OSRS Guide: Best Strategies to Kill Hellhounds OSRS Guide: Best Strategies to Kill Hellhounds Hellhou Group Admins Public Group active 10 months, 2 weeks ago Hellhounds have been around for a long time in Runescape. They first appeared on the scene nearly 20 years ago and are often offered as a slayer job to high and mid-level players. Their most well-known drop – and the only one – is the hard clue scroll. They are one of the most trusted sources in the game to obtain this item. They also have a formidable boss monster you can eliminate instead of regular hellhounds. This boss is named Cerberus is a formidable end-of-level monster, with extremely expensive drops. In this guide, I’m talking about your average dog next door hellhound. There is plenty to discuss because players have been preparing strategies to kill the monsters for over 20 years now. A little side notes The Hellhounds game had an update that changed the majority of the guides on this monster look a bit out of date so be sure to check this guide to find the most up-to-date information on how to take them down effectively. The Best Places To See And Kill Hellhounds Stronghold Slayer Cave Stronghold Slayer Cave this is among the best, if not the most effective, locations for killing them fast. It is accessible pretty early in the game and there are a lot of types of hellhounds here. The most appealing thing about this place is that you can cannon these beasts here. Cannoning hellhounds in a multi-combat area will be an amazing experience. They are a bit weak defensively and have extremely high hit points so you’ll not be disappointed with the amount of exp you’ll gain within an hour. Catacomb of Kourend The Catacomb of Kourend is my favorite place to kill them WITHOUT a cannon. You can find 9 hellhounds in this area for you to practice on, and it’s gorgeous Afk if done correctly. The main reason that I choose to take them down is the fact you can find totem pieces as well as fragments here. Also, it isn’t often overcrowded and resetting the agro is easy. Just run a bit across the altar in the center of the catacombs and return. Taverley Dungeon Taverley Dungeon be a wonderful trip if you have previously played Runescape before. This was the first location where hellhounds first appeared in the realm of Runescape. It is possible to spot them behind the rocks here and then use a cannon to kill them quickly. It is possible to find 13 eggs here which you can eliminate. It is important to bring an anti-poison potion in case you get poisoned by spiders you need to walk across. Wilderness Resource Area & Wilderness slayer cave – I am simply going to mention these in the event you choose to be a hunter slayer in the wild. If you do so there is a good chance that you are bound to face an assignment that’s going make you kill these. If you own one, you must go to one of these places. Be aware that if you are able to use a cannon but it’s going to be extremely risky. If you do die, you’re going to be losing a significant amount of money if you take lots of cannonballs and pieces. How Do Hellhounds Drop? Hellhounds are worth far higher than what they were be 19 years ago. However, they are still relatively low in terms of money per kill. They’re worth around 500 to 600 coins per kill on average. The most common kills for a Hellhound if you are in the Konar task is worth 1.5k. This difference is due to the brimstone keys worth an enormous amount of money. They unlock the chest behind Konar, the slayer master. Konar. Vile ashes – These ashes are an attractive new drop. The Hellhounds would previously drop regular ashes, but that has changed and now they are their 100% drop. They give 25 prayer experiences after scattering them. If you decide to give them away using the demonic offering spell you will receive 75 experience. They’re worth 425 coins subject to market prices. I suggest you simply leave them on the ground. Picking them up is going to cost you your time. Smoking stones – Yes the hellhounds have an 4.3 mil drop. It is not recommended to try to grind for it. They drop this on average each time they kill 32 700. You are better off spending those hundreds of hours doing another monster , if you are looking to make money. Also, the stone can be dropped by the hellhound boss named Cerberus. Cerberus drops it at a greater rate of drop. The stone can be used to improve the dragon axe, the harpoon and pickaxe. Hard clue scrolls will prove to be the most reliable source for clues to the hard in the whole game. They have a chance of dropping them 1 out 64 kills. Those are some of some of the most effective numbers on the table. However, if you do the difficult combat achievements that will take about 60 kills. If you kill them in the wilderness wearing a ring of riches (i) in the first instance), the numbers are more favorable to you. Chances of getting one are one in 32 and 1 in 30 if you achieved the tough combat feats. Keys for Brimstone – They only drop when you are given hellhounds as a slayer task by the slayer master Konar. They have a 1 in 95 chance of dropping and that’s not terrible at all. They can provide you with as much as 500k of loot in a single day if you have a little luck. Strategies To Kill Hellhounds Major upgrade! Hellhounds are now considered a demonic creature. That means anything that has an effect on demons can be used against them. Hellhounds are quite powerful. They are above level 120 combat, and they strike pretty hard and accurately. Their defense, however, is basically nonexistent. Killing them with melee and distance is a breeze. If you want to take them down You should take them out in one-on-one combat with your best armor and food with high healing. Another option, which is that I would prefer is to protect yourself from melee , and then killing them in multi-combat. The best way to do this is to go to the Catacombs in Kourend. There, you are going be able kill them pretty quickly without a cannon. If you’re able to make use of the cannon, make use of it to allow the job to be accomplished quickly. Deadly Hellhounds With Melee I’m going to explain what the top choices for armor and weapon are. I will also give some alternatives that may be helpful and cost-effective if not have the finest slot gear. Head slot – If you are working on a slayer mission then use the slayer Helm (i) as your head slot. This is the most effective option that you have. If you are not, and you just want to be able to find the answers as quickly as you can, you’ll require the Neitiznot faceguard. If you don’t meet the required requirements or money, a normal helmet made of neitiznot can work. Necklace slot – The finest type of necklace you could carry here is an amulet of torture. If you do not have one or an amulet of the ugliness or rage will work in this case too. Cape slot . The most effective cape you can bring here will be an infernal cape. A fire cape or an Ardougne cape 4 are likely to be a fantastic alternative if you are going to use prayer, and you want to make a significant impact. Chest slot – If you aren’t fighting them with melee prayer enabled, you must use the chestplate of a bandos as you chest armour. If you are fighting them using prayer, you should use proselyte armor to protect your prayer bones. However, the bandos chestplate also gives some bonus to your prayer, so you can use it in the event that you have prayer potion to burn. Legs slot – For the slot for legs, you must use bandos tassets for its prayer and the strength bonus. You also have the option of proselyte leg proselytes when you’re using an eulogy prayer. It is still possible to use bandos tassets, if you’re praying, as they give the benefit of a (small) reward for prayers. Weapon slot – This ought to be the best weapon available to you. You must have DPS above anything else here to kill them effectively. The grazier rapier can be the most effective weapon to take them down. But, if on a tight budget whip is a good option to kill them. To put it in perspective the arclight’s DPS is similar with the DPS of an Rapier. In the lower levels of attack and strength, its DPS is higher than the of a rapier. Yet, I don’t consider it a good idea to use it in this case. This could result in the loss of lots of shards which could be better used elsewhere. Shield slot – In this case, the Avernic Defender is going to be fantastic. It offers massive attack bonuses and ensures you hit almost every single hit on them. It’s a costly alternative, so you could additionally use a dragon defense or rune one. The hellhounds’ defense is such that you won’t have much trouble eliminating them using less effective gear for this game. Ranging slot I would recommend taking either a Rada’s blessing (4) or any other god blessing. This will help you save some prayers while combating these monsters. The Ra’s Blessing (4) has a plus 2 prayer bonus, which means it is a bit better than the regular god scroll, which has a +1 bonus. Gloves slot – If you already own them, then fierce gloves will be the most effective here. You can also utilize the barrows gloves without issue. Another option that is a good one is the regen bracelet , or the combat bracelet. These will give you the advantages you need to kill the hellhounds fairly easily. Boots slot – In my opinion, primordial boots are a waste of money when you’re in a budget-conscious position. If you’re lucky enough to have dragon boots, that is more than enough to enjoy a good time fighting hellhounds. Ring slot – There is only one real option here. The berserker ring (i) is going to give you up to two extra max hits which are simply amazing. If you’re on a very tight budget you can consider one of the warrior rings (i). These rings are quite useful, but are an obvious drop in the quality of the Berserker ring. Special attack weapon – I believe the most effective weapon to use in order to save some cash or food, is the saradomin gods ‘ word. The godsword can heal your hit points with 50 percent of the damage you deal during your special attack, as well as your prayer points will be rewarded with 25% of the damage you take with your particular attack. If you want to do damage, the best option here is the dragon claws, they will strike these hellhounds forcefully. A less expensive option, but one that is still very effective according to me is the dragon dagger.
