Boss Bounty

A Boss Bounty is an event hosted by staff. Boss Bounties were added in the September 2025 update. A valuable item is put up as a bounty on a monster, a raid or player kills in Edgeville, with a set drop rate such as 1 in 1,000. Every kill rolls once at that rate, and the first player to hit the roll wins the item.

For example, a bounty of an Elysian spirit shield on green dragons at 1 in 1,000 gives every green dragon kill a 1 in 1,000 chance to win the shield.

How a bounty works

  • The host picks the target, the reward and the drop rate. The rate can be as rare as 1 in 1,000,000.
  • The reward must be a tradeable item worth at least 1,000,000 PK points.
  • When a bounty starts, everyone online gets a message with the target, the rate and the reward.
  • Each kill of the target rolls once at the bounty's rate. When a kill gives drops to several players, such as a world boss that rewards everyone who fought it, each of them rolls.
  • The first player to win is announced to everyone, together with the total number of kills during the event. The bounty then ends.
  • The reward is added straight to the winner's bank.
  • There is no time limit. A bounty stays up until someone wins it, and several bounties can run at the same time.

What counts as a kill

Bounty on What rolls
A monster or boss Every kill of that monster. Some bounties cover a whole group:
  • every kind of revenant;
  • all three Battle mages;
  • the three Third Age monsters;
  • a monster together with its Divine version, so Divine Callisto kills count for a Callisto bounty.
  • the King Black Dragon together with the King Divine Dragon;
  • all three Roat Pkz Warriors at ::dzone (the knight, the saint and the archer).
Chambers of Xeric or Theatre of Blood Each player in the raid rolls once when the raid is completed.
Edgeville PvP Every player kill in the level 1 to 7 Wilderness north of Edgeville, when both players are inside that area. After each kill you are told the number you rolled and the number you needed.

Checking the active bounties

  • Type ::bossbounty (also ::bossbounties, ::pvpbounty or ::edgebounty) to list every active bounty with its rate, its reward and the number of kills so far.
  • Examine a monster to see whether it has a bounty on it. The message shows the rate, the reward, the kills so far and the host.
  • While bounties are running, the global broadcast shows the most valuable monster bounty and the most valuable Edgeville bounty. After a win, it shows the winner for 2 minutes.

Schedule

Boss Bounties have no fixed schedule. Staff start them at any time, and each one runs until it is won.
