RuneScape updates today with an overhaul to the Barbarian Assault minigame. A whole raft of changes have been implemented, not least the addition of new and improved rewards!

In addition, new Agility benefits have been added for the Fishing, Hunter and Thieving skills. Adventurers with high Agility levels may now find themselves able to catch more fish, increase the amount of loot from a successful pickpocket or even catch butterflies in the palms of their hands!
