Soul Devourers · PvME Field Guide

Introduction

There are 6 types of soul devourers, ranging from 105 to 117 Slayer . The Magister may also be killed for this task, requiring 115 Slayer . The mobs each require a different level of attention, and the profits differ.

⬥ The Magister will give 8000 Slayer experience per kill and benefit from the use of Tuska's Wrath , but the slayer helmet effect does not work on him.

Desirable drops

⬥ Key to the Crossing

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Dropped at a rate of 1/75 on task, which can be increased to 1/60 with the use of Sophanem slayer dungeon drop enhancers.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Required for the Slayer collection log.

⬥ Vital Spark

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Can be doubled via the use of vital spark drop enhancers.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Required for the Slayer collection log.

⬥ Soul devourers each have their own drop tables, containing good alchables and other resources, making them a consistent moneymaker.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• The Sophanem Slayer Dungeon contains chests which will automatically gather drops.

Location and How to Get there

⬥ Sophanem Slayer Dungeon

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• You can teleport there with Sophanem Slayer Dungeon teleport tablets.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Alternatively, you can teleport to the Menaphos lodestone , take the bridge to Sophanem, and then run south to the dungeon entrance.

Feline Akh

Guide illustration Feline akh's have harder hitting attacks than Salawas, and a special attack which deals high magic damage and makes nearby feline akh's aggressive towards you. This occurs when the mob reaches 2500 life points, and hits when the bar above their head fully charges. Despite this, they can very easily be AFK'd in the same method as Salawas, and are often killed for their common elite clue drops . Due to their harder hitting attacks, the usage of a vampyrism scrimshaw is recommended, as the player should be praying .
