Soul Wars
Team combat for imbues and steady combat XP
A team minigame on the Isle of Souls where two sides fight over an obelisk and graveyards to weaken the enemy Avatar. You earn Zeal Tokens whether you win or lose, and spend them on imbues, XP and the Soul cape. It's a popular, low-stakes way to imbue rings and the Slayer helmet without stepping into the Wilderness.

Why do Soul Wars?
- Imbue rings and the Slayer helmet without risking anything in the Nightmare Zone or Wilderness.
- The Soul cape is a solid budget offensive cape once you bank enough Zeal.
- Zeal converts into combat XP at a fixed rate, so games are never wasted even on a loss.
How it works
Two teams gather soul fragments from monsters and offer them at the Soul Obelisk to strip the enemy Avatar's damage reduction, while burying bones at graveyards to buff their own. Control the obelisk and graveyard for full contribution. Games last up to 15 minutes and you bank Zeal Tokens based on activity, win or lose.

Tips & common mistakes
- Contribute at the obelisk and graveyard rather than only PKing — that's where the Zeal comes from.
- Play in a populated world so games actually pop and stay balanced.
- Bank Zeal toward imbues first; the Soul cape and cosmetics can wait.
