Kudos in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) are achievement points earned through various activities in the Varrock Museum. These points unlock new content, grant experience, and give access to important locations. To earn Kudos and buy RuneScape gold is essential for progressing in quests and unlocking mid- to late-game features, especially for content such as Bone Voyage and Fossil Island.

Below is a comprehensive guide on how to get all 235 possible Kudos in OSRS.

1. Historian Minas - Up to 80 Kudos

Deliver each relic to Curator Haig Halen on the museum's first floor for 1 Kudos each, for a total of 5 Kudos.

Can You Spend Kudos?

No - Kudos are not OSRS Gold. Instead, they act as milestone markers that unlock access to certain quests, areas, and experience rewards.

XP Rewards for Kudos Milestones:

·51+ Kudos: 1,000 Mining XP

·101+ Kudos: 2,500 Crafting XP and 3,500 Mining XP

·151+ Kudos: 4,000 XP in Crafting, Hunter, Prayer, Slayer, and Smithing

These unlock automatically when reaching the corresponding thresholds.

Final Tips

·Completing quests early makes gaining Kudos from Historian Minas more efficient.

·Fossil Displays take time - prioritize them after unlocking Fossil Island.

·The Natural History Quiz is quick and perfect for low-level players.

·Be sure to complete Dig Site, Bone Voyage, and Below Ice Mountain to access the full Kudos pool.

Kudos aren't flashy, but they're essential for unlocking Fossil Island, Ancient Knowledge, and some of the best mid-game content in OSRS. Earning all 235 Kudos is a badge of honor-and a ticket to some of the game's most interesting mechanics.
