Greater demons can be assigned by Krystilia, Chaeldar, Konar, Nieve/Steve, and Duradel/Kuradal. Despite their "greater" status, they possess a somewhat lackluster drop table, with their two most valuable drops being the rune full helm and the hard clue scroll. There are many different types of greater demons residing around Gielinor; however, with the exception of the Wilderness Slayer Cave, all have the same drop table.

When not killing greater demons as part of Konar or Krystilia's tasks, players have many spots to choose from. The most common spots are the Chasm of Fire and Catacombs of Kourend. The Chasm of Fire is a cannonable area in a small space, allowing for plenty of AFK and fast kill times, along with contracts for challenging a stronger version of Yama. Catering to the increased drop rates will require more banking and less AFK time, however. The Catacombs of Kourend has access to the ancient shard and dark totem piece drops. It is also a Multicombat area, allowing for players to AFK until the aggression timer expires, which can be easily reset.

In the Wilderness, players have several spots to kill greater demons from. The most common would be the Wilderness Slayer Cave due to the enhanced drops, multiway area and allowing a cannon, but this spot is frequented often by player killers, so players should not bring items they are not willing to lose. The Demonic Ruins is a much worse spot, due to being a far deeper multiway area and players tend to teleport in via Annakarl Teleports. A more secluded spot is the Lava Maze Dungeon, but accessing it requires a long trek around the maze, or 82 Agility (boostable at 77) for a shortcut that cuts a significant amount of time.

Players who have completed While Guthix Sleeps may also kill Tormented Demons for the progression of a greater demon task. These are a significant step up compared to normal greater demons and require a minimum of two combat styles in order to be fought. They provide extremely good experience rates (with each kill being 1,065 slayer experience) and can drop the valuable tormented synapse, which is used to create high tier, best-in-slot demonbane weaponry, which makes them worth it for ironmen that frequently kill demonic creatures. See their strategy page on more information on how to fight them.

The bosses Skotizo (guide) and K'ril Tsutsaroth (guide) also count towards greater demons for the purpose of a slayer task. Skotizo requires a dark totem in order to access. He drops clue scrolls, making it a great option for players that want to complete some Treasure Trails. K'ril requires a minimum of level 70 Hitpoints and partial completion of Troll Stronghold in order to access. His bodyguard Tstanon Karlak also counts as a greater demon.

Location comparison

Location Maplink Amount Multicombat Cannonable Safespottable Notes
Brimhaven Dungeon Show map 7 No Yes Yes
  • Axe needed
  • 875 entry for each time, a one-time fee of 1,000,000 or alternate entry of one-off fee of 5000 trading sticks
  • Demon spawns are fairly far apart, while cannonable it is not an ideal spot for clearing tasks unless assigned by Konar.
Chasm of Fire Show map 16 No Yes Yes
Catacombs of Kourend Show map 13 Yes No Yes
Entrana Dungeon Show map 2 No Yes Yes
  • Due to not being able to take weapons and armour to Entrana, it is not advisable to complete a Slayer Task there
Lava Maze Dungeon Show map 3 No Yes Yes
  • As the other wilderness areas are multicombat, one may elect to do their slayer task here. Highly recommended to have 82 Agility if completing tasks here.
Demonic Ruins Show map 4 Yes Yes Yes
  • Prayer points regenerate over time at the Demonic Ruins - however, due to it being deep in the Wilderness, multicombat, and a popular teleport destination, it is very unsafe to do your task here.
Ogre Enclave Show map 5 No Yes Yes
  • Most of the Greater Demons in this location are behind a cage, requiring either a halberd or other ranged methods
Isle of Souls Dungeon Show map 7 No Yes Yes
  • The safespot is behind the two rocks on the eastern side of the inner wall, about 6 tiles south of the demonic symbols.
  • Fairly compact area, though not as consistent as the Chasm of Fire for cannon tasks. A lesser demon may also interrupt the player.
Karuulm Slayer Dungeon Show map 9 No Yes Yes
  • The safespot is by the entrance to the greater demon room. If you stay one tile away from the room, the greater demon won't be able to reach you.
