New Areas
An updated map of Varlamore! Note the greyed-out portions, which are part of GentleTractors original map and are not included in The Rising Darkness. If you cant view the image above, click here.
Todays update opens up two new areas of Varlamore the snowy mountains, and the island paradise of Aldarin.
On Darkfrost Mountain, youll encounter the Hueycoatl, an ancient monster which has started causing chaos for unwary travellers in the region. A little further east youll spot the Proudspire, the mysterious Tower of Ascension and the sprawling Twilight Temple all sites of great importance to the Varlamorians, but especially for the shadowy Twilight Emissaries...
Meanwhile, on the island of Aldarin, youll be able to sample their famous vineyards and have a go at some mixology of your own. Grapes produced here are destined for the Moonrise Brewery and Winery, which produces fine wines for Varlamores fanciest drinkers. Nearby, youll find the Alchemical Society, who could use your help brewing up potions. Oh, and while youre here, dont forget to kick back and enjoy a bit of drama we hear theres to be a very exciting play at the Amphitheatre on the eastern coast...
In both areas youll find plenty of things to do. People to talk to, Mining, Fishing, Hunter and Smithing nodes to train at, shops and vendors to trade with, and even a brand-new portal location for your Player-Owned House.

Mastering Mixology
If you cant view the image above, click here.
Discover a fresh approach to potion-making with this brand new Herblore activity. The Varlamorian Alchemists need a helping hand keeping up with demand, and there are plenty of rewards for your assistance.
Once again, the full details can be found in our Summer Summit Blog, but here's a quick rundown:
Gameplay
- There's no need for secondary ingredients here, so you'll only need to stock up on herbs.
- Take unnoted herbs from the convenient Bank Chest and use them on the nearby refiner.
- Refining herbs will give you Mox, Aga or Lye Paste depending on the herb type. You'll need all three pastes to consistently satisfy potion orders.
- You can store up to 300 Mox, Aga and Lye reagents in the hopper, with any excess Paste able to be stored in the Bank until you need it.
- You'll see three Potion Orders to choose from and an indicator for whether the end result needs to be Concentrated, Crystallised or Homogenous. Don't worry, there are convenient Lab notes nearby to tell you exactly what goes into each potion.
- To mix your potion, use the levers on the mixing table to fill up the mixing vessel.
- Grab the unfinished potion from the mixing vessel and either concentrate, crystallise or homogenise it at the corresponding machine to finish it off.
- Place your final potion on the conveyor belt to finish off your order and receive points depending on how much Mox, Aga or Lye was used to make it. These points can be used to purchase rewards, so you can always target orders that use more of the reagents you need more points for.
Rewards
For varying quantities of Mox, Aga and Lye points, you'll be able to snag a whole host of Herblore rewards!
- Potion Packs (untradeable, rewards tradeable potions), three varieties to choose from:
- Apprentice - requires Level 60 Herblore
- Adept - requires Level 70 Herblore

Colossal Wyrm Agility Course
If you cant view the image above, click here.
Worm Tongue, an anteater (stick with us, it's relevant), has been appointed by the Museum to lead a preservation effort and save the remains of this majestic Colossal Wyrm from a rampant termite infestation. While Worm Tongue used to be pretty adept at catching termites (on account of being an anteater), his age is catching up to him. He needs your help to preserve this ancient landmark... and supply him with snacks!
Gameplay
- There are two routes to choose from:
- Basic route for players with 50 Agility
- Advanced route for players above 62 Agility
- You'll receive slightly lower Agility XP than other training options due to its low intensity, however you'll have the chance to earn some unique rewards.
- To earn rewards, bring Worm Tongue every termite you can find. As you run your laps of the course, there's a chance for termites to appear on some obstacles. These are automatically picked up and stack in your Inventory.
Rewards
The simplest rewards are Amylase Packs and the Colossal Wyrm Agility Course teleport both of which do exactly what they say on the tin.
Varlamore Graceful Recolour
If you cant view the image above, click here.
Gather up enough termites and you can turn them in for a Graceful recolour that adds some Varlamorian flair to its base appearance. If you look closely, you'll notice some regal hints of deep blues and yellows, and also that your midriff is entirely exposed! You know what they say, if you've got it, flaunt it, but perhaps don't try wearing this in the Colosseum.
Squirrel Transmog
If you cant view the image above, click here.
Bone Squirrel. Need we say more? This creepy critter is the perfect companion for your boney adventures.
Thats all you need to know to get stuck into Varlamore: The Rising Darkness. If you want to know more, youll just have to do some exploring yourself...
Araxxor Changes
Last week, we rolled out Combat Achievements for Araxxor. It was great to see that so many of you enjoyed the new approach to speedrun tasks, where RNG smooths out over several kills. Your feedback is crucial in helping us shape the game together, so thanks for sharing your thoughts! You also had a few more suggestions, and were putting those into action this week.
If you cant view the image above, click here.
We started by addressing one of your top requests by adding information about the fail conditions to the Perfect Araxxor Achievement text.
If you cant view the image above, click here.
Our creative community never fails to impress with their brilliant ideas. One such gem was the suggestion to rename the 'Relaxed Gamer' task to 'Relaxxor', which we just couldnt resist. Check the Combat Achievements menu to see the new name in all its glory!
Other Changes
- Adjusted the Inquisitor Armour's Damage and Accuracy bonus to Crush. Now, each Inquisitor Armour piece (Plateskirt, Helmet, Hauberk) gives +2.5% Crush Accuracy and Damage when used alongside the Inquisitor's Mace, regardless of set effects. We know you've been waiting a long time for this one and we're sorry for the delay. The initial implementation and delay in fixing are both the result of internal miscommunications that we're working to improve. Now get out there and crush to your heart's content!
- Ever wished that run mode would automatically be enabled as soon as you regain some Run Energy? We hope so, because thats what weve implemented with Always On run mode! In the settings menu, you can now set a threshold at which run mode is automatically re-enabled. For example, if you set it to 20, when your character's energy runs out and starts walking, your character will automatically start running again once their energy restores to 20.
- The Quest Journal will now remain open when moving around and will also resize on larger screen sizes.
- You will now get a warning when dropping items in the Giants' Foundry during the Sleeping Giants quest.
- The flames on the Leagues IV: Trailblazer Reloaded trophies are now animated.
- Bridge Guard no longer spots the player at the safe spot near the north-western bridge during the Stealing Artifacts minigame.
- Farmers at Farming Patches throughout Gielinor now have a standard trade interface, instead of a cumbersome dialogue menu.
- Reduced the aggression radius of ancient wyverns.
- Making Ultracompost now gives token Farming XP.
- The S.T.A.S.H. unit at the top of the Watchtower can once again be used for storage before the quest is complete. This does not affect the quest requirement for the clue.
