Zombies can be assigned as a slayer task at level 10 combat by various Slayer masters. Zombies are most often found in places that depict death, such as graveyards.
Monkey Zombies, Undead chickens, Undead cows, Undead Druids, Undead ones, Vorkath, Zogres, and Zombie rats can all be killed to satisfy the task. The zombies found in Tarn's Lair do not count towards the task, nor does the Zombies Champion.
Zombies are primarily ignored as they have a very poor drop table, though players who are assigned them have the option of killing Undead Druids or Vorkath, provided they have the requirements to do so.
When assigned by Krystilia as part of a Wilderness task, zombies are more lucrative, with players having the option of killing zombie pirates, who have a generous drop table provided that the player has completed the Medium Wilderness Diary. If not killing the pirates, the only options are the Graveyard of Shadows and the eastern ruins, both of which are popular player killing hotspots due to being next to the lairs of Calvar'ion and Spindel respectively. The Graveyard of Shadows is more open and thus a cannon is more effective there.
Undead cows and chickens are good for players who wish to quickly complete the task. It is not recommended to kill Monkey Zombies, as they have no tradeable or useful non-quest drops. Vorkath is the highest level alternative to this task, and can only be accessed during and after Dragon Slayer II.
