Stellar Born - New Star Sprite Quest! - This Week In RuneScape

Posted by on

Stellar Born - A New Star Sprite Quest!
What's that in the Sky?

The Star Sprites are stepping into the spotlight! Stellar Born is a brand new quest that explores the origins of these mysterious beings and sends you on a journey that reaches far beyond Gielinor.

For years, adventurers have mined fallen Shooting Stars and met the cheery Sprites within. Now, with the discovery of a stranded Sprite named Zoob near Piscatoris, youll finally learn where they come from and what keeps their magic burning bright.

A Star Falls at Piscatoris

Your story begins at Piscatoris, where a mysterious fallen star sets events into motion. Investigate the crash site to meet Zoob and kick off your cosmic adventure

A Cosmic Motive

The quest takes a light-hearted approach while answering some long-standing questions about the Sprites: where they come from, what powers the stars, and why their magic has started to waver. With the help of Wizard Rosalina and her long-time rival Wizard Chambers, youll venture into the cosmos to find out more.

Among the Stars

For the first time, youll leave Gielinor behind and set foot on the home world of the Star Sprites. Equipped with your Wingsuit, youll soar across floating islands, meet the Elder Sprite, and experience a culture thats as whimsical as it is otherworldly. And yes, at some point, you may even be helping Zoob phone home

Rewards & Requirements

To get started on Stellar Born you will need the following:

  • 70 Mining
  • 70 Divination
  • Completion of "Observatory Quest"
  • Completion of the "Wing Out" Mystery

Complete Stellar Born to earn:

  • 2 Quest Points
  • 500 Stardust
  • +5% XP from Shooting Stars
  • 30,000 Divination XP lamp
  • 30,000 Mining XP lamp
  • A Magical Meteorite Chunk
    • Transmog into a Star Sprite
    • Teleport back to the planet
  • Permanent access to the new Star Sprite home world!

And thats not all! Star Sprites across Gielinor will now recognise your efforts, your Star Sprite pet will have new dialogue, and the home world itself comes packed with extras, including achievements, a handy bank chest, and a repeatable skilling activity to make future visits worthwhile.

So keep your telescope polished and your Wingsuit buckledthe stars are calling, and theyve never shone brighter!
