A wall beast is a Slayer monster that requires level 35 Slayer to kill. A spiny helmet or Slayer helmet is required to start fighting one; without these helmets, a player will be grabbed and hurt without a chance to retaliate. When their initial grab is repelled with either helmet, the message Your helmet repels the wall beast! will be displayed. Players will not be assigned these as a task until they reach level 5 Defence, as it is required to wear the spiny helmet. This monster is not very popular, due to the fact that its drops are poor with the exception of the mystic hat (light). It is found only in the Lumbridge Swamp Caves. A light source is required, as is a rope if the caves have not been visited before.

This creature is infamous for surprising (and sometimes killing) low-level players who are traversing through the Lumbridge Swamp Caves. Wall beasts can be avoided when running by starting from a tile adjacent to the hole, thus skipping over the tile in front of the hole. Wall beasts can be a good source of guam leaf as it is the only herb they drop.

The spiny helmet is only required to initiate combat with a wall beast. Once it has started attacking normally, it can no longer grab the player's head, allowing a black mask to be used.

The best location to slay these is in the south-west corner of the dungeon where there are two spawns located close to one another. It is easy and effective to simply run back and forth between each spawn after completing a kill, as killing one wall beast will respawn the others. In addition, the beast located immediately by the entrance can be forced to respawn by exiting and re-entering the dungeon, making it an effective choice as well.

Alternatively, if a player begins an uninterruptible animation during the death animation of the wall beast, it will respawn instantly after the animation completes. Some examples are:

• Performing any Cape of Accomplishment emote.
• Stroking your pet cat.
• Preaching with a god book or book of egg

A light source is required to fight wall beasts. A bullseye lantern is optimal, as an open light source (such as a candle or a torch) can ignite dangerous swamp gas, resulting in an explosion which deals heavy damage and extinguishes the light source. Having the Fire of Eternal Light lit in the Lumbridge Swamp Caves makes an additional light source unnecessary. Players may also wish to bring an antipoison in case they accidentally attack a cave slime or a cave crawler, which are poisonous.
