One of RuneScape gold RuneScape's earliest quests, Shield of Arrav, was ahead of its time. It required two players to team up in real-time, each joining opposing gangs, to recover the two halves of a legendary shield.

Finding a partner was often harder than the quest itself. Whether you joined the Phoenix Gang or the Black Arm Gang, there was always a shortage of players on the opposite side. But once you finally synced up and completed it together, the feeling was unforgettable.

It was an early example of cheap Runescape gold RuneScape's community-first design philosophy—one that emphasized cooperation, communication, and shared experience.
