This week's update brings War’s Retreat, a brand new PvM hub for all your bossing needs, as well as the Winter Chill Off for some Skill versus Skill action! We’ve also made a number of changes based on your direct feedback, including QoL improvements to The Charming Imp, Cluster Task additions for Frost Dragons, and more. Read on for full details!




War’s Retreat



Show those bosses who's boss! Face Gielinor's deadliest bosses in War's Retreat and earn Marks of War to spend on auras, upgrades, and more. Or, relax with your chums (and shore up your life points) at the campfire. We’ve detailed all of the information in our weekly News Post that you can read here .
