If you're on this page, you've probably been referred here by a member of the in-game clan chat. There are a selection of questions which are asked several times a day - if you have one of those questions, please see below!

Seers Village easy diary

My task is Seers Village easy and I need to get hold of cider!

Your first thought when seeing this task might be "What in Gielinor is cider and how do I get it?!" Cider can be found in a single shop on Etceteria, which is questlocked behind Royal Trouble, a quest only encountered in medium tier. That means you must brew the cider yourself, requiring 14 Cooking. This is a process which can take several days, but rule #4 accounts for timegated tasks and allows you to move on upon meeting every other requirement.

How do I make cider?

Cider can be brewed in either Keldagrim or Port Phasmatys. It is recommended to brew it in Keldagrim - access the city through the cave east of Rellekka and decline to start The Giant Dwarf when offered; subsequently you can use the minecarts in the Grand Exchange.

You will need 16 cooking apples to make four buckets of apple mush, and a pot of ale yeast - which can be purchased at the brewery.

Cooking apples can be obtained in three ways:

• By picking them from an Apple Tree that you've grown, requiring 27 Farming;
• Three cooking apples spawn in the Cooking Guild, requiring 32 Cooking to enter;
• As a 2/128 drop from giant spiders, such as those east of Lumbridge castle.

Make your way to the brewery and use your apples on the apple barrel with four empty buckets in your inventory, then use the fermenting vat to start brewing your cider.

Once your cider is brewing, it has a random chance to brew every 12 hours, typically taking between 2 and 5 days. You should also note that your batch can go bad, in which case you will have to gather another set of ingredients.

Do I really have to wait days before I can get a new task?

No, rule #4 states that when you have a timegated task such as this one, you are allowed to mark your task complete, when all other steps required for completion are done.

Bronze spear (for easy clue or making a Scarecrow)

Normally, creating a Bronze spear requires partial completion of the Tai Bwo Wannai Trio quest, and due to the Mining and Smithing rework, no monsters will drop them anymore. If you get a clue requiring this item without the quest completed to the point of making spears, a spawn is available a short way into Morytania's Abandoned Mine, which can be entered with no requirements.
