RuneScape Releases Wilderness Reborn

via press release

Today, RuneScape launches a rework for the previously PvP zone, The Wilderness. A ruleset change launches today which makes Player-vs-Player combat optional and introduces a brand new focus on player vs monster experiences. There is also a brand new quest Daughter of Chaos which kicks off the Legacy of Zamorak storyline.

RuneScape’s infamous PvP zone has been reworked in Wilderness Reborn to make it an approachable and exciting area for all RuneScape players, not just those with a taste for high skill combat. Alongside a graphical overhaul, PvP is now automatically turned off with an opt-in option for PvP enthusiasts. The new focus is on Player-vs-Monster combat for solo and group play as well as a brand new area for Slayer skilling.

However, before diving into Wilderness Reborn, players will want to play the new Daughter of Chaos quest which is the perfect first step for players looking to re-explore The Wilderness following the ruleset rework.

The new Daughter of Chaos quest is hand-crafted to be approachable for new and veteran players alike. With an emphasis on the player-vs-monster combat. Completing this quest will unlock a 10% damage reduction and 5% damage boosting bonus while exploring the once-feared battleground. This new quest will introduce brand new lore of RuneScape’s new season which will lay the foundations for the new six months of story.

The Wilderness will continue to thrive as new events and content will be added throughout this year and beyond, including a Wilderness-themed Yak Track releasing later this summer.
