Reason RSPS Starter Guide: Perks and Progression

Reason starts with a permanent pace decision, an auto-upgrading training amulet, and task-driven perk progression. Use the starter equipment until level 70 combat, then stack newcomer, perk, achievement, and Slayer objectives.

Choose one of four difficulty rates

Easy uses 100x experience with no drop-rate bonus. Intermediate uses 25x experience with a 10% bonus. Hard uses 10x experience with an 18% bonus. Extreme uses 3x experience with a 30% bonus.

The home-bank difficulty changer allows three changes. Changing difficulty resets all stats while preserving other account progression. Easy is the learning mode; Extreme is the long-term drop-rate mode.

  • Easy: 100x XP, 0% drop-rate bonus.
  • Intermediate: 25x XP, 10% bonus.
  • Hard: 10x XP, 18% bonus.
  • Extreme: 3x XP, 30% bonus.

Equip the training amulet to level 70

The training amulet automatically upgrades all three starter combat sets as levels rise: melee advances from iron to rune, Magic from ghostly robes to mystic, and Ranged from leather to black dragonhide. It also carries Fury-like stats.

Use the central teleport nexus or `::train` and raise the preferred combat style to at least level 70. `::commands` opens the command list.

Start Perk Master tasks north of the bank

Reason contains 51 perks. The Perk Master north of the home bank assigns skilling and PvM tasks that award points used to unlock and improve them.

Begin with easy or medium skilling tasks, then move into PvM tasks as combat improves. Core upgrades include Skilled Ranger and Double Tap for Ranged, Speedy Strikes for melee, and Arcane Enhancement for Magic.

Complete every newcomer task

Open the newcomer task book or type `::newcomer`. Completing the full list awards the Ring of Reason, which provides a 2% drop-rate bonus.

Claim achievement and collection-log rewards while completing the newcomer route. Clue caskets obtained from Fishing also advance clue collection logs.

Stack Slayer, dailies, and Reason Points

Take Slayer tasks while completing combat perk tasks. Use `::dailies` for daily objectives. This overlap produces combat levels, perk points, Slayer progress, achievements, and drops at the same time.

Reason Points come from daily tasks, level 99 milestones, 200 million experience milestones, and combat NPCs above level 100. The cannon is the standard long-term Reason Points purchase.
