Block and Prefer Lists

Example Block/Prefer Lists

Note: The following block/prefer lists are just examples, it’s always more efficient to make your own.

⬥ It's assumed the player will slay Moss Golems for Creatures of the Lost Grove tasks and Ripper Demons for Demon cluster tasks, as well as bringing Binding Contracts bindingcontract for GP.

⬥ These lists are made for use with Laniakea laniakea

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Before level 90, when you can't use her as your Slayer Master, its generally not worth thinking too hard about your block/prefer list, and you can just block tasks you don't like or find unrewarding.

Block/Prefer List for XP:

Block
⬥ Aviansies ⬥ Black Demons ⬥ Kalphites ⬥ Dagannoths ⬥ Dark Beasts ⬥ Mutated Jadinkos ⬥ Order of Ascension members ⬥ Steel Dragons

Personalised Spreadsheet

⬥ Configuring the spreadsheet below is an easy way to find the best Block/Prefer list for your personal use.

⬥ Be aware of the Slayer collection log while blocking monsters, and whether it's something you have interest in filling out or not.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• If the Slayer collection log is something you're interested in doing, check out our full guide on obtaining Ultimate Slayer, which has an alternative block/prefer list included.

Customisable Block/Prefer Spreadsheet ⬥ Click File > Make a copy top left for a personal copy. ⬥ Toggle the Home page settings to match what you use.     • The Misc section is for unlisted XP modifiers, e.g. enter 10 if you have an unlisted 10% XP buff. ⬥ Enter your KPH in the column on the right of the Experience page.     • You can select tasks to lock, force prefer/block, and that you use sacrificescrim for here as well. ⬥ Select the focus of your Slaying in the next page's dropdown menu and copy the displayed Block and Prefer list.

Additional Information

⬥ Players start with a only a few slots to block/prefer monsters, gaining 1 of each every 50 Quest Points achieved, up to a maximum of 8 slots to block and prefer monsters at 400 Quest Points.

⬥ Don't be afraid to skip undesired or bad assignments, as you can skip around half of the tasks given by Laniakea laniakea without losing many Slayer points overall, and they can be farmed with relative ease, making it unnecessary to force yourself to do any tasks you dislike.

⬥ The assignment given by your Slayer Master is not completely random, a system unique to each Slayer Master known as weighting is used to make some assignments more common than others, and may be a factor in what the player chooses to block/prefer.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• The higher the weighting, the more common the assignment compared to others, the weighting for each task a Slayer Master has can be viewed on their page of the RuneScape Wiki.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• As we can see from the image below, Jacquelyn jacquelyn has a slightly higher chance to assign us Cows, Goblins, or Zombies.
