Cows, Chickens, Rabbits and the Fishing Trawler

Avast, ye landlubbers! Murphy at Port Khazard has discovered a new spot teeming with fish for his trawler! He can't haul in this bountiful booty by his lonesome, though. With more high-quality fishy things to catch (those with the ability to catch manta rays and turtles, for example, are likely to catch quite a few more on the trawler than they could previously), it's time to strap on your Fishing gear, fix those leaks and start reaping the rewards.

Bring your friends along for a voyage on the high seas, but don't be afraid to get wet! The more friends that set sail, the greater the chance of more fish. Murphy has also fashioned himself a handy bank deposit box to allow you to send your fish straight to your bank (assuming you have the space, of course)!

Dorgesh-Kaan

The Dorgeshuun Council has opened the doors of Dorgesh-Kaan to surface-dwellers. Within this mysterious city you can sell your exotic surface foods, swing across a new Agility course, fight a new Slayer monster, and take in the sights and sounds of the secret city of the cave goblins!

13 March 2007 - Burgh de Rott Ramble

Those brave adventurers who have recently helped out the Myreque in the Darkness of Hallowvale quest will find loot-minded mercenaries are waiting at Paterdomus looking for guides down to Burgh de Rott.

The ability of these so-called 'mercenaries' ranges from experienced down to vampyre-fodder, but they can all lend their support to the cause of the Myreque. As an experienced member of the Myreque, you know Mort Myre like the back of your hand, so who better to guide them to Burgh de Rott?

Any of these mercenaries would be well-disposed to reward those that successfully guide them to their destination, no doubt with useful skill-related items. This new journey means that players can now lead villagers to safety from Burgh de Rott and bring back a fresh recruit on the return, meaning every trek can have purpose and reward.

With the recently repaired bank in Burgh de Rott being so handy, it couldn't be easier to prepare for plying those Morytanian swamp routes for some useful experience rewards.

With the growing number of visitors to Mort Myre recently, it's hardly surprising to find that more predatory creatures are carving themselves a niche in this forbidding swamp, so even those of you already familiar with the swamp-dwelling residents from Temple Trekking will be in for more surprises. Strange stories of dark nail beasts, humans turning into ghasts and zombie lumberjacks have all been reported to the authorities at Paterdomus - let's just hope you don't run into them when doing the Burgh de Rott Ramble.

Behind the Scenes - March

Hold onto your Robin Hood hats, good people of RuneScape: March is going to be bigger than a big thing on a big day viewed through a very big sextant! With zombie pirates a-plenty, the opening of Dorgesh-Kaan and a whole host of new things to do, there'll be something for everyone to sink their rune scimitar into… Read the full article here

Minigame updates

The Barbarian Assault minigame has received a small update today. Those who have been successfully defeating the vile Penance creatures will be pleased to hear that Commander Connad is now offering even greater rewards than before for anyone who feels brave enough to risk their points in his high-level gamble.

The barbarians are also offering a new way to cash in points to advance your level in the four roles. At the end of a wave, the message scroll now features a button that will let you exchange points for a higher level in the role you have just played. This lets you advance your level without leaving your team-mates to visit Commander Connad.

In addition to these changes, the Sorceress's apprentice is now refusing to let people take pets into the Sorceress's Garden.
