The beam of light above the chest will vary for the player depending on the loot obtained: by default, the light is white; if the player obtained an item from the unique drop table, it is purple; if the player obtained a metamorphic dust, it is turquoise; if the player obtained a twisted ancestral colour kit, it is green. If multiple such drops are obtained simultaneously, the light alternates between each appropriate colour.

==Pre-release teaser==
On the 29th of December 2016, an [[Unannounced phenomena]] occurred, in which a chatbox message stated {{RSFont|You feel a disturbance deep below the ground, as if some ancient beast had stirred.|color=Red}} with the ground shaking at the same time.
==Scrapped rewards==
In advance of the raid's release, five Developer's Blogs detailing proposed rewards were released over the course of the latter half of 2016.
Many of the rewards proposed went through several changes before they were scrapped or failed a poll, or passed one.

===Ancient insignias===
Ancient insignias were proposed to be equipped in the ammunition slot, providing combat stats and effects.
They were scrapped in the second rewards blog following "a large amount of feedback from the community".

===Forgotten prayers===
Initially, six prayers were proposed to be unlocked via a single tradeable scroll obtained as a reward. The scroll will prompt players to choose which prayer to learn, after which it would crumble to dust.

In the third rewards blog, the requirements for Rigour and Augury were swapped, and a level 70 Defence requirement was added to both prayers.
In the fourth blog, the Divine Grace, Poison Absorb, and Venom Absorb prayers were scrapped.
===High-tier armour===
The Kodai robes, elder armour, and twisted armours were first proposed in the fourth rewards blog, and was polled in [[Poll:Old School Content Poll 47: Rewards for Raids & Slayer|Old School Content Poll 47: Rewards for Raids & Slayer]], failing the poll by 2.6% of the required votes to pass.
It was repolled in [[Poll:Old School Content Poll 48: Rewards for Raids & Quality of Life|Old School Content Poll 48: Rewards for Raids & Quality of Life]] a month later to emphasise that the set degrades with a 100,000 repair cost for each hour of usage. This failed the poll by 10.2% of the required votes to pass.
In order to assess what changes should be made to the armours to have it pass a poll, a new poll, [[Poll:Old School Raids Armours Survey|Old School Raids Armours Survey]] was made available. After feedback, the final rewards blog proposed adjusted stats, and the final rewards poll, [[Poll:More Raids Rewards|More Raids Rewards]], split each armour set into its own question. All three armour sets failed by around 4%.
====Kodai robes====
First proposed in the first rewards blog, the robes required level 75 Magic & Defence to equip, and were proposed to be "slightly more powerful than Ahrim's robes" and undegradeable.

On the release of the second blog, the requirement to wear them was changed to level 75 Magic & Prayer, and their stats changed, as there were concerns of the price impact on Ahrim's robes.

With the release of the fourth rewards blog alongside elder and twisted armour, the Kodai robes were reworked entirely, again requiring level 75 Magic & Defence to equip, and being given increased bonuses. As a tradeoff, they degrade and become unusable after 10 hours of continuous usage in combat.

After having failed a poll twice, the final rewards blog did not adjust the Kodai robe's stats; rather, it proposed a second set of magic robes, the ancestral robes, which placed emphasis on [[magic damage]]. The ancestral robes passed the final reward poll, while Kodai robes did not.
====Elder armour====
A top-tier set of melee armour requiring level 75 Defence to equip, the set will degrade and become unusable after 10 hours of continuous usage in combat.
The set was proposed to have the following stats:

Following player concerns on the impact elder armour will have on the price of [[Bandos armour]], the strength bonus was reduced to match them, alongside a slight increase to the elder armour's magic defence:

After having failed a poll twice, the stats of the elder armour were adjusted in the final rewards blog, which consisted of a minor increase to the set's magic attack bonus.
