Old School RuneScape's latest update delves deeper into the political turmoil and infernal depths of Great Kourend, where an ancient and formidable force has awakened. The new boss, Yama, the Master of Pacts, is now live—a fiery minotaur demon who has been amassing power in the Chasm of Fire, biding his time for the perfect moment to unleash chaos.
If you've completed the A Kingdom Divided quest (and finished with Royal Titans), this update continues the narrative seamlessly. After confronting Yama's Judge back in 2021, it was clear the true menace was yet to come—manifesting as a creature with wings, horns, hooves, and a menacing two-handed axe. Yama is not alone; he's 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. You'll need to have completed the quest, possess top-tier combat stats, and equip the Best in Slot gear to stand a fighting chance. This challenging encounter can be tackled solo or with a team. Triumph over Yama grants you access to new loot, including Demon Tallow for brewing Surge Potions, the Chasm of Fire Teleport Scroll, Grimoire Pages, and other hidden treasures.
The Chasm of Fire has also been expanded to include a dedicated area for mining and smithing. Here, you can gather Crimson Lovakite, a rare resource found only in this fiery abyss. With it, you can forge the new Oathplate armor set, enhancing your late-game arsenal. Even if boss fights aren't your thing, there's plenty of reason to explore this area.
