Bounty Hunter is a PvP minigame that debuted in 2007 and saw players entering into three craters, each with a combat level cap to duke it out for glory and loot. This return to Bounty Hunter will implement a few changes to make the mini-game a more approachable venture for PvP beginners.
A new, quick matchmaking tool will pair players with combatants of similar combat skill levels so there will also be a fair fight. This minigame takes place in a dedicated arena called the Crater. Each player will be assigned a target when they enter the crater, and the victors are rewarded with the target’s loot (as is standard) and additional emblems that can be exchanged for unique items.
Rewards include Statius’ Armour, Vesta’s Armour, Zuriel’s robes, as well as access to Ancient Warrior Weapons including Statius’ Warhammer, Vesta’s Longsword, Morrigan’s Throwing Axe and more. There are certain items that can be imbued with special enchantments that enhance their magics when used in Bounty Hunter combat. These include the Dark Bow, Dragon Mace, Dragon Longsword, Abyssal Dagger and more.
This year, the Old School RuneScape team began the process of adding a new skill for the first time in the game’s 10-year history. Passing the pitching stage, the new skill of Sailing will now enter refinement before it is put before the community for the lock-in vote. Learn more about community polling and the skill development schedule over on the Old School RuneScape website.
