Helping the war effort
The war effort in Burthorpe is supplied by the civilian efforts in Taverley, but they are struggling to keep up with the war machine’s resource-hungry demand.
Captain Haskell has been appointed as development and requisitions officer for the imperial guard, and is responsible for acquiring equipment and resources from external sources such as the kind-hearted adventurers that helped restore order to the area, as well as ensuring they keep their skills up to scratch to further improve what they can do for Burthorpe.
In order to accomplish this, Captain Haskell has set up a Noticeboard, from which the adventurer can acquire challenges to help with the war-effort, and to notify adventurers of other challenges that they can pick up.
Challenges
Challenges offer quick, skilling related tasks that you can complete given your levels and quest progression. These can be completed but not handed in for a reward, however they will still appear in your list of Challenges to serve as a reminder of what you can do. More will become visible as you level up in the various skills. Check back often to see what you can do!
Challenges can be filtered by:
- Recommended - one challenge from each skill category with the highest requirements
- Daily - Up to 5 challenges are listed here and these give rewards for completion
- Skill - Challenges by skill (Melee, Magic and Ranged come under Combat).

You also have Minigame Challenges to explore.
Daily Challenges
As well as normal Challenges, there are also Daily Challenges (show in the image above). You get one a day - randomly selected from the main Challenge list - up to a total of five, and they are in a range of skills. These will be highlighted with a gold star on a red background on the Challenges tab.
If you complete a Daily Challenge, you will not receive a replacement until the next day. The same occurs if you complete all 5 of your Daily Challenges - you can still only get one new Daily Challenge per day.
It should be noted that if there is a Daily Challenge in slot 5, it will be pushed out of the Daily Challenge list when it expires. This means you will lose it as a reward, even if it was currently in progress, or even complete and awaiting hand in.
Some Daily Challenges require you to hand in items. For this type of Challenge, when you have completed the required number of actions (e.g. you have smithed 2 bronze platebodies for the "Smith 10 bars worth of bronze equipment" Challenge) you should hand these in to the Captain Haskell. The items are taken from you (whether they are in your inventory or bank) and you are then given a reward. You can hand in noted items if you find this easier.
For the Daily Challenge rewards, see below.
Rewards
For completing a Daily Challenge, you will receive a squeal spin, XP (an XP lamp is given for combat daily challenges) in the appropriate skill and a Challenge Mystery Bag. A Challenge Mystery Bag contains a selection of materials in a random skill (i.e. you won't necessarily receive crafting related items for completing a crafting challenge) if the Challenge required you to hand in items. You may also receive coins in the bag.
