In this guide, you will find the necessary information regarding the Aberrant and Deviant Spectres, including locations, combat levels, and Slayer Stats. We will go over the recommended gear setup, including a Melee Defensive Setup, Melee Prayer and Range Setup, and finally, a Magic Armor Setup.

Requirements

The first thing you need to know is that the Aberrant Spectre has a combat level of 96 and 90 hit points. These monsters can be found in two different locations: the Morytania Slayer Tower and the Stronghold Slayer Cave. They only attack with magic with a max hit of 11.

Slayer Requirement

Aberrant Spectres

As for the Slayer stats, you need a level of at least 60 to kill the specters, the good thing is that you will get 90XP per every kill. The combat attacks are strong, but with the proper defensive gear setup, the damage that you receive will be minimal.

Moving onto the defensive stats, these monsters have weak magic and range attacks, but even the rest of their attacks are not strong, so they are considerably easy to kill.

Deviant Spectres

Now, for the Deviant Spectre, it has a combat level of 169 and 190 hit points. Their only location is at the Catacombs of Kourend. This spectre only attacks with magic as well, but the max hit stands at 21 damage. It’s important to note that they are at a multi-combat zone, which makes it impossible to kill unless you use the protection from a magic prayer.

You will need Slayer level 60 to fight them, and you will get 194 XP per kill. These monsters have an outstandingly high defense and magic level, so it’s not recommended to use a magic setup instead of opting for a melee setup first and a range one next.

Recommended Items

Here are some items that you will find the most helpful in your Slayer task:

Rune Pouch

It can hold up to 16,000 of three different types of runes. You can fill it with your high alchemy runes and use it to store the rune drops you get from the monsters. You can buy it from the Slayer store for 1,250 slayer points.

Herb Sack

These monsters drop a lot of herbs, and this sack will help you save space from your inventory. It can store up to 30 of any unnoted grimy herb. You can buy it from the Slayer store for 750 points.

Seed Box

The monsters drop lots of seed, so it is good to bring a seedbox to free up inventory space. It can store six different types of seeds at any amount. To get it, you have to complete the Tithe farm mini-game or purchase it from the farmer Gricoller for 250 points.
