Basilisk Knight Improvements

Last week we released the latest instalment in the Fremennik questline: The Fremennik Exiles! If you haven't completed the quest yet, you can find the requirements and more information in last week's game update post.

Many of you raised concerns that the basilisk knights were both too easy to kill for a monster that drops an upgrade item for creating a best in slot helmet, and not very entertaining to fight. In response, we're increasing their stats and adding an extra mechanic: a special attack which entombs the player in stone. This can be dodged by moving out of the projectile's way or escaped by trying to move while entombed. The superior versions also have this attack. Additionally, we have removed the safespot outside the room.

Fremennik Exiles Tweaks

We've also made the following changes based on feedback from the quest:
  • Basilisk knights now appear in skill guides.
  • Superior basilisk knights now take as long to despawn as other creatures if their target moves out of their area.
  • The Fremennik Shield crafted on Neitiznot from arctic pine wood and rope has been renamed. This is to avoid confusion with the older Fremennik Shield which is used during the quest.
  • The creation of Lunar Glass during The Fremennik Exiles can now use astral runes from your rune pouch.
  • Two grammatical errors in quest dialogue were corrected.
