'''{{PAGENAME}}''' are combat areas specific to the {{Skill|Slayer}} skill. Unlike other combat areas, killing [[monsters]] within these areas will grant the player {{Skill|Slayer}} experience equal to 5% of the slain [[monsters|monster's]] hitpoints. In addition, many of the [[monsters]] found within Slayer areas drop unique items that cannot be acquired elsewhere.

Some Slayer Areas have area effects, which will negatively impact the player while in combat with [[monsters]] within that area. The strength of these effects can be reduced by wearing equipment which provides Slayer area effect negation, a complete list of such equipment is provided [[#Items with Area Effect Negation|below]].
Some Slayer Areas have area effects, which will negatively impact the player while in combat with [[monsters]] within that area. The strength of these effects can be reduced by wearing equipment which provides Slayer area effect negation, a complete list of such equipment is provided [[#Sources of Area Effect Negation|below]]. The area effect negation of any equipment will continue to apply when equipped into the [[Combat Passive Slot]].


As of [[V0.19.2]], all available sources of Slayer Area Effect Negation are flat reductions. This means the negation amount is directly subtracted from the effect. For example, if a player is fighting in the {{ZoneIcon|Shrouded Badlands}} with its area effect of -40% Accuracy Rating and is wearing {{ItemIcon|Slayer Helmet (Elite)}} (15% flat Slayer Area Effect negation), they will suffer only -25% Accuracy Rating.

As of [[V0.19.2]], all Slayer Areas that have an area effect have a 40% penalty, which means any combination of items that reaches 40% Slayer Area Effect Negation (For example, {{ItemIcon|Slayer Platebody (Master)}} + {{ItemIcon|Max Skillcape}}) will completely remove the Slayer Area Effect penalty.
Equipping a couple of master tier items of Slayer equipment (such as the {{ItemIcon|Slayer Platebody (Master)}}) and the {{ItemIcon|Max Skillcape}}, the player will have 65% area effect negation which will entirely negate the effect of most areas. For areas whose base effect is 100%, the area effect can be entirely negated by equipping three items of master tier Slayer equipment (one being in the [[Combat Passive Slot]]) and the {{ItemIcon|Hunter's Ring}} while simultaneously having the [[Agility#Passive Pillars|Pillar of Combat]] active.


There is no benefit to negating more than the initial effect - For example, if the area has a -40% penalty to Accuracy Rating, there is no difference between having 40% Slayer Area Effect negation and having 50% Slayer Area Effect negation.
