Hello everyone,
We have been eagerly waiting to reveal something we have been working on recently, and we feel like now is the right time to reveal it to you all, which is the fifth edition of Leagues!
For those unfamiliar with the idea of Leagues, it's quite simple. You make a new account that is locked to the island of Kourend and your goal is to complete as many tasks as you can in 6 weeks. As you complete more and more tasks, you will be given the option to unlock other regions. Achieving certain point milestones allows you to unlock Relics, which are overpowered boosts to your account.
Now lets run through all of this in a little more detail so you can familiarize yourself with what's to come.
Regions
This Leagues, we're spicing things up, rather than unlocking all the regions as you unlock new relics, you will now be able to choose 5/6 available regions as you complete tasks and progress, forging your own path.
You will begin in the Kourend region, with it automatically unlocked, and be able to unlock the Morytania, Varlamore, Karamja, Desert, and Tirannwn regions.
- Second region unlock:
- 1 task completion required
- Third region unlock:
- 90 total task completions required.
- Fourth region unlock:
- 200 total task completions required.
- Fifth region unlock:
- 400 total task completions required
Unlocking the Morytania region will provide players with a Drakan’s medallion.
Raids Megarare Vouchers
This league, when you complete the Theatre of Blood, Chambers of Xeric, and Tombs of Amascut, instead of obtaining the corresponding mega-rare item (Scythe of Vitur, Twisted Bow, Tumeken’s Shadow), you will instead obtain a voucher than you use to claim any of the 3 mega-rare items.
This is great for people that enjoy doing a specific raid but would love to experience a megarare from another raid.
Echo Bosses
Each region has a specific boss that players will be able to take on in a harder echo variant.
Players can do so by killing the normal boss, and obtaining the corresponding echo orb to challenge the echo boss, similar to the Awakener's orb in the main game.

Relics
Relics are powerful buffs which are unlocked with League Points. Relics offer bonuses that boost actions related to gathering, processing, teleportation, and combat. Upon completing the league tutorial, players are presented with the choice of their first relic between three. Additional relics can be unlocked as players reach certain point thresholds and unlock new tiers.
We thought it would be a good idea to show you all of the relics so that you can plan ahead, so lets dive right into it!

Tier 2:
Tier 3:
Tier 4:
Tier 5:
Tier 6:

Wishing you a great week,
