Leagues IV: Trailblazer Reloaded
The agonising wait is over! Today the Leagues game mode makes its triumphant return with the launch of Leagues IV: Trailblazer Reloaded.
In this reimagining of our most popular League ever, you’ll return to the area-locking mayhem of Leagues II: Trailblazer. With a few tweaks to Relics and tasks, and access to all the content we’ve added since the original League, this is a truly unique experience – and we can’t wait for you to play it!
We’ve been drip-feeding teasers and reveals over the last two weeks, as well as answering some of your most frequently asked questions. See ‘em all on the blog, where you’ll also learn everything you need to know about Leagues.
If reading isn’t really your scene, we have a special message from our famous content creators, who want YOU to know which areas they like the look of.

If you’ve been paying close attention to the reveals, you’ll know your old strategies from the original Trailblazer are of no use here – so you’ve got a lot of theorycrafting to do! Luckily, Mod Husky’s Game Jam project means we have the technology to let you browse all the available tasks and plan your next steps no matter what you’re up to. Take a look by clicking here!
Leagues IV will run from now until January 10th – and we’re here to fill you in on everything you need to know.

Fremennik enjoyers will be pleased to hear that Blast Furnace automation has been enabled on all Leagues Worlds – so there are no specific ones for Blast Furnace.
When you arrive in Gielinor you’ll find yourself as a brand-new Iron player in Lumbridge, with the Misthalin and Karamja regions available to explore. You’ll have all the usual starting stats plus enough levels in Herblore, Agility and Runecraft to let you start training. With free Dramen Staff in hand, you’re ready to start taking on tasks, choosing your Relics, and unlocking new regions!
You’ll have boosted XP rates throughout the League, so you’ll soon catch up to your favourite activities.
If you’re undecided about which area to unlock first, check out this handy infographic from the endlessly talented GentleTractor!

Tasks
To unlock regions and gain more Relics, you’ll need League Points – and to get League Points, you’ll need to complete some tasks. These fun challenges are scattered relatively evenly across all available areas – so feel free to pick your favourites!
We’ve teamed up with the OSRS Wiki team to bring you the entire task list (https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Trailblazer_Reloaded_League/Tasks) on one incredibly useful page. This makes it easy to plan your route and choose your Relics to suit your favourite tasks – remember, strategy is key!
Relics
Choosing a Tier 1 Relic is the first decision you’ll need to make. These powerful items bestow all kinds of helpful buffs and boons – but choose wisely, because they’re permanent!
To help you out, here’s a rundown of the Tier 1 Relics:
Endless Harvest
- 2x resources gathered from Fishing, Woodcutting and Mining. Bonus resources provide bonus XP.[/*]
- Resources gathered by this Relic are sent directly to your Bank if there’s space. Otherwise, they are placed in your Inventory.[/*]
- Items that normally can’t be banked will be placed into your Inventory regardless of how much space you have.[/*]
Production Prodigy
- When doing the following activities, all items are processed at once:[list]
- Smelting ores, Smithing bars and making Cannonballs.[/*]
- Fletching logs, stringing Bows and cutting bolt tips.[/*]
- Cleaning herbs and making Potions which don’t have a stackable secondary ingredient.[/*]
- Cooking food and making Jugs of Wine.[/*]
- Crafting leather, uncut gems, glassblowing, jewellery, pottery, Battlestaves and spinning flax or wool.[/*][/*]
Trickster
- You will automatically re-pickpocket your target.[/*]
- Loot from pickpocketing is doubled and noted.[/*]
- Coin pouch limit is multiplied by 3.[/*]
- You’ll be given the Sage’s Greaves, that grant Agility XP that scales with your Agility level while running.[/*]
- Box traps lure creatures faster.[/*]
- Loot from box traps is doubled.[/*]
- Impling jars can’t break.[/*]
- You can burn up to nine logs simultaneously.[/*]
- You can’t fail actions for Thieving, Agility, Hunter and Firemaking.[/*]
Pretty cool, huh? Well, that’s only the first three! You can find information about the other Relics we’ve revealed so far over on the OSRS Wiki – or, you can keep it a surprise and discover the others as you rise through the ranks.
League Firsts
If playing for fun isn't enough, but you're not sure that you'll be able to stick it out and go the distance for maximum points then League Firsts might be for you!

Rewards and Trophies
League Points aren’t just for new areas and Relics - you’ll be able to spend them on some fiery new rewards, too! From the hottest fits to the coveted League banner, from new animations to ornament kits – the Leagues Rewards Shop has it all.
As well as a new range of Trailblazer Reloaded-themed cosmetics, you can also purchase all the rewards you missed from previous Leagues. Likewise, if you have Points left over from previous Leagues, you can still spend them on new rewards!
Here's a sneak-peak at some of the animation overrides on offer this League!
To get your mitts on the goods, just hop back to the main game and speak to the Leagues Tutor in Catherby.
Please note that he’ll need a bit of time to set up his wares – to avoid nasty bugs, we’re not allowing players to purchase items from the Leagues Reward Store, or claim Trophies, until a couple of days after the League launches.
Speaking of Trophies, we’ve made some big changes this year! Our new static point threshold approach to HiScores ensures that you can be certain exactly how many League Points you need to earn each Trophy. Just like previous Leagues, there’s a Trophy for each tier on the HiScores, from basic Bronze all the way up to the coveted Dragon tier.
To make it even easier to see where you stack up, we’ve added the exact Point thresholds to your in-game Leagues menu. Take a peek!
Well, it seems we’ve nothing further to tell you. It’s time for you to gear up, put on your travellin’ boots, and head out into the wild world of Leagues IV: Trailblazer Reloaded. We can’t wait to see where you’ll go! Good luck – and have fun!
