Deadman Mode
Deadman Mode is OSRS at its most intense. A PvP-focused seasonal mode where death means losing your items and XP. Deadman: Annihilation ran January-February 2026 and future seasons are expected.
Key Rules
- PvP is enabled everywhere except safe zones
- Death loses most items + XP in unprotected skills
- Boosted XP rates (usually 5-10x)
- Separate economy from main game

Survival Tips
