Skill Boosts
'''Some skills may not be listed in the side bar that are required for completion of these tasks! (check all quest requirements)'''

Tips

 * When buying a candle, make sure it is a WHITE candle, as black candles will not complete the task.
 * To save time, 5 flax can be picked first and spun later, or done at the same time.
 * Buy cider from the bar under Miscellania, in the dungeon, not south of, (Fairy code: C-I-P) for 2 coins each (after the Royal Trouble quest.) Buying from the Grand Exchange is quicker, but much more expensive, provided you have a teleport.
 * The cider may be used on the same person 5 times, without having to run around.
 * When walking around the statue make sure that your run is off, to make the task easier. It is more difficult to go around the statue without pausing if you are running.
 * Also when walking around the statue, start at one corner then click on the corner diagonal to it; continue this process to make it a lot easier.



Rewards
Once the tasks are completed speak to any Seer in Seers' Village to claim your reward. Experience lamps:
 * Seers' headband 1. When worn, it allows you to:
 * Use in place of Light source.
 * Be given an extra log when cutting normal trees anywhere (However, you only get experience for one).
 * At all times:
 * Talk to Geoffrey in the flax field to claim 30 free flax per day.
 * Coal trucks will now hold 140 coal.
 * Antique lamp - 1,000 experience in any chosen skill, above level 30.

Tips

 * The "Killing one guard in each tower" task will only be completed if a regular wood shieldbow is used. You can use only bronze or iron arrows unless using attacks from the Range ability book. Protection prayers may be used.
 * The "Killing one guard in each tower" task must also be completed without leaving the tower. If the player leaves at any time, the previous kills will not be counted.
 * A Shieldbow and Bronze arrows are both on sale at Dargaud's Bows and Arrows inside the Ranging Guild.
 * It is possible to bring the coal from Seers' Village bank to the closest coal truck, if you already have 120 coal. This will save the time taken to mine the coal. This can be sped up by using a Coal bag
 * If mining the coal yourself, time can be saved by wearing Varrock armour 1 or higher.
 * Archery tickets may be bought or traded with a friend.
 * The Seers headband 2 can be obtained from Stankers, however you will need to trade in your first headband to get the second headband.

Trivia

 * When given the poison chalice, King Arthur replies, You chose ...poorly. This is an Indiana Jones reference to the Holy grail, specifically referencing a scene in the movie The Last Crusade.
 * "Twisted Fire Starter", a hard task is named after a line in The Prodigy's "Firestarter" song.
 * On the day of release, the spoilers were: Spoilers do not fit with the Seers' desire to predict the future more... esoterically. Please check back tomorrow.
 * If a player had completed the Holy Grail quest before talking to Galahad, the player will automatically exclaim: I've returned the Holy grail to Camelot and Galahad will congratulate the player. The same exchange could happen before the tasks, as a player-chosen interaction option.
 * The medium task to teleport to Camelot entitled "It's Only a Model" references a gag from Monty Python and the Holy Grail that juxtaposes the enraptured cries of "Camelot" by the Knights of the Round Table to the trusty servant Patsy's deadpan line "it's only a model."
 * La morte d'arthur is old French for "The death of Arthur". 'Le Morte d'Arthur' is the title of a 15th century book by Sir Thomas Malory, being a compilation of the legends of King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot and the Knights of the Round Table much of which were taken from earlier French sources.
 * The task "All your Bass..." is a reference to an internet meme of Zero Wing's poor translation resulting in "All your base are belong to us."
 * The task mack rolled is a reference to "Rickrolling", where someone is tricked into watching Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up".
 * When talking to the Fish in the fish bowl, your character says "Just keep swimming...swimming...swimming..." This might be a reference to the movie Finding Nemo.
 * The task "Jute alors" is a play on words for the French expression "Zut alors", roughly translating to the exclamations "shoot" or "blast".
 * The task "It's a trap... no wait it's a pie" is a reference to when Admiral Ackbar from Star Wars Episode VI exclaimed "It's a trap!"
 * The task "Gonna need a bigger boat" is a reference to a quote from the 1975 movie "Jaws".
 * When collecting the Enhanced Excalibur at the Lady of the Lake while having the Excalibur in your PoH or lost, she'll tell you to show you're above the material needs by paying 500gp. When paid, however, she will say she is saving for a new dress, by this showing she herself is not above material needs.
 * The task "Moon Raker" might be a reference to the James Bond movie "MoonRaker".
 * The task "What, no cuddly toy?" is a reference to the usual prize at carnivals, where the winner of the game could win a cuddly toy.
 * For the task "King Coal" it is unknown whether or not it was intended for the amount of coal for a full load to be 224 or if it glitched due to recent updates. The description still says 120 in the event Jagex forgot to change it.
