Woodcutters' Grove & Parcels from the Dead - This Week In RuneScape

Woodcutters' Grove & Parcels from the Dead - This Week In RuneScape

Lots of options this week - will you answer the call of departed souls of the underworld for delightfully dark rewards? Or are you going to be more #lumbercore and set up a new Woodcutting haven at Fort Forinthry?

Active Events
The Beach - Active until June 26th Golden Cape Hunt - Active until June 25th at 23:59 BST Tales of Pride - Active until June 30th
Woodcutters Grove
Have you got an imcan-do attitude?

So, you’ve successfully defended Fort Forinthry from hordes of the undead - now it’s time to establish a steady supply of resources so your operations can continue to grow! Fortifications must be built and maintained, and you certainly can’t afford a wood shortage.

Introducing your new training area - The Woodcutters’ Grove! Set up your sustainable one-stop chopping trove east of the Fort, and level it up to access more trees. Use the new Wood Boxes and Wood Spirits to harvest logs en-masse, and train your way towards the brand-new tier 80 Imcando Hatchet!

Check out the full blog for all the details ewe wood possibly need. Or check out this quick guide to the Grove

When you’re ready to start, meet with Aster or Bill at the Fort. Remember, you’ll need to complete the Unwelcome Guests quest first. Chop chop!

With the addition of these new Planks and Frames we have also rebalanced the Forts Core Buildings material costs.

These changes are being made so we can substantially increase the XP for making the higher Tier buildings in order to make this a viable training method for Construction as intended. To compensate, the material cost has been increased.

Parcels From The Dead
Signed, sealed... not delivered

There’s trouble at the Post Office - when isn’t there? - but this time it’s deadly serious. Postie Pete has lost the unfulfilled Last Wills of the dearly departed!

Help gather up the Wills while you’re out skilling, completing daily tasks, or whenever you use your Treasure Hunter keys. Once you've gathered a few you can bring them to the Petes outside Death's Domain at Draynor Village. Then you can trade them in for Forgotten Belongings! These are the jumbled-up possessions of the deceased that have ended up in Lost Property.

Forgotten Belongings come in four varieties: Small (White), Medium (Blue), Large (Purple), and Soulful (Gold). And they contain some rewards to die for!

Here’s what you might find:

Soul Dye

Make your swag extra soulful with this luminescent dye! It can be found in any of the belongings, but is guaranteed from Soulful Belongings (you may even find double in there!)

Soul Witch Outfit

Chaos? So last season. Now it’s all about the Soul - and what better way to showcase that you have plenty than with this Witchy getup!

Titles

Some of the deceased left their titles behind when they passed on. Hey, you can't take it with you... Pick up 'Forgotten', ‘The Life and Soul’ and ‘Ensouled’ titles from the belongings.

Rummaging in Lost Property will also yield a variety of postal-themed bits and bobs that the Petes have accumulated over the years.

Speak to the two Petes at the entrance to Death's Office, near the Draynor Lodestone, to get started.

Parcels From The Dead starts today (June 19th) and runs until July 17th. There will be an extra week after the event ends to hand in any remaining Last Wills.

Oh, and remember to check in with the Petes daily to receive bonus belongings for your troubles!


Upcoming Completionist Cape Changes
Trimming just got a little more complete!

In April we asked you about some changes to the Trimmed Completionist Cape. As of next week's update (June 26th), the Master Quest Cape, Reaper Crew and full Globetrotter Outfit will be folded into the requirements for the TCC.

We will not be adding 'Are You Winning, Zam? II' to the Cape, nor renaming either the Completionist or Trimmed Completionist Capes at this time.

Thank you all for your involvement in these polls! If have any suggestions for other Cape updates, please let us know.
