Slayer Guide

Slayer
Slayer is a pretty self-explainatory skill that allows players to kill monsters which are often otherwise immune to damage. Players get a Slayer task from Kuradal&nbsp who is currently Located in Lumbridge Trapdoor and players gain Slayer experience for killing monsters that they are assigned from him. The experience gained per monster is usually equal to 140/10 the monster's lifepoints. Slayer experience is granted in addition to regular combat experience. You can level-up to compete with others on the hiscores.

If more than one person is slaying the same m onster then the experience is potentially divided with one half of the experience going to the person who does the most damage and the other half going to whoever gets the last hit, so if a player does the most damage and gets the last hit that player still gets the full experience.

Slayer can be profitable since many Slayer assignments drop valuable items, such as Abyssal whips dropped by abyssal demons, dark bows dropped by dark beasts, Staff of light dropped by Ice strykewyrms, and even Whip Vine by Mutated jadinko guard and Mutated jadinko male. Ganodermic beasts are the highest slayer level requirement in the main game, beaten only by Daemonheim's Soulgazer. Generally, the stronger the monster, the more valuable its drops will be. Many Slayer monsters drop herbs and other useful, valuable items like runes, charms and clue scrolls, giving players an opportunity to advance such difficult-to-train skills as Herblore and Summoning.

Players are assigned tasks that require them to travel to areas around Frost Blades to kill various monsters. Some monsters require special equipment, such as earmuffs for Banshees. Otherwise, players will find it difficult, if not impossible, to kill certain creatures.
