Yama, the New Boss, Emerges in Great Kourend in Old School RuneScape

Old School RuneScape's latest update plunges players back into the political intrigue and infernal depths of Great Kourend, where an ancient and enraged force has awakened. The new boss, Yama, Master of Pacts, has been unleashed—a formidable fire-drenched minotaur demon who has been amassing power in the Chasm of Fire, biding his time for the perfect moment to unleash chaos.

For those who have completed the quest A Kingdom Divided and tackled the Royal Titans, this update seamlessly continues the narrative. After confronting Yama’s Judge in 2021, it was clear that the true menace was still lurking—complete with wings, horns, hooves, and a menacing two-handed axe. Yama is not alone; he's accompanied by the Disciples of Yama, a fanatical group of fire-worshipping cultists willing to sacrifice themselves for their master.

Designed for high-level players, the battle against Yama requires the completion of the quest, top-tier combat stats, and the best gear available. The encounter can be tackled solo or with a team. Victory over Yama grants access to valuable loot, including Demon Tallow for brewing Surge Potions, the Chasm of Fire Teleport Scroll, new Grimoire Pages, and other hidden treasures.

The Chasm of Fire itself has seen significant expansion. A new area dedicated to mining and smithing has been added, where players can extract Crimson Lovakite, a rare resource exclusive to this fiery domain. This material can be used to craft Oathplate, a powerful new armor set that enhances late-game builds. Even players not interested in boss battles have a compelling reason to explore this area.
