Any chance that it will be like Kuradel, so that only people assigned to that task can enter, thus preventing bots.....

 

Also it being filled with only 90 plus slayer monsters with actual good drops? Most skills there is an advantage to leveling, after 85 there is only ice Stryks, and after 93 nothing, what advatage do you get with slayer?

 

I would love for a nice slayer update with new high level monsters which cant be botted. This is long ovedue...

You forgot Dark Beasts at level 90.

Wait what, theres been one announced?

I wouldn't call it overdue, really. Slayer's a popular, well rounded skill, and it's had plenty of updates. The rewards are way more substantial than a lot of other skills (looking at you, Firemaking).

 

That said, I'm not going to complain about it, good content is content and good content is good. Even if this should have been of a lower priority when it comes to fleshing out skills, at least the fleshing out of skills are still being done. I get the feeling that the developers enjoy designing new monster and dungeons more than most things. I look forward to it. :)

read the topic about 15% off membership & bonus xp weekend.

 

 

Btw I am hoping on some slayer only untradeable drops :)

I am hoping for a new slayer master with the new dungeon being all 90 plus slayer monsters and a 99 slayer monster, it would be a nice reason to go for 99 slayer, some high level monster with a very rare valuable drop

I hope they give slayer a point. Currently runescape is all about farming the same creature as they're the best money/xp and doing anything else is pointless. Slayer was supposed to change this, but once you unlock whatever you want to kill you don't need to do anything else.

 

If they made all slayer creatures only killable while on a task things like whips and dboots would rise a huge amount, i'd like that.

Hopefully it has black demons.

Slayer has no rewards apart from the Vine Whip.

they could release more monsters like ice strykworms, where you have to be on task to kill them, and they dont exist outside of slayer. I also hope that they are high level slayer monster like 95 and up, as it would give some advantage to people with a high slayer level

Whip, granite maul, boots, masks, dark bow?

 

It has quite a few rewards: and good ones too.. It's not jagex who decided that those items aren't worth a lot.

 

Same could be said for any gathering skill nowadays - heck for mining the best reward comes at lvl 85. - and woodcutting at lv 80.. Those should be main priority with updating them to be "valueable" for anything else than total level.

Edit; pulli beat me to it.

Sol, some pieces of granit armor, charms, whips, dark bows, mystic, dragon boots...

All obtained through everybody's favorite skill, the GE.

The point is, you don't need to train slayer to get those items, you can just buy them from other players.

I like this idea because it decreases the potential for them to be botted. Especially if there's good drops to be had.

They only come into the game through Slayer. They can't be smithed or made.

It's not worth your time doing so. Dark bows are 240k. Whips are 700k. Staff of light costs 1.3m (presumably only because you can't camp that).

 

In other words, slaying for slayer drops is pointless

They've lowered in price due to time. Originally they were great drops. Saying that it isn't a reward now would imply that drops shouldn't be released for Slayer at all because eventually down the line they'll become almost useless.

That does not change the fact that slaying for money is pointless. Whips and darkbows are the new dragon med and left half shield.

I doubt there will be any new monsters to kill. Whenever there has been recently, they ususally hype the crap out of them long before release (Aquanites, Strykewyrms). Probably just another Kuradel's dungeon for the other slayer tasks that aren't in there. ( Abby specs, black demons/drags etc.)

I'm more or less thinking this, except I think there will be new monsters. "Theres a new Slayer Dungeon on the horizon with a great atmosphere and new, interesting combat tactics, packed with new enemies to destroy and loot to acquire."

 

I really do hope it is also a way to help slayers avoid bot infested areas like with kuradal's dungeon.

I DO hope you're right, I love me some Slayer.

 

 

However, I know better than to get my hopes up. ;-)

I smell disappointment in the near future.

If you guys go into all this with really high expectations then you're bound to be disappointed. <_<
