse cores stack in your inventory or your pocket slot, and each acts like a chunk of Bonus XP, granting you double XP in whatever skill you’re training.

When a core depletes, it sets off a pulse wave, granting everyone in immediate vicinity a 2% XP boost for 10 minutes, plus another benefit such as replenished prayer or life points, or stat boosts to several skill levels. Make sure you're accepting aid in order to receive these benefits!

This can stack up to five times, for a maximum of 10% XP boost, and each pulse that affects a player will renew the 10 minute duration.

Note that you do not receive the 10 minute XP buff from depletion of your own pulse cores – only others’ cores. Also, Ironman accounts cannot receive the buffs.

So stock up, gather some friends, and settle in for some awesome XP gains.

What is Treasure Hunter?

Treasure Hunter is a minigame – playable from within RuneScape - where players use Keys to claim in-game items as prizes. These range from useful resources to rare weapons and exclusive gear.

Playing Treasure Hunter is simple – click the treasure chest icon that pops up when you log in. If you've not played before, just follow the on-screen guide.

Everyone gets at least one Key per day, and RuneScape members get two. You can earn more Keys while playing the game, or stock up by redeeming Bonds.

If you'd like more, you can also buy Keys on the website, or by clicking 'Buy Keys' within the Treasure Hunter interface in-game.
