Why is Anti poison made using Harralander?

[Nyaria]

I just spent a buncha time in game gathering Marentill herbs to start making anti-poisons for the stupid poison zone.

only to get to the cauldron to find out Harrander is apparently the herb needed for anti poisons.

Why? Marrentill was the herb used to make Anti poison potions.

Anti Poison Potions are one of the earliest potions you can be able to make in Runescape.

Like-- I genuinely do not understand how they got this wrong, unless they actively have people who have never played runescape working on this game.

This has been my thought for my entire play time so far. It feels like they contracted outside devs with UE5 experience, gave them some basic Runescape info, and figured they would add the rest later.

I'm genuinely baffled by the current review score.

Probably because people who have never played Runescape and like survival games are playing and enjoying it.

And the fact Harrander is pretty scarce and is used for healing AND antipoison makes it even more annoying

This.

Its a good entry to the survival genre. The Runescape ascetic is nice and adds game recognition with a solid and respectable IP. But RS3/OSRS players expecting to find RS4 here will be disappointed. Although tbh, with the way this first island quest works. You can easily see maps serving as quest lines in the future.

Maybe we could explore some more Runescape stories as maps get released!
