The Seers' Village achievements are a group of Area Tasks subcategories relating to Seers' Village, Catherby, and its surrounding area. These subcategories are: Easy Seers' Village, Medium Seers' Village, Hard Seers' Village, and Elite Seers' Village.
The NPCs for the easy, medium, hard, and elite subcategories are indicated by a 
icon on the minimap and the world map. These are any Seer in Seers' Village, Stankers at the coal truck mining site, and Sir Kay in Camelot, respectively.
The rewards for this set of subcategories include the Seer's headband and experience lamps giving a total of 236,500 experience in skills. A player must obtain each Seer's headband in chronological order (e.g. medium achievements must be completed before the reward for hard achievements is available).
If the headband is lost, it can be retrieved from the NPC who gave the player the headband; any Seer for the Seer's headband 1, Stankers for the Seer's headband 2, and Sir Kay for the Seer's headband 3 and 4.
This set of achievement subcategories is required for the Task Master achievement of the completionist cape.
Completing all achievements in this set of subcategories gives a total of 470 RuneScore.
There are 4 meta achievements in the Area Tasks category related to this subcategory (showing 4).

In the dungeon level 64 poison spiders can be encountered, their poison can halt the orb making process, resulting in orbs being made but the achievement not being completed.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- When given the poison chalice, King Arthur replies, You chose ...poorly. This is an Indiana Jones reference to the Holy grail, specifically referencing a scene in the movie The Last Crusade.
- On the day of release, the spoilers were: Spoilers do not fit with the Seers' desire to predict the future more... esoterically. Please check back tomorrow.
- If a player had completed the Holy Grail quest before talking to Galahad, the player will automatically exclaim: I've returned the Holy grail to Camelot and Galahad will congratulate the player. The same exchange could happen before the achievements, as a player-chosen interaction option.
- Rewards were significantly updated on 10 February 2009. The rewards were improved in response to complaints from players.
