How to make money with slayer

[Phicinico]

I've heard that slayer is a really good skill to train as it both levels up your combat stats and slayer level at the same time but at what level do I start to make money? 58 slayer btw

The big bucks are at 95+ skayer, but you can make pretty good money once you unlock Corrupted Scarabs. The Corrupted Scorpions share the same drops and are lower level, but there's ALWAYS somebody or a bot camping them.

I've been working on 200m Slayer this Summer and from what I can tell, especially from observing others, is that there's some sort of predisposition to think you lose money training Slayer. From some of the gear I've been noticing modern Slayers wearing confirms their predisposed expectation that it's more of a sink than a gain. Here's some advice to save you money.

• Make use of Demonhorn Necklace & Blood Necklaces (Dungeoneering Necklace upgrades)

This item is incredibly useful: when using this item on a task which drops big bones (any bones) you can literally Soul Split / Turmoil your way through tasks without an issue and for free. It restores Prayer Points based on bone tier. I've seen a lot of Slayers using Essence of Finality on such tasks as Dark Beasts, Airut or Chaos Giants - stop it. You're wasting money and making your task longer.
Vice versa, the Blood Shard attachment on a [DG] Necklace can sometimes be replaced by a Souls on task and be more useful. Most people use a Souls on a task in which they have to protect overhead against something. For instance, Soul Devourers [Salawa] task usually consists of Aggression potions, Overload and overhead Prayer. It would make more sense to bring a[n] [amulet of] Souls to Corrupted Workers since they're stronger, however Salawa's power can be circumvented in the same way with the use of Devotion and Scrimshaw of Vampyrism. The Souls only provides 10% more overhead protection, (and a little more HP leeching but you won't be using overhead SS in this case). Unless you really need it, it's a waste of money to use. Essence of Finality costs approx 28m to repair, Souls 2-3m - if you're hardly using Souls you're hardly spending money and subsequently making more money.

• Spring Cleaner / Advanced Gold Accumulator

Spring Cleaner: Self explanatory - alching your items, especially Rune salvage drops, increases passive GP drops to your pouch and saves you time from running to pick items up. Advanced Gold Accumulator, in the same way, picks up all gold drops by NPCs:
"The Advanced Gold Accumulator is a permanent non-degrading version of the gold accumulator and will automatically collect coins dropped by monsters for the player, and add them to the player's money pouch. The Advanced Gold Accumulator destroys 10% of the coins it gathers."

There are a multitude of other Quality of Life options that can make your task practically free. You're not there yet at level 58 but it'd be best to start preparing to save now than later. Making money on tasks requires preference, a lot of grinding and repetition. You'll end up sacrificing xp for gp or the other way around.
Make sure you have a sustainable gold to xp method and favourite the correct monsters for you. Personally I'm not a fan of the 'sweaty' tasks yet I make 1.5b per 20-30m Slayer xp. Which some would say is terrible but it's better than nothing for not even a fraction of an investment.

Thank you very much for the detailed response I'll be trying out some of these methods.

75+ slayer is also a good point, since you'll unlock gargoyles which are fast to kill (if you buy faster killing blows with slayer points) and drop a ton of salvage to alch, being around 1-2m/hour if i'm remembering correctly.
85 slayer also gives abyssal demons which are a good training spot if you have aggression potions and drop a ton of ashes, salvage, etc.

One of the best tasks in the game Living Wyverns at 96 slayer. They can be pretty hard for inexperienced people and require Priff unlocked for Wyvernfire potions, but they can be between 8m - 15m per hour in JUST normal drops. All of their rare drops (except for the Draconian Visage) are worth millions too. If you get lucky and get a Wyvern Crossbow drop, its a free 100m profit on the spot.

This is going to sound odd but take everything. For me 99-120 I probably netted 700m from ground drops. This still also depends on task priority for me I did money or slower tasks instead of skipping and rushing the skill.

Everything past 96 is the big bucks, yeah. Anything that isn't good money is usually good xp, like Hydrix Dragons.
