______________________________________
Hey everyone!
So I decided to start a slayer guide that covers all the aspects of the skill. This guide will include the fastest ways to go about tasks using melee; if there are magic/ranged options worthy of mentioning I will add them. I will also cover which tasks to permanently ban based on what you want out of the skill. This guide only covers the monsters from Kuradals list, I may include Duradel at a later date.
Notes:
•This guide is aimed towards players with a high combat level. If I don't mention things like super potions or piety, know that they can be used in replacement of their higher counterparts.
•Aquanites are not included because they should remain locked.
•In Multicombat areas with a cannon, chaotic weapons are not advised as they degrade faster and the cannon does most of the work.
•For assignments in Kuradals Dungeon I do not recommend having a slayer ring as you will know when the task is over.
•Anything with an asterisk means that it is dependent on the method you use.

v1 - Melee methods only
--------------------------------------------------
~Melee Setups~
There are three main melee setups that work for almost all slayer tasks.
Setup One: Maximizing strength bonuses
Tasks that use this setup:
•Abyssal Demons
•Blue Dragons
•Dagannoths
•Desert Strykewyrms
•Dust Devils
•Fire Giants
•Gargoyles
•Greater Demons
•Jungle Strykewyrms
•Living Rock Creatures
•Mutated Jadinkos
•Nechryaels
•Suqahs
•Tzhaar
•Warped Tortoises
Setup Two: Prayer + Attack Hybrid
Tasks that use this setup:
•Black Demons
•Black Dragons
•Dark Beasts
•Iron Dragons
•Mithril Dragons
•Steel Dragons
Setup Three: Maximizing Prayer
Tasks that use this setup:
•Aberrant Spectres
•Bloodvelds
•Hellhounds
--------------------------------------------------
Aberrant Spectres
Requirements: Smoking Kills, Slayer Helm
Location: Pollnivneach Dungeon
Equipment: Melee Setup 3 with Amulet of Fury
Special Weapon Not necessary; Dds if you want
Inventory: One Extreme Range potion, cannon, 3k cannonballs, slayer ring, herbicide, prayer potions, gem bag
Familiar: Either fighting familiar or BoB
Method: Have protect from magic on at all times. The cannon will do most of the work. If you have herbicide set it to clean any herbs you do not want to pick up. If you pick up herbs you will most likely have to bank. I use an Iron Titan and bank using home teleport so I can use the altar in Lumbridge and therefore only need one prayer potion.
---
Abyssal Demons
Location: Kuradal's Dungeon
Equipment: Melee setup 1
Special Weapon Dragon claws, Enhanced Excalibur, Korasi's Sword
Inventory:Extreme attack+strength potions, Alchemy Runes*, Familiar Scrolls*, Infernal Urns*, Prayer Potions, gem bag
Method 1: Have Turmoil and Berserker activated at all times. If you have Pack Yak then you will bank all infernal ashes and rune drops so you will not need infernal urns or alchemy runes. If you use a Tort then you will make bank trips when full. Heal with enhanced Excalibur and Soul Split. If you do not have a Pack yak or do not want to bank ashes with a Tort then you will be using either unicorn or bunyip, infernal urns, and alchemy runes for rune drops. 25 infernal ashes for each urn so bring the appropriate amount for your task.
---
Black Demons
Location: Chaos Tunnels, Taverly Dungeon*
Equipment: Melee setup 2 with berserker ring
Special Weapon: Dragon claws, Korasi's Sword
Inventory:Extreme attack+strength potions, prayer potions, infernal urns, alchemy runes, gem bag, cannon*, 2k cannonballs*, slayer ring
Method: Pray Turmoil, Protect from Melee, and Berserker. If you have an Iron/Steel titan you will use the chaos tunnels resource dungeon. Bring lots of scrolls (make sure your slayer helm is enchanted). Try to have 3-4 Black demons on you at all times. If you do not have Iron or Steel titan you will be limited to Taverly Dungeon(much slower task) but can bring a BoB for banking ashes. A cannon at Taverly dungeon can be used but will still be slower than Chaos tunnels (especially with the bots).
---
Black Dragons
Location: Taverly Dungeon
Equipment: Melee setup 2 with berserker ring
Special Weapon: Dragon claws, Korasi's Sword
Inventory: Extreme attack+strength potion, cannon, 2k cannonballs, super antifire, bonecrusher*, prayer potions, gem bag, alchemy runes*, slayer ring
Method: Pray Turmoil, Protect from Melee, and Berserker. Set up your cannon between both dragon spawns. With a pack yak you will bank all bones+hides and rune armour+weapon drops. If you do not have a pack yak you should use a tort to bank at Falador. Demonhorn necklace + bonecrusher will save some prayer but will not save money.
---
Bloodvelds
Requirements: Legacy of Seergaze
Location: Meiyerditch Caverns (for help getting there, refer to ---can't post the url for 6 more days---
Equipment: Melee setup 3
Special Weapon: Not necessary; Dds if you want
Inventory: Extreme range potion, cannon, 4k cannonballs, bonecrusher, 1 prayer potion, gem bag, alchemy runes, slayer ring
Method: Pray Protect from Melee. Utilize your best fighting familiar. Set up your cannon in the center of the Mutated Bloodvelds room; it will do pretty much all of the work. Your cannon will degrade about two times per task so watch it. If you do not have the Demonhorn necklace + bonecrusher combo then bring more prayer potions.
*****With Iron/Steel Titan this task yields the most slayer exp per hour!*****
---
Dagannoths
Location: Lighthouse
Equipment: Melee setup 1 with Balmung and berserker ring
Special Weapon: Enhanced Excalibur
Inventory: Extreme range potion, cannon, 3k cannonballs, gem bag, bonecrusher, 2 prayer potions, slayer ring
Method: Pray Turmoil and Berserker. Utilize your best fighting familiar. Set up your cannon in the center of the room; it will do pretty much all of the work. If you do not have the Demonhorn necklace + bonecrusher combo then bring more prayer potions.
---
Dark Beasts
Location: Path to the Light Temple
Equipment: Melee setup 2 with berserker ring
Special Weapon: Dragon Claws, Dds
Inventory: Extreme attack+strength potion, prayer potions, cannon, 2k cannonballs, bonecrusher, gem bag, slayer ring, alchemy runes*
Method: Pray Turmoil, Protect from Melee, and Berserker. Setup cannon in a large area of Dark Beasts. Use Pack yak, Tort, or high alchemy for any rune drops. Dark beasts will always be aggressive so you can afk but be sure to check for cannon decaying and prayer points.
---
Desert Strykewyrms
