Tales of the God Wars | Preview God Wars Dungeon 2

Seismic activity has freed the entrance to God Wars Dungeon 2 from the sands that buried it! Get a preview of what you can expect from this deadly dungeon by taking on Tales of the God Wars. Venture across Gielinor that to uncover the events that lead to God Wars Dungeon 2 and reveal the bosses who lurk in its depths and who will be spoiling for a fight with you later this month.

Ancient Outfits have also arrived in stock to Solomon's Store - don't worry, they're not old and threadbare, they're actually rather classy!

A mysterious old man, the Curator, stands by the entrance to God Wars Dungeon 2. He needs your help to finish the chapters of a strange book. Travel across Gielinor, track down the memories of ancient rivalries that still spark conflict and return them to the book’s mysterious pages. Doing so will allow you to view the events that lead to God Wars Dungeon 2 and will reveal something about the bosses who lurk in its depths…

How to Start

Speak to the Curator in the Kharidian desert. He is west of Nardah and north of the agility pyramid.

RuneScape members only.
