Abyssal demons are one of the strongest demons in RuneScape. They can drop a large amount of items, ranging from a few coins to an abyssal whip, regarded as one of the best non-degradable weapons. Players need a slayer level from 80-84 (wild pies) to temporarily damage them, and 85 to be able to damage them without the use of a wild pie.

Abyssal demons can be cannoned; however this is pointless as the only place to do so is the Abyss, and the abyssal demons there are well spread out.

StrategiesEdit

DharokingEdit

Dharoking is a common way to kill them, provided the player does not mind losing a part of Dharok's set. However, players should take caution as they can hit unusually accurate, despite their low damage output. With a good strength level. As you're avoiding the attacks, a good prayer bonus may be helpful.

TipsEdit

• Pick up drops. Abyssal demons are commonly known for dropping noted pure essence in stacks of 60. They are good droppers of rune items. Always keep the Abyssal whips and sell them when needed.
• Alch the rune and mithril items that they drop.
• If needed to save time, several Infernal urns may be helpful as they will automatically collect their ashes.
