Very nice, it all sounds awesome. The bit about time trial slayer was particularly interesting.

Do you think that something similar involving completing tasks in the wilderness could also be done? Giving people a bit of bonus XP for risking their lives seems fair to me, and the wilderness is in desperate need of some incentives right now (ESPECIALLY multi-combat areas)

I think it would be supa fun to have a reason for going to slay greater demons at level 47 wildy. :D :D

"Question: Should your character automatically kill gargoyles, rock slugs, desert lizards and zygomites when they reach 0 health and you have the correct item in your inventory?"

shouldn't this be an ability that you can buy with your slayer points?

"What would new areas be without new monsters and bosses and a new slayer master to assign them?"

so are you going to add a new slayer master or not? I don't see a question about adding a new slayer master

also, what would the new slayer monsters drop? are you going to poll some unique drops to them?

Thanks for the blog Mod Reach.
Everything looks good but I'm not sure about rainbow partyhat l0l.
Maybe make it so that we only get 1 rainbow phat out of the combination of all?
It would be a nice way to have an item sink on phats and rainbow phats wouldn't be too common too.

Also what are the 2 new bosses?
Do you mean merodach (dragon) and the other guy (which looks like an old necromancer)?

The partyhat stuff is something we're still looking into. Now is the best time to get feedback down.

As for the bosses, no these would be similar in to the Smoking Kills slayer bosses. In the well unlocked by Smoking Kills, there were rooms with specific slayer monsters in. Each monster had a boss of the same species that you had to kill in order to continue to slay there. You only had to kill it once and it was essentially a bigger, stronger version of that slayer monster.

Oh now I remember the room in the quest where we had to kill the bosses (I have in mind that it was hard :o).
As for the partyhats, I think it's nice that you guys try to come up with unique ideas and items but I'm not sure about rainbow phats.
Could we have a screenshot on how it would look like before we make a decision?

You're making lots of people angry by not introducing partyhats for the Christmas event like myself who sold my partyhats because you guys said it would be re-introduced again on Christmas but unfortunately you go against your own words, Jagex. I'm sadden by this and many like myself as well.

No new Magic weapon for Slayer?

I guess Slayer is melee/range exclusive...

When we were discussing what unqiue drops, if any, to give any new slayer monsters. We were keen to ensure magic got first dibs on any new weapon. This is something that's still up for discussion though :) -----
