To keep it Fair just make it so that the clue steps counter doesn't go down until you finish one..

You know what.... This isn't a bad idea

I'm sure it would also be much easier to implement.

Yeah, I really like it as I think about it more too. No more juggling required for users of either relic, without buffing clues too much. Maybe if they did this someone would actually be able to complete a master clue as well

Honestly, if this can be done, then I personally have no issue. It removes juggling from both relic pickers, and gives those with treasure seeker a better avenue to complete clues as it was first intended with a clue relic.

I have posted this on Reddit, Twitter, and Here feel free to share anywhere you can.

Much needed update! Puts the treasure hunter tier on par with slaer relic. Helpful for all players but much more for those have relic already.

Slayer has plenty of points that Treasure Hunter has difficulty getting.

100 - Defeat kraken
100 - 10 superiors
250 - 20 superiors
250 - 250 kraken
250 - 500 kraken
250 - 750 kraken
250 - 1 unsired
250 - abyssal bludgeon
250 - abyssal dagger
250 - 100 sire kills
250 - 250 sire kills
250 - 500 sire kills
250 - Defeat cerb
250 - Equip cerb boots
250 - Defeat thermy
250 - 50 superior

and more.

This change is completely unfair!

So my treasure seeker relic only stacks clues and is therefore useless now ... Subject of fairness, this heavily puts the game in favor of most that chose the slayer relic. Giving no benefit to the players that actually chose clues and are dealing with the area restrictions like champs. Strongly disagree with this update for all players.

Is it possible to auto unlock the "Light your mining helmet" Hard Lumby Diary task? You guys already auto unlocked the Elite Lumby Diary tasks that require Death to the Dorgeshuun to complete. Some of us arent unlocking Asgarnia so it makes it impossible to complete the Hard Lumby Diary but we're able to technically complete the Elite Lumby Diary without getting the reward though.

This change applying to those who took Unnatural Selection would be a bit unfair. It would make sense to apply it to Treasure Seekers who specced in to doing clues.
If it gets implemented this way, to balance it out would be something like making superior slayer creatures a 1/25 for all. Or allow players to pick their tasks. Otherwise there would be absolutely no reason to take Treasure Seeker.

Idk if this is the place you do this, but the clue for "Spin on the bridge by the Barbarian Village. Salue before you talk to me. Equip PURPLE GLOVES, a steel kiteshield and a mithril full helmet" Requires Mory because that's the only place to get the gloves. I have Kandarin, Frem and Asgarnia. Idk if this is what we should report but trying I guess

I'm VERY for this change. I outlined exactly why in a 10 minute video that got pretty well received, and nothing would make my league more fun than not having to drop like, every clue I get ever.

Thankyou for listening Jagex!

So, because most people took the slay relic and start complaining... you just delete the important part of the clue scroll relic? Buff the meta, why? There is literally no reason to choose clue relic now.

Maybe make all task-only creatures slayable without task for compensation.
That would make it for both more possible to complete all tasks. (?)

I hope in future leagues, you guys embrance things that aren't the way you like it. That's just how it makes leagues something challenging.

I checked the Reddit today, where Mods were interacting with player responses. I don't personally have a Reddit account, which is why I am posting here.

I find it very disheartening how clearly the Mods are ignoring the feedback from Treasure Seekers and others that optimized their build for clue-completion. After a stream of responses laying out why this felt like a bad change for Treasure-Seekers and other purposeful Clue-Completers, and in response to a persuasive post reminding everyone that Flippy explicitly said to pick your regions etc around being able to complete clues, a Mod just totally ignored it all and said "It's a definite buff to both Relic choices". The whole point is that most people with Treasure Seeker (and other people who purposefully built their accounts around clue completions, whether by region picking or choosing the otherwise less powerful exploding attacks) DO NOT feel that this change helps them significantly. Rather it makes all of their theorycrafting and actual effort worthless, while then putting them at a significant disadvantage to people who just mindlessly chose the majority relic.

Jagex hasn't bothered to poll Treasure Seekers. They just created forums where they can ignore individual responses as anecdotal and push through the changes they want. They have been so clearly catering to majority choices and making this absurd ezscape for those who chose majority relics/areas. I know that next time, I won't bother with theorycrafting, since clearly the "big brain" move is to just pick what the mods/majority pick, since that will receive all of the buffs and none of the nerfs. And honestly, theorycrafting was the funnest part of this leagues so that's unfortunate and I'm sure will reduce my playing, perhaps drastically.

Thank you for the effort you put into Leagues. It is fun. But all these major changes --GWD and then even more so this, really leave a bad taste in my mouth, even as someone not competing for high ranks.
