Grotesque Guardians

A two-target boss on the Slayer Tower roof, requiring a gargoyle task. Drops granite equipment and the Noon pet.

MembersAdvancedLow riskHands-on

Dusk and Dawn are fought together and the fight has more moving parts than most Slayer bosses — falling rocks, a healing phase, a prayer-draining attack and a period where only one of the pair can be damaged.

It needs an active gargoyle task and a brittle key for each entry, so the real cost of a session includes the Slayer points or the killcount to get the task in the first place.

The regular loot is thin. Granite items, the pet and the ability to make a full granite set are the draws, which makes this a rare-chasing method rather than a steady earner.

Because the roof is a short walk from Canifis, banking between kills is cheap. That mitigates the supply cost of a fight that will drain a lot of prayer while you are learning it.

What you actually do

1Take a gargoyle Slayer task, then use the brittle key on the Slayer tower roof.

The granite items and the pet are the draws, but the regular loot is thin — this is a rare-drop method.
