Sure that thoughts of hunting cattle from Lumbridge close to extinction and then burial of their bones to enhance my prayer skills was flooding back into my mind when I crossed over the bridge to go east toward Het's Oasis OSRS gold. In the northernmost portion of the Kharidian Desert, Fletcher pointed at a huge tree that was a good distance from those canyon wall. It was so massive that it had curled around into a circular shape.
We made our way to the northern path that would lead you to Archeology Guild, home to the latest skill in the game that Fletcher said has gone extremely well with the players. As we walked, Fletcher pointed out that huge tree once more while we made our way to its front and I realized the fact that it had faces! It was called the Tree of Balance, and Fletcher informed me that it is home to the Druids and is the venue for the RuneScape Easter celebrations.
In the context of druids, Fletcher transitioned into speaking about plans for the RuneScape update coming next month, which will concentrate on enhancing the farming skill. They've observed that players don't consider Farming as particularly enjoyable. This is why Fletcher and his group at Jagex are seeking to improve some of the less utilized or popular skills for them to be more appealing or, at the very least, more incentive-based, to players to invest their time in.In recognition of the successes this Archeology skill has achieved and the positive feedback from players, it seems that Fletcher will address playerbase issues with some of the less popular skills. He wasn't able to give specifics regarding the recent changes to Farming but he promised that they'll reveal the entire scope of changes in the near future. This led Fletcher to guide us towards our final destination on the tour, where the most immediate changes were made.
The Wilderness has seen recently one of the most significant modifications to RuneScape throughout the year, and perhaps the most dramatic change in history. The Wilderness is being relaunched, with a fresh look and has changed its focus the status of an all-time PvP zone, to now being an optional PvP, with a brand new system that is based on threats for PvM. Fletcher talked about how the Wilderness became more and more unpopular in the past because of the repercussions of dying in the Wilderness. They tried to revitalize the area by incorporating it in the ongoing Legacy of Zamorak story arc.
They've continued to provide support for the newly created Wilderness zone by offering Flash Events and two new mini-quests. The third is expected to be added in a forthcoming update. As we sat around in the Wilderness discussing these updates, a single player was in the area, hunting blue dragons. Due to recent changes The Wilderness is now a very popular spot for those who want to learn the Slayer ability due to it being one of the most rewarding, and also having the highest enemy density.
Fletcher assured me that we were secure within our midst, however, due to the Wilderness's unique threat system, we might be left for longer. If we didn't, our threat rating would go up, leading to an ambush, where monsters could be able to attack us. While we were tempted to run into the distance, and then lose in a glorious battle, we held back and Fletcher ended the tour.
For me, the changes I've observed in RuneScape within the last year are a testament to how the amount Jagex is willing to put in into maintaining and growing the quality of its players. It's a blast to go back to the start of RuneScape and observe the changes that have occurred throughout the many years. Fresh Start Worlds Fresh Start Worlds offer an attractive way for beginners to try out the game as well as for those who are veterans to begin new (and receive exclusive digital trophies, too!). However, this time-limited mode will be available for just eleven weeks. So if ever thought about entering RuneScape there's never been an ideal time to do so.
