=== Chapter II-B: Easy Slayer Tasks ===
=== Chapter II-B: Easy Slayer Tasks ===


As your stats and gear improve throughout this chapter, more and more easy slayer tasks become viable to do. This is an advantage as it limits the amount of manual rerolling of tasks required. {{SC|Slayer coins}} are an important currency as they will be spent on {{UpgradeIcon|Basic Resupply|Basic Resupplies}} and will our next food source to replace {{ItemIcon|Potatoes}}. The {{ItemIcon|Lobster|Lobsters}} are important to obtain as they will be used towards the end of this chapter to obtain the more difficult upgrades such as {{ItemIcon|Amulet of Looting}}. Due to manual eating being quite slow, {{ItemIcon|Potatoes}} cannot feasibly be used for more difficult combat encounters where the damage sustained from enemies is high.

The category of easy slayer tasks can be broken down into roughly 4 groups: very easy, easy, moderate and dangerous (for auto slayer).

After these upgrades, your next step is {{MonsterIcon|Mithril Knight|Mithril Knights}}. Because they only drop gear a quarter of the time when killed (on average), it can take quite a while to get a full {{ItemIcon|Mithril Platebody|Mithril set}}, so we won't aim for this. You will probably get {{ItemIcon|Mithril Boots|Boots}} (25 in 268) and {{ItemIcon|Mithril Helmet|Helmets}} (15 in 268) and {{ItemIcon|Mithril Shield|Shields}} (5/134) quite often. The two lowest drop rate items ({{ItemIcon|Mithril Platelegs|Platelegs}} (5 in 268) and {{ItemIcon|Mithril Platebody|Platebody}} (1 in 568)) and are therefore not worth grinding for specifically. The corresponding {{ItemIcon|Adamant Platebody|adamant|nolink=true}} drop from {{MonsterIcon|Adamant Knight|Adamant Knights}} is a better use of your time to obtain later down the line.

For weapon upgrades, you will probably get both a {{ItemIcon|Mithril Scimitar|Scimitar}} (1 in 67) from {{MonsterIcon|Mithril Knight|Mithril Knights}}, too, so equip these once dropped. You may equip the {{ItemIcon|Mithril Sword|Sword}}, too, but consider sticking with the {{ItemIcon|Mithril Scimitar|Scimitar|nolink=true}} for now, to efficiently level up your {{Skill|Strength|nolink=true}} skill. You can upgrade to a cheap {{ItemIcon|Adamant Dagger}} from the {{MonsterIcon|Purple Goo Monster}} after {{Skill|Attack|30}}, and lastly the {{ItemIcon|Ice Sword}} at {{Skill|Attack|40}}.

As mentioned, you will want to get the {{ItemIcon|Ice Sword|nolink=true}} after getting mostly full {{ItemIcon|Mithril Platebody|Mithril Armour|nolink=true}} and {{Skill|Attack|40}}, as it is a really good upgrade at this point. The drop rate is 10% at the {{MonsterIcon|Ice Monster}} in the {{ZoneIcon|Icy Hills}}. The {{ItemIcon|Ice Sword|nolink=true}} is better at grinding {{Skill|Strength|nolink=true}} than all weapons from a lower tier.
