Area in the  . These 3 mobs drop the highest level, and often most powerful, armor in the game that are extremely helpful in completing the following slayer area, as well as the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Throne of the Herald

. These can be extremely long grinds due to the difficulty of the monsters, and require quite a bit of preparation. The least common drops that will usually take the longest to obtain are the     Platebodies at a drop rate of 3/1300, which means an average of 434 kills for each monster to fully complete the armor sets.

We recommend acquiring them while fighting each monster as a slayer task, this will require you to turn OFF auto-slayer, and will encourage semi-frequent check-ins. Doing these on task will increase your damage dealt to them from various buffs. This will make the order you obtain the various equipment in effectively random, but if you don't want to deal with the hassle of rerolling, or simply want to do them in a specific order, the guide will recommend the following order:

Additionally, you should also acquire the pet   Patchy whilst doing this grind, if you do not, continue farming whichever mob you kill the fastest on or off task until you get it.

Order

The order you obtain these items in is not particularly important, and considering each separate item can be a huge upgrade individually, it is often recommended to fight each mob for only a short time before equipping the newly obtained armour and switching to the next, repeating this until the player has completed the sets.

Doing these grinds simultaneously with the grinds for the t120 weapons can also be a good idea,

A roughly complete order for finishing   Slayer as efficiently as possible would look like:

  1.   Torvair /   Arctair /   Harkair
  2.   Vorloran Devastator
  3.   Torvair
  4.   Vorloran Watcher
  5.   Harkair
  6.   Vorloran Protector
  7.   Arctair

Many players combine the grinding of these weapons with the grind for the   Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Mythical). An added benefit is the increased damage given by buffs like the   Slayer Skillcape and

while fighting Slayer Tasks. Another benefit is the ability to buy prayer points,   Light Runes, and Food at a profit with the use of   Bountiful Resupply. Below are some gear suggestions. Depending on what

Prayer

  • For Melee, use
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Battleborn
    and
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Valor
    or the highest level combat style prayers you have available.
  • For Ranged, use
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Battleborn
    and
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Avidity
    or the highest level combat style prayers you have available.
  • For Magic, use
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Battleborn
    and
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Divination
    or the highest level combat style prayers you have available.

Potions

For all combat styles, use   Damage Reduction Potion IV

Summoning

For all combat styles, use   Spectre and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Occultist

. This synergy adds a ridiculous amount to the player's chance to hit, even with otherwise maxed stats, and helps a lot in actually landing hits. Alternatively, use   Fox and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Dragon

to deal a significant amount of unavoidable damage when the player is otherwise having trouble hitting the target

Notes

Checking your setups with the Combat Simulator before engaging any of these monsters is highly recommended. These setups have not been fully tested, and may not prove to be perfectly optimal.
