It really is bizarre to be asked to kill elves after finishing SotE, when there is no longer any "evil" faction of elves to speak of. I think it'd be neat to be offered the choice when receiving an elf task to do gauntlet/CG instead, similar to how you can kill Jad for a TzHaar task.
#Let us kill Hunllef/Corrupted Hunllef for elf tasks

Sure, as long as you don’t get the slayer helm bonus this seems fine
atomic nymph
I mean
how would you?
you don't bring gear into gauntlet anyway
so that's a nonissue imo
still vigil
yeah, but like I’ve seen this before and people ask for the bonus to apply
still vigil
Elf tasks are pretty long is the only thing
One task is a lot of CG unless all the mobs count somehow
Or like you said with jad tasks it’s shorter
wise igloo
Elf tasks are pretty long is the only thing
Could have it be x amount of elves or 9 Hunllef kills
That or make the crystal monsters in the gauntlet count towards the total
So you are incentivized to kill fewer of them on runs
Maybe just make this a new slayer unlock/toggle
Swap elves for crystal monsters in the G/CG

I'm down as a slayer unlock instead of killing elves and make it similar to Jad task size

I like this, but only having to do one feels too easy. I'd say 10 completions feels like a task. If you're going for this though, you'd want it for the Slayer xp or the option at not a bad task

Jad is 30mins - 1 hr and 63 waves though. Hunleff is ~15 mins. Probably just make it like a regular boss fight (1-32)
still vigil
Hunleff is not 15min
tropic basin
Hunleff is not 15min
My average run was ~9 mins
finite saffron
you have 10 minutes of prep and the fight should take you 2-4 minutes, depending on stats. Obviously it can be done quicker though
tropic basin
Yeah i dont wait the full 10 mins
wise igloo
Yeah regular gauntlet you can get geared up pretty quick doing the tier 2 strats
Honestly just need tier 2 on weapons and tier 1 armor
balmy oyster
you don't bring gear into gauntlet anyway
Aside from the slay xp, there is no benefit to it being on task, so why?
balmy oyster
Ensouled heads are too tho
atomic nymph
what?
balmy oyster
Ensouled elf heads, count for elves on slay task, tis a much faster, prayer beneficial alternative
atomic nymph
I don't really see the relevance
balmy oyster
Your want an alternative to a horrid task, that already exists
Other than asking for the slayer XP, theres no reason for CG to count as elves, on an elf task
Hunleff is also a Wolf, not an elf, just like how Sara isn't considered a Spiritual creature
atomic nymph
I'm really not following your logic here
Jad is an alternative for a TzHaar task despite ensouled TzHaar heads also being a thing
hazy bone
Hunlleff not elf
Do ensouled elves
atomic nymph
Is your logic that there can never be more than... 2 ways to do a task?
I don't get what you're trying to argue here, genuinely
balmy oyster
Then it's in line with the logic of having CG count as elves, from your perspective
Jad was also a thing before tzharr slayer was, moot point
atomic nymph
It sounds to me like you're just being argumentative for the sake of being argumentative
balmy oyster
No, your asking for irrelevant things to count for something it never should
If you get assigned it as a boss task (assuming they'd add it) then sure? But why tho?
For what real purpose?
Motivation for CG?
Jad is a tzharr
Hunleff is not an elf, to counter your prior point
It's not that hard to differentiate
Aside from wanting to get slay xp from it, there no benefit to the game as a whole, since you can't take gear in anyway for a slayer helm buff, to offer that as an option for a slay task
If there were any relevance, or benefit to it, sure, let's talk about it
But we're talking about XP only, from something that can be done at any time, since there no gear/supply input externally
atomic nymph
Jad and Zuk (who can both be killed for a TzHaar task with perks) are not actually TzHaar, lorewise
And yet they can be killed for the slayer tasks anyway
Moreover this presents an option for elf slayer tasks that isn't literally genocide, so that's neat as a bonus
Your arguments that Jad/Zuk aren't comparable to this in terms of being alternative tasks are just... not really correct or relevant
balmy oyster
Heads aren't genocide, and gets you pray xp, the option your looking for is already there lol
atomic nymph
"Yes, my bag full of hundreds of severed elf heads is not genocide"
"They were already like that your honor"

I like it but with all mobs inside counting. Essentially expanding Elf task to “Elves or crystal creatures” as a slayer point unlock maybe.

I’d rather kill the dude who won’t let me back in without claiming my 14x trout first like an absolute buster
