What Slayers Are
Slayers are instanced boss fights unlocked through the Slayer menu (or /slayer). Five lines exist: Zombie (Revenant Horror), Spider (Tarantula Broodfather), Wolf (Sven Packmaster), Enderman (Voidgloom Seraph), and Blaze (Inferno Demonlord).
Each tier costs coins to start and drops collection items used in powerful weapons and armor. Slayers are a core mid-to-late game money and gear path.
Zombie Slayer (Revenant Horror)
Start here — Revenant Horror is the entry point for most Skyblock players.
Unlock and start Tier 2
Complete Tier 1 once, then grind Tier 2 for consistent drops. You need roughly 10K–20K coins per attempt and basic combat stats (100+ HP recommended).
Gear: Revenant armor
Craft Revenant armor from Zombie Slayer drops. It provides healing on kill — essential for sustaining through boss fights without expensive potions.
Weapon: Reaper Falchion or Axe
Slayer weapons gain damage against their slayer type. Upgrade through the collection as you hit higher tiers.
Push to Tier 4 when ready
Tier 4 Revenant drops Wither Blood and other high-value materials. Only attempt when you stop dying consistently on Tier 3.
Spider and Wolf Slayers
Tarantula Broodfather and Sven Packmaster unlock after progressing earlier lines.
Spider: Tarantula armor
Tarantula armor reduces spider damage — mandatory for Tier 3+. Spider slayer is a strong money maker once stable.
Wolf: Sven Packmaster mechanics
Sven has true damage phases. Bring healing and learn to dodge howl attacks. Mastiff armor (Wolf collection) trades defense for massive HP.
Farm during events
Slayer XP boosts during Skyblock events cut grind time. Save slayer attempts for Mythological, Spooky, or combat-focused events.
Enderman Slayer (Voidgloom Seraph)
Voidgloom is where slayers become serious investment.
Budget 50M+ for entry
Voidgloom Tier 4 requires strong gear — Young Dragon or better, Aspect of the Dragons or equivalent, and health potions.
Learn beacon mechanics
Voidgloom places beacons that must be destroyed in order. Missing a beacon phase wastes the entire attempt.
Target Terminator materials
Voidgloom drops materials for the Terminator bow and other end-game items. This is a long-term farm — expect hundreds of kills.
Blaze Slayer (Inferno Demonlord)
The hardest slayer line — end-game only.
Prerequisites
Inferno requires Combat 22+, strong armor (Shadow Assassin or Necron tier), and millions in bank for consistent Tier 3+ attempts.
Attunement mechanics
Inferno uses fire and demon phases with strict DPS checks. Watch guide videos for your gear level before burning coins.
Dagger and fire equipment
Inferno drops feed into Hyperion-level progression and fire damage gear. Most players hire carries for early Inferno unlocks.
Slayer Money Making
Slayers cost coins to start but return profit through drops sold on the Auction House. Revenant and Tarantula are the most reliable money makers for mid-game players.
Track your profit per hour: (drop value − quest cost − potion cost) / time. If a tier loses money, drop down one tier until gear improves. Slayer XP unlocks permanent combat stats — even unprofitable runs can be worth it for unlocks.
