26th January 2005 - Slayer Skill

The Slayer Skill

Today we have introduced a new skill for members called the Slayer skill!

The Slayer skill allows you to kill strange new creatures which would previously have been immune to your attacks. These previously undisturbed creatures have been hoarding treasure for a long time, and as such you may find great rewards from killing them...

To start the Slayer skill, you should find one of the Slayer Masters who are located in various places around RuneScape. There are five Slayer Masters in total, each catering to different strengths.

They can be found in Burthorpe, Morytania, Edgeville Dungeon, Zanaris, and Shilo Village.

The Slayer Master will assign you a mission to kill a certain number of a specific type of monster. Some of those monsters will be ordinary monsters, some of them will be the new Slayer skill monsters.

By killing the assigned monsters, you will gain Slayer experience. Each Slayer Master has a different selection of enemies they will assign from, each being tailored to suit different levels of players.

You may have a different Slayer Master suggested to you as more suitable for your level, but you can ignore that advice if you have a particular choice of Slayer Master to take assignments from.

Once you have completed your assignment, you can get another by returning to a Slayer Master. Some monsters will require specific weapons to kill them, (or equipment to protect you against them!) all of which can be purchased from the various Slayer Masters.

Slayer levels and equipment required to kill the new monsters can be found in your in-game skill guide by clicking on the slayer skill icon, and also on the manual page.

We have also added two new dungeons where the Slayer skill monsters can be found. One of them is the mysterious tower north east of Canifis that many people have been wondering about. The other can be found underground to the east of the Fremennik Province.

Be careful if you don't have the slayer level to fight these monsters - they are very dangerous.

We have also added greater numbers of certain monsters around the world, to cope with the increased demands created on these creatures by the Slayer Masters.

In other news, the Magic Guild in Yanille has recently received a shipment of new Mystic Robes!

Like most robes, they offer no resistence to physical attacks, but will enhance the magical abilities of their wearer.


WOOT :-D NEW SKILL!

On Thursday 6th May 2010 the United Kingdom voted for change. A change from socialist Labour rule, where our civil liberties were eroded, our sovereignity were eroded, where our communities eroded and our integrity and morality also. On Thursday 6th May 2010 the United Kingdom got that change. With the new coalition Government comes responsibility, respect, responsiveness and most importantly, fairness. Fairness for every person in the country. Not the fairness that only worked for the trade unions, nor the fairness that encouraged the unemployed to remain unemployed. Fairness for everyone. That is the fairness that counts.

This is the biggest update since RS2! Good job Jagex! The skill looks really interesting and cool...

I've got a friend to check, the new mage robes are 235k in total from the shop. It looks really cool, but unluckily I'm non-member, so I can't post a picture :-( . The full set includes hat, top, bottom, gloves and boots, totalling to +45 attack magic bonus without anything else!

I suppose this was to stop Zezima from getting the max skill total, he was only 7 lvls away...

P.S. I was the one to tell Daniyal! Woot to myself :-P

Edit: Second Post woot!
Edit2: First to vote :lol:

A bit late... I waited when it just got on for 10 minutes with some 8 other people to get first post.. dang :) at least first page.

Great update... Although, its still fighting, so whats the use of a new similar to that skill. A second thing is these robes really interfer with splitbark and cost a lot too. Nice new magic spell.

Last but not least...

I have had a VERY similar to this gameexperience in a former game.... Astonia III there you could only level up via talking to a mane who gave u a mission that u have to do and get some xp from, well personally.. i HATE that, but we will see.

Nice update, average though, not a great gameplay change, but its a new suit to the game.

I hope we get the STATS of the items asap on forum, I already got a screenie of the prices - ll post soon.

EDIT: well there it is: the items + prices ->

Boots are +3
Gloves are +3

I have 0 gp now so dont nag on, because I cant afford getting the other items =)

Only for members, bummer. I was about to try it out.
It's pretty cool for there to be a new skill, though.
