Bill felt emboldened by his previous explorations throughout RuneRebels, and was hungry for a new challenge. He decided that he wanted to explore a new realm, and consulted with a powerful mage that granted him access to a dangerous place filled with monsters. After mastering the obstacles around the outer edges of the area, he found himself with quick access to all of the Runecrafting alters in RuneRebels!
Not happy with just exploring one new area, he then marched on over to Burthorpe where he did some absolutely insane gambling to obtain a nice pair of boots. He didn't realize it, but he ended up gambling with some random guy in Burthope for almost half a year!
Finally, Bill decided he needed a nice tropical vacation, so he decided to catch a boat to Karamja. Little did he know that he was about to be haunted by an undead spirit, and also
break the entire RuneRebels universe by asking Ryan for help with a ladder...
Hello players! We apologize about the delay in this update, as it was another giant one and we needed a bit of extra time to polish things up and not accidentally kill Bill and Ryan in the process. Bill has absolutely killed it for this update, and we have
three new quests for you. We hope that you have fun
Entering the Abyss, trolling your way into
Death Plateau, and discovering shiny treasure in
Shilo Village. Some of these quests have been in the works for months or even years, so we hope that you enjoy them!
Secondly, we've fixed a TON of bugs in the game and engine, including tons of timing improvements by re-doing how many events are timed. You'll notice faster and better timing and feel when interacting with Npcs, teleporting, using ladders, using stairs, using trapdoors, and so much more. If anything feels off, please let us know in the bug reports section on the forums or in Discord!
Lastly, as an apology for the update being a bit delayed, we will be activating
double experience for the next three days. We will try and do better with the scheduling, but we wanted to make sure that the content we released actually worked properly. However, if you do find any bugs, please report them to us!
