The Mad Scientist outfit is a five-piece costume that will be awarded to any members who attend at least four of the Combat beta weekend events. To acquire the set, log in to a beta world between 4:00PM Friday and 10:00AM Monday (BST/British Summer Time) and participate in that weekend's event.
Around mid-September, the five-piece outfit will be awarded to players on the live game. If you haven't completed 4 out of the 5 required events (as marked by Yes in the table below), you will not receive any pieces of the costume at all.[1][2]
Weekend Beta Events
Each weekend of the Evolution of Combat beta there is a new event for players to attend. The official events are usually held by Jagex, but there have been events hosted by other RuneScape players and groups.

Trivia
- Upon completion of the first and second weekend tasks players were presented with a message: "Congratulations, you have unlocked the a piece of beta armour!", which contains a grammatical error. As of the Pest Control event, this has been fixed.
