Old School RuneScape’s latest update plunges you back into the tumultuous political landscape and the infernal depths of Great Kourend, where an ancient and malevolent force has finally 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 quest A Kingdom Divided and faced the Royal Titans, this update continues the saga seamlessly. After confronting Yama’s Judge in 2021, it was clear that the true menace was still lurking—a formidable creature with wings, horns, hooves, and a menacing two-handed axe. Yama is 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. To stand a chance, you'll need to have completed the quest, possess top-tier combat stats, and equip the Best in Slot gear. Whether you choose to tackle this challenge solo or with friends, defeating Yama grants access to valuable loot, including Demon Tallow for brewing Surge Potions, the Chasm of Fire Teleport Scroll, new Grimoire Pages, and several other hidden treasures.
The Chasm of Fire itself has been expanded to include new areas for mining and smithing. Here, you can harvest Crimson Lovakite, a rare resource unique to this scorching abyss. With it, you can craft the Oathplate, a robust new armor set that significantly enhances your late-game arsenal. Even if boss fights aren't your style, the Chasm offers compelling reasons to explore its depths.
