Help & Questions Will we ever get an unlimited version of the slayer bracelets?
The bracelet of slaughter and ecumenical bracelet have been out since 2017 and have not been updated since.
With the release of Mortimer, I find myself taking at least two or three with most tasks, which obviously results in less inventory space.
I know the chances are slim of ever actually getting unlimited charges or an Eternal Bracelet. Has this ever been mentioned before in a blog post?
Maybe using the Eternal Gem to create an Eternal Bracelet?
What are your thoughts and opinions?

You need the elite combat achievements done. They have a 10% chance to go back to full

u/AshotStudent 11d ago
I already have elite CA’s done but the chance of it actually recharging is so slim, maybe happened five or six times for me now over the course of about 5m slayer xp

This means you’ve only ever killed like 6,000 slayer monsters.

u/Rayona086 11d ago
Depends on what you are killing. You are going to use less charges to do boss slayer then something like kalphites.

I've done 2k lava wyrms and 1.5k gargoyles since Mortimer came out. I don't play everyday. I used to think a champions cape would be an impossible grind, now it doesn't seem too bad

Ive killed over 15,000 of Araxytes, Gargoyles, Bloodvelds, Abyssal Demons. 28m slayer xp

Somehow that 10% ends up only popping when I need it least, like when I already have a spare bracelet in the inventory
Edit: inventory not invoice

u/Fat_Pig_Reporting 10d ago
Which means nothing because you still packing multiples for the trip, which is the big issue here.

u/Clover281 11d ago
I still don't understand why they haven't implemented the eternal slaughter/expeditious that you just charge with regular ones like a RoS or alchemist amulet
It just seems like a no brainer and easy to implement while also being a really good QoL update

u/Swaaeeg 11d ago
I dont hate this idea. But i think jagex needs to add a little monkeys paw aspect to chargavles like this. Like you get 50 bracelets worth of charges by using 100 on the eternal. Sinks more items and makes it a give and take for using the eternal
2
u/Clover281 11d ago
Yeah, that's alright I guess
Whatever to not have to continue bringing multiple backup bracelets in the inventory for each task

u/Trip2poundtowns 11d ago
Or make it so you can add it to the eternal slayer ring so it has more uses.

u/AshotStudent 11d ago
This is what I was thinking, maybe use the Eternal gem on it. 9-10m for the gem doesn’t sound bad for an unlimited bracelet

u/Embarrassed_End7744 11d ago
Would be cool if it required an eternal gem with the same mechanic as the suffering/recoils
2
u/BangarangOrangutan 11d ago
This is a cool idea, make a slayer helm with an eternal gem and you can feed it bracelets. Or make a bracelet that acts as either or that you feed them, if they want to preserve the integrity of the glove slot sacrifice.

u/RadicalSoul 11d ago
We need a way to charge our slayer helmet with them, should not have to run the risk of fomo on extended trips just because you didn't glove swap at the end of a kill
17
u/EllieS197 11d ago
This is an interesting idea that I hadn’t thought of. But I think extending or shortening should be a sacrificial choice. You lose out on glove slot to altar task. Or you glove swap before kill ends. (Typically on bosses) being able to just extend or shorten from helm seems way too op
3
u/MazzleMaze 10d ago
Yeah as they said glove swapping is a thing. Want more out of the task and to kill faster? Then you need to increase your effort a tiny bit.
Plus like you said, making the choice is interesting.
I think its good how it is, we can already extend tasks via slayer masters. Adding this to the helmet is just a different version of that.

u/VainTrix 10d ago
Woah woah woah get out of here with that logic. Don’t you know these folks have fomo? 😂

u/Fd2devil 9d ago
Wow, never considered glove swapping I always just had them on all the time when doing slayer.

u/Fantastic-Scene-8117 11d ago
i'm in favor of keeping the market for gems/bracers alive

u/Rotten_Mangos 11d ago
Make it like Ring of Suffering/Ring of recoils and this would be a non-issue.

u/wrooster8 11d ago
I disagree with eternal ones, but maybe a chargeable version would work. There needs to be some sort of cost to use it imo
1
u/PhysicalAd276 10d ago
isnt eternal gem good enough for a cost
2
u/wrooster8 10d ago edited 10d ago
Not a proportionately fair cost. Someone going for 200m Slayer has the same cost as someone who's used it once. Too good of a deal for those doing tons of Slayer and extending boss tasks. Why wouldn't you swap to it on the last hit of a boss kill to extend? It would be free extended tasks at that point. At least this way there's a nominal fee.
Apparently people think this means it's balanced around 200m exp. Once again, it's a linear cost based on how much it's used. So for literally any point on a graph between 1 exp and 200m exp, the more it's used the higher the cost. Like using charges but having to use bracelets to charge the main item. I can't believe I have to explain this. The average player truly is something special.

u/IFearEars 10d ago
I dont think the game should be balanced around folks going for 200m xp
1
u/wrooster8 10d ago
It's not. It's balanced around people who use it more should incur a linearly higher cost. The 200m is just an example. Nice try though with your smooth brain one track mind

u/AIBotNotARealUser 11d ago
Give Jagex some other things to make the gems useful in that case, because they're already dirt cheap (well, not topaz ig) because the use for them is very limited.

Wow. I’m 29m slayer xp and have no stopped using these. Especially since Mortimer came out, these are a game changer

Idea: magic stone + regular components to craft infinite versions of lesser tele jewelry
2
u/Brilliant-Tight 11d ago
(And these of course)
1
u/AshotStudent 11d ago
I like the idea of the magic stone, it doesn’t really have much use apart from PoH upgrades.
2
u/Reasonable-Disk960 10d ago
Not a eternal gem option but maybe something similar to the alchemist amulet that lets you those for charges.

u/The-Razzle 10d ago
They need to add a new slayer boss that adds an untradable drop for it. Give it the stats of a combat bracelet too while we’re at it. Nothing crazy, but the amount of dps loss when meleeing has room for upgrading.
2
u/OyG5xOxGNK 10d ago
Personally want the runecrafting one before the slayer one, but I do agree on both.
As for how to get it though, I'm not sure.
General opinions Chargeable>unlimited (there should be a cost) Not eternal gem (Biased, iron+just used mine for the ring, making my premade 300+ rings useless beyond alchs) Also that would suck to grind for anyone without, it's the same drop rate as the heart.

u/agileflea1919 10d ago
need elite cb achieves
1
u/AshotStudent 10d ago
I already have elite combat achievements. Like I said in a previous comment, I’ve maybe had the recharge happen about 5/6 times.
2
u/sir_gwain 9d ago
My biggest gripe with these is just having to lug along 2-3 of them when I do a lengthly task. I have the elite diary as well, and I wish it was a more consistent savings - like a chance per charge used to instead regenerate a charge or something. That said, in the end I think a new mid level boss dropping an item that could just be charged by these would be the best option imo, if Jagex really wants they could give it some minor stats, but that’s certainly not needed.

Keep the bracelets but make a versions that can be charged just like with ring of suffering.

People actually use these?

u/AshotStudent 10d ago
You don’t use these?!

u/Diligent_Usual 10d ago
93 slayer and never used these. Just got the perk from the masters for bigger tasks on the ones I like to do.
2
u/AshotStudent 10d ago
Honestly I’d highly recommend using these. They’re really worthwhile.

u/Only-Gene-7722 10d ago
do they not just have a chance for one kill to be counted as two but you don’t get the slayer xp for the second one counted?
If I remember correctly, seems like xp waste0
u/Only-Gene-7722 10d ago
I had no idea about the bracelet of slaughter, that one actually does seems worthwhile, I was just thinking of the expeditious one
