Relic combinations and Valentine's event start this week

02/10/2025 - This week RuneScape brings some exciting new features, including the ability to flexibly change relic combinations and a special Valentine's Day event. The introduction of battle mastery achievements is also imminent. Here are the most important details about the latest update.
With the introduction of relic combinations, players can now save up to four different presets for their relic powers and change them flexibly. This innovation makes it easier to adapt to different game situations without having to change the powers manually each time. Two combinations are available once the introduction is complete. A third can be purchased for 80,000 Chronetes in the Archaeology Guild, while the fourth is unlocked with the Guildmaster skill.
Switching between combinations is also more cost-efficient: Chronet costs for active relic powers are reduced by 20%, further improving power management.
Preparation for the battle mastery achievements
On February 17, the new combat mastery achievement system will be launched. Players can already complete certain achievements to be optimally prepared. A full list of achievements has been published so that ambitious fighters can gain an early advantage.
Further game improvements and bug fixes
The update also brings a number of improvements and bug fixes. These include adjustments to resources such as Orikalkit and Drakolith rocks, a revision of the big game hunting starting positions and corrections to special attack animations for bows. Minor bugs, such as incorrect XP displays or unintentional game crashes due to frog repellent, have also been fixed.
Valentine's Day event: love letters and heart-shaped lumps
From February 13 to 17, a time-limited event will be running in which love letters can be collected and exchanged for special rewards. These letters can be earned during daily activities and redeemed with either light or dark romantics. Possible rewards are:
- 20% XP boost for five minutes
- 25% bonus XP burn boost
- 250 heart shards
In addition, players can unlock new titles with different color variants by collecting letters. If you don't want to redeem your letters, you can tear them up to give yourself and nearby players a small XP boost.
Treasure hunter calendar: gifts from the heart
The "Gifts from the Heart" treasure hunter campaign is running in parallel to the Valentine's Day event. This offers new cosmetic items, including elegant outfits, special auras and exclusive pets. Players can use keys to unlock rewards and progress along the prize path.
