Slayer training

Slayer experience is gained when players kill monsters of Slayer assignments that were assigned to them in varying amounts by a Slayer Master. To get started, players should get assignments from the highest accessible levelled Slayer Master, since higher levelled Slayer Masters assign monsters that provide better experience rates, loot and more Slayer points.

General information

Access to masters

Generally speaking, you should obtain Slayer assignments from the Slayer Master that your combat level and Slayer level allow. Slaying the monsters assigned by higher-level Slayer master usually give more Slayer experience, although this is not always the case while advancing from Slayer level 1 to 120. The player can access better Slayer masters, this does not directly translate to more experience per hour. Maximising experience per hour is not simply about accepting assignments from the highest-level Slayer master currently available to the player.

The players have higher Slayer level and combat level can access more Slayer Masters, allowing them to choose the Slayer Master who suit their preferences, because different Slayer Masters have their own set of Slayer assignment. Each Slayer Master assigns Slayer assignments based on task weightings, which determines the chance the player is likely to get a specific assignment. Some Slayer assignments are shared among multiple Slayer Masters, but they may have different quantity range or task weighting.

Some players train Slayer using only one master. However, players typically train Slayer by switching between two masters. They do this by using one specific Slayer master that is appropriate for (or lower than) their level, and then switch to using a different higher-levelled Slayer master in order to take advantage of completion milestones.

Every 10th and 50th task, players earn 5 and 15 times the Slayer Master's standard amount of Slayer points. It is possible to complete the first 9 assignments with a low-level master and then switch to a higher-level master for the comparatively larger bonus. Higher-levelled masters will assign more difficult tasks than the typical Slayer Master would, either in monster assigned or quantity given, but the reward is a greater bonus of Slayer points.

Tasks assigned by Turael/Spria do not award Slayer points nor do they count towards the Slayer task count. Changing a task with Turael or Spria will reset the task count to zero, and therefore require the player to complete another four assignments to start receiving points again.

Upon completing tasks assigned by Mandrith, the player will be awarded a Wilderness slayer chest. Without dying, killing outside the Wilderness, or skipping tasks, the player will also be awarded one Reaper point.

Requirements or quests for accessing different Slayer masters and areas include:

Quest unlocks

For every 50 quest points the player has, they will be able to prefer or block an additional task; therefore, having a high amount of quest points is generally recommended.

Using Slayer points

Slayer points are used to purchase various rewards from any of the Slayer Masters. It is highly recommended to complete the Smoking Kills quest as soon as possible to receive full Slayer points from assignments and challenges. Players who have not completed the quest will only receive half of the Slayer points per task.

When training Slayer for better experience rate, this is generally an optimal order for spending Slayer reward points:

• Blocking assignments
• Slayer helmet unlocking and upgrades
• Preferring or extending assignments
• Extra unlocks (such as rings of slaying)
• Enabling the assignments of certain Slayer monsters

Cancelling and blocking assignments

Slayer assignments can be blocked at any Slayer Master for 100 slayer points; this requires the player's current assignment be the creatures they wish to block. Up to eight assigned monsters, or group of monsters such as grotworms or mutated jadinkos, can be blocked in this manner, with one block allowed every 50 quest points.

Cancelling the assignment costs 30 points. The monster must be the currently assigned task for it to be cancelled. In order to maximise efficiency, players should cancel tasks which are commonly assigned yet offer slow rates of Slayer experience, often due to issues such as the inability to use a cannon and/or a titan, low life points, or other factors, such as long animations or specialised killing methods. Please see the assignment summary section below to determine which tasks should be considered for the use of a block.

Players are recommended to use the cancel option as often as it can be used while maintaining a stable level of Slayer points. This will ensure that the player spends as much time as possible doing tasks which offer fast Slayer experience.

The task summary section of this guide will tell you which tasks to block, which to skip, and which to complete if you are running low on Slayer points. For example, a player who is running low on points may do a greater demon task even though these tasks are usually cancelled. These tasks also give out more ferocious rings if done in Kuradal's Dungeon.

If a toggleable task is on that the player does not wish to do, toggle the task off, as it is essentially a pseudo-block.

Extending assignments

Some assignments can be extended for Slayer points, which will greatly increase the number that you can slay if they give you that creature for a task. Only extend tasks that you generally do; it is a waste of points if you extend a task that you skip frequently or do not like.

Notable rewards

Reward	Cost	Reason
Learn how to craft rings of slaying	300	Various teleport locations reduce downtime between tasks.
Learn how to deliver killing blows quicker	400	Tasks such as gargoyles will not be slowed down from need to manually kill each gargoyle when they are at low health. A legendary pet with the Slayer Finisher ability may be used until this is unlocked.
Learn how to craft Slayer helmets	400	Slayer helmet is the most important piece of equipment.
Learn how to fuse rings to full Slayer helmets	500	Ferocious rings fused into helmets work at Kuradal's Dungeon, allowing a player to wear a ring whilst still benefiting from the damage boost of the ferocious ring.
Full slayer helmet upgrades	2,100	Increases the effectiveness of Slayer helmet. 4 upgrades.
Learn to move the souls in your personal slayer dungeon	1,000	Personal slayer dungeon would be one of the best source of Slayer monsters
Ushabti	20	Consumable, used to fill the Slayer Codex or take to the personal slayer dungeon

Other rewards are either quality of life improvements, unnecessary task unlocks or general consumables.

Tool belt

Players can add many Slayer items to their tool belt, such as a rock hammer and some special items (charming imp, bonecrusher, herbicide, seedicide, advanced gold accumulator). The latter items require 500 slayer points each to be able to be added to the tool belt.

Enabling the assignments

Assignments	Cost	Reason
Nightmare creatures	50	Nightmare creatures provide great Slayer XP rate.
Glacors	50	One of the slayer monsters to kill for profit.
Nihil	50	Summoning ingredients (aviansie talons, demon horn, vampyre fangs, icyene feather) for nihil familiar pouches are unique drops from nihils.

Combat equipment

General equipment

In general, use the best equipment available for the fastest rates. Additionally, power armour is more useful than tank armour. If available, always wear augmented gear when training Slayer.

Full slayer helmet variants are best-in-slot for any assignments. Before consuming the ensouled spectral lens, the helmet only boosts Melee, Ranged, and Magic attacks. After the helmet consumes the power of ensouled spectral lens, which makes the slayer helmet variants provide extra boost to Necromancy attacks, the slayer helmet would be the most suitable head slot equipment. After the slayer helmet stand is available and the helmet is placed there, it can be replaced by any power armour.

Cinderbane gloves are best-in-slot hand slot equipment for poisonable monsters. Most of the Slayer monsters are not immune to poison. The gloves can used with any weapon poison variants to amplify the poison damage. Otherwise, any power armour should be a replacement.

A demon horn necklace and its lesser variants in combination with a bonecrusher are best-in-slot neck slot equipment for slaying monsters that drop bones. The necklace restores prayer points when burying certain bones. In conjunction with an attuned ectoplasmator instead of bonecrusher, which monsters drop demonic ashes or are ghosts, the combination can quickly restore prayer points also, so that the players can keep prayers much longer without extra prayer restoration. After completing the quest Pieces of Hate, the holy wrench in the backpack or being worn boosts the amount of prayer points restored, but it occupies a backpack space or pocket slot.

A blood amulet of fury is great for recovering life points when slaying the monsters which do not drop bones and demonic ashes, or are not ghosts.

Luck rings are generally the best to use, as they offer bonuses to all combat styles, and increase the chance of getting a rare drop table drop or unique slayer monster drops.

The vampyrism aura and penance aura are ideal to use for low-intensity Slayer, by restoring life points and prayer points, respectively. The inspiration aura is an alternative choice on the assignments using with large area-of-effect abilities. The berserker aura, reckless aura, and maniacal aura would be backup options, they provides a overall damage boost to melee, ranged, and magic attacks but reduces the player's damage reduction. Hence, players will need more food to slay the monsters which deal high damage.

For all combat styles, two-handed weapons are preferred, as almost all area-of-effect abilities can be cast with two-handed weapons. For melee, halberd-type weapons are particularly effective for its area-of-effect damage potential.

Items that are not available in the section below should be replaced by lower-level items, preferring damage bonuses over tank bonuses.

Players should always use the style that their slayer assignment is weak to, with some exceptions which will be detailed in the slayer table.

Always use the highest level Slayer helmet that you have. Alternatively store it on the slayer helmet stand and then use any helmet you wish.

Some monsters are also susceptible to various weapons for additional damage and accuracy:

• For melee-classed enemies, use the Inquisitor staff as it switches to tier 94–97 damage along with tier 89–92 accuracy
• For magic-classed enemies, use the hexhunter bow as it switches to tier 94–97 damage along with tier 89–92 accuracy
• For ranged-classed enemies, use the terrasaur maul as it switches to tier 94–97 damage along with tier 89–92 accuracy
• Having the enchantment of affliction, enchantment of dispelling and enchantment of savagery increases the damage boost of above weapons from 12.5% to 17.5%.
• For fighting any type of abyssal demon, use the abyssal bane 2h sword as its stats equivalent to a weapon with tier 100 damage and tier 79 accuracy.

Notes

• Players who reach 100% hit chance should opt for the amulet of souls and dark magic aura if berserker aura (or magic or ranged version) is on cooldown.
• Players should use the best weapons they can for damage, and their best power armour.
• The noxious scythe, Masuta's warspear and Dragon Rider lance are far superior to other melee options due to their increased attack range and synergy with area of effect abilities.
  • Laniakea's spear is an alternative option on tasks where its accuracy is not a hindrance due to its unique passive effect, which can pair with cinderbane gloves and weapon poison+++, and its increased attack range.
• Cinderbane gloves are extremely useful against monsters that are not immune to poison, as they apply a poisonous effect to all monsters the player is in combat with.
• Ring of vigour switch is not needed after combined with warped gem, a reward from completion of Extinction quest.

Slayer helmet

The most essential piece of gear is the slayer helmet and its variants. It provides a 7.5-9.5% increase to damage and 12.5-14.5% increase to accuracy when slaying monsters on-task and incorporates all slayer headgear effects, including spiny helmet, face mask, earmuffs, nose peg.

Maximum of 5 fully charged ring of slaying and 6 fully charged ferocious rings can be stored in the slayer helmets with 60 Crafting and unlocking the ability for 500 Slayer points.

All slayer helmets can be stored on the slayer helmet stand in Anachronia base camp, granting its on-task damage and accuracy boost as a passive effect, allowing players to wear any style specific helmet. Ring of slaying and ferocious ring effects do not work with the helmet on the stand.

Miscellaneous full slayer helmet upgrades

Name	Upgrade cost	Notes
Learn how to fuse rings to full Slayer helmets	500 Slayer points	Level 60 Crafting and the quest Smoking Kills is required for this. Once purchased, this ability can add up to five fully charged rings of slaying (40 teleports) and up to six fully charged ferocious rings (30 teleports) to any full slayer helmet variant to gain access to their teleports.
Slayer helmet stand	Tier 3 Slayer Lodge	Grants passive slayer helmet bonuses across the game without needing to wear it when a helmet is placed on the stand.
Recoloured slayer helmets	4,000 Loyalty Points	Once purchased, its permanently unlocked and the player can swap between uncoloured, red, blue, green, or yellow. This is purely cosmetic and applicable to all versions of the full slayer helmet and above.

Cannons

The cannons is another incredibly useful piece of equipment, which is often used to speed up tasks. The "Restocking Cannon" perk purchased from Artisans' Workshop Reward Shop with 100 respect (with 150 extra in the upgrade progress) is quite essential to reduce the effort to maintain the cannons. Dwarf multicannon and kinetic cyclone are Ranged and Melee variant of the cannons respectively. The Oldak coil is a Magic variant which is further recommended to be used instead of the dwarf multicannon, if possible.

Unlocking dwarf multicannon upgrade kit, kinetic cyclone upgrade kit, and Oldak coil upgrade kit can permanently increase their damage output by 100%, 50%, and 50% respectively.

These are incredibly useful for dark beast and edimmu assignments, as they constantly cycle aggression towards the player whenever they are hit. Most tasks can generally be completed within the duration of the cannon (25 minutes), and even then maintenance is fairly low if it runs out of cannonballs, with a simple click to get it back up and running again. Some areas will prohibit the use of these cannons, so aggression potions should be used in their place if necessary.

Perks

Miscellaneous spells

NPC Contact (requires 67 Magic and the completion of Lunar Diplomacy) allows players to ask their Slayer Master for a new assignment remotely. This is only useful if you aren't planning on using Magic for a Slayer task, or have the Magic cape, as the cape provides the holder to switch their spellbook an unlimited number of times.

Summoning familiars

There are 3 categories for Summoning familiars that would assist in high-level slayer tasks—Combat, Beasts of Burden, and Healers.

Use of combat familiars like nihil (87 ) or steel titans (99 ) can increase your experience rates. Nihils are only needed for particularly troublesome tasks such as airuts and Kal'gerion demons, who possess high defence and low affinity values, as even the best equipment can still miss relatively often without resorting to an accuracy aura. Otherwise, steel titans should be used, as most monsters don't possess fairly high defence levels or low affinity values that would make it troublesome for their accuracy.

Beast of Burden familiars may be used at tasks where the additional inventory can prove helpful, such as ripper demons and camel warriors. Otherwise, magic notepaper should be used to cert drops from monsters such as airuts. Pack yaks are incredibly useful for most slayer tasks due to their ability to bank up to 240 items per hour, and adding 30 spaces to the player's inventory to fill with extra supplies and carry loot.

Commonly used Beasts of Burden

Familiar		requirement	Inventory slots	Duration (mins)
	Spirit terrorbird	52	12	36
	War tortoise	67	18	43
	Pack yak	96	30	64

Legendary pets are by far the best option for those who want to make some money off of slayer without hindering their experience rates much. These pets have 3 incredibly useful abilities: Scavenge, Beast of Burden, and Slayer Finisher. The Scavenge ability picks up items after killing enemies with a 10-15 second cooldown. The second ability makes it act as a Beast of Burden when a pouch is used on the familiar. The third ability is for Nechryael tasks for automatic kills if quick kills is not unlocked.

For most assignments, it is the most beneficial to use a Beasts of Burden, for its ability to store valuable loot, and withdraw food and prayer potions, effectively extending trips before needing to restock. Higher level Beasts of Burden last longer and have more inventory slots.

When extra inventory slots are not needed, healing familiars, e.g. bunyip (68 ) and unicorn stallion (88 ) or combat familiars, e.g. Ripper Demon (96 ) and steel titan (99 ) can be used instead.

Quick ways of recharging summoning points include the tribute stone near the Falador lodestone, and the Altar of War in War's Retreat.

Prayers

You should always use Turmoil/Anguish/Torment to increase your kills per hour. If you can afford them, Malevolence/Desolation/Affliction should be used as they provide greater bonuses. Soul Split, whether constantly active or via prayer flicking, will serve as the "food" for a majority of tasks, negating the need to bring actual food, though a few should be taken for emergencies.

For some tasks, notably dragons, you can use a bonecrusher in conjunction with demon horn necklace. This method negates the need for prayer potions during task. This can also be used with monsters that drop ashes via the use of the attuned ectoplasmator; though it will eat considerable profit due to the cost of ghostly essence.

Holy wrench passively increases the prayer points restored from potions. This includes super prayer, prayer renewal, and super restore potions. The wrench can be worn in the pocket slot to save backpack space.

Relic powers

All relic powers that increase dealt damage are useful for Slayer. The following relic powers are particularly useful for training Slayer:

Relic power		Effect	requirement
	Berserker's Fury	Deal up to +5.5% damage the lower your life points are below max.	56
	Luck of the Dwarves	You will always gain the effect of tier 4 luck.	83
	Fury of the Small	All adrenaline generating basic abilities generate +1% adrenaline.	97
	Persistent Rage	You will generate adrenaline outside of combat.	98
	Death Note	Makes all bone and ash drops noted. The effects of the attuned ectoplasmator, bonecrusher, and prayer urns take precedence over Death Note. If the bonecrusher upgrade is active, any bones noted by the relic will automatically be placed in the backpack.	108
	Inspire Love	You will gain 2% more XP when training support skills.	116
	Slayer Introspection	When requesting a new slayer assignment, you will have a choice between the minimum and maximum assignment amounts.	119

Potions

See also: Calculator:Herblore/Combination potions

Item		Usage
	Overload	Overloads boost your kills per hour significantly and should be used at all times. Either holy overloads or aggroverload/elder overloads with super prayer renewal potion. It is not necessary to use elder overloads, though a player may choose to if they have a surplus or wish to increase their kill speed.
	Super antifire or searing overload potion or overload salve variants	Super antifire or searing overload potions are necessary for dragon assignments as using a dragonfire shield or its variants would reduce kills per hour.
	Wyrmfire potion or overload salve variants	Wyrmfire potion which is also included in any salve combination potions is needed for living wyvern assignment.
	Weapon poison (+) (++) (+++)	Weapon poison+++ can be used to great effect on most slayer monsters and should be used in conjunction with cinderbane gloves and kwuarm incense sticks if the player has them.
	Aggression potion or aggroverload variants	Aggression potion can be used if not using aggroverload to gather up monsters faster and use area of effect abilities in places where monsters are not aggressive or when the player intends to stay for a long period of time. This is recommended for corrupted creatures and soul devourers, who are found in large numbers and can be easily stacked.
	Prayer restoring potions	Potions such as super restore or super prayer renewal are relatively easy to obtain. Therefore standard prayers or Ancient Curses should always be used while maintaining prayer points.

Useful items

Drop cleaners

Drop cleaners are useful and, arguably, essential items to bring when training Slayer. Drop cleaners automatically convert specific monster drops into experience, or automatically add specific monster drops to the backpack. All drop cleaners work when either worn, in the backpack or in the tool belt, and have the option to customise its settings.

Items modifying Slayer assignments

Some items or effects modify your current Slayer assignments while activated. Some monsters can only be damaged while having them assigned as a Slayer assignment, and when players are hunting for their unique drops they may use one or more of these items to get more kills from one assignment. However, when players do not like their current assignment they may want to shorten and use an item to end the assignment sooner.

Teleports		Usage
	Slayer cape	The Slayer cape's perk allows for fast transport to Lanikeia or Morvran (for Morvran, upgraded ferocious rings also work) and is the fastest and best option when obtaining a new task. Players can use the same item to quickly get to Kuradal's Dungeon.
	Dungeoneering cape or hoardstalker ring	The Dungeoneering cape's perk can be used which has a teleport option to any resource dungeon and can be convenient for reaching some otherwise remote slayer monsters, such as the Dragontooth Island resource dungeon. A charged hoardstalker ring has the same teleport options. The ring comes with 8 charges and can be recharged for 10,000 Dungeoneering tokens, while the cape has unlimited use. This is very useful for tasks such as hill giants, moss giants, fire giants, blue dragons, iron dragons, steel dragons, mithril dragons, celestial dragons, hellhounds, lesser demons, black demons, Kal'gerion demons, polypore creatures, and edimmu.
	Sixth-Age circuit	After completion of the Fate of the Gods and all optional quests for The World Wakes, Juna will give you the Sixth-Age circuit, a fast transportation method to the World Gate, from which you can reach Muspah, Nihil, Nightmares, Crystal Shapeshifters, and rune dragons.
	Ring of slaying	A ring of slaying provides one of the fastest means of transportation to the Slayer Tower, where creatures like abyssal demons reside. Slayer masks also provide a daily number of teleports to their relevant creature's locations. Obtained from a Slayer Master for Slayer points.
	Fairy rings	Grants quick access to many high-level Slayer tasks. Players must have started A Fairy Tale II - Cure a Queen to use the rings with a Lunar/Dramen staff. However, the staff is no longer required after completing A Fairy Tale III - Battle at Ork's Rift.
	Ferocious rings	Can be used to teleport to Kuradal's Dungeon and is obtained by killing monsters in said dungeon.
	House Teleport or Teleport to house or chipped variants	Players can strategically place their house where there are no other handy means of teleportation. Completing Love Story allows players to teleport to any house portal by chipping teleport tablets.
	Karamja gloves 3 or gloves 4	Provides a teleport to Shilo Village, allowing quick access to Duradel/Lapalok; requires completion of the hard Karamja achievements
	Enchanted lyre	It can teleport to the Waterbirth Island after completion of the hard Fremennik achievements. There are dagannoths where you can complete dagannoth assignments.
	Juju teleport spiritbag or witchdoctor mask	Both can be used to teleport to the Herblore Habitat, directly east of Shilo Village.
	Obelisk shard or portable obelisk	Teleports the player to a random Wilderness obelisk. If the player has completed the hard Wilderness achievements, they will be able to select which obelisk to teleport to. It is convenient to reach lava strykewyrm, hydrix dragons, abyssal demons, greater demon ash lords and berserkers, and Kal'gerion demons.
	Wilderness sword 1 or sword 2 and above	Teleports the player to the Wilderness herb patch (tier 1) and Forinthry dungeon (tier 2).
	Drakan's medallion	It can teleport to the Darkmeyer and Meiyerditch laboratory after completion of The Branches of Darkmeyer. There are vyrewatches in Darkmeyer for vyrewatch assignment. There are also zombie hands and skeletal hands in the laboratory to complete crawling hand assignments.

	Passage of the abyss	It can teleport to the locations for up to six different types of teleportation jewellery. It can store ferocious rings and rings of slaying.

Lunar spells - NPC Contact allows the player to talk to any Slayer Master without travelling to them. Spellbook Swap grants access to non-tablet teleports like Trollheim Teleport and Ghorrock Teleport from the Ancient Magicks book. Lunar Diplomacy is required to use Lunar spells, and Desert Treasure to use Ancient Magicks.

Assignment summary

This table is not indicative of a monster's weakness or other irrelevant data. This table instead serves as a reference point for optimal task completion. Slayer rates are calculated using recommended equipment and Revolution++.

This table is purely based on maximal xp/hr rate. The actual xp/hr rates will vary based on skill/equipment and how active one is when doing these tasks. Players are suggested to make an informed decision based on which tasks they prefer based on their pros and cons. Some of the faster tasks may be done to get slayer points quickly.

Task	Slayer XP/hr	Use	Slayer lvl	Notes	Pros	Cons	Priority
Gemstone dragons	1400k Hydrix	Ranged	95-101	Kill hydrix dragons at the Gemstone cavern, or place one in the Sunken Pyramid for AFK training.	Use notepaper + enhanced bonecrusher to collect bones, or demon horn necklace and bonecrusher combo for prayer restore, or Scrimshaw of sacrifice for amazing experience	Expensive to use mechanised chins. Dangerous specs if not avoided, Hydrix dragons impair adrenaline, slowing down kills. Need antifire potions.	Prefer
Ripper demons	Darklight 700k	Melee	96	Use upgraded Darklight and have low ping to dodge instant-kill attack.	Extremely high experience per hour, especially when killed in the Wilderness. Chance of receiving cursed amascut sand, which is quite valuable, along with other valuable drops. Miner's journal drops for the master quest cape. Good money when using Binding contracts.	Potentially difficult and lethal task for beginners, requiring players to stay focused to avoid death. Players can be swarmed in the Wilderness.	Prefer
Soul devourers	680k	Melee Magic if killing imperial guard akh or Magister	105-117	Use halberd either salawa, feline, scarab or crocodile akhs. Gorilla akhs are not recommended due to having high health, less experience and lucrative drops compared to the other akhs below it. The latter three may be more difficult to AFK due to various mechanics (felines and crocodiles have high-hitting special attacks while scarabs apply Vulnerability but are almost always guaranteed to be empty. Imperial guard akhs are discouraged as they cannot be AFK'ed due to being able to use highly damaging abilities. The Magister may be killed for more experience but players must account for the price of keys and short-term profit loss.	Extremely high experience per hour. Use of an aggression potion and AoE abilities can ensure high kills per hour. Has a different loot mechanic than most other monsters, making it slightly more laid back. Potentially good drops including Key to the Crossing , vital spark , Corrupted gem. Bring vital spark drop enhancers when doing this task.	Require a Feather of ma'at to be killed (if not killing the Magister). When using aggression potions, the player may get overwhelmed. The corruption mechanic.	Prefer
Shadow creatures	680k Manifest	Melee	1	Use 5 Manifest shadows in personal slayer dungeon Sunken Pyramid with an aggression potion or in the Amlodd district in Prifddinas.	Extremely high experience rates per hour. Chance to get part of the Penny pet	Drops not as good as most other monsters, and players can be overwhelmed with use of an aggression potion.	Prefer
Nightmare creatures	650k	Melee/Mage	80	Use halberd ranged weapon in Sunken Pyramid, aggression potion increases experience rates but also increases the danger from their ball attack.	Extremely high experience rates per hour. Frequently drop Muspah spine which may be used to create the Nightmare muspah pouch for profit. Valuable alchable drops.	Special attack that may kill an inattentive player. Difficult to fight multiple at once due to significant risk of getting overwhelmed.	Prefer
Creatures of the Lost Grove	610k Golem Legacy 1324k	Mage/Melee	104-108	Kill golems or bulbous crawlers for higher experience rates. Enhanced devoted perk is highly recommended. Legacy blood barrage moss golems with a cannon and aggro pots to get fast afk experience.	Profit/experience rates are reversed - vinecrawlers provide the least experience but most valuable drops, while golems provide the most experience but least valuable drops. Bulbous crawlers are a mix of the two, with fairly equal experience and profit rates. All monsters in this category can drop cinderbane gloves, the ancient elven ritual shard and a torn grimoire page.	May require a significant amount of food as all monsters in this category can hit extremely high (over 3,500 damage in a single hit).	Prefer
Acheron mammoths	600k	Melee	96	Extremely fast and profitable task. Use Soul Split and stab weapons. Dodge ranged and charge attacks (Devotion/Debilitate helps).	High experience rates and profitable task due to drops of Mammoth tusk and Cursed amascut sand.	Potentially difficult and lethal task for beginners, as players can be easily killed by charges and ranged attacks which can deal very high damage.	Prefer
Corrupted creatures	580k (Worker)	Melee	88-103	Extremely fast task. Use a unicorn stallion or a scrimshaw of vampyrism with Soul Split flicking to restore any lost health. Players may choose between scorpions, scarabs or workers as all of these use melee and can be drawn in with aggression potions. Other corrupted mobs cannot be easily AFK'ed as ranged or magic is present, preventing clumping.	Extremely high experience rates per hour. Use of an aggression potion and AoE abilities can ensure high kills per hour. Has a different loot mechanic than most other monsters, making it slightly more laid back. Potentially good drops including Key to the Crossing , vital spark , Corrupted gem. Bring vital spark drop enhancers when doing this task.	Require a Feather of ma'at to be killed. When using aggression potions, the player may get overwhelmed. corruption mechanic	Prefer
Elves	560k 1200k (chinning)	Melee	1	Use halberd to fight Iorwerth scouts and guards for elf tasks. Killing them while Voice of Seren is active adds extra experience. Properly lure Cadarn elves using Demoralize and Rout chin with a combat dummy for fast afk experience.		Both scouts and guards can use bleeds and stuns and can disable protection prayers/deflect curses.	Prefer
Living wyverns	530k	Melee	96	Extremely fast and moderately profitable task. Use melee with a blood nihil and scrimshaw of vampyrism as ranged/magic is significantly slower and players take more damage. It is highly recommended to fight them in melee distance regardless of equipment used, because the wyvern's melee attack is weaker and easier to predict, whereas the magic and ranged attacks are nearly impossible to predict and the attack immediately deals damage before the projectiles even hit the player. Kill wyverns until 90% freeze then return to a fire to warm up.		Heavy damage inflicted by both the monsters, can often be overwhelmed. Stay in melee range as they deal considerably less damage.	Prefer
Crystal shapeshifters	500k	Melee/Ranged	80	Best done with 5 in Sunken Pyramid using aggression potions and a halberd. Watch out for bleeds.	High experience task, fairly valuable drops. Drop Tarddian crystals, which are used to make crystal armour, which provides a damage boost against them.	Hybrid monsters that adapt to the player's combat style, attacking with what the player is weakest against along with a mildly annoying roll attack that deals moderately high damage. See here for additional information.	Prefer
Greater demons	1000k (Berserkers) 180k (K'ril)	Ranged/Mage	1	Skip if not killing K'ril Tsutsaroth or Berserkers/Ash Lords	Killing Berserkers or Ashlord is recommended.	Each Berserker or Ash Lord killed counts as 8 kills towards completing the task. Although kills are often slow, the very high experience per kill makes up for it. It is possible to safespot Berserkers using the slope just North of the path leading to the entrance to the Dragonkin Laboratory. When killing K'ril, only K'ril and one of his minions count as greater demons, resulting in a slow task. Recommended to have an active Totem of Intimidation before fighting K'ril.	Prefer
Airut	470k	Melee	92	Extremely fast and profitable task with tier 90+ melee, scrimshaw of vampyrism and a blood nihil.	High experience and profit task. Task can be forced via the Mask of airut. Use of a bonecrusher and a demon horn necklace, along with auto-sanctifier, also yields significant prayer experience. The Spring cleaner is highly recommended for salvage drops. Frequent drops of sharks which may be used if food is needed.	Special attacks dealing rapid and high damage, which can overwhelm players using aggression potions. Can also increase their defence as their health lowers which makes them harder to hit without tier 90+ weapons and a nihil.	Do
Nodon dragonkin	450k Nodon artificer Nodon guard Legacy 600k	Ranged (Use dragonbane arrows) Mage (Use air spells)	1,92	Nodon artificers recommended as their spawns are closer allowing for easier use of AOE abilities and mechanised chinchompas. Legacy Blood Barrage is 600k phr and AFK	Nearby siege engines can be repaired and used for faster kills. Can use bonecrusher + demon horn necklace for unlimited prayer. Battlefield abilities can make kills easier.	Has special attacks although they can easily be avoided or tanked and healed off via soul split.

Kal'gerion demons	440k	Melee	90	Recommended to use upgraded Darklight for fast kill rates. Can be killed at The Shadow Reef as there are four respawnable demons in fairly close proximity.		Very high defence even with best-in-slot gear.	Do
Abyssal demons	400k (demons) 1800k (lords)	Melee (halberd) Ranged (chinchompas) Melee (beasts) Magic (lords)	85	Extremely fast task at demons and savages, although at the cost of less experience. Beasts and lords provide more experience and better drops.	Can be forced via Mask of the abyss. Very fast task with minimal effort when killing demons, savages or beasts. Any monster can be afk'ed.	Beasts and lords require semi-afk as they can deal high damage and overwhelm the player. When killing lords in the Wilderness, players must also deal with a beast (thus lowering overall rates) at the cannon spot to fight 5 lords.	Do
Camel warriors	390k	Melee	96	Mirages slow down kill time but can be dealt with easily.	Can drop cursed amascut sand.	Desert heat if not killing in the Sunken Pyramid (unless Crocodile Tears is completed) and fairly spread out spawns. Also considerably tedious compared to the other raptor mobs, with very slow kills and lots of food generally being needed.	Do
Stalker creatures	370k Soulgazer Magic 682k	Ranged	71,99	Fairly slow task. 350k/phr using animate dead, cryptbloom, dual wield with greater chain and greater conc blast, and vamp aura fairly afk, use guthix staff eof to lower the defence and affinity of elite soulgazers. Don't forget fellstalk and dwarf weed sticks.	Chance for Veil-ripper Ozharakha, which has guaranteed drop of hexhunter bow.	Relatively high health and damage. Elite soulgazers use considerably more food compared to normal ones.	Do
Edimmu	360k	Melee	90	Extremely fast and profitable task, use a halberd to kill edimmu faster. Requires 115 Dungeoneering to enter Edimmu Resource Dungeon.	Very profitable task. Affected by the Salve amulet and its enhanced version. Use of Spring cleaner, Attuned ectoplasmator, and Auto-sanctifier recommended. Elite edimmu has chance of dropping Eddy. Use a Statius warhammer eof for elites.	Use of cannon over aggression potions is preferred. Cost of cannonballs can add up. Players may be overwhelmed by numerous edimmu if using a cannon.	Do
Ganodermic creatures	360K Ganodermic beasts	Mage (Use fire spells)	95	Very fast task with an oldak coil in the bottom level of east part of the dungeon through agility shortcut (resource/main dungeon has too many ganodermic runts).	Can be forced via the Mask of the Ganodermic once every three days. Drops big bones which allow the use of a bonecrusher and demon horn necklace to replace prayer potions.	Clustered with ganodermic runts who have less valauble drops.	Do
Chaos giants	350k	Melee	1	Decent drops, fast and AFK task if a cannon is used with a halberd.	Use of a bonecrusher + demon horn necklace provides unlimited prayer for healing and curses.	Cost of cannonballs can add up quickly.	Do
Dark beasts	340k	Mage/Ranged	90	Extremely fast and profitable task. Can use cannon within for a faster task at all locations except Kuradal's Dungeon. Stronger dark beasts in the hobgoblin mine for slightly better experience.	Can be forced via the Mask of gloom.

Can be forced via the Mask of the Automatons once every three days.	Special attack may happen randomly for any automaton within the area and hit very hard. This can be avoided by taking off AOE abilities (including Corruption shot/blast) as any automaton that has been targeted immediately sets off their special attack timer, even if they haven't been hit.	Do
Ice strykewyrms	310k	Mage (Use fire spells)	93	Use fire spells and a fire/kiln/igneous cape for increased damage output	Can be forced via the Mask of white wyrm. Extremely fast to kill due to the increased damage output from capes and fire spells.	Require a fire cape, Kiln cape, or Igneous cape to do any damage, if the perk to damage them without either cape has not been bought. Elemental spells other than fire deal reduced damage.	Do
Dinosaurs (cluster task)	360k Feral Dinosaur	Melee	90 - 114	Use halberd with a cannon and aggression pot. Pray protect from melee and use Turmoil/Malevolence and use a scrimshaw of vampyrism.

Potentially difficult and lethal task for beginners. When using aggression potions and cannon, the player may get overwhelmed.	Do
Dragons (cluster task)	1400k Hydrix	Mage/Ranged	1, 95 - 101	Prefer if going for hydrix dragons, refer to gemstone dragons task for method.

Creatures of Daemonheim (Cluster task)	360k (Edimmu) 440k (Kal'gerion demons)	Melee/Ranged	1	Should only be blocked if not fighting Edimmu or Kal'gerion demons, since both of these count towards these task. Frost dragons also count towards the task.			Do
Demons (cluster task)	700k	Melee	85 - 96	Can kill any demon, however, should only be done if fighting ripper, abyssal (all slayer requirement) or Kal'gerion demons. At 96+ Slayer, preferring this task is recommended since it is effectively an additional chance at rolling a Ripper Demon task.			Do

Profitable task due to boots (Steadfast boots, Ragefire boots, Glaiven boots) and Shards of Armadyl.	Long and slow kills due to mechanics. Special attack can deal a lot of damage.	Block / Skip
Tormented demons	130k	Melee	1	Requires switches and significantly more effort compared to other tasks if not using the Legacy Mode strategy.	Profitable task due to dragon crossbow limbs drop. Can be AFKed in the Sunken Pyramid on Legacy Mode.	Slow kills due to the demons' prayer switching.	Block / Skip
Nihil	100k 327k chin	Ranged	76	Good drops but somewhat lacklustre experience rates if not chinning; if chinning, do task. Fast experience rates, and 580 kphr if you aggro all and chin them properly	Profitable task due to nihil parts, especially when chinning	Dangerous to aggro more than one at a time.	Block / Skip
Aquanites	50k	Melee	78	Bad task.	If combined with the use of seedicide, a good amount of farming experience can be gained.	Generally poor drops and very low experience per hour.	Block / Skip

Slayer Codex and Sunken Pyramid

Players with at least level 99 Slayer can fill their Slayer Codex. It is advised to invest slayer points and time to collect at least 100 different monster souls. For every 20 souls collected, slayer helmets grant a +1% gain (up to 5% at 100 souls) to Slayer experience, effectively being an experience boosting item.

In addition to the Slayer Codex, players with at least 99 Slayer have access to a Sunken Pyramid. The following slayer assignments are recommended to fill the three rooms available, or a player can access another player's dungeon if they have a needed room setup.

Assignment	Reason	Recommended amount of spawns
Muspah	Two additional spawns (the Cradle only possesses three somewhat slow spawns). Place in the small room.	5
Ripper Demons	With only 1 Ripper Demon, it removes the <35% player's life points aggression mechanic, meaning that no other demons will become aggressive towards the player when health drops below 35%. This also allows for safe use of AoE abilities. A lone ripper demon can also be found just south of the Mage Arena and is quite safe.	1
Crystal Shapeshifters	Easier grouping and use of AoE abilities. Place in the small room.	5
Shadow creatures	Easier time attacking multiple shadows at once and use of AoE. Best to put Manifest Shadows in your dungeon as they are greater experience/kill than other shadow creatures. Place in the small room.	5
Hydrix dragons	Easily AFKable by standing under the spawn point, as the dragon uses relatively weak melee and magic attacks that can be easily healed off of via Soul Split.	1

In addition to the slayer monsters, some Sunken Pyramid rooms benefit from prayer restoring monsters via the use of a Bonecrusher and Demon horn necklace.

Monster	Reason	Recommended amount of spawns
Mogre	1950 LP, has the least life points but does not aggro even with aggression potion, not good for AFK	2 - 4
Suqah	2650 LP, least life points among aggro options	2 - 4
Sophanem Crocodile	2900 LP, drops only big bones, great for area looting	2 - 4
Hill Giant	3200 LP, good for Champion's Challenge	2 - 4

Alternative methods of gaining experience

Apart from general bonuses, such as Treasure Hunter lamps and stars, special event experience rewards, and Tears of Guthix, the following methods award Slayer XP:

Methods	Notes
Phoenix Lair	500 (5,000 for the first completion)
Wild jade vine	2,500 experience every 19 hours.
Daily slayer challenge	Equal experience to that of a large XP lamp.
Wilderness Warbands	Slaying the warband leader rewards Slayer experience equal to half of that given by the master jack of trades aura (capping at level 99 Slayer) based on your current (unboosted) Slayer level.
Corrupted scarabs	Squashing these grants experience equivalent to a small XP lamp divided by five, with the experience per scarab dropping as you proceed. Bursting corrupted scarabs on a daily basis can give significant Slayer experience which adds up over time. The experience and reputation gained from the scarabs scales with the player's level but decreases with the amount of scarabs squished. This decrease resets at 00:00 UTC.
God Statues	Each statue grants experience equivalent to a medium XP lamp provided the Slayer experience option is chosen and the fanatic is killed.
Killing Bork	Bork may be killed daily after completing the miniquest The Hunt for Surok, granting 1,500 experience, which increases to up to 8,000 after completing the quest The Mighty Fall and completing the hard Varrock achievements.
Killing the Skeletal horror	The Skeletal horror may be killed weekly after completing the Rag and Bone Man and Fur 'n Seek wish list. Killing it grants 10,000 experience the first time, and 9,125-15,125 afterwards, depending on your Slayer level.
Player-owned port	Complete special experience voyages with the Assassin, Honing her Craft, granting 10,000-35,000 Slayer experience depending upon distances travelled, unlocked regions and how often the Assassin visits the port.
The Arc	After unlocking the Assassin in your player-owned port, you can speak to her (Ling) in Aminishi after completing the Impressing the Locals quest to receive contracts. When spoken to, she will give the player Slayer contracts to kill the Acolytes of Seiryu on the island. She can hand out three contracts per day (shared with Sojobo and Hubbub), but this can be increased to up to seven by buying "Contracts per day increase" from Waiko Reward Shop. If you have main island contracts disabled on the board by Sojobo, the game will claim you do not have the requirements for any of Ling's contracts. The Acolytes of Seiryu in the Temple of Aminishi also count towards the contract so it's best if you complete it within there. You can also get Dungeoneering experience and the Elite Dungeon rewards along with the Slayer experience.
Big Game Hunter	Successfully hunting a dinosaur on Anachronia will give some Slayer experience depending on the tier of the dinosaur. It also requires at least 75 Hunter.
