This writeup is intended to be mobile-friendly as the UI can make switching difficult. Thus, there will be a focus on limiting the amount of switching necessary, from gear to prayers. Using a web browser or PC will help, as you will be able to swap gear much faster, but is not required. Using a PC will allow you to switch prayers, gear, or spells to optimize DPS, but these will not be discussed in depth.

====God Armour Set====
====God Armour Sets====
The God Armour sets can be used for all Slayer areas beside {{ZoneIcon|Unhallowed Wasteland}}. Being mobile-focused, an emphasis on DR options is preferred. Thus Terran and ELS are recommended, but can be swapped for Ragnar and DPS shields respectively if you feel comfortable.
The God Armour sets can be used for all Slayer areas beside {{ZoneIcon|Unhallowed Wasteland}}. Being mobile-focused, an emphasis on DR options is preferred. Thus {{ItemIcon|Terran God Platebody|Terran Armour}} and {{ItemIcon|Earth Layered Shield|ELS}} are recommended for all 3 combat styles, but can be swapped for {{ItemIcon|Ragnar God Platebody|Ragnar Armour}} and DPS shields ({{ItemIcon|Dragonfire Shield}} and {{ItemIcon|Scaled Shield}}) respectively if you feel comfortable, ELS should remain on your Magic set as it has no real alternative shield until you have killed the third Bane.

===Bane Fights===
{{MonsterIcon|Bane|Bane's}} attack style randomly rolls when he spawns. If you don't want to fight with a particular style, you can run - do not Stop the event as this will reset all progress - and reclear the slayer area to roll a new {{MonsterIcon|Bane|nolink=true}} spawn.
{{MonsterIcon|Bane|Bane's}} attack style randomly rolls when he spawns. Similar to {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}}, you ''must'' fight him with the same combat style he is using, as he is immune to all attacks from other combat styles. If you don't want to fight with a particular style, you can run - do not stop the event as this will reset all progress - and re-clear the last slayer area to roll a new {{MonsterIcon|Bane|nolink=true}} spawn. Bane has the same abilities no matter his combat style.
 
It is suggested that the appropriate [[#God Armour Sets|God Armour Set]] build is used during Bane fights.


====Melee Bane====
====Melee Bane====
Probably the most annoying style as the modifiers stack up. Nothing special, just let {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} do the work as you pay attention to his attacks.
Probably the hardest style as the modifiers stack up. Just let the {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} do the work as you pay attention to its attacks.
 
In some of the modifier variations, the final Bane will require a lot of manual eating.
 
You are better off re-rolling its attack style by re-clearing the area rather than losing two hours of work.

Probably the easiest style as you can {{Icon|Incinerate|type=spell}} the entire fight for guaranteed burn and damage. You can switch to any normal spell and start relying on {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} as the burn damage will drop off around half HP if you want, but is not really necessary. You can use normal {{Skill|Magic}} and {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song|nolink=true}} the entire fight too. Using {{Icon|Incinerate|type=spell}} the entire fight allows you to use {{Icon|Damage Reduction Potion|Damage Reduction Potions}} instead of {{Icon|Diamond Luck Potion|Diamond Luck}} as your hits are already guaranteed at 20k+ Accuracy Rating.
Probably the easiest style as you can use {{Icon|Incinerate|type=spell}} for the duration of the fight for guaranteed burn and damage. You may wish to switch to any normal spell and start relying on {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} once Bane reaches less than half HP, as the burn damage will drop off around half HP, however this is not really necessary. Alternatively, normal {{Skill|Magic}} and {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song|nolink=true}} can be used for the entire fight too. Using {{Icon|Incinerate|type=spell}} for the entire fight allows you to use {{Icon|Damage Reduction Potion|Damage Reduction Potions}} instead of {{Icon|Diamond Luck Potion|Diamond Luck}} as your hits are already guaranteed at 20k+ Accuracy Rating.
