Since its early access shadow-drop, RuneScape: Dragonwilds has been captivating players with its expansive world and challenging encounters. On May 2, Jagex shared the patch notes for the upcoming 0.7.3 update on Steam, which includes significant fixes and new features. One of the most anticipated changes is the fix for Velgar’s meteor attacks.

Velgar, the fiercest dragon in the Fellhollow region, has been a formidable foe, with his meteor attacks previously penetrating the roofs of player bases. This left players vulnerable with no safe haven. The developers have acknowledged this issue and are set to resolve it in the upcoming patch, ensuring that "meteors raining down from the Scaly Scourge should be less of a problem now."

Another key feature in the 0.7.3 update is the introduction of Cloud Saves. This fan-requested addition will allow players to access their save files across different devices without the need for local backups. This feature is set to enhance the flexibility and convenience of gameplay, catering to the community's needs.
