The blog has been updated with an alternative to shared slayer; slayer partners. This will allow you to pair up with another player so you will both be assigned the same task from a slayer master.

This removes the possibility of increased experience rates while still allowing players to enjoy slayer with a friend.

The slayer looks a lot better now!

Will there be any rewards or perks for doing a partnered slayer task? If something doesn't make sense, then someone is probably lying.

Crystal halberd is going to rival AGS in Godwars.

Crystal halberd has slower attack speed and lower hits, but hits twice and costs less than one AGS special.

Is this intended?

Yes.

The dragon halberd is already used over the AGS in Godwars and only costs a couple of hundred k. The crystal halberd is more costly than the dragon alongside having a pretty hefty achievement diary requirement. We're happy to see it become more useful. @JagexRonan

There won't be, no. The purpose of the update is to satisfy the requests for co-op slayer without offering any additional rewards. Some people just fancy slaying with their friend. @JagexRonan

Wow, even more slayer pvm updates?

The co-op slayer is a bad idea, because of task trading and probably other unintended consequences.

edit: even in the updated version it is still possible to buy the help of someone who has blocked certain tasks. Having two (or more, that hasn't been said) blocking lists set differently leads to choosing your own task.

About the fairy rings without the staff: give us the quest first, then the reward.

@Ronan.

How will blocked tasks work?

If I have 5 tasks blocked and my friend has a different 5 blocked. Does this mean we have blocked 10 tasks and cannot receive any tasks from the blocked task list? If something doesn't make sense, then someone is probably lying.
