Runescape clenches the Fist of Guthix
The developers of Runescape have released information about the new content coming into the game this month. Their April update details a number of new game elements, but the highlight is a brand new combat minigame. Called the Fist of Guthix, the objective of the game is to obtain charges from an energy well located in the center of the gameplay area. The 'catch' is that (as with many parts of Runescape) the Fist is a PvP game. You have one or more opponents trying to kill you as you attempt to complete your goal. The rewards for successfully obtaining these charges is great loot for the level, of course, including the Rune Berserker Shield and the Battle Armor set.
Other April additions include a new installment of Treasure Trails, the fourth quest in the Myreque quest seires: "Legacy of Seergaze", graphical improvements to the Morytania entrance area and brand new improvements to the website. The Grand Exchange Database is set to go live this month with graphical and technical improvements, fulfilling the players' economic needs. Elsewhere on the site, there's an announcement that they're changing the way that they charge players through PayPal. The result will be a lower cost for folks who exclusively use that service to pay for their subscription.
