::Intoduction::
Well you heard it folks. The slayer guide is back!
Well to start things off, Slayer is a skill in which a player is assigned a certain number of monsters to kill. Each person gets a diffrent monster and a different number of monsters each time. This is setup at random, you never know what your ganna get. You know, kinda like a box of chocolates.
Each monster is different. Each one give you a differnet amount of XP in either Defence, Strength, Attack, or Slayer. This can be very usefull to anyone that love to skill combat only. It is also widely known that Slayer is one of if not the hardest skill to reach level 99 in.

Lumbridge Map
Canafis Map
Seer's Map
Taverley Map
Most if not all the monsters listed above can be found at each of these locations.

::Armory::
There are many types of armor that one can wear while working on Slayer. One of my personal suggestions is that you use Barrows. Each type of Barrows armor does something diffrent to BENEFIT you.
Example: Guthans - Randomly heals you the amount of damage dealt to an enemy
But there is also Slayer Armor that is required to wear for specific monsters.

Well there are many items for Slayer. Most of wich were just mentioned above. But here i will give you the Items that can be dropped by Slayer monsters and there prices.

Leaf-Bladed Spear - 31,000gp - Used for killiing Turoths and Kurasks

::Tips and Tricks::
These are a few simple Tips and Tricks that some may know some may not. Ill just let you guys know the ones i have picked up on through my adventures of Slaying.
Tip: If your having trouble with Melee try Ranging or Maging (Vise Verse.) There are usually spots in the training areas for you to be safe behind.
Trick: When fighting and you belive you're getting low on HP. If you have Guthans in your invontory, quickly switch to it in hopes that you get the speacial. This will save money on food and your life.
Tip: Use the Slayer Master according to your level. Using a low one will slow down the process of Slayer. I eventually learned this and it has sped the process up much faster.
Trick: Using alternatives. This is a cool trick to use. Lets say you feel you cant defeat a level 111 Blue Dragon. You can walk over to the Baby Blue Dragons for the assignment. This lowers the experience that you recive, but keeps you safe.
Tip: If there is a you think you cannot perform, go to Tureal in Burthorpe and he will give you an easier assignment.
Trick: If theres a monster you wish to kill to get a drop, you may eat a Wild Pie to raise your slayer level by 5. Eatting this will allow you to atack the monster, but watch it, it will evenutally return to your normal level.
