- Summary
During your time in Gielinor, you’ll encounter all types of creatures, people, and bosses. However, most gamers won’t visit certain locations because the enemies don’t provide the best XP rates that are found in most guides. Therefore, Training Slayer is a wonderful skill since it will take you all around the map to places you’d never go to.
Also, you’ll have to kill all kinds of creatures, which can drop rare loot. However, high-tier monsters will require having a certain Slayer level to kill, which makes it a vital skill to train. Gaining levels is extremely slow, but players who love PVM shouldn’t find this as a negative.
Furthermore, iron man accounts are limited to recourses, which means they rely on killing monsters to gain supplies. Some items are exclusive to Slayer monsters, making it essential to train.
To train the Slayer, you’ll need to receive kill tasks from masters. They are located all around Gielinor and have different requirements. Today, we will discuss everything you need to know about Konar quo Maten, a mid-high tier master.
Who Is Konar?
Konar quo Maten’s name translated means “Konar the Hunter”. She is a Slayer master that lives on the summit of Mount Karuulm, which is in Kahlith. To get a task from Konar, you’ll need level 75 combat level. Therefore, making the Slayer master have somewhat difficult requirements.
The best method to reach her is via Rada’s Blessing 3 or 4 teleport, which will take players to the top of the mountain. The blessing is obtained by completing the Kourend and Kebos hard or elite tasks. Also, you can use the fairy ring network and use the C-I-R code.
Moreover, players can use the NPC contact spell to talk to her and gain assignments. This means you won’t need to travel so far and get the tasks you want. However, it won’t work at first because you need to speak to her before it becomes an option.
What Are Slayer Points?
Players will receive Slayer reward points after completing an assignment. The amount varies depending on how many tasks have been completed in a row. Also, for Konar, if you’ve completed the Kourend and Kebos diaries, the number of points increases by 10%. Although she is the 3rd highest tier Slayer master, Konar provides the 2nd most reward points.

- Skip Task: Spending 30 points to skip a task can be crucial to get the best XP rates. Some tasks are very tedious and are better to skip than waste time doing them.
- Block Task: Unlocking this perk will skip the assignment without penalties and permanently remove being given in the future. Each block costs 100 points. However, only 6 tasks can be blocked because each creature requires 50 quest points.

FAQ
Question: What Creatures Should I Put On My Block List?
Answer: Slayer is one of the slowest skills to train in OSRS. Therefore, you should only take tasks that provide either good XP rates or high GP per hour. Slayer points are gathered by completing tasks consecutively. They can be spent on various rewards that will help during the Slayer grind.
The best unlock in Slayer is blocking tasks. This means the Slayer master will never assign that specific task again. This is brilliant for avoiding annoying, grindy, or difficult assignments. These are the creatures you’ll want to block since they have little benefits when killing them. They are neither good XP nor high-money makers.
* Fire Giants
* Bloodvelds
* Rune Dragons
* Ankou
* Lizardmen
* Mutated Zygomites
Question: What Are Boss Tasks?
Answer: OSRS features an abundance of bosses that vary in requirements and skill cap. Adventurers can purchase the “Like a Boss” ability for 200 reward points to receive boss tasks from Slayer masters. After every complete task, players will earn 5k Slayer experience and the XP given per kill.

* Cerberus
* Chaos Elemental
* Chaos Fanatic
