Yama, the New Boss, Emerges in Great Kourend: Old School RuneScape Returns

Old School RuneScape's latest update plunges players back into the tumultuous political landscape and the infernal depths of Great Kourend, where an ancient and malevolent force has awakened. The new boss, Yama, the Master of Pacts, is now available, a formidable fire-drenched minotaur demon who has been amassing power in the Chasm of Fire, biding his time to unleash chaos.

For those who have completed the A Kingdom Divided quest (and are done with Royal Titans), this update continues the saga. After confronting Yama’s Judge back in 2021, it was clear that the real menace was yet to be faced - a creature with wings, horns, hooves, and a deadly two-handed axe. Yama is accompanied by the Disciples of Yama, a fervent cult of fire-worshippers ready to sacrifice themselves for their master.

This battle is tailored for high-level players, requiring the quest to be completed, peak combat stats, and the best gear available. You can tackle this challenge solo or team up with friends. Overcoming Yama grants access to exclusive loot such as Demon Tallow for crafting Surge Potions, the Chasm of Fire Teleport Scroll, new Grimoire Pages, and other undisclosed treasures.

The Chasm of Fire has also been expanded to include a new area dedicated to mining and smithing. Here, you can extract Crimson Lovakite, a rare resource found only in this fiery locale. Use it to craft the Oathplate, a powerful new armor set that significantly enhances your late-game arsenal. Even if boss fights aren't your thing, this area offers ample reason to explore.
