Rare Items

Holiday Rares are items that were dropped on holidays to give the RuneScape
players a bit of a reward for playing. Jagex made some of the later holiday
items untradeable due to the fact that players were collecting lots of
them, and selling them to make lots of cash fast. After many players
complained to Jagex about not being able to get ahold of these drops. Jagex also
has extended recent holiday drop periods to two weeks. Below is a list of
the holiday items that have been dropped in the past and a bit of
information about each.

There are few items that do not fit into the above categories, but are still considered rare. Most of these items were discontinued or changed, so only a small amount remain in the game. The only way to obtain them is to pay high prices to other players, and once they are gone, they are gone forever.

Disk of returning | Players were originally punished for breaking the rules by being sent to an area known as the Black Hole until their punishment expired. Jagex created a version of the Black Hole for normal players to visit and the Disk of returning could be used get back out. The Black Hole was eventually removed in December 2001, however the Disk of returning was left in the game. As few people possessed a Disk when the hole was removed and many of those will likely have been lost over the years, this item is extremely rare. |

Half full wine jug | Jugs of wine were originally drunk in two doses and a Half full wine jug was the result of drinking one dose.
