Add the ability to block tasks for the Reaper

[charred anvil]

Could we have the ability to use reaper points to block reaper tasks we don't like? Imagine something similar to the slayer task blocking system. About 3-5 block slots for 200 reaper points sounds fair (actual numbers up for debate). What does the community think about the ability to block reaper tasks?

I would personally see absolutely no issue with this. If it works for Slayer, idk why it couldn't work for Reaper too. Btw this is mentioned in this post too https://discord.com/channels/303835144073248770/1210276132998483979

Yes block and prefer would be great!!

Does raptor not already have this? Support for changing, makes sense to bring it in line with the other slayer masters 👍

Op is not talking about Raptor but Reaper tasks, meaning Death’s slayer tasks. There’s some bosses players would like to block

[frozen matrix]

Woops, I misread reaper as raptor I think 🫢

I like and support the idea of blocking reaper tasks that you don’t want, down with telos and other bosses I don’t like!

would be great, but it would be too easy. Id say deal with it

Would it be “too easy?” You need to spend reaper points to benefit from it anyways. Im sure there is a fair balance possible for QOL

Necromancy makes all combat “very easy” already. Players should have just learnt how to use the existing combat systems, but Jagex doesnt seem to have much of an issue with making the game more “accessible”

[charred anvil]

They likely mean it would be too easy to avoid bosses you don't like. Well, currently you can skip a day and request a new one tomorrow, so it's already easy. This just allows a little more control at the cost of some investment in doing your reaper tasks and spending points.

I don't see any issue in making this proposal of yours work.

[charred anvil]

Bump. Who else supports this idea?

[exotic ether]

At that point you might aswell slap a new reward option for some high amount of points that allows you to always pick which reaper task you want.

The 120 slayer cape has something similar to that so I could see a daily Boss pick being possible and fun.

[charred anvil]

Being able to block 3 bosses out of the big list we already have is far from picking your own reaper task. It just keeps players from getting those few they never want to see again.

i would rather see if we got a collection log completed, u can block it, up to 10 tasks or something

[sand temple]

that already is a thing, it has a 10% chance of proccing

To protect the value of hydrix, they can also set the reaper points earned lower as a tradeoff. So 2 blocked starts you off at 75%. 4 blocked 50%.

yes please
