Note that if you use an amulet other than {{ItemIcon|Guardian Amulet}} for the necklace slot, then you will have to wear it in the passive slot or use {{PrayerIcon|Holy Aegis}}+{{PrayerIcon|Stone Skin}} to make up for the lost DR.

5. After all of the above items have been obtained, the next goal is to continue working on {{ItemIcon|Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Legendary)}}. We need to complete 20 tasks and they take a long time. The upgrade offers 10% DR and 25% area negation (+4%/+5% respectively over master) per piece and will be a necessary source of DR and negation moving forward. Continue to farm {{MonsterIcon|Large Ice Troll|Large Ice Trolls}}, {{MonsterIcon|Spectral Ice Wolf|Spectral Ice Wolves}} and possibly {{MonsterIcon|Polar Bear|Polar Bears}}. The last monster has an unavoidable, 2 turn freeze attack which reduces your DPS considerably, so it may be worth simply skipping them. You will eventually need {{ItemIcon|Frost Walker Boots|qty=15}} and {{ItemIcon|Spectral Ice Sword|qty=5}} for upgrades in future, so farm either monster that you prefer.

The gear will be the same as the relevant sections for the monsters while substituting any upgrades made along the way.


There are unique drops offered by enemies in {{ZoneIcon|Lava Lake}}, but as the area effect is particularly strong these enemies will waste '''a lot''' of food if we tackle them now. Best to wait until we have access to greater slayer area negation. In addition and perhaps more importantly, all of these items are solely for collection log purposes. The {{ItemIcon|Ward of Flame Platebody}} and {{ItemIcon|Burning Protection Platelegs}} require {{ItemIcon|(P) Divine Platebody}} and {{ItemIcon|(P) Divine Platelegs}} respectively, which are unobtainable on a CO.

With the preliminary upgrades obtained, we set our sights on {{ItemIcon|Weakness Exploiter Cape}}, {{ItemIcon|Ethereal Longbow}}, {{ItemIcon|Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Mythical)}}, {{ItemIcon|Lightning Coil 2H Staff}} and {{ItemIcon|Ethereal Greataxe}}.
With the preliminary upgrades obtained, we set our sights on {{ItemIcon|Weakness Exploiter Cape}}, {{ItemIcon|Ethereal Longbow}}, all of the items from {{ItemIcon|Static Chest}}, {{ItemIcon|Lightning{{ItemIcon|Ethereal Greataxe}} and eventually {{ItemIcon|Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Mythical)}}.


We start with {{ZoneIcon|Ancient Sanctuary}}. To access this dungeon you first must acquire 5 clue pieces, each from the 5 unique enemies in {{ZoneIcon|Jungle Labyrinth}}. You will almost certainly already have {{ItemIcon|Labyrinth Clue 4}} and {{ItemIcon|Labyrinth Clue 5}} from {{MonsterIcon|Conda}} and {{MonsterIcon|Alraune}} respectively, so now just kill the remaining 3 monsters. You will need to make sure you obtain {{ItemIcon|Weakness Finder Cape}} from {{MonsterIcon|Poison Toad}} as well before moving on.

You will need to make sure you obtain {{ItemIcon|Weakness Finder Cape}} from {{MonsterIcon|Poison Toad}} as well before moving on. With Legendary slayer gear and other gear upgrades from the previous section it is extremely easy to bypass the DR requirements for these monsters, just make sure to use {{Skill|Ranged}} for the {{Skill|Magic}} enemy, {{MonsterIcon|Poison Toad}}.


With the five clue pieces obtained, purchase {{UpgradeIcon|Labyrinth Solution}} from the shop. You will be looking to obtain {{ItemIcon|Weakness Exploiter Cape Material|qty=100}}, which will require about {{ItemIcon|Ancient Chest|qty=450}}. This cape is very strong for {{Skill|Ranged}} as it provides hefty range offensive bonuses, a nice 3% DR and -7% enemy DR when using {{Skill|Ranged}}.

Next, keeping with the theme of {{Skill|Ranged}} upgrades, we next seek to fight {{MonsterIcon|Phantom}} to obtain {{ItemIcon|Ethereal Longbow}}. This monster is quite strong and will require a {{ItemIcon|Wasteful Ring}}, {{ItemIcon|Guardian Amulet}} and {{PrayerIcon|Holy Aegis}} to just barely stay alive. It will take about 20 hours to reach the drop rate for the item.

It will take about 20 hours to reach the drop rate for the item. It is worth killing this monster on task, as you will overall profit slayer coins.
 
With some good {{Skill|Ranged}} upgrades under our belt, we can work on clearing our way through {{ZoneIcon|Lightning Region}} to obtain all of the goodies within. This dungeon is very dangerous, hence why we must prepare adequately for it. To access this dungeon we need to blitz through {{ZoneIcon|Underground Lava Lake}} once. This dungeon is very easily cleared with {{ItemIcon|Ultima Godsword}} or possibly with {{ItemIcon|Spectral Ice Sword}}, '''however''' you will have to take care to avoid fighting {{MonsterIcon|Magic Fire Demon}} while using {{Skill|Attack|Melee}}. These can very easily kill you outright, but are easily dispatched by swapping to {{Skill|Ranged}} and then switching back afterwards. The boss {{MonsterIcon|Trogark}} will outheal our punny damage from {{Icon|Water Strike|type=spell}} with {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}}, so we have to rely on the raw power of {{ItemIcon|Ultima Godsword}} instead to get the job done.


With a very good set of {{Skill|Ranged}} upgrades, it is possible to work on completing {{MonsterIcon|Ice Hydra}} tasks which count as mythical tasks. In fact, {{MonsterIcon|Ice Hydra}} is the ''only'' mythical task we have access to. At the time of writing this guide, there is an issue where you can never roll the same {{Skill|Slayer}} task twice in a row, even if that is the only {{Skill|Slayer}} task you have available for that tier. There is a mod available in the Official Mod Manager which fixes this issue. If you choose to use the mod to fix the issue, then simply equip you pimped out {{Skill|Ranged}} gear and begin working towards 20 mythical tasks through {{MonsterIcon|Ice Hydra}} to obtain {{ItemIcon|Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Mythical)}}. If you decide not to use the mod fix, then still don your drip and prepare to manually reroll tasks by selecting an easy task after each {{MonsterIcon|Ice Hydra}} task and then selecting another mythical task.

With {{ItemIcon|Slayer Cowl (Mythical)}} and {{ItemIcon|Slayer Leather Body (Mythical)}} we can work on limping our way through {{ZoneIcon|Lightning Region}} to obtain {{ItemIcon|Lightning Coil 2H Staff}}.
