We talked about this with Omi in the past and he'd be willing to implement it with some changes to the OSRS version. Something to do with the fact that many of the OSRS tasks would be far too easy on Alora, and that it would take a lot of development time to make a set of custom tasks. Also consider that many of the rewards would be worthless on here.

Even though I still think it would be cool to see, I would like to see other updates prioritised over this.

Support for combat achievement diaries. It's probably the most anticipated piece of content a lot of people are waiting on right now so the question is when will it be added, rather than if it will be added.

 

As for your three questions, I'd like to throw my opinion into the mix.

 

What do we do about the slayer helmet kits already in-game?
It doesn't sit right with me knowing that the items that people associate with the Combat Diaries can be bought from the store. I wish we had some sort of say before this decision was made, but it is what it is. I wouldn't mind seeing everyone's slayer helms wiped like we saw with 3rd age sets back in the day. Giving people 75% of the store tokens back would be the way to do it from my POV. It would be better to cut the losses now and move on from it rather than looking at the helms 2 years later saying "ah but we should've made them available from CA's only". 

 

Will Grandmaster Combat Achievement Tier be required for Completionist status?

This is a topic for another day, but I also wish we had a proper Completionist challenge or maybe a Completionist Cape (t) that would be genuine challenges. Perhaps if Omicron decides to introduce the actual Completionist Cape into the game then actual tasks (something similar to the OSRS Totus clan task list) would be added and it would be a proper end goal, rather than the current "do all diaries and get 3 200m skills" which is hardly a completionist challenge. 

If none of the above is added, then I agree with your suggestion for this too.

 

Will kill count tasks be retro-active?

I agree with what you said, keeping it same as 07 is the way to go.

 

 

At the end of the day these are just my opinions and other than that great suggestion and great list I appreciate you taking your time coming up with the list of tasks.

Thanks for the well though out suggestion, @Mack.

As I previously said to you, it looks great throughout and would love to see this implemented in Alora.

 

As for the buyable kits from the store, I would like to see them get removed and refunded but as you stated it would be way too much effort to do so. Thus, I think that the way you proposed how this could be handled is the best bet. I do like the Ghommal's avernic defenders and definitely would like to see them as well as a variant of the Monkey to show the accomplishment for completing the diaries all the way to grandmaster tier. Better would be an actual Completionist cape added in game where the combat achievements would be included as requirement but that's a whole different discussion.

I agree, I'd love to just see the helms come from Combat Achievements. I just think it's unlikely to go that route with people spending real money on the items opposed to only coming from GP or clue caskets in-game. The alternative I proposed is just an attempt to satisfy all parties. The hilts will still be prestigious cosmetics to show off completion of the Master and Grandmaster tiers.

First off, massive Support!

 

 

  I've been wanting to see some sort of combat achievement system implemented within Alora ever since I seen them come to OSRS. Was a bit saddening seeing slayer helm ornament kits get added to the store rather than being earned in - game. But it is what it is. Alora has it's own custom diary system, I don't see how adding combat achievements could be much more difficult! Hopefully this gets accepted and pretty soon we'll be grinding some grandmaster tasks together! Nice change of scenery, something to do. Best of luck  :D 

 

 

P.S: the Ghommal’s avernic defender looks sick

A great suggestion, especially for late-game Alora players who are lacking motivation to play the game.

Huge support for the current helms being removed and brought in as a flex for the combat achievements, Could also Rename the current shop kits and give them a slight collor change to the osrs look. Making it clear for people playing that those are bought cosmetics rather than earned flex', while still giving a very similar look to those that bought it for the cosmetic value. (my noob programming ass assumes thats probably the easiest way to change the item ids and give them a slightly different look)

 

 

But i'd rather see the cannon/boss perks added to loyalty shop/vote points shop. (As they're really nice QoLs to grind/play the game with)

 

Reasons being:

1. I personally have a hard time with red flickering animations making me unable to do both Gauntlet and ToA . Which would pretty much instantly rule me out of those huge perks/QoL updates. 

2. Some of the tasks would require a near perfect ping/good connection, I know alot of my kangoroomans/kiwimans already hard struggle with dodging some animations in raids/phosani and so on. And since alora has 1 host. A significant amount of people would play with a handicap. And rather see a flex denied than actual perks based on irl spawnpoint. 

3. Loyalty/vote shop both could use a perk update. And I think the QoL rewards could be a perfect fit for those. While keeping the actual flex the slayer helmets.

 

Regardless of above statements/remarks. I really think the tasks itself should be added as it will give people goals/grinds to go for. I know my first reason is very personal. But I think second could be a problem for quite alot of people.

 

 

Secondly, great work on compiling the list @Mack, if possible i'd love to see more group ideas, making it so people actually are incentiviced to play together and group up, rather than the current solo reign supreme meta on alora.

100% support! adds alot of challenges for endgame, personally I think slayer helm kits should be earnt not bought or at least customize the kits earnt through combat achievements so there would be a donator version and earnt version. just a suggestion to fix the problem with existing players that have bought theirs and don't want to lose it

Huge support there's hella opportunity for this to benefit all players and make stale content engaging again. Not to mention you can make your own combat achievements to encourage more team player, bringing the community together with group pvm content

Great suggestion, would love to see this implemented in its own Alora fashion for sure. It would make early and end-game players have similar achievements and also might bring the community together more!

As I said before, I'm all up for the implementation of combat achievements but the kits who are already in the game it's either let them keep it or a 100% refund, you can't just let people spend 100 dollars on an item then be like hey lets remove it here's 75 dollars back.
