Starting

The Falador Achievement Diary contains tasks that can be completed by low, medium, and high level players.

What to wear is for you to decide, using your best judgement. Only selected tasks directly involve combat, so armour will not be necessary except for very low levels, who may want defence against ordinary monsters that exist around the towns. If you were going to fight a monster you would want armour and weapons. However, if you do not plan to do anything involving fighting and will be in a safe area, then lightweight clothing is suggested. (For more information on monster fighting, view the guides in our Monster Hunting guides.)

The Explorer Ring 3 reward from the Lumbridge Achievement Diary will be a big help in this diary, since the Cabbage Teleport brings you to Falador's farm and a convenient walk to Port Sarim.

Before you can begin fulfilling your Achievement Diary, you need to talk to any one of three NPCs. The following list shows the three NPCs and their locations:

  • Redbeard Frank: Port Sarim, outside the pub
  • Chemist: Rimmington, house on the coast west of the town
  • Squire: Falador, courtyard of the White Knight's Castle

Once you've spoken to one of them, your Diary won't look any different. However, the first time you complete a task in the diary, the entry will turn yellow (showing that you've started the Diary, similar to the quest list.) If you click on the Diary, it pulls up a parchment list in your main game window. You can scroll through it to see the complete list of tasks.

Every time you finish a Diary task, you will get a message in your chat window stating that you've completed a task and it's been recorded in your Achievement Diary. Open the Diary and you'll see a red line has been marked through that task.

Once you've started the Diary, you can perform the tasks in any order and at any level (Easy, Medium or Hard) that you wish. In order to help players plan effectively, a map showing the location for each task is available. It shows a code number for each task, which matches the lists in this guide. Check the map, bring what you need, and you're on your way!

E6 Enter the mole’s lair under Falador Park. None Spade, light source
Use a spade on one of the many mole mounds in Falador Park, which is in the middle of Falador. Be sure your lantern is lit. The exit is at the south end of the lair (bringing you out near the chainmail shop, another task!), so if you'd prefer to avoid the Giant Mole, bring a teleport. You do not need to go anywhere near the Giant Mole to cross off this task, but if you'd like information about it, check our Giant Mole Hunting Guide.

Bring air talisman and silver tiara to the Air Altar south of Falador's walls. Use your talisman on the Mysterious ruins (for the exact spot click here). Inside, use the talisman on the altar to make an air tiara.
E13 Pop a party balloon. None may need 1000 gp
Go to Party Pete's castle in northeast Falador. If nobody is already having a party, it costs 5000 gp to pull the lever to make the balloons drop.
E14 Recharge your Prayer points at the altar south-west of Port Sarim. None None
Go to the chapel and click on the altar. If your prayer is already full, turn on a prayer to reduce it a bit first.
E15 Take the boat to Entrana. None Bank space for all your combat items
To take the boat, speak to any Monk of Entrana on the dock south of Port Sarim pub. They will not transport you if you are wearing any combat gear, so no armour, no weapons (nothing you can wield in weapon slot), no gear that has stat boosting value.
