Slayer helmet(i) and other cosmetic variants
The Slayer helmet provides a 15% strength and 12% accuracy (all combat styles) increase when fighting monsters assigned as your Slayer task. While it offers no combat advantages against non-task creatures, it's the optimal choice during any Slayer assignment. Consider switching to alternative headgear when battling monsters outside your assigned task.
