There’s some Sliske business going in Gielinor this Easter – are you brave (or hungry) enough to find out what the malicious Mahjarrat is up to in his newly built chocolate factory?

Also, gear up for the Chronicle open beta by taking part in a special event this week with some fantastic rewards. If you get a spare moment, check out the rogue outfits in Solomon’s Store too!

Sliske and the Chocolate Factory

This event is open to both free-to-play andRuneScape members.

Sliske has set up a chocolate factory in the Empyrean Citadel for unknown reasons and is providing tours to lucky winners via rare chocolate butterflies that appeared alongside the yearly ones that arrive in memory of Guthix. Catch the last chocolate butterfly, get its golden ticket, sneak the Easter Bunny inside the citadel and investigate a factory filled with singing bobble-numbskulls and puzzles.

What’s Sliske up to? Will the other tour winners be safe without your help? Will there be any mysterious "accidents" in the factory? There is only one way to find out - grab the ticket, take the ride!

How to Start

Head over to the Burthrope lodestone and speak to the Easter Bunny. Then, catch the last chocolate butterfly to receive a golden ticket. This will teleport you to Sliske’s Chocolate Factory.

Rewards

A unique emote, an everlasting gobstopper (has some interesting effects when used!), the ability to catch 5 more Guthixian butterflies per day, and 3 parts of the event can be dismantled to create component bags for Invention. These can be claimed by anyone, even free-to-play players, and will wait until you are eligible to start Invention.

Keep an eye out for this week’s Treasure Hunter update which has a fun new format inspired by Guthixian butterflies and some awesome butterfly-themed rewards – let us know what you think!

Chronicle Open Beta Celebration | Book Companion Pet

The whole of Gielinor is gearing up for the open beta launch of our collectible card-game, Chronicle: RuneScape Legends on 23rd March.

From now until 4th April, get in game and look for characters playing Chronicle on special tables. Near them will be a Gorajo hoardstalker with a special gift for you – a Chronicle book companion pet. “Read” your book pet and answer a new Chronicle question each day for 14 days. Correctly answering all questions will grant you either prismatic star or lamp.

You can also use your book pet to “play” Chronicle. This starts a special animation and gives you a 5% XP boost for an hour. You can do this as many times as you like during the event. The pet must be active or used as a familiar override for this to work.

We hope you have fun joining us to celebrate the important moves that Chronicle is making!Ironman players can answer questions and earn a lamp (but not a star). Ironman players are unable to receive the XP buff for "playing Chronicle" with the pet.

The generals shadow miniquest item

FYI on the easter event-

 

 

It's pretty annoying / lame, but the rewards are worth it:

 

- 5 extra guthix butterflies a day, which for me is an extra 9000 xp in my lowest skill each day, for however long the butterflies are around.  

- A bunch of invention parts afterwards.  

• 300 Simple parts
• 200 Base parts
• 20 Enhancing components
• 20 Powerful components
• 20 Strong components

- A useless / silly gobstopper candy and a useless/silly emote.  

 

I'm mostly excited that I can build another couple of augmenters now.

That slider puzzle to dissemble the T.A.R.A. was the most annoying thing ever.

Seconded.

[Moto Bro]

I'm beginning to wish RS was like other games and just give you the holiday rewards for logging in and playing during said holiday, rather than making us do unenjoyable quests.

[Beric]

I loved this event. First time in years I've enjoyed a RS holiday.

[Moto Bro]

To be fair, I haven't done it yet but I keep hearing it's a pain in the ass.

 

On a side note, I really miss NXT.

That's probably because someone was making food in it.
