I remember when I first played through While Guthix Sleeps and hearing this song for the first time. Hearing the login music sneak it's way into this song blew my mind at the time and I listed to this on repeat for a little while. Good memories. I think my favorite track from RuneScape, just behind Sea Shanty 2 of course.
5 years ago I commented stating how it needs to be brought back 10th of July 2024, it's here. I have waited 5 long years for it's return, and I'm so happy it's coming back. A few people might call it rose tinted glasses. Fuck no. This quest is still probably the foundation for how they wrote the GM's of OSRS. From the worst to the best. And I'm so happy it's back.
@@cyruskhalvati that would require an entire new sound engine unfortunately, the hdos client will likely have the whole quest in its hd glory with the music packaging in not long after release
great quest, great boss fight, epic story, brilliant rewards The only quests that ever topped it was probably the zaros themed quests temple of sentisten and desert treasure
I don't care what anyone says, we need to bring WGS back to OSRS. Even if the new plot line is different in the sequel quests. I miss this quest so much.
the best part is that all they would need to do is cut out the summoning portion, and add the quests defender of varrock and path of glouphrie (both quests which could work just fine with current osrs lore) then we could get it
There isn't really a "new plot line" - RuneScape's history is the same! Its just that in the Old School timeline, we discover a Different route, as well!
@@scouthammer5370 well there's a number of things they intend to change. mod ash said he would be overseeing the witchaven mother mallum questline because he wasn't happy with how it played out in rs2/rs3 i do hope we get more god lore, i think that was definitely some of the most interesting stuff. also azzanadra was a cool ass character and i hope he stays the same. armadyl as well
Anyone else mesmerised by those 'moans' in the background - like something sinister, infernal, indomitable crying out in terror and anger, eager to be released to spread chaos in the world. Something even Gods would be afraid of.
I remember playing While Guthix Sleeps for the first time. This track gave me chills. And going back to fight Tormented Demons after the quest, more chills!
I was literally tingling when this music came up during While Guthix Sleeps! This is easily the best music ever to grace my ears for an MMO, also featured in one of the best quests I've ever played in an MMO... This song alone was the main reason I very deliberally looked for (probably illegal at the time) downloads of the original RS soundtrack way back in time... Well, this and Sea Shanty 2, at least
Thumbs up on this whole list so far. hahaha... so far everything you've picked has been either a fave of mine or actually set to my top-10 ingame back in the day... This was a good quest... memories... :)
I was like, "Where the hell have I heard this before? I haven't done WGS, and I don't know anybody who has." Then I remembered it was in a RuneScape trailer in 2009 or 2010.
Joulupukkiman Behind FotG and WW? wat. RotM was good but not nearly as good in my opinion. WGS was amazing. Unfortunately the guy behind this and the myreque series isn't working as Jagex anymore.
Joulupukkiman Somewat i am blind to these tiny details that caused the roof to cave in here but i am alright with that, 8 Fingers are SIN a library devoid of its teachers
That's it. 8 years of playing and i still haven't done this quest. Whenever I loose motivation from now on to get the requirements, I will come back the this music. I will do this quest even if it's the last thing I do on RuneScape!!!
Was looking around to see what the most popular song was on Runescape. This is what I found, and I see why! It rivals that of SoundTeMP's RO music! Finally!
This theme is just absolutely fucking ridiculous. It just won't leave your head, ever. I wonder who is the mastermind behind this soundtrack. I mean this theme is so good it puts some of the boss and final boss songs in Final Fantasy series to absolutely shame.
I'm not sure if it's part of the song, but I checked my Skype like 3 times during it because I kept hearing something like it very quietly in the background.
No, this is the theme of the Balance Elemental in the Temple of Guthix. You unlock this song as you fight him, and it also plays automatically when you fight Tormented Demons too.
Lol yeah was an awesome quest...good strory, good challenges. Looking forward to the next masterquest that follows it. Might bring me back to the game lol.
@SwaHeart Same goes for the mahjarat we know as Zamorak, without the staff he would have never bested Zaros. Also, you do remember that Lucien had his powers amplified by the stone of Jas AND just went through the restoration ritual.
This song completely matches the end of gielnor. lucien takes control, kills hazelmere, disinegrates 3 of the most powerful heroes at once. I want to tear that bastard apart. Although i can't help but admit, he is a good character. I love how runescape isn't just a game. it has a story.
i love this track i agree with lastride29 , its awesome!! i hadd to come to find the song on utube after i watched the trailer!! .... ive been playing rs since rs classic , and i havent been on rs for about 1 yr , and im coming back on!
It's cool at 2:20 to 2:30 because it's like you hear the calming sound kind of, then it like, pauses for a while, then the loud epic thing comes after, lol I dunno how to explain.
3. The only thing Viggora's statement really implies is that the staff is incredibly powerful and that being impaled by a sharp object tends to kill stuff. 4. My point about the power transfer was that even if Zaros was impaled with the "all-killing end" (which we don't know), it could have been Zamorak that had been drained, maybe even killed, making the "all-killing end" of the staff seem quite... Far-fatched.
@bertstyle1 Wasn't a servant of Zaros. He infact helped Zamorak overthrow Zaros in his fight to be a god. Lucien had the same exact plan, until he was killed...
@mindmonkey00 Yes Ive read the dev diary too, they do both, individual and team, but a track wouldn't nake it into RS without the whole team giving input and agreeing on the final result.
Do you know what, Supportmage? I've missed you, it's been a long time, and your funeral was such a lovely event. Oh well, back to the battle. I'm enjoying it, aren't you?

This the best quest Runescape has EVER made. You don’t know what you’re talking about if you say otherwise.
Idk, One Small Favour is at least a contender for the #1 spot
You clearly haven't played any of the newer quests lol. Children of Mah is incredible.
Truth
I agree that WGS is on top forever, but other quests are reasonable contenders.
I agree, but I think Underground Pass is unironically the best.
I CANNOT WAIT TO HEAR THIS REMIXED IN OSRS! WGS IS GETTING AN OSRS RETELLING!!!
I was gonna quit until Sailing came out... But looks like Jamgee got me again

Yeah, I think they mentioned at some point how many new OSRS quests are heavily inspired by WGS.
I love this XD it happened
regular td loot table is trash tho
This just makes me think of the many times at Tormented Demons. Funny how you get to them from Lumbridge. Where everything started.
While Guthix Sleeps was simply magical
I really hope, and expect this banger to be added in the remake in OSRS!
I hope they just add this directly in the way it is here (rs hd) instead of the rs2 style of music thats normal in osrs todayz
@@cyruskhalvati that would require an entire new sound engine unfortunately, the hdos client will likely have the whole quest in its hd glory with the music packaging in not long after release
@@kirbogames9664 heres to hoping m8. Id love to hear this song the way it is here in game.

Well they kinda did that with MMII. The finale is terrible tho compared to WGS. Least the other grandmasters they released were good
@@nielsniels5008 Lord of Vampyrium was on par with WGS and was released in 2015

Wish they’d make while guthix sleeps or have a similar quest in old school
dragon slayer 2
Monkey Madness II was the counterpart.
Guess its your lucky day
RuneScape soundtracks are seriously underrated
Ah zat High-school Cramp.
ahhh! the sound of 2009-2011 runescape times
I was literally tingling when this music came up during While Guthix Sleeps! This is easily the best music ever to grace my ears for an MMO, also featured in one of the best quests I've ever played in an MMO...
This song alone was the main reason I very deliberally looked for (probably illegal at the time) downloads of the original RS soundtrack way back in time... Well, this and Sea Shanty 2, at least
This quest is still my favorite, as the longest quest and the revealing of all the secrets.
I was headbanging to this!!!!!!
one of the best songs i've ever heard!!!!!!
first time i saw a tormented demon ! god chills went down my spine
Thumbs up on this whole list so far. hahaha... so far everything you've picked has been either a fave of mine or actually set to my top-10 ingame back in the day... This was a good quest... memories... :)

Playing this song while doing the depressing morytania quests really makes them more exciting!
i use this song as my "what is your favorite music style/artist/band?" Jagex you complte my life!
wow the runescape songs are getting awesomer , jagex shud make more of these , rly like it :)
omfg jagex!!! i didnt think you was capable of this type of music!! too nice!!
2018 still love it still
When i heard this i was like, "WTF? This is runescape?". Now im totally addicted and cant stop...
all of the tunes unlocked during WGS were absolutely amazing.
I was like, "Where the hell have I heard this before? I haven't done WGS, and I don't know anybody who has." Then I remembered it was in a RuneScape trailer in 2009 or 2010.
This Quest is legendary. One of the very best, only behind World Wakes, Fate of the Gods and Ritual of the Mahjarrat.
Joulupukkiman Behind FotG and WW? wat. RotM was good but not nearly as good in my opinion. WGS was amazing. Unfortunately the guy behind this and the myreque series isn't working as Jagex anymore.
Joulupukkiman while guthix sleeps was allot better than world wakes and fate of the gods, those quest were allot more fucking easier.
Joulupukkiman Somewat i am blind to these tiny details that caused the roof to cave in here but i am alright with that, 8 Fingers are SIN a library devoid of its teachers
For the quest I give 5 stars, for the soundtrack 10. No really, it's that great.
Actually you've perfectly summed up the Mahjarrat quest series! :D
This is my favourite rs song, pretty much the only one I listen to in game. Unlocked during the while guthix sleeps fight.
one of the best rs soundtracks
My favorite part is when everything drops out except for percussion at 2:00
Wow! This is good!
AthosAmo Was it good for you though?
Very epic theme :)
This soundtrack can be unlock by doing While Guthix Sleeps. Easy quest but long quest took me almost 2 hrs to do
Beginnings and endings. *They remixed this track for the final race to the stone.*
Can you blame them?
hell no, it's unbelievable.
That's it. 8 years of playing and i still haven't done this quest. Whenever I loose motivation from now on to get the requirements, I will come back the this music. I will do this quest even if it's the last thing I do on RuneScape!!!
me too
This is one of the best songs in the game!
Loved While Guthix Sleeps, This song is definitely the best on RS.
This makes me cry and feel epic at the same time.
Was looking around to see what the most popular song was on Runescape. This is what I found, and I see why! It rivals that of SoundTeMP's RO music! Finally!
They have to keep this soundtrack in OSRS
Wish granted, new trailer with this soundtrack in use, it's coming back
i swear to Guthix and Jas this must be the Most awesome runescape soundtrack ive ever heard in the RUneScape Universe
Anyone here after watching the WGS trailer?
YES Absolutely cherish this soundtrack and very excited for WGS on July 10th!
GOT TO BE THE BEST SOUNDTRACK EVER!!!
@sutasman actually yes they do they even mentioned that in a developer diary that all they work in seperate rooms creating different soundtracks.
I love in the quest While Guthix Sleeps.. how Balance Elemntal talks with you as he knows you fo REALY long i hope we will w´find this out soon!
While Guthix Sleeps FTW
and the quest have alot of epic soundtracks well done jagex..
epic track and 5/5*
Such a great quest and my 2nd Grandmaster quest. Completed not long after Nomad's Requeim
@ariplayer15 It was a combonation of 2 debates: one about the levels of gods in runescape, and one about recurring themes in religions.
@AimlessDorks I didn't notice that until you pointed that out. That is cool!
I really can't wait to unlock this track. It's so bouncy and dark and mysterious.
This theme is just absolutely fucking ridiculous. It just won't leave your head, ever. I wonder who is the mastermind behind this soundtrack. I mean this theme is so good it puts some of the boss and final boss songs in Final Fantasy series to absolutely shame.
one of the most impiring incentives to do While Guthix Sleeps was this song. JAGEX now knows how to make EPIC MIDIs :)
Such a hint of nostalgia.
Ahhh, music to my ears.
Absolute banger.
best runescape track ive heard so far
agree, I used to listen so much to it years ago when I played runescape :p
i want to redo the quest just because it has epic music. epic story line. epic fights and loads of puzzles all together one of the best quests ever
I'm not sure if it's part of the song, but I checked my Skype like 3 times during it because I kept hearing something like it very quietly in the background.
Epic theme for fighting tormented demons ^^ got lump today and was looking for the song :D
No, this is the theme of the Balance Elemental in the Temple of Guthix. You unlock this song as you fight him, and it also plays automatically when you fight Tormented Demons too.
@robodroid00 Exactly what it sounds like. Jagex released a trailer for RS, and this was used as the backing music.
this has 2 be 1 of the best songs i've heard
Heard this song on muclesonkeys' agility guide video, it's amazing!

Lol yeah was an awesome quest...good strory, good challenges. Looking forward to the next masterquest that follows it. Might bring me back to the game lol.
Hell yeah! This song gives me butterflies. This is a *true* RuneScape song. It even beats Harmony and coming from me that's saying a lot!
man runescape song are so epic when i start it i get dazed off and the songs end thenks adam bond for the epicest music on earth
sounds good for a news program. can be a background while the news clips are playing.
@SwaHeart Same goes for the mahjarat we know as Zamorak, without the staff he would have never bested Zaros.
Also, you do remember that Lucien had his powers amplified by the stone of Jas AND just went through the restoration ritual.
Best sountrack in runescape
such an inspiring track
This song completely matches the end of gielnor. lucien takes control, kills hazelmere, disinegrates 3 of the most powerful heroes at once. I want to tear that bastard apart. Although i can't help but admit, he is a good character. I love how runescape isn't just a game. it has a story.

This song is unlocked during the While Guthix Sleeps quest.I checked the hint while playing RS.
i love this track i agree with lastride29 , its awesome!! i hadd to come to find the song on utube after i watched the trailer!! .... ive been playing rs since rs classic , and i havent been on rs for about 1 yr , and im coming back on!
thx and this song was used in the video on the runescape web site
best song
Best. Runescape Sound track, eva!
Guthix temple from While Guthix Sleeps - Area where Stone of Jas and Tormented Demons are.
I would pay jagex serious money to hear this song with an actual live orchestra.
It's cool at 2:20 to 2:30 because it's like you hear the calming sound kind of, then it like, pauses for a while, then the loud epic thing comes after, lol I dunno how to explain.
people should give credit to Adam B. he was the guy who made EVERY single sountrack in wgs and most of chosen commander as well as many others.
Reminds me of me and Nomad fighting on the field of battle!
3. The only thing Viggora's statement really implies is that the staff is incredibly powerful and that being impaled by a sharp object tends to kill stuff.
4. My point about the power transfer was that even if Zaros was impaled with the "all-killing end" (which we don't know), it could have been Zamorak that had been drained, maybe even killed, making the "all-killing end" of the staff seem quite... Far-fatched.
Kal'ger's theme... Nex's theme... Nomad's theme... fuck them all, this is the most epic theme that ever existed!
My favourite song so far! :D
@bertstyle1 Wasn't a servant of Zaros. He infact helped Zamorak overthrow Zaros in his fight to be a god. Lucien had the same exact plan, until he was killed...
@mindmonkey00 Yes Ive read the dev diary too, they do both, individual and team, but a track wouldn't nake it into RS without the whole team giving input and agreeing on the final result.
any body else hearing parts from scape main?
Awesome song
shit hits harder than the Stone of Jas
Do you know what, Supportmage? I've missed you, it's been a long time, and your funeral was such a lovely event. Oh well, back to the battle. I'm enjoying it, aren't you?
@robodroid00 its also played in the rs trailer
@Leafshinoby not to mention rs is one of the few mmos that is really story driven and its quests are very real unlike other mmorpgs lol
this song was used in total madness, around episode 24
Thanks bro.
I wish all songs were like this.
I WAS HEADBANGING TO THIS!!!!
EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!
