Brrr... bit cold, innit? So what better time to catch some winter sun at Het’s Oasis? Get stuck in with the restoration effort and you’ll soon work up a sweat – and nab yourself some red hot rewards…
The Eye of Het II miniquest is ready and waiting at Het’s Oasis! Icthlarin continues his investigation into the mysterious relic that could be crucial to the battle of Senntisten… lend him a hand, will you?
Don’t get too distracted though, because the temporary Oasis Restoration event is now entering its final stretch! There’ll be regular new tasks to complete all week, and each one counts towards unlocking the Community Chest. This means lots of lovely loot for everyone as we add the finishing touches to our glistening new desert paradise!
As of today, we're also boosting progression rates so we can make that final charge towards the finish line. There's no better time to get your hands dirty!
Oasis Restoration ends on January 18th. Check out the full details here: https://rs.game/HetsOasis

Het's Oasis:
- Crocodiles will no longer get stuck during a Scarab catch if another player catches one first.
- Dispersing gas clouds on flower bushes will no longer allow players to infinitely gain the maximum XP.
- Fixed an issue during the Eye of Het I miniquest, where Icthlarin was not appearing if the player teleported out of the instance before entering the tomb.
- During the instance in Eye of Het I, the Rope Ladder and Fallen Palm Tree can no longer be used - this will prevent players from leaving the instance by accident!
- A typo on the Rewards interface has also been fixed - 'Strength of Het' has been replaced with 'Might of Het'.
- Catching Scarabs with crocodiles is now not shared between players.
- Crocodiles will no longer get stuck behind a wall when dropping loot.
- Prayer Powders will now correctly disappear from the Buff Bar when depleted.
- Failing the last obstacle on the Het's Oasis Agility Course was providing the player with a debuff which was taken forwards into their next lap. This was intended behaviour, but after feedback, this will no longer happen.
- Planks stored in the Construction Plank box can now be used to make flower hotspots.
- A Tool Leprechaun has been added next to the new Cactus Patch in Het's Oasis.
- Powder of Item Protection will now correctly protect an extra item on death when using the Protect Item prayer.
- Players were failing obstacles with the Surefooted Aura and Agility Skillcape boosts activated – this has now been fixed, and these boosts will prevent you from failing.
- Toadflax Incense Sticks also now give a chance to save yourself from failing an obstacle.
- The Cramulet can now be interacted with when equipped.
- A few mounds of sand at the Kharid-Et Digsite that were floating above the ground have been fixed.
- Fixed an issue that allowed players to gather multiple Hekas and Het Masks from inside the Statue of Het.
Het's Oasis
A devastating earthquake has left the Duel Arena in rubble around Het's Tomb. It's up to Icthlarin and the players to clean things up! Let's see how things are going...
Demonheadge has found some strange portals while helping out. All Health and Safety compliant, probably...
While Nixedlabvax has been marvelling upon Het's wonderful visage:
It's all about the simple things in life, though. In that spirit, RobbyDraws has taken to dog walking in the new Oasis Flower Beds!
