At {{Skill|Slayer|50}}, save up enough {{SC|slayer coins}} to purchase a {{ItemIcon|Desert Hat}}. You will also transition from {{UpgradeIcon|Basic Resupply}} to {{UpgradeIcon|Standard Resupply}} for the rest of the game at this point. This item gives you access to {{ItemIcon|Rune Gloves}}, {{ItemIcon|Desert Wrappings}}, {{ItemIcon|(G) Rune Boots}} and {{ItemIcon|Sand Treaders}}, as well {{ItemIcon|Desert Sabre}} that you may want to farm at one point. You will want to farm for at least {{ItemIcon|Rune Gloves}} and {{ItemIcon|(G) Rune Boots}} from the respective creatures in {{ZoneIcon|Arid Plains}}, as these have relatively common drop rates and won't take long. {{ItemIcon|Desert Wrappings}} offer a nice 2% DR which will help with {{ZoneIcon|Spider Forest}}, but can be skipped as they will soon be replaced with {{ItemIcon|Paladin Gloves}}. It is possible to kill {{MonsterIcon|Turkul Giant|Turkul Giants}} at this point to obtain {{ItemIcon|Dragon Scimitar}} or {{ItemIcon|Desert Sabre}}, but these upgrades are relatively minor over the {{ItemIcon|Rune 2H Sword}} and will soon be replaced with items from {{ZoneIcon|Deep Sea Ship}} anyway.

'''BEWARE''': Do not {{UpgradeIcon|Auto Eat - Tier II|Auto Eat|nolink=true}} {{ItemIcon|Potatoes|nolink=true}} in the {{ZoneIcon|Arid Plains|nolink=true}} unless you have at least {{UpgradeIcon|Auto Eat - Tier II|nolink=true}}. You will lose all your {{ItemIcon|Potatoes|nolink=true}} instantly as they will round down to 0 healing.


Killing {{MonsterIcon|Paladin|Paladins}} for {{ItemIcon|Paladin Gloves}} at this stage is somewhat viable, but they have a low drop rate and the Auto Eat threshold is quite high. Over a long period, the chance of making a mistake and dying is quite high, so it would be better to wait until you can rely on auto eat to do its thing. Around 20% DR and 660 HP.
