The Trailblazer Reloaded League was the fourth league in Old School RuneScape. Development of the league began in August of 2023. The league was announced during the Summer Summit 2023 and was released on 15 November 2023.[1] The league ended on 10 January 2024.[2]

It was a rerun of the Trailblazer League, with one of the main differences being the addition of the Great Kourend and Kebos Lowlands as a new region.

Overview

Trailblazer Reloaded was a temporary gamemode with a unique ruleset that fundamentally changed the gameplay experience. Players began with most regions of the game locked, but they were able to unlock new ones by completing tasks and accumulating points. At certain point thresholds, players were able to select powerful relics that affected skilling, combat, or provided extra utility. The league was based on the original Trailblazer League with many changes to the task list, relics, and the inclusion of new content from updates since 2020.

Changes from Trailblazer League

Rules

Area restrictions

The Trailblazer Reloaded area interface.

Players will begin their journey with only the regions of Misthalin and Karamja available. Further areas can be unlocked by completing a certain amount of tasks. A maximum of three new regions can be unlocked.

Player restrictions

All players will be an Ironman and come with the same restrictions, including not being able to trade with other players. To accommodate the increased number of Iron players, shops will restock after every transaction.

Players will start with a 5x accelerated experience rate, and begin with level 3 Herblore, 5 Runecraft, and level 10 Agility to enable Herblore training, Runecraft training, and the use of the Draynor Village Rooftop Course. The XP multiplier increases further at specific relic tiers. Players will also be able to claim a free dramen staff from The Sage in the Lumbridge Courtyard to access Zanaris.

Some quests or diary tasks will be automatically unlocked if they require access to inaccessible areas, including Druidic Ritual and Lost City.

Tasks

Tasks in the Trailblazer Reloaded League allow players to earn League Points and unlock relics and other rewards. Tasks will span five different difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, Elite, and Master. Some tasks will be area specific while others are more general and can be completed in any region. Every area will have roughly the same number of obtainable points from tasks.

Examples of area specific tasks:

Trailblazer task complete
The jingle that plays upon completing a task.

Relics

Template:/Relics

Boosted drops

Items from certain sources are given a boosted drop rate in Trailblazer Reloaded League. The drop rate multiplier increases as more relics are unlocked: the items listed below become 2x as common when the starting first tier relic is chosen; then become 3x as common when unlocking a fourth tier relic; proceeding to 4x as common at sixth tier; and finally 5x as common at the final, eighth tier.

Boosted minigame points

Some minigames have their reward points boosted in Trailblazer Reloaded League. The boost multiplier increases as more relics are unlocked, going from 3x once the tier 2 relic is chosen, to 5x at tier 5, and finally to 8x at tier 7. The following are affected by this buff:

Rewards

In addition to the league-to-league rewards, players can unlock several rewards for use in the main game. Several rewards have been polled and all proposed rewards have passed.[4]
