First Fight Caves completion

HCW Deviate completed the TzHaar Fight Caves on launch day. On Hardcore Worlds a death in the caves is a real death, which makes the fire cape the first serious trophy of the mode.

The Fight Caves are on the unsafe list: 63 waves and TzTok-Jad, with one life. The elite Karamja diary’s resurrection is the only safety net, and nobody had it on day one.

On 7 November the Fractured Archive and the Grandmaster combat achievements were still unclaimed on the mode, according to the OSRS Wiki’s world-firsts table.
