Summer Sweep-Up 2025

The Summer Sweep-Up is a project that improved and rebalanced certain parts of the game throughout the summer of 2025. Originally announced at RuneFest 2025, the Summer Sweep-Up is similar to Project Rebalance, which was a project that similarly rebalanced various parts of the game throughout 2024. Compared to Project Rebalance, the Summer Sweep-Up has a smaller scope and is not intended to take as much time to implement.

As outlined in the RuneFest 2025 announcement, the Summer Sweep-Up is focused combat adjustments, loot table changes, and Slayer improvements.

A second Summer Sweep-Up is currently ongoing throughout the summer of 2026.
