Infernal Mage

Infernal Mages are Slayer monsters that require level 45 Slayer to kill. They are sometimes killed for their common Death rune drops; otherwise, these monsters are usually neglected.

Strengths and weaknesses
Infernal Mages use a weaker version of the spell Fire Blast to attack the player, so wearing dragonhide or mage armour will reduce the damage taken. This "Half Fire Blast" spell hits a maximum of 89 life points, but hits extremely often. Although, wearing Dragonhide reduces this hit, for they rarely hit over 75 with it equipped. Protect from Magic is recommended. Bones to Peaches is recommended, too, as the bones they drop can be converted to food.

In a multi-combat area like the Chaos Tunnels, when a player stops fighting and lets a familiar attack the Infernal Mage, the mage will attack back with melee, no matter how far the familiar is from the mage. You cannot use a cannon on any infernal mages due to chaos tunnels and dark magic in the slayer tower.
