Death

It’s a scattershot Ninja Strike covering QoL changes to skilling and the Zamorak boss fight. We then go back in time to 2015 Mazcab and have another look at RuneScape’s first Raid.

How does the new death system benefit you? We will let you know! Our favourite Distraction and Diversion tweaks are in. Also, our thoughts on antivirus software and Tuska!

I’m terribly sorry to report that this weeks recording was plagued by a rare technical issue. We were able to salvage most of the show including one listener question. The subsequent questions will be answered next week. As always, we hope you take as much enjoyment out of the show as we get from making it.
