Revision as of 20:32, 15 December 2019

This page may require cleanup to meet basic quality standards. The specific problem is: requirement table is still a mess, mostly because of non-standard listing of requirements.. You can help by modifying the article. The discussion page may contain useful suggestions.

This page is for updated version, commonly called RuneScape 3. For re-release of the 2007 Java Client, see Old School RuneScape.
