What should i do for slayer?

[skaterrjamez]

i have maxed combat however my slayer is horrible so im planning on doing it all over the next few days with tripple slay and zeal.

 

i have 144 slay points so don't have slay helm and believe i need them for serious slayer?

im going to range slay because my range level is 97 then once 99 i'll go back to melee.

 

my question is, which slayer master should i be going to? for fast points/xp

[Tansuo]

I think the fastest xp/points is doing duradel/lapalok then every 10th task going to kuradel.

Or you could simply just do kuradel non stop as she gives fewer annoying tasks than duradel/lapalok and in general, her tasks are easy to get to as theyre right in her slayer cave

Slayer helmet is only some things combined with a lil stat boost.

 

So just take Duradel or Lapalok.

 

Higher lvl monsters good drops and most xp

[skaterrjamez]

alright i'll head over to duradel/lapalok because i don't have 75 slay for highest master.

O_o how did you max combat melee with such low slayer lol

[transcript80]

You could use maczna for every 1-9th task (short, easy, fast), and cash in the points bonus at the highest slayer master at your disposal for the bonus 10th task. That gives a nice amount of points rather fast.

 

As for the helmet per se, a black mask (no requirements) is enough if you only melee. You probably don't need the extra stats the helm provides if you are maxed combat. If this is the case, use the best slayer master you can, and the points will come as you progress through the skill.

Slayer helm is only important for dust devils and aberrant spectres, where you can't use a black mask. And it's really not important for specs either, if you're cannoning them with deflect mage. Outside of those tasks (and wall beasts or banshees, which are only assigned by lower slayer masters), you're only missing out on a few defensive bonuses, which are nice to have but certainly not necessary. You're better off prioritizing slayer rings, which are more useful overall--you can't do terror dogs without them; the teleports are useful for speeding up tasks like Goraks, Abby Specs, Kalphites, and Waterfiends; and they actually have uses outside of slaying (fastest access to morchella mushroom planting, fastest way to buy broad arrowheads/bolt tips, fastest access to Temple Trekking pre-Branches of Darkmeyer, fastest access to Glacors...etc).
