The new quest will start as soon as the player teams up with Leela outside Menaphos and joins the resistance. It is worth noting that in order to hop on this new challenge, players need to upgrade Slayer up to level 87, as well as complete Beneath Scabara’s Sands, progress on Phite Club, and get fort buildings from the Fort Forinthry storyline.

Completing Pharaoh’s Folly grants:

  • Thieving and Agility XP boost,
  • The title of Rabble-Rouser,
  • Leela’s Favour, a bracelet offering instant teleports to Menaphos’ districts, the Sophanem Slayer Dungeon, Shifting Tombs, and active Soul Obelisks.

​As of 2023, the RuneScape franchise has generated over $1.5 billion in lifetime revenue. Developed and published by Jagex and released in January 2001, RuneScape was originally a browser game that was replaced by a standalone C++ client in 2016 and is now available on PC, both macOS and Windows, as well as smartphones, Android and iOS. The game has had over 300 million accounts created and was recognized by the Guinness World Records as the largest and most updated free MMORPG.
