The slayer's staff (e) is an upgraded version of the slayer's staff, obtained by using a slayer's enchantment on it. It requires 75 Magic and 55 Slayer to wield. It can be used to cast Magic Dart like the normal version of the staff.

Upon enchanting the staff, it becomes untradeable and gains 2,500 charges. Once the charges run out, it will revert to a regular Slayer's staff, and an additional Slayer's enchantment must be used on it.

Using the staff increases the damage dealt by Magic Dart when attacking a Slayer monster the player is assigned to kill. Specifically, the max hit of Magic Dart when using the slayer's staff (e) increases from to . This stacks with other magic-damage boosts like the occult necklace, tormented bracelet, and black mask (i)/slayer helmet (i). Each cast of Magic Dart consumes 1 charge from the staff if the spell hits. If the spell does not hit, no charges will be consumed. Charges are also not consumed (and damage is not boosted) when casting Magic Dart on a monster that is not a current Slayer assignment.

Maximum hit

The maximum hit of Magic Dart while wielding this staff is dependent on the player's current Magic level, starting at 25 with level 75 Magic, up to a maximum of 31 at level 108 (with an imbued heart). Both magic damage bonuses and stat boosts will modify the max hit of the spell; likewise, stat-reductions will lower the damage.

If the player is not attacking a monster that is part of their Slayer task, the maximum hits of the regular Slayer's staff applies.
