Dire_Wolf Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Alright i am wondering what Tasks are the worst TASKS in slayer.... From level 70-85 I know this belongs most likely in "Help and advice", but i think that everyone has diffrent oppions on it. So maybe this can be a discuession, either way if you want to move it feel free. So go ahead everyone, tell me your 4 tasks that you hate and why!

smartme Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 There are already a bunch of threads exactly like this one... try to Search before making a new thread next time. On topic: Black Demons - only task I blacklisted Others that are distasteful, but still worth doing for variety instead of blacklisting include: Warped Terrorbirds Black Dragons Hellhounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brunokiller Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Scarabites. Falling in a pit trap with 40 hp left (although my ring of life saved me) isn't really pretty. High-number steel dragon tasks. they seem to take fooorever Kalphites. Way to crowded Goraks. They hit hard and are a pain to range I haven't blacklisted yet though.

Patr1ck Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Scabarites have to be one of the worst tasks ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xpoc454 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Steel dragons- to hard and not many, real slow Mithril dragons- never done but probably not ready for yet. Water fiends- Tried them last night for first time, forget it, i hate dual attack monsters Warped terror birds- Using chime stinks on them, multi attack also is terrible.

pizzar456 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 I personally don't like Scabarites, black demons, steel dragons. I haven't done Goraks yet, so I don't know about them, but I love skeletal wyverns, and warped terrorbirds aren't that bad. As for Iron dragons, I don't think that they would be as bad as steel dragons since there are alot more of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xpx Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Black demons, Black dragons, Steel dragons and Hellhounds are the tasks i have blocked, but that's only so because i can not get terrorbird nor scarabs tasks.

Aneron Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Steel dragons (not enough spawns, irons and campers get in the way, uber def) That's the only task I'm sure about. I'm probably going to block wyverns due to the slowness and need to bank, but I'm not sure yet. I'm considering hellhounds and greaters too... great tasks but just too crowded. Just to clear up a few misconceptions: Black Demons - Huge xp, awesome crimson drops, and rune drops *do* pay for p pots. No reason to ever not do this task. Warped terrorbirds - Chiming is annoying, but you once again get massive xp and p pots are covered. They have very low def. Black dragons - Meleeing baby blacks in the chaos tunnels is very fast slayer xp, and decent prayer xp. Or you could solo KBD which is great fun. Scarabites - Cannoning these below Sophanem is some of the fastest slayer xp in the game and the 3rd fastest way to get crimson charms in the game. If you do it correctly you take very little damage. Kalphites - Not as crowded as people think, you can always resort to a low population world without making them a bad task. Goraks - They are cannonable and superbly fast xp. Mithril dragons - A very quick task, with the potential for massive profit. Fun too. Waterfiends - Second fastest crimson charms in the game, with bunyip you need no healing. Gargoyles - Not nearly as bad as people generally think of being, they're profitable and the xp is fine. Plus hawt blue charms STOP BANNING GOOD TASKS!!! :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't done slayer in quite a while (*cough*ftp*cough), but from what I have slayed, I'd consider: Steel dragons: takes forever to kill, only 4 spawns, irons get in the way time to time. That's really about it. Of course, it's not like I can ADD anything else. :lol: (have yet to try) Need a new signature....perhaps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star_Fox Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 aberants - just don't like em kalphites - lousy drops, too crowded, cannon noobs. metal drags - long distance from bank, supplies, too crowded if you're doing steels. ankovs - other then clues they drop nothing, also long distance from bank blk demons - aggressive, high hits, and high hp. warped beasts - lousy drops, crystal chime requirement, and long distance from bank.

daigotsu Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Once I max melee (95 Strength, last to go), I will cancel black demons until/unless the drop list is improved. They're an awesome melee task with a godsword, and in the Chaos Tunnels you can "safespot" so you're only attacked by one at a time. Suqahs have poor drops, are too remote (unless on lunar), and have multiple attack styles in a potential multicombat area. They will probably also go. Jungle horrors are no longer assigned by the top tier slayers, but are worth cancelling due to their terrible, terrible drops, plus the effort required to reach them in the first place. Re: other people's cancel lists: Steel dragons are crowded, and if that's your main concern it's a decent cancel. Kalphites are worth canceling if you don't use the missions for KQ slaughter; their drops are terrible and they are a dull grind unless you cannon them. Aberrant Specters have an excellent drop profile overall -- high-priced herbs and herb seeds, adamant platebodies, lava battlestaffs, key halves, black mystic bottom, and loads of good charms. Gargoyles, like Specters, have a good drop profile -- adamant boots, granite maul (had two back-to-back in one task), and black mystic top, as well as being a higher-frequency blue charm dropper. Scabarites have one very good killing spot, nice drops, and can be a quick task if done right. Warped Terrorbirds have excellent drops which can make the pain of dealing with them worth it. Ankous have multiple stacking drops and for that reason alone should be kept and done always. Obviously your list of hated tasks depends on your priorities. I prefer the monsters who generally speaking drop good stuff; others may just have too high an annoyance factor with how hard certain monsters are to kill, including additional required gear. Others still may just want to avoid the huge crowds that mass at popular, easy creatures. 2009 Member Goals: Undetermined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajk822 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Personally I blacklisted Abbarent Spectres(sp?) because I'm not high enough level to melee em effectively yet, and dont have slayer helm to cannon them. I also always cancel red dragons, but besides that I really dont mind any other task. How do people not like black demons though? They're reallly good xp 4031st person to 99 Thieving on 5/25/2008If anyone plays NBA Live '08 online on the Wii please PM me. I'm up for anyone.
