Deadman mode is both a permanent and a seasonal quarterly temporary variant of Old School RuneScape, in which a separate server is hosted featuring an open PvP environment, with some exceptions. Players in-game can speak to Nigel in Lumbridge graveyard for information about Deadman mode. Experience gained in Deadman mode will be 5x more than usual (10x during the first six hours of gameplay); however, experience that is gained from quests will not be multiplied. In addition, experience will not be gained in instanced areas (such as the Nightmare Zone and TzHaar Fight Caves).
