Overview

Slayer is a members-only skill, however Free-to-play players can level it up to level 5 through tasks assigned by Turael. Slayer involves being assigned a task to kill a certain number of creatures by Slayer Masters.

The difficulty of the creatures you must kill depends on the Slayer Master. With this skill you unlock the ability to kill Slayer Monsters, who commonly drop more valuable items.

Training Guide



Introduction

Slayer is a skill wherein a Slayer Master assigns you a certain number of a creature to kill. Once given your task, you will be expected to complete it either solo or with a partner.

If you choose to, you can enable a counter to display your current Slayer/Reaper task, your Slayer/Reaper points, and your current task streak - or just the number left in your assignment. This interface can be expanded or condensed by Right-clicking and choosing "shrink" or "expand". This is also how you toggle between your Slayer and Reaper task display. To enable this counter: go to your Options (gear icon), Settings, Skills tab, and find it under Slayer; it is the dropdown box along the top.

Slayer Masks

Several Slayer monsters have the ability to force a task to be assigned by a Slayer Master. This is done by wearing a special mask when you go to get a new task. Note that only a slayer master that typically assigns this creature can be forced to assign you this task; for example you cannot force Morvran to assign Crawling hands because they are not normally assigned by him. It is possible to check how long until you can force a task again by right-clicking the mask and selecting "Check Kills".

While wearing the mask the following bonuses apply...

  • when getting a new task, will guarantee that you get that monster as your next assignment (once per every so many days depending on the specific mask).
  • use it to teleport to locations where these monsters can be found (twice per day).
  • it will keep track of how many of that monster you have killed.
  • grant bonus damage and Slayer experience when killing them.
  • when not on task, you will still gain Slayer experience.
  • every 10th kill within the limit, you will get double the normal loot.
  • acts as a Face mask.

Once you have reached a certain amount of kills while wearing the mask (the amount varies), it will become a helm. At this point it will retain similar benefits, but no longer provide bonus experience, extra damage, nor double drops. You can choose to have it appear as the mask or helm as well. It is possible to reset your number of kills on a Helm by using a Spirit of Battle on it.

+You will need to unlock the ability for this Slayer Masters to assign these tasks (toggled in the Slayer Master Rewards menu)



Slayer Monsters

Various monsters can be substituted for another variety of their kind and count toward your current Slayer task. For example, Giant bats can be killed in place of regular Bats, or Brutal green dragons can be killed in place of Green dragons, etc. If the substitute has a higher Combat level than the assigned monster, the player will receive more Slayer and Combat experience for the task.
Note that monsters found inside a Player-owned house will not count towards a task.

Please see our Slayer Monster page for a full list of Slayer monsters in Gielinor.



Elite slayer creatures

Some slayer monsters now have a chance to spawn Elite monsters after killing them. These elite monsters drop 3 times the normal loot and 220% more slayer exp, however, these monsters hit harder than the normal slayer monsters (Protection Prayer/Curse are recommended while fighting!). Each elite monster will have a different Prefix/Suffix in their name. See the table below for examples.

Slayer Locations

When you are sent to kill any regular type of monster and aren't sure where to find it, check RuneHQ's Monster Database. However, there are several sites with a concentration of the Slayer Masters' favorite monsters, which are also listed in the Slayer Monsters Table above.



Slayer Points

Slayer points are awarded upon completion of your 5th and every following task. The amount of points awarded depends upon which Slayer Master assigned the task (see table below). You are allowed to mix and match between Slayer Masters e.g complete 4 tasks for Chaeldar and then your 5th task for Duradel. This way you will receive the points Duradel normally grants after 5 of his tasks. If you are using this method to obtain more Slayer points, do not use Turael/Spria as they reset your counter to 0.

From the 5th task on, you will recieve the same set of points for every task assigned. Every 10th and 50th task are special cases where you receive bonus points. Every 10th task grants you 5 times the normal points upon completion and after every 50th task you recieve 15 times the normal amount of points.



Points Awarded

The table below outlines the points awarded by each Slayer Master upon completion of a task (note that you will only receive half of the full points reward until you have completed Smoking Kills).

Slayer Challenges

After completing several tasks in a row for a single Slayer Master, they may offer you a special challenge. They will reward you with a chunk of experience and Reward Points if you manage you successfully complete it. Should you choose to no longer be offered these special tasks, you can check the 'don't ask me again' option when you decline it. This can later be re-enabled via dialogue options with the relevant Slayer Master by asking about special assignments. The challenges for each master are:



Turael/Spria

Requirements:

Turael/Spria has constructed a basement and filled it with monsters. They want you to enter the dungeon and kill all of the monsters inside in one visit.

Reward: 1,000 Slayer experience.



Mazchna

Requirements:

Mazchna wants you to investigate the Fairy Rings around Morytania and contact him via your Slayer gem when you're at each one. At the C-K-S ring East of Canifis, you'll have to kill a Ravenous goul after contacting him; at A-L-Q in the Haunted Woods, you'll have to kill a Ravenous vampyre; and at B-K-R in Mort Myre you'll have to kill a Ravenous snail.

Reward: 2,000 Slayer experience and 3 Reward Points.



Vannaka

Requirements:

Vannaka requests that you bring him a perfect dragon scale from each of the chromatic dragons (Green, Blue, Red, and Black). Note that both adult and baby dragons drop the scales and it may take several kills to obtain one. Once you have all four, return to Vannaka.

Slayer Contracts

By talking to Markus outside of the Slayer tower, you can receive a Slayer contract. These are special assignments based around the monsters in the tower that award either combat experience or money and 20% more Slayer experience per kill than you would receive if killing the monster during a standard assignment. You can choose between a normal and special contract, with special contracts requiring you to kill more monsters, but awarding more experience or money upon completion. These assignments can be done during a task or separate.

Tips and tricks

  • If you feel you can not defeat the higher level enemies, try some of these alternatives:
    • Birds - Chickens
    • Black dragons - Baby black dragons
    • Blue dragons - Baby Blue Dragons
    • Kalphites - Kalphite Workers
    • Red dragons - Baby Red Dragons
    • Trolls - Lower Level Trolls
    • Wolves - White Wolf Mountain Low Level Wolves
  • If there is an assignment that you feel you cannot perform, go to Turael/Spria before starting, or during, your task and you can be given a new task; this one you must complete. When you are done with that assignment you may return to your previous Slayer Master. Note that obtaining a task from them resets the number of completed tasks to 0 and does not count toward accumulating tasks. Spending slayer points to cancel your task is another option if you wish to presereve your tasks completed count.

  • You can consume a few potions or foods to temporarily raise your Slayer level.


Temporary level boosts and Quest rewards
