YeS! I hAvE rEtUrNeD wItH mOrE gUiDe IdEaS!!

heres my first!

G01d's mini SLAYER POINTS GUIDE!

(this may take a while 2 complete, im working from 9 to 9, and sometimes 6:30 to 9 =/ )

INTRODUCTION:

ok, for those of you who havent completed smoking kills yet, get on that, foo!

finished yet? huh.gif

good, moving on pickaxe_rune.gif

notice anything new about the slayer masters?

ya, me too! its called slayer rewards!

Icechicken: slayer rewards? 0mge3! but how do i get them??

well, thats what this guide is all about my gold charmed amigo!

SLAYER POINTS 101

mmmk, so we understand what slayer points are, right?

no?

well... theyr points... you get... from...

SLAYING!!

easy enough?

WRONG!

its more complicated than that, so i'll explain further:

slayer points can be achieved by completing 5 tasks in a row without "turaeling" a task. points will be awarded for every task after and including task 5.

(turaeling is switching a task by talking to turael in burthorpe)

confusing enough? read on.

each slayer (besides turael) will give a predetermined point amount that has nothing whatsoever to do with the difficulty of the task assigned. (so not cool...)

ok, now to elaborate, i know ur lost (if you're not, why are you reading this??)

slayer points are basically incentive for more experienced slayers to not drop their unfavorable tasks to switch to better ones. i know i switched out several times, for tasks such as terrorbirds and scabarites...

so, now that you know what they are and kind of how to get them, i can get to the nitty gritty of who gives what, and all the little tricks and tips i've accumulated.

SLAYER POINTS NITTY GRITTY

first thing, find your slayer master. you probably should pick the best one you can to get the most points possible.

find him? blink.gif

mmk, read on, step by step instructions fer gett'n points!

1. get a task

2. complete task

3. go back 'n get another

4. once you complete 5 tasks (and dont switch to turael inbetween), you will be awarded points!

5. as long as you dont switch back to turael, every task after that will also net you more points!

see? now that wasnt so hard biggrin.gif

heres a list of the points given out by each slayer master:

Mazchna - 1 pts

Vannaka - 4 pts

Chaeldar - 10 pts

Sumona - 12 pts

Duradel - 15 pts

now, assuming your determined like me, you wont want to waste any time by switching back to turael, and having to get 5 in a row again. this is good thinking (if i do say so myself smile.gif ) because completing certain numbers of tasks in a row has even more rewards!

let me explain:

each time you complete a multiple of 10 or 50 tasks in a row, you get bonus points!

so for the 10th task, upon completion, you will gain 5x the amount as usually rewarded, as well as for the 20th, 30th and 40th.even more points will b rewarded every 50 tasks, so be smart, and stick with your tasks!!!

so, in conclusion, dont switch tasks!

SLAYER REWARDS!

(next time i get a task ill take pics)

heres the order i would reccomend:

keep 100 points at all times (untill ur 4 cancel slots are full of course)

buy slayer helm first, cuz its just 1337

then ring making if you have 75 crafting

then broad arrow/bolt fletching

then, of course, save up for the bonus slayer xp

that is all!

SLAYER POINTS TIPS AND TRICKS

most of these are common sense, but i feel the need 2 explain nonetheless:

tip 1: what to buy with your points.

well, since you're reading this guide, you want to get points for some reason. thats good, you need a goal. just make sure you always keep at least 30, if not 100 pts at the ready just in case you get a task you dont want. that also means that if you're saving for a slayer helmet, save up 430 or even 500 pts b4 you buy it, because (knowing my luck) you'd get something like scabarites for your first task with the helmet!

tip 2: this takes too long, is there an easier shortcut?

kind of... i dont like it, because i like slayer xp rather than speedy trinkets... but here it is anyway.

some people who dont like doing 10 duradel tasks to get the bonus 75 pts will start off doing 9 mazchna tasks, then end it with a duradel task.

like i said, its faster, but theres more running, and less fighting... so you be the judge.

tip 3: i need more points!

well... stop reading this guide and go get some!!!

pictures will be coming soon pickaxe_rune.gif

Your second tip at the bottom works well for people just starting their run again after Burthorping a task. Just go to Mazchna or Vannaka for your first 4 tasks, then on the 5th use Sumona (if you've completed Smoking Kills) or Duradel for a bigger bonus & start collecting your points again.

You should add that the Lunar Magic NPC Contact spell makes getting and changing tasks a LOT easier. Saves you from having to go to Shilo or Burthorpe or any other place. You can get slayer tasks from any location in the game.

All it does it is contact NPCs, including slayer masters from any location, so you don't have to go to them in person.

I haven't done that new quest, so I don't know anything about slayer points. Doesn't doing the task itself get you the points?
