Season 7 update 3 - The Abyss

by RockTheFlag

Hello everyone and welcome to the 3rd Minescape content update of season 7!

Minescape - The Abyss

In this update, we're bringing you our first miniquest - Enter the Abyss!

Enter the Abyss

Head over to the risky wilderness and try to help the Mage of Zamorak to unlock his secret to fast runecrafting! This new miniquest should ease the runecrafting process for everyone in the world of Minescape.

Minescape - The Abyss Creatures

Alongside the quest, we've also added 4 rune essence pouches:

  • Small pouch - required level 1 in Runecrafting, holds 3 rune essence, and never breaks.
  • Medium pouch - required level 25 in Runecrafting, holds 6 rune essence, and breaks after 90 uses.
  • Large pouch - required level 50 in Runecrafting, holds 9 rune essence, and breaks after 60 uses.
  • Giant pouch - required level 75 in Runecrafting, holds 12 rune essence, and breaks after 25 uses.
Minescape - Rune Essence Pouches

The pouches can be obtained by killing abyssal creatures inside the abyss. Killing the monsters will reward the pouches in order of size. Pouches are soul-bound (e.g. obtaining 2 small ones will not allow them to carry 6 rune essence). Once the pouches break - they may be repaired inside the abyss by talking to Dark Mage.

Resourcepack changes

We've adjusted network resourcepack generation and made the following changes:

  • Lobby game selector and profile UI has been updated.
GamesLabs - New Game Selector and Profile UI
  • Minescape (old) resourcepack is now available as an optional pack in in-game options.
  • Fixed various issues in the zombies game resourcepack.
