Despite being someone who had never touched RuneScape outside of a slightly dodgy interaction in the game as a child, I somehow found myself right in the middle of RuneFest back in March. It is slightly strange infiltrating a convention for a community you've absolutely no stake in, but if Jagex's master plan was to get me to dabble in its MMO, it worked: I came home from the convention, and downloaded Old School RuneScape on my phone and PC.
This was a move that greatly pleased both my partner and a friend of mine who outed himself as a RuneScape enjoyer. One of the first things both of them said to me was that, if I wanted to farm my combat levels, the Stronghold of Security was the hip and happening place to be.
