Falador Diary
Falador Diary
Diary
The Falador Achievement Diary is set within Falador, Rimmington, Taverley and Burthorpe. The rewards are claimed from an NPC named Sir Rebral who can be found within the White Knights' Casle in the center of Falador.
The Falador Diary spans Falador, Rimmington, Taverley, Burthorpe, Mudskipper Point and Port Sarim, and reaches into the Motherlode Mine, Crafting Guild, Dwarven Mines and Asgarnia Ice Dungeon. Sir Rebral hands out the rewards in the White Knights' Castle courtyard. It is a good mid-game diary, though the elite tier's 88 Runecraft, 91 Farming and White Knight Master rank are serious grinds.
The Falador shield 1 to 4 is the reward line. Each tier improves the daily Prayer restore from 25% once, to 50% once, to 100% once, then 100% twice a day. The hard shield also carries a Giant Mole locator and notes the Mole's skins and claws. Hard unlocks a bank chest at the Crafting Guild, while medium adds 10% more Farming XP at the Falador patch and more medium clue scrolls from Falador guards. Elite makes the Falador tree patch disease-free and grants a larger amethyst mine and better pay-dirt ore.
Prioritise the medium tier for the farming bonus, then the hard tier for the Crafting Guild bank and Mole locator. The elite tier is mostly for ironmen and skillers chasing the disease-free tree patch and amethyst access. Ironmen need 59 Smithing and 59 Fletching, or Ancient Cavern access, for the mith grapple, and White Knight Master means about 1,300 Black Knight kills.

Falador Diary FAQ
01What are the Falador Diary rewards?
Every completed tier of the Falador Diary unlocks permanent rewards. The signature reward is the Falador shield (tiers 1-4): a prayer bonus, teleports around Falador, and noted ore and bar drops. Each tier also grants an antique lamp, and the elite tier adds the strongest region bonuses. Rewards are claimed from Sir Rebral.
02How do I upgrade the Falador shield?
The Falador shield upgrades through the four diary tiers: Easy unlocks tier 1, Medium tier 2, Hard tier 3, and Elite tier 4. Complete every task in a tier to claim its upgrade from Sir Rebral. Higher tiers keep the lower tier bonuses and add stronger effects.
03What is the Falador shield 4 reward?
Falador shield 4 restores full Prayer points twice a day, keeps the Giant Mole locator, notes the Mole's skins and claws, gives a bank chest at the Crafting Guild, makes the Falador tree patch disease-free, and unlocks a larger amethyst mine and slightly better pay-dirt ore rolls.
04How many Black Knight kills are needed for the Falador elite diary?
The elite task requires buying a white 2h sword from Sir Vyvin at the rank of White Knight Master, which needs a Black Knight kill score of 1,300, plus completion of Wanted! and 1,920 coins.
05Do I need to complete all quests for the Falador diary?
Not for the lower tiers. The elite task performs a Cape of Accomplishment or Quest point cape emote at the top of the White Knights' Castle, which needs all quests, all music tracks, or level 99 in any skill.
06What are the requirements for the Falador Diary achievement diary?
Each Falador Diary diary has four tiers — Easy, Medium, Hard, and Elite — with higher tiers requiring higher skill levels, more quests, and tougher combat encounters. Expand each tier on this page to see the exact skill and quest requirements before you start.
07What are the rewards for the Falador Diary diary?
Every completed tier unlocks permanent rewards: the Easy tier grants basic utility, Medium upgrades your diary gloves, Hard improves teleport access and drop rates, and Elite grants the strongest bonuses in the region. Use this checklist to see every reward as you complete tiers.
08Which Falador Diary diary tier should I aim for first?
For most accounts the Medium tier is the first big milestone — the diary gloves upgrade saves inventory space and the teleports make future training much faster. Ironmen should prioritise diaries early because gloves, lamps, and teleport unlocks are account-wide and never require trading.
09Do achievement diary rewards matter for ironmen?
Yes. Diary rewards are some of the best account-wide unlocks in the game for ironmen: gloves, free daily teleports, clue scroll rewards, and the elite bonus drops. Most ironman progression guides schedule diaries early for exactly this reason.
