Security
Why not learn how to keep your account secure whilst having fun in game? Now all of our players can, be they members or free players, level 3 to 126. When the Barbarians moved their mining operations to the centre of the village, little did they know that they would unearth the strangest dungeon yet encountered in RuneScape. Haunted by lost spirits which seem to have taken over the doors and infested with beasts never seen before, it makes an adventure and a half simply getting through each of the four levels.
The doors in the area will ask you questions about account security, and the best ways to make your account safe, such as using recovery questions. Take your time to think about the questions they ask and the answers available, and you’ll get through the dungeon in no time at all. Remember their advice, and you can learn a thing or two on the way. After all, secure accounts are the best kind of accounts!
You can find out more about it by picking up a book in your local general store and investigating the first part of the dungeon thoroughly. As well as some new creatures and talking doors you might also pick yourself up a reward or two! Plunder the treasures of the Stronghold of Security (http://kbase.runescape.com/lang/en/aff/runescape/viewarticle.ws?article_id=2618) to find new boots, a new sceptre, 4 new emotes and a whole heap of golden shiny things. Be aware that like any other dungeon with monsters, if you die you WILL lose your equipment, so come prepared for combat.
The Skull Sceptre looks like the only good thing coming from this update, allowing teleportations to Barbarian Village. The rest looks like an attempt to reduce password scamming.
Pirates
The gates of Mos Le'Harmless have been thrown open!
Players can now explore the whole of the island, and participate in the new minigame, Trouble Brewing. Join a team of brave, bold, and fireproof pirates to brew some bootleg "rum" for fun and profit. Train firemaking and cooking the pirate way! Douse burning pipes with water! Boil flowers for colouring! Get monkeys to fetch nuts from high branches! Rewards on offer include a staggering array of pirate clothing, and for the most dedicated players there are several pirate flags to be had. Players looking to make more of their own brewing will also be interested in one of the other potential rewards, which can help dramatically with your mature ales.
Even Pirates need instructions occasionally, so all the activities and tips on how to play the game are recorded in a helpful manual in game, along with an excellent Knowledge Base report.
Slayer masters have also been informed of the dangerous creatures that roam the island, and will now send players that can access the island after Cave Horrors. Be sure to take a Witchwood Icon and a light with you if you go after these howling beasts, since they're as dangerous as they are ugly. Players that train Slayer might be interested in the masks they wear, as they provide a nice attack bonus when on a slayer task.
We've also released a new random event this month. One of the Camelot beekeepers has a problem - his old beehives have stood around for a long time and they are starting to fall apart. Help him to reassemble the beehives, before you get stung and have to dive into a stream to escape the angry swarm! Bee careful not to get stung...
Looks like decent rewards, though im not that sure about the game itself :), anyway im gonna have a look!
