Damn i'm fast.

 

 

 

There are many secrets hidden in the depths of the desert. Forgotten tombs of forgotten rulers from a forgotten time, when the world was a very different place...or at least they were forgotten. The spread of human civilisation, however, means that many of the hidden corners of the world are being uncovered, often by treasure-hunters with little regard for preserving the sanctity of these ancient places.

 

 

 

Recently, one such tomb, near Uzer, was discovered by treasure-hunters. Leela of Al Kharid does care about the sanctity of this particular place, and she wants your help to recover information that is of great importance to her.

Warning Mild Spoilers

 

 

 

Please note that we havent forgotten about your request to not start too many new quest series until we have continued with, and finished, a few of the existing ones. While it might not seem like it initially, this quest is actually part of the same quest series as Tale of the Muspah; this one just approaches things from a very different direction, so its probably not entirely clear how things fit together yet.

 

 

 

Weve been calling this quest series Mysteries of the Mahjarrat here in the Jagex office. It is going to be tying together a few lose ends from various quests, and hopefully bringing more cohesion to parts of the Runescape mythology and storyline. While were starting the quest series with low-level requirements, later quests will have progressively higher requirements as we draw in the different existing storylines. Additionally, Missing My Mummy also ties into some of the ongoing desert storylines.

In other news...

 

 

 

We have improved Low and High Alchemy so that if you don't time your clicks correctly, it'll still return you to the spellbook after your inventory. Hopefully you'll find this useful when youre going about your daily alching! You can also queue up one to cast while the current spell is being performed.

 

 

 

We have added an activity bar to the Soul Wars minigame. If you've been taking part in the game the bar should remain green, but if you don't take part the bar will slowly turn orange, and eventually run out, at which point you'll be removed from the game.

 

 

 

You'll find that after killing someone in a Bounty or PvP world you'll have a bit of time to pick up drops before potentially being whisked away for a random event.

Blech, should'nt have had my hopes up.

Intermediate quest, not going to be overly difficult but should offer some interesting little tidbits if this pyramid is pre-Godwars.

Soon as I saw this topic, I flipped over to RS and the update counter started, lol

It's part of the same quest series as Tale of the Muspah. :o

 

 

 

Says on the RSOF.

We have added an activity bar to the Soul Wars minigame. If you've been taking part in the game the bar should remain green, but if you don't take part the bar will slowly turn orange, and eventually run out, at which point you'll be removed from the game.

 

 

 

Finally. -.- No more leachers or how ever you write it in Soul Wars. :D Not that I play it anymore.

Woohoo no more [bleep]ing freeloaders at SW!

 

 

 

Medium quest, meh... more free xp.

 

 

 

Can't wait to see how many freeloaders go to SW today and get kicked out mid-way :twisted: :lol:

Alching update looks good.

 

 

 

We have improved Low and High Alchemy so that if you don't time your clicks correctly, it'll still return you to the spellbook after your inventory. Hopefully you'll find this useful when youre going about your daily alching! You can also queue up one to cast while the current spell is being performed.

 

 

 

 

And no more worthless freeloader noobs.

Sweet. No more freeloaders and that alching thing looks pretty useful, that's always something that pisses me off :thumbup:

It's part of the same quest series as Tale of the Muspah. :o

 

 

 

Says on the RSOF.

 

 

 

So it is :o

 

 

 

I guess this means Jagex are starting to focus on one whole storyline albeit from different directions so that they all tie up together near the end, much like how quests lead up to Whilst Guthix Sleeps. Wonder if we could see the bigger parts of the plot near the end of this year :ohnoes:

The 2nd quest of the Mystery of the Mahjarrat series. :thumbsup:

 

 

 

Cant wait to go do it.

Hopefully the alchemy update applies to superheat and enchant etc. as well, having to go back to the spellbook while superheating really grinds my gears.

Jagex hinted at a Mummy update on Twitter about 6 hours ago.

Loving the high alchemy update! :thumbsup:

Well done

Finally we might get rid of freeloaders. But are they still going to decrease the xp reward?

Should be a fun quest. :

 

 

 

I don't play soul Wars but still a great update. And Alching Ftw!

Loving the high alchemy update! :thumbsup:

 

I love it more.

 

 

 

I also love your sig/avatar that I made for you noob.

Thanks.

There I am, stuck at the golem you cannot kill. Or I can't kill.
