What is your suggestion?:

Implement Combat Achievements on Alora.

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes.

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

No.

How would this benefit Alora?:

Combat Achievements are something the community has been asking for since they were released on OSRS. They provide a large amount of PVM content from early to end-game.

Like the Achievement Diary, these tasks add a lot of depth to the game. They teach players how to properly engage with boss mechanics along with testing the abilities of players through various challenges.

They come with prestigious cosmetics to show off player's prowess and powerful rewards/perks to aid players in their continued journeys.

 

FAQ:

What do we do about the slayer helmet kits already in-game?
- While I despised the decision to put these in the store from the beginning, I don't think they should be refunded. The kits for these slayer helmets are currently tradeable so it's not reasonable to track them all down to refund the current owners. These kits should remain in the store and tradeable. On OSRS there is no kit, Ghommal creates the CA slayer helmet variants. This method should be used on Alora for helmets earned through Combat Achievements. If players want to change their slayer helmet or revert it back to a normal slayer helmet, they could do so via Ghommal.

 

Will Grandmaster Combat Achievement Tier be required for Completionist status?

- In my opinion, no. Completionist status requirements should remain as they are.

 

Will kill count tasks be retro-active?

- While this is up to the developers, it would be my hope that these tasks get completed by prior kill counts. It works this way on OSRS and that data is already tracked so I don't see why it wouldn't be able to work this way. Speed, mechanical, perfection, restriction and stamina tasks, however, are not retroactively completed. 

 

 

Now this is a big one (31 pages to be exact), so I've left the rough draft as a Google Doc. The majority of the tasks stay true to the OSRS design, but some have been taken out or altered to better suit Alora. You can view the full document anonymously here.

Example:

 

Tasks:

 

Abyssal Sire

Hard

• Abyssal Adept

  • Kill the Abyssal Sire 20 times.

• Don’t Whip Me

  • Kill the Abyssal Sire without being hit by any external tentacles.

• Don’t Stop Moving

  • Kill the Abyssal Sire without taking damage from any miasma pools.

Elite

• Abyssal Veteran

  • Kill the Abyssal Sire 50 times.

• Respiratory Runner

  • Kill the Abyssal Sire after only stunning him once.

• Demonic Rebound

  • Use the Vengeance spell to reflect the damage from the Abyssal Sire’s explosion back to him.

•  Perfect Sire

  • Kill the Abyssal Sire without taking damage from the external tentacles, miasma pools, or explosion.

Would love to see this implemented in Alora. Big support.

[Andy]

These would be really engaging and extremely fun to do. Massive Support

[Bobby lazer]

100% support. this would be amazing, the perks would be awesome QOL's and its not mandatory to do them so nobody will feel forced to do them. the helmets would still be a great reward considering you go to Ghommal to get the helmet (as stated in the suggestion), so the kits in the alora store would still valuable to those who don't want to spend the time doing the achievements.

[Lunchy]

Huge support. Would love to see this happen and it would give me a reason to get back on my 4.6 normie other than just ICE events.

[fittboberg]

Huge support. Would love to see this implemented into the game.

[Ivy]

Yes,100% support this.

Would bring a few old time gamers back as well as giving us something new to grind for.

[Kirito SAO]

This would be a great addition to the game! SUPPORT!

[VARlANT]

Support, but I don't agree with leaving current helms in game. I suggest just exchanging them for tradable bonds worth the same as what they are in store. I doubt anyone will lose money doing this since the helm orn kits sell less than the bond. It would be a bandaid we just have to rip off to keep these helms on the pedistool they deserve to be on.

 

Please for the love of Moe dont take away everyones monkeys until they complete combat achievements.

[Zachhh]

As always, support for this. Would be awesome!

[beans n cake]

Support. Would be so sweet. Would achievements already completed be auto completed or everyone start from scratch? Not sure if that'd be possible outside boss KC

[Lucas]

Huge support Mack, this would add so much content aswell as some really fun challenges.

[Bier]

Big support from me!
Even if we don't get all of the challanges that are listed, there's something special about achieving something that isn't based on RNG like a drop! I really loved the remnants challanges on TOA already, but this would really take it on another level.

The Rewards:
-I perosnally think we dont really need to remove the zuk helm from the store or refund players for it
-The hilt kits that got added to OSRS would be a perfect reward for the achievment of completing a tier.
-Thralls: I would love to see some chanages similar to OSRS with them having reduced costs/longer spelltime/higher max hit as you proceed through the Achievements
-Much rather than adding it to be a requirement for comp status, i would love to see a new comp monkey variant (if that is possible) for completing all of the combat achievements

Thanks @Mack for putting in the effort and time to make this suggestion!

[B A N K E R]

Huge support

[RNG Bitch]

Would love to see this added. Support

[Logan]

100% Support, would definitely be nice to have a new variety of content to do whilst doing end game grinds.

[Sassa fras]

Support, it's long overdue.

 

[Klam]

Would love to see this on Alora, support!

On OSRS kill count tasks are retroactively completed. For example, you wouldn't need to do 25 more Chambers of Xeric if you already had at least 25 KC. Speed, mechanical, perfection, restriction and stamina tasks, however, are not retroactively completed. So, players would all be starting from scratch to finish these types of tasks. 

[Miq]

Support! I agree what Bier said above, would be nice addition to the game.
