Best slayer gear?; Asking for thoughts on slayer gear

Hey guys, I thought I'd ask this question for my own sake and for the sake of others who may have also been wondering. Below in the picture I have made up my gear lists. Please give your thoughts and I will post an updated picture once enough collaboration has been done.

For the list I have included degradable weapons but not degradable armour (excluding blood fury and a few exceptions etc.). Perhaps a suggestion could be a degradable armour if you feel that it's worth it.

Thanks,

Degradable armour is definitely not worth using for slayer. I've always used the lvl 70 godwars power armours that you listed and they should still be the best to use. I've found that it isn't really needed to use ranged for slayer, excluding maybe celestial dragons and ascension (for money) tasks. If you're on a budget just make sure to obtain the cheapest drygores (owning more than 1 pair is useless, crush/slash/stab make no real dif). Then if you got a bit more cash get the nox staff because that's what you need for the real slay expees.

So far I've found all my tasks are weak to bolts, perhaps that's a Kuradel thing? The weapons were just like a get if the money is there kind of thing but is the order I have them in good or am I missing any? Also is there any other items in the other slots like necklace/ring I should know about? And what do I have in the inventory, I always forget stuff?

This was my set up for my aberrant spectre task. Anything I should change? I was thinking ring of death? Also black salamander is temporary, didn't realise hand cannon had quest requirements.

It wouldn't let me upload the photo but it was as follows:
Inventory: ectoplasmor, herbicide, nature runes, fire runes, gem bag
Equipment: slayer helm, charming imp, trimmed skill cape, blood amulet of fury, swamp tar, black salamander, armadyl chestplate, armadyl chainskirt, armadyl gloves, armadyl boots, archers' ring

The black salamander is temporary because I didn't realise hand cannon had quest requirements. I will move onto wyvern crossbow as soon as I can.

Anything I should change? Ring of death?

There's not really any real difference between subcategories of the same style unless you're doing pvm tbh

Anyways for weapons:
  • Ranged:
    • Nox>Asc because longer range
    • Strykebow isn't an option because shieldbow=100%mh damage (dw/2h=150%)
    • Zaryte supposedly doesn't lose charges unless you autoattack, but high upfront cost

  • Mage:
    • Nox>Seis same as ranged, also conc blast is bad dps if you don't cancel after last hit
    • Camel is probably not worth since it's still higher price than Nox atm
    • Arma staff is "good enough"

  • Melee:
    • Scythe is good for aoe but Drygores are much cheaper
    • t85 is crappy you can buy Drygores around same price as claws
    • Not worth going lower in melee tiers just because you have to run around imo
    • Also Darklight after you've upgraded from Dimension of Disaster is good on Kal'gerions and Rippers.

  • Max slay helm but you probably just didn't bother putting that in
  • Penance also works on stuff that hits high enough like Airuts
  • Mage arena cape=Ava's alerter=Fire cape if you're going under Kiln capes, skillcapes are crap
  • Hydrix is definitely not worth using for slayer, also consider Demonhorn+Bonecrusher/Attuned ectoplasmator for free pray and Dragonrider amulet for mage.
  • T70power is good enough Tuska wp is a bit under, t90 is less expensive to upkeep than t80 but never bothered verifying math, so take it as you will
  • Asylum surgeon's ring (+vigour)>imbued>circuit>other crap
  • Herbicide is essentially useless these days due to drop table patches, most unnoted herb drops are from RDT. Enhanced excalibur(EE) is great to take along for most things. Dominion marker gives some level boost whenever your stats drop back to base if you're super cheap about slaying, higher levels are better. Enhanced gem bag can hold dragonstones as well i.e. Abyssal demons.

Weakness mostly doesn't matter for slay until you do EOC mobs, ammo should be at least same tier as weapon (unless using dbane), spells of same tier does same damage. idk I don't slay.
