RS Pharaoh’s Folly: Alter Fate in Shifting Tombs

RuneScape Releases April Developer Diary Featuring Pharaoh’s Folly Update

Jagex has unveiled their April Developer Diary detailing the latest RuneScape update – Return to the Desert: Pharaoh's Folly. This brand-new limited-time quest launches today and remains available until April 28th. Players must navigate the treacherous Shifting Tombs alongside Leela and Ozan to alter the desert's destiny.

Everything You Need to Know About Pharaoh's Folly

Tensions are reaching boiling point in the Kharidian desert as Menaphos descends into turmoil. Following Osman's shocking betrayal of his own people, the once-great city now faces collapse from within.

The populace stands divided, Amascut's sinister influence spreads through the shadows, and the situation grows increasingly dire. Surviving the Shifting Tombs merely marks the first challenge in this unfolding crisis.

Thankfully, you won't face these dangers alone. Leela joins the fray alongside new allies – including some helpful animal companions. Together, you'll uncover Menaphos' ancient secrets while deciphering Osman's true motives.

Braving the Desert Once More

Successful completion of Pharaoh's Folly brings impressive rewards: Thieving and Agility XP boosts, the prestigious "The Rabble-Rouser" title, and Leela's Favour bracelet.

This powerful new accessory grants teleport access across Menaphos' districts, Sophanem's slayer dungeon, the shifting tombs, and all active soul obelisks.

Quest Requirements

Adventurers fresh from Lumbridge won't qualify for Return to the Desert: Pharaoh's Folly. Requirements include:

  • Slayer level 87
  • Completion of Beneath Scabaras' Sands
  • Progress through Phite Club's Do No Evil objectives
  • Construction of specific Fort Forinthry structures

Only after meeting these prerequisites can players join Leela outside Menaphos' gates to attempt salvaging the crumbling city. Qualified adventurers can begin their journey by downloading RuneScape from the Google Play Store.
