The Poll will kick off Thursday 3rd November, so head to a Poll Booth in game or vote on the website to have your say on what treasures await within Mount Quidamortem!
Last Man Standing
The first high stakes Last Man Standing weekend was a roaring success. It's time to raise the stakes again and compete for a chance at fame and fortune. Costing 1 million gp per entry, high stakes LMS embodies risk and reward gameplay, offering a first place prize of 15 Million gp!
The prizing works out at ten times that of usual Last Man Standing, so in addition to the first place prize of 15m, 2nd place gets 5m, and 3rd-5th gain free entry to another High Stakes game.
However, there's not just fame and fortune to be won. There's also some new ways of wreaking havoc in the battle for survival. We've added in the Dragon Warhammer and Dragon Claws to the chests' loot. Claws may only be looted with Bloodier Keys however, so you'll have to get slaying for a chance to wield this legendary weapon.
To take part in High Stakes Last Man Standing, talk to Lisa, found just east of the Clan Wars bank.
One life. One goal.
Hardcore Ironman is coming in the next few weeks and offers a brand new way to experience Old School RuneScape. If you've ever wanted to squeeze a bit more challenge out of Gielinor, Hardcore Ironman is for you!
Once Hardcore Ironman is in game, you'll become one by talking to Juan at the end of Tutorial Island.
Once you've opted in and have left Tutorial Island, the challenge has begun. Any non-safe death will end your journey as a Hardcore Ironman.
You'll have to carefully plan your questing and bossing, keeping in mind that the slightest misstep could spell your end.
There are no second chances as a Hardcore Ironman. If you fall into the clutches of death, you will be stripped of your Hardcore status and your stats will be frozen on the prestigious Hardcore Ironman hiscores.
Prepare to take on the toughest challenge Old School has to offer later this month!
