Old School RuneScape’s Leagues VI: Demonic Pacts is approaching, and before launch, the real game is already underway: planning your path.
In this episode of RSBANDBUpdate!, we step through our early theorycrafting for Leagues VI, focusing on how regions, relics, and pact choices interact to shape your run. Unlike previous leagues, these decisions carry more weight, with region locking, deeper combat trees, and fewer “catch-all” solutions forcing players to think carefully about how everything fits together.
We discuss:
- How region selection changes your available training methods and progression paths
- Why relic synergy matters more than ever and where overlaps can create inefficiencies
- The importance of having “solves” for skills, gold, and mobility
- Early planning strategies to avoid getting locked out of key content
- Demonic Pacts and Combat
Whether you’re coming from RS3 or are an experienced OSRS player, this episode focuses on the central question: what changes for your run based on the choices you make early?
