Spring has sprung, and we sure are ready for it after a long winter. What better way to welcome the new season to Gielinor than with the return of the Spring Festival? Oh, and be sure to check out our Easter-themed Treasure Hunter for more eggscellent rewards! Let's crack on...#
Spring Festival returns today, so get skilling and put some sunshine in your step with a plethora of lovely rewards! Head to the area south of the Archaeology Guild to take part until April 24th.
- Skill at three stations, each awarding Spring Tokens and XP:
- Potion Brewing: Mix up some magic and earn either Herblore or Cooking XP - mmm, smells good!
- Icon Carving: Getting artsy with a tree trunk or two will earn you XP in either Fletching or Crafting. Who wood have thought.
- Stone Celebration Take a whirl around the standing stone and whip up some juicy XP in either Agility or Prayer!
- Note: Ironman accounts can get rewards from these activities, but cannot benefit from unlocked multiplier buffs.
Every hour, players will be blessed with the arrival of a giant butterfly! Formed of thousands of little butterflies, players will need to remove the little ones and return them to the Tree of Balance. From this activity, players can gain extra XP, increased event tokens and more chances for the Mystery Boxes! Expect a flood of activity when the butterfly swoops in…
Once you’ve got your Spring Tokens, you can spend them at Thaerisk's Surplus Spring Supply Shop. Goods for sale include:
- Past rewards like Crux Eqal and Butterfly Outfits, plus the new Egg-cited title.
- Consumables like Lamps and Stars.
- A Mystery Egg which rewards four items, including the chance to find Cosmetic Tokens and Butterfly Jars!
- Note: Ironman accounts can only get cosmetic Tokens – any other rewards from Mystery Boxes will be converted to Oddments.
Treasure Hunter goes Easter-themed from Thursday April 14th to Wednesday April 20th. Jump in for some truly eggsquisite rewards!
There are loads of festive cosmetics up for grabs, including the adorable Peep the Chick pet and the Woodland Fox Ears and Tail. These new items are tradeable too, so you can sell them on or buy them from other players using your GP.
As you use keys, you'll also earn progress to unlocking the Egg Smasher outfit! Definitely one to shell out for…
