Those oh so repeatable tasks

With the new D&D I thought about compiling a list other than on a scrap of paper pinned to my noticedboard that reminds me what to try and do each day on RS.

 

 

 

Some things I came up with for Daily Tasks:

 

 

 

-Bork

 

-Jade Vine alternate check health/attack

 

-Herb Run

 

-100% On MTK

 

-64 Battlestaves from Zaff's Staff Shop

 

-Buy Pineapples & Seaweed from Arhein on Catherby Docks.

 

-Collect buckets of sand from Bert in Yanille.

 

-Phoenix Quills.

 

 

 

 

 

The Weekly Tasks:

 

 

 

-Circus

 

-Penguins

 

-Tears of Guthix

 

 

 

I was wondering if anyone else had anything to add to this, or even to comment about the amount of repeatable tasks Jagex are introducing. Also does anyone have a rough time when these events become replayable?

 

 

 

I know for sure with Zaff he resets at 12.00am GMT. But with Arhein he seems to keep telling me to come back later somedays. And I have no idea about Bork since it's too out of the way to bother checking after midnight sometimes.

 

 

 

Thanks!

Well I'm insanely lazy, so the only ones of them I actually do is Bork and Penguin hunt :D

 

 

 

But I supposed to could add "Check Grand exchange database" on there =/

 

I mean, I do that daily for the recent price updates. There's no set time for it though.

I know Arhein will not restock unless you buy him out.

 

 

 

Went to him looking for pineapples a few days ago... he had 2 in stock... the 2 I didn't buy the last time I spoke to him. :wall:

Why wouldn't you do the circus? It takes 5 minutes and gets you quite alot of xp for the time used.

Doesn't seem worth it to me. Especially since it's 3 skills I kind of don't need to level any further right now.

I'm sure that Arhein and Bert restock exactly every 24 hours. If you try talk to them even 1 minute earlier, they will say the stuff isn't available yet. In the case of Arhein you'll have to buy out his entire stock before this timer starts counting.

 

 

 

One little trick to check whether Zaff will sell you battlestaff is to wear the Lumbridge Explorer's rings. The ring recharges at the same time that Zaff restocks. So when you see the message telling you the Explorer's ring has recharged, Zaff will have battlestaff available too.

I know for a fact that the penguin reset time is random, and has a range of several hours (I belive it is at least 6). I also know the circus resets at the same time. I have nothing to add to your list.

I hope that they add little reminders that sometimes appear around the Minimap/HP/Summoning/Prayer Gauges or just one list that's accessed from a new tab at roughly the same area that has all repeatable tasks listed and when you click one it tells you when you can do it again. That goes with the whole theme for this year...

It wouldn't be a bad thing to drop into the suggestion forum. They could make it another tab in the Quest menu like they did with the diaries.

I thought the same thing a few days ago.

 

 

 

A new Yellow starred tab, with information like :

 

 

 

how many penguins you've seen this week, how many points you have left.

 

which circus acts you have performed this week

 

if you are elligable for a star sprite reward

 

if you have done the phoenix for the day

 

 

 

and then optional ones that you can trigger for example Bork & Zaff.

I know for sure that the Explorer ring resets at the same exact time every day. I think it depends on when you completed the diary. Mine resets at 4:23 P.M. every day.

 

 

 

Battlestaffs, however start the timer when you buy them all. But the timer doesn't go an entire day. I think it's more like 20 hours. Any confirmation on this?

I'm almost positive i've seen something extremely similar to this on these forums.

 

 

 

The Tip.it Times article "Don't forget your chores" sparked a conversation of repeatable tasks. Link here: viewtopic.php?f=30&t=769269

 

 

 

I would support a Repeatable tasks star tab on the quest tab that would tell me how long it is until I can repeat a task. The three stars could be next to each other instead of the changing-colour-when-clicked thing. An ingame message like "You can now talk to Bert about a new sand delivery" would also be useful. I'm guessing the flax gatherer from Seers diary is probably going to be repeatable task so the rate at which these tasks are introduced seems to be growing. Eventually we will need to have a list for these be it on paper or in game if we intend to do the tasks.

Pineapples and Seaweed aren't worth your time, both are them are only around 20k profit.

But getting the seaweed every day with the sand is nice for anyone who likes to earn crafting xp in many varied ways as possible.The gold comes second.

It would be nice instead of doing some of those tasks daily you could do them weekly and get 5-7 times the exp or whatever. If you actually did all of those daily tasks you'd never get anything else done.

Battlestaffs and Bork reset at 00:00 Jagex time.

 

Sand and Misc are unfortunatly from the time you collect the sand.

 

 

 

I wish that all the repeatable stuff reset at the same time each day or week. A problem I have encountered with Tears of Guthix is that it gets later and later everytime I do it until it skips a day and the cycle continues. I think my Tears is on Sundays now but in the near fiture will move to mondays as its already getting very late.

I always do penguins on Wednesday. Same with the Circus and Tears, and Kingdom every few days.

 

 

 

I should start killing Bork and Vine more often, though.
