Yama Emerges as New Boss in Old School RuneScape's Great Kourend

Old School RuneScape's latest update plunges players back into the political turmoil and infernal depths of Great Kourend, where an ancient and enraged entity has awakened. Introducing Yama, the Master of Pacts, a formidable new boss—a fire-drenched minotaur demon who has been amassing power in the Chasm of Fire, biding his time until now.

If you've completed the quest A Kingdom Divided and tackled the Royal Titans, this update seamlessly continues the narrative. Following your encounter with Yama's Judge in 2021, it was clear that the real menace was still lurking—a creature adorned with wings, horns, hooves, and wielding a fearsome two-handed axe. Yama is not alone; he's supported by the Disciples of Yama, a cult of fire-worshipping zealots who are fiercely loyal and ready to perish in his name.

Designed for high-level players, the battle against Yama requires completion of the prerequisite quest, top-tier combat stats, and the best-in-slot gear. Whether you choose to face him solo or with a group, the challenge is rewarding. Triumph over Yama grants access to new loot, such as Demon Tallow essential for brewing Surge Potions, the Chasm of Fire Teleport Scroll, new Grimoire Pages, and several other hidden treasures.

The Chasm of Fire has also been expanded to include a dedicated area for mining and smithing. Here, you can harvest Crimson Lovakite, a rare resource unique to this area. With Crimson Lovakite, you can craft the Oathplate, a new armor set that significantly enhances your late-game arsenal. This addition provides value for players interested in more than just boss fights, giving everyone a reason to explore the Chasm.
