Runescape Corporeal Beast
10/17/2014
It is finally here. After months of anticipation and hype... Grab your spears and get ready to die repeatedly on the quest for sigils, the Corporeal Beast is here!
The Corporeal Beast, otherwise known as Corp, is a fierce level 785 monster that is sure to give you a hard time. When killing Corp, all non-spear weapons have 50% reduced damage and the damage of the ruby bolt (e) special is capped at 100.
Corp can be found in a cave just east of the Graveyard of Shadows in 21 wilderness. A teleport has been added to the games necklace that allows you to teleport straight to the Corporeal Beast's lair, it'd be worth having one spare for when you inevitably die and have to run back to grab your stuff. In the room where the Corporeal Beast is found you will have 1 minute to return to your items before they become visible to other players.

Please note that the death mechanic has not been changed when a player dies in PvP combat.
This change will help prevent players losing their items if any network issues crop up. These changes will be reverted once we are confident that any potential issues have passed.
