This week is focused on quality of life improvements to the game, whetting your appetite as we prepare ourselves for the upcoming release of Solak.
Some of the highlights for this week include, a graphical update to lodestones, and an update from the Ninjas to Tears of Guthix making it less clunky to interact with as well as longer streams!
Finally somewhere in the world of RuneScape a tree has moved one tile to the left. Good luck finding that one!
