WildyWyrm Flash Event and Valentines - This Week In RuneScape

Written by developer on . Posted in RuneScape News

Wildwyrm joins the roster for Wilderness Flash Events, and some adorable sprites have heartwarming gifts for you....

Wilderness Flash Events : Wildywyrm
Would you still love me if I was a wyrm?

Starting from today, the elusive Wildywyrm will be making more scheduled appearances as part of Wilderness Flash Events! This will be a special combat event in the same vein as the King Black Dragon event, so get ready to rumble for some juicy rewards. You'll find the wyrm reporting for duty near to the source of the River Lum – but beware, that thing is just as dangerous as ever! With any luck – and the help of some friendly adventurers – you'll come out on top...

Slay the wyrm for sacks of Wild and Very Wild rewards – plus the exclusive Wyrm Reward Gland, which may contain Wyrm Spikes, Hearts or Scalps!

This event is placed into the list after the "Unnatural Outcrop" event, and so the first spawn available will be at 23:00 GMT.


Devotion Sprites
Love is in the air...

It's nearly Valentine's Day, so here's some news to make your heart flutter – loved-up Devotion Sprites have begun appearing near the lodestones in Burthorpe, Varrock, Lumbridge and Prifddinas! Catching one of these Devotion Sprites each day will net you a Lovely Gift Box, containing either Heartments (Oddments for Ironmen), Valentine's Chocolates or the Rose Tinted Glasses.

Devotion sprites will be rewarding a Lovely Gift Box from February 9th to 15th.


Double XP LIVE
Coming February 16th

DXP LIVE is a 10-day event where you have 48 Hours of Double XP to use at your leisure. You can even pause the timer if you need to do other activities but don't want to lose out on that precious DXP time. If you won't be using all your hours, you can trade an hour of DXP per day for credits to use with Nic The Trader. You can find out more here!

Double XP LIVE returns on Friday, February 16th until Monday, February 26th, starting and ending at 12:00 PM Game Time.


Treasure Hunter Calendar
What's up next?

Starts February 6th | Ends February 7th| Mysteria

Mysteria constantly rotates multiple versions of Treasure Hunter over the course of two days. Jump in to see what's on the cards!

Starts February 8th | Ends February 14th | Gifts from the Heart

The Valentine's-alicious Gifts From The Heart event returns from Feb 8th. This year, we've introduced brand new Cherry Blossom themed offhands in Wand/Orb and Fan varieties!

The Heartments store also makes a return, with wares including the brand new Rosie pet. You can shower yourself in Rose Petals with the new Rose Petal Aura Override, or add two other Pets to your collection with Lovebird and Lovebug. All are available using Heartments until February 21st!
