Survive Shifting Tombs, Alter Desert

RuneScape enthusiasts, get ready for an epic adventure as the game unveils its latest update, "Return to the Desert: Pharaoh's Folly," through an exciting Dev's Diary for April. This brand-new quest, available from now until April 28th, challenges players to survive the perilous Shifting Tombs and alter the fate of the desert with the help of beloved characters Leela and Ozan.

Here’s the Full Scoop on the Pharaoh’s Folly in RuneScape

The situation in the Kharidian desert is heating up as Menaphos faces internal chaos. The tension escalates when Osman, a pivotal figure, betrays his own people, leading the city towards collapse. The populace is divided, and the ominous presence of Amascut looms in the shadows, signaling the beginning of even greater dangers ahead.

You won’t face these challenges alone. With Leela leading the charge and new allies, including some adorable pets, at your side, you'll delve into the ancient secrets of Menaphos. Your mission? Uncover the true intentions behind Osman’s actions and navigate through the treacherous landscape.

Heading Back into the Heat Again

Successfully completing the Pharaoh’s Folly quest in RuneScape comes with rewarding perks. You'll earn Thieving and Agility XP, gain the prestigious title "The Rabble-Rouser," and receive a new bracelet called Leela’s Favour. This bracelet is especially handy, as it allows teleportation across all districts of Menaphos, the Sophanem slayer dungeon, the Shifting Tombs, and all active soul obelisks.

However, the "Return to the Desert: Pharaoh’s Folly" quest is not for the faint-hearted or the inexperienced. To embark on this journey, you'll need a Slayer level of 87, completion of the initial quest "Beneath Scabaras’ Sands," and to have ticked off various objectives from the "Do No Evil" quest within Phite Club. Additionally, ensure you've built the necessary structures from the Fort Forinthry storyline. Only then can you meet Leela outside Menaphos' gates and attempt to steer the city away from the brink of disaster.

If you meet all these criteria, don't hesitate—grab RuneScape from the Google Play Store and embark on your "Return to the Desert" adventure today!
