Slayer points

Slayer reward points are awarded when a player finishes an assignment or challenge assigned by any Slayer Master (except Turael/Spria). This ability is unlocked after completing the Smoking Kills quest. The higher level the Slayer Master, the more points are received. Slayer reward points can be traded in to any slayer master for various rewards. The approximate value is 0 coins per point (based on 35 points per batch of runes).

To start collecting Slayer reward points, Smoking Kills must be completed, and hence a Combat level of 85 and a Slayer level of 35 are required. Points are awarded for every task the player completes after their fourth, until they have a task changed by Turael (the first four tasks will earn no points, but from the fifth task onwards, points will be received). Every 10 and 50 tasks completed will give bonus points - every 10th task gives five times the Slayer Master's normal point amount, and every 50th task gives fifteen times the normal amount.

If a player changes their task with Turael (or Spria), their task count will be reset back to zero. As such, they will have to complete another four tasks before they can earn points again. Tasks set by Turael/Spria do not count towards the four needed before points are earned, nor do they count toward the total number of tasks completed in determining which one will be the bonus task (i.e. multiple of ten or fifty).

Players who just wish to accumulate points in a short time may choose to get tasks assigned by Mazchna for the first nine tasks and then the highest Slayer Master possible, for the tenth task. This is commonly done by players seeking faster slayer points, as higher levelled Slayer Masters usually give longer, harder tasks. The maximum amount of slayer points a player can have at once is 64,011.

Obtaining points
There are two ways of obtaining Slayer points: completing Slayer assignments or Slayer challenges.

Assignments
Players are advised to use Mazchna for the first four Slayer tasks and then any Slayer Master that gives decent tasks for the player's combat level. Every 10th and 50th task, players are recommended to use the highest Slayer Master possible, due to the large increase in Slayer points given.

Challenges
Slayer challenges are sometimes given to players by Slayer Masters. They award the normal amount of Slayer points (the amount that would have been given if it was a task) plus bonus Slayer points and Slayer experience.

Rewards
Many players save their points to learn how to craft Slayer helmets. It is advised to spend the next points on learning how to craft a Slayer ring, and then on cancelling unwanted tasks. The rest of the points can then be spent on whatever the player likes, but buying rune packs for 35 points or Slayer experience for 400 points seem to be the most popular choices.
