Shades can be assigned as a slayer task, with no Slayer level requirement by Mazchna and Vannaka. Level 159 Shades may be found in Stronghold of Security and level 140 Shades may be found in Catacombs of Kourend. The Loar Shades in Mort'ton count for a slayer task as well, and are typically preferred as they are much faster to kill. They are susceptible to the Salve Amulet and Crumble Undead (however, their 40% weakness to wind spells means that Wind Bolt will do more damage than Crumble Undead for the same cost of a chaos rune, providing the player has 35 Magic or more). It is worth noting that combat experience gained while fighting the shades in the Stronghold of Security is drastically reduced; the player will gain 1 experience for 10 damage dealt.

Location Comparison
| Location | Maplink | Amount | Multicombat | Cannonable | Safespottable | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sepulchre of Death in Stronghold of Security | Show map | 4 | No | Yes | Yes | Can be safespotted using a skeleton found on the eastern side in the middle northern part of the room |
| Catacombs of Kourend | Show map | 6 | Yes | No | Yes | Can be safespotted by using a corner in the area just south of the Steel Dragons. Shades can also get caught on several corner tiles found within their area, allowing for an effective safespot while avoiding the Steel Dragons. |
| Mort'ton | Show map | 25 | No | Yes | Yes | Easiest and fastest to kill. Priest in Peril is required to access Mort'ton. Cannon placement is limited, but it is possible to set one up along the eastern boundary of Mort'ton. |

No | No | Yes | Keys required to access certain parts of dungeon (see Shade Catacombs) |
