Achievements

Tasks contains a list of cities and regions in RuneScape, each having four sets of tasks to complete. The first task diary was released on 8 May 2007. With the exception of the Lumbridge Diary, the Tasks are for members only, as many tasks involve members' skills or quests.

Achievement Diaries were removed from the game on 24 November 2010 in an update and replaced with tasks.

To start a diary, players will need to talk to the NPC found near the Task icon on the minimap. To access the Task journal, players should click on the green star icon in their interface. Doing this will bring up a list of cities each with available tasks, broken down into four categories, from the beginners' to the hard tasks. The fifth category, elite, was released on 7 September 2010 (with the exception of Ardougne Elite Diary, which was released on 20 October 2009).

The cities outlined within the Task are colour-coded the same way as quests in the Quest list.

Once a task level under a city is selected, the task journal is displayed showing a list of tasks required to complete that level.

When a task is completed, players will be informed in the Chat interface, and that particular task will be struck out in the journal. Once all tasks in a category are completed, the heading (e.g., "Easy") will turn green.

Players completing all tasks in a particular category (e.g., Easy tasks) will be rewarded with Experience lamps and other benefits available only to those who have completed the tasks. All level 1 tasks also reward the player with a wearable item with special properties and completing level 2, level 3 and level 4 tasks will upgrade the item (requires the player to have the item in their inventory to upgrade it).

The easiest tasks usually do not require any skill levels to complete, but the elite tasks usually require high levels in a particular skill and/or in-depth knowledge of a particular area within RuneScape, such as TzHaar Fight Caves.

There currently is no Task Tutor, although many NPCs, such as Sir Vant in the tutorial, have mentioned one.

There is a glitch, where, if you complete 350 Tasks, it will say "You have unlocked a new music track: ."
