Cleanse the Gate of Elidinis in RuneScapes second skilling boss encounter atop the Sanctum of Rebirth.
Runescape's Second-Ever Skilling Boss
High atop the Sanctum of Rebirth lies the Gate of Elidinis, a crucial part of the cycle of rebirth - but now, it's under attack by Amascut and her followers. Here, you'll need to use your non-combat skills to put a stop to the corruption that has taken hold of this sacred place.
Dive into a fast-paced skilling encounter where you'll cleanse the corruption amassing in the Statue of Elidinis. Face it alone for a solo experience or bring along up to nine other adventurers as you craft, mine, divine and dodge your way to victory! Earn powerful rewards such as Runecrafting and Divination skilling off-hands, a new God book and Combat Prayer, and, if you complete the encounter 100 times, a beautiful skybox!
Check out our recent blog for more details about the boss and rewards!
Gather Shards to Earn new rewards!
With the launch of this boss, Priestesses of Elidinis have appeared outside the Sanctum of Rebirth and at the Grand Exchange.
They're looking for adventurers to take part in the Gate of Elidinis Hunt until October 6th. We highly recommend joining in, as there's a mountain of benefits for participating heroes!
Complete tasks to earn Moonstone Shards, which you can then exchange for new cosmetic items and handy short-term buffs! Here's what goodies you can unlock...
Divine Moon Guard and Lantern Overrides
Punish your foes in the name of the moon with these snazzy new Lantern and Death Guard overrides! These cosmetic overrides will be added to the Gate of Elidinis loot table as very rare drops once this event ends.
Buffs
Completing the hunt event will also earn you a couple of gameplay buffs!
- Infinite Porters: Provides a guaranteed 'porter' effect (which transports valid items to the Bank when gathered) while the buff is active.
- Skilling Cauldrons: Provides access to Skilling Cauldrons at War's Retreat which will give you the benefits of the Agility, Crafting, Super Mining and Extreme Divination potions when interacted with.
- 10% Increased Rare Drop Chance for the Gate of Elidinis encounter during the Hunt event.
Buffs can be enabled or disabled any time after you have completed the hunt. The buffs are available to use for 14 days once you complete the Hunt - disabling the buff will not stop the 14-day timer that begins once you earn the buffs.
This event will run from September 23rd until October 6th and follows the design of previous hunt events, where you'll set out to collect eight shards by completing a variety of tasks.
As with other, similar events, we've made sure the tasks cover a broad spectrum - if you're not usually the PvMing type, you can still pick up these rewards by completing non-boss tasks.
There are a total of 12 tasks available to gather Shards from but you will only need to collect 8 Shards in total. Take a look:
Task List (click to expand)
- Repair the Gate of Elidinis (infinitely repeatable until all shards have been collected).
- One Shard for your first completion, subsequent shards every 20th completion.
- Complete the Ode of the Devourer quest (given on login if the quest is completed before the event starts).
- Have an active Premier Membership (given on login if active as the event starts).
- Log in on seven separate days throughout the event period.
