Old School RuneScape's latest update plunges players back into the political turmoil and sinister depths of Great Kourend, where an ancient and enraged entity has awakened. The new boss, Yama, the Master of Pacts, is now live, a formidable fire-drenched minotaur demon who has been amassing power in the Chasm of Fire, biding his time to unleash havoc.
If you've completed the quest A Kingdom Divided (and are finished with Royal Titans), this update continues the saga seamlessly. After confronting Yama’s Judge back in 2021, it was clear the threat was far from over. Yama, with his wings, horns, hooves, and a menacing two-handed axe, emerges as the true menace. He is accompanied by the Disciples of Yama, a fervent group of fire-worshipping cultists ready to sacrifice themselves for their master.
The battle against Yama is tailored for high-level players. To stand a chance, you must have completed the quest, possess top-tier combat stats, and equip Best in Slot gear. The encounter can be tackled solo or with a team. Defeating Yama grants access to valuable loot, including Demon Tallow essential for brewing Surge Potions, the Chasm of Fire Teleport Scroll, new Grimoire Pages, and other hidden treasures.
The Chasm of Fire itself has undergone an expansion, now featuring dedicated spots for mining and smithing. Here, you can extract Crimson Lovakite, a rare resource found only in this fiery abyss. With Crimson Lovakite, you can craft Oathplate, a powerful new armor set that significantly enhances your late-game arsenal. Even if boss battles aren't your forte, the new mining and smithing opportunities provide ample reason to explore the Chasm.
