The hexcrest is a unique Slayer item that is dropped by jungle strykewyrms. It requires 20 Magic and 20 Defence to equip. When worn while slaying, it boosts the player's Magic damage by 12.5% and Magic accuracy by 12.5%. The hexcrest can be combined with a slayer helmet and focus sight to produce a full slayer helm, which provides the bonuses from all its components.

A hexcrest drop is mentioned in the Adventurer's Log with the message, "After killing a Jungle strykewyrm, it dropped a Hexcrest."

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.
