Demonic Ruins

The Demonic Ruins is a levelled temple that is located in the level 44-48 Wilderness. Free-to-play and pay-to-play players can access these ruins.

Before the Bounty Hunter and Clan Wars updates, these ruins used to be frequented for clan wars as they are a deep wilderness multicombat zone.

This area is also known as the "Greater Demon Zone" or in short form "GDZ" as they are surrounded by Greater Demons. It can be extremely dangerous, as the demons hit frequently, even through a good defence (not to mention the possibility of being attacked by Revenants).

Mages and rangers, however, can attack the Greater demons from safespots in the ruins. All fighters can restock on food in the cage/harpoon fishing spot if necessary as well. The Demonic Ruins are also a respawn point for Blood runes and Burnt bones. Additionally, an Ancient Magicks spell can teleport you there. As of 16 June 2009, this area rendered semi-obsolete as players can kill Greater demons in the Wilderness Volcano. If that area is too crowded, players may come here for an alternate location, and be more wary of the passing dangers of the revenants.

Revenants may come from the east, and spawns from west. The revenants who come from the east are:


 * Revenant hobgoblin
 * Revenant werewolf (Common)
 * Revenant ork (Rarely)
 * Revenant knight

The spawns from the west includes:


 * Revenant vampire (Common)
 * Revenant ork
 * Revenant knight
 * Revenant hobgoblin (Rarely)

It is advised to check on the east every 10 minutes to see if a Revenant is coming. There are four demons that lurk around. If you see a fifth dot, it can either be William or a Revenant. If you see a yellow dot in the middle, it is definitely a Revenant.

Trivia

 * The Ancient Magicks teleportation spell, Annakarl Teleport takes players to this area. This indicates that these ruins are those of Annakarl.
 * The Demonic Ruins can be found in the Free-for-all arena of Clan Wars. However, there is no sign of the demons except for a large skeleton. This is strange because demons turn to Ashes when they die.
 * During the RuneScape 2 beta, there was a blood rune spawn in the ruins which was accessible to both members and non-members.
 * The west part of the ruins looks like a cross on the map.
