The corrupted slayer helmet is a tier 85 slayer helmet requiring level 70 Defence to equip. It is made by upgrading a mighty slayer helmet for 1,000 Slayer points and a corrupted gem at any Slayer Master, although subsequent upgrades will only cost 100 Slayer points. The mighty slayer helmet must be worn, and the corrupted gem must be in the inventory for the upgrade to work. It cannot be stored in the keepsake box.

The slayer helmet is an all-class item, which means its armour stat is used in full when defending against any style. It has the same base stats as a Refined anima core helm of Sliske, another tier 85 hybrid helm. It can also be used as an enchanted gem.

For 500 Slayer points, players can learn how to fuse rings of slaying and ferocious rings to full slayer helmets, gaining some of the benefits of both—teleports and the 4% damage boost in Kuradal's Dungeon from the ferocious ring but without the ring of life property.

Effects

The corrupted slayer helmet combines the effects of several pieces of head slot Slayer equipment, all of which are required to create it:

• It provides a 14.5% boost in damage and accuracy to Melee, Ranged, and Magic attacks against the player's current Slayer assignment. The boost does NOT work on Shattered Worlds' mobs.
• Like a spiny helmet, it protects players from wall beasts when traversing the Lumbridge Swamp Caves.
• Like earmuffs, it deafens the screams of banshees.
• Like a face mask, it protects players from the dust in the Smoke Dungeon and from stat-draining attacks by dust devils.
• Like a nose peg, it blocks stat-draining attacks by aberrant spectres.
• Every 20 souls added to the Slayer Codex add a 1% boost to Slayer experience gained while wearing the helmet, up to 5% for adding 100 souls.
• It increases the chance of capturing a soul in an ushabti by 5% when killing an assigned monster or with 120 Slayer.
• It can be used to view the Slayer codex while worn.

The helmet retains the abilities of all the items used to make it. It still gives the effects that the black mask, hexcrest, and focus sight do, but with better defence and bonuses, making it one of the best helms for Slayer assignments. If the black mask still has charges, they must first be expended.

With the addition of Anachronia, a corrupted slayer helmet can be placed on the Slayer helmet stand of a Tier 3 Slayer Lodge. This allows the player to have the effects of the slayer helmet at all times, without needing to wear it.

• The player does not get the armour, PvP damage reduction, ferocious ring effects or teleports, ring of slaying teleports or access to the Slayer codex, regardless of unlocks or helmet tier. These effects are obtained only by wearing the helmet.

Damage analysis

The damage boost from any type of slayer helmet applies only to the variable portion (the damage between the ability's minimum and maximum hit) of damage. Typically, abilities have ability damage ranges where the maximum hit is 5 times the minimum hit. For example, for an ability with a damage range of 20% to 100%, the slayer helmet will not apply to first 20% of ability damage, but will modify the additional damage over that. With the exception of auto attacks, this means that slayer helmets will always provide a total lower damage increase than displayed.

Slayer helmets do not work on bleeds and burns.

Recolouring

For 4,000 Loyalty points, players can buy the ability to change the colour of their slayer helmet, and this works for all variations of slayer helmets except the most basic slayer helmet. By using the helmet on Xuan, Dilwyn, or Wafa, it can be recoloured to the colours blue, yellow, red, and green. Recolouring the full slayer helmet also changes the colour of the backplate to pastel pink. This ability cannot be refunded, but once bought, players can change the colour of their helmet as many times as they like. The pink backplate can only be removed/changed by reverting to the original colour. The four versions are:

• Corrupted slayer helmet (red)
• Corrupted slayer helmet (blue)
• Corrupted slayer helmet (green)
• Corrupted slayer helmet (yellow)

• Although corrupted slayer helmets require level 70 Defence to buy, players who do not have level 80 Defence cannot buy it from the Slayer reward shop. It is unclear if this was intended or a bug.
