GBR's RuneScape: Dragonwilds template reserves at least 10 GB of RAM and 20 GB of disk. More players, bigger worlds and mods need more.
Can I run a RuneScape: Dragonwilds server on my own PC?

Are my RuneScape: Dragonwilds saves backed up?
Yes. Backups cover RSDragonwilds/Saved and are stored off the server in object storage. Schedule them daily, weekly, monthly or on an interval, take one by hand before big changes, and lock the ones you want to keep.
