It is recommended to start with {{Skill|Slayer}} Tasks as early as possible, working towards unlocking {{UpgradeIcon|Auto Slayer}} as the primary goal. Be aware that this can take some time as the enemies the player is able to kill at this stage will not drop very many {{SC|SC}}.

Slayer Areas sometimes require items that must be purchased using {{SC|SC}} from the [[Shop]] such as the {{ItemIcon|Mirror Shield}} and {{ItemIcon|Desert Hat}}. The monsters locked in slayer areas will not be rolled in slayer tasks until the item has been purchased from the shop. Also, if you are using {{UpgradeIcon|Auto Slayer}}, monsters locked behind an item will never appear if the item is not equipped; you can leverage this to control the task rolls.

It should be noted that while UW is listed first, '''completing the {{ZoneIcon|Impending Darkness Event}} first will make this grind faster!''' You can complete ID without any of the UW gear sets, the sets don't help the event very much, and the shields speed up the slayer area signifcantly.
