Strategy for Kurasks

Kurask's slayer tasks are easy to do. They only use melee with a max hit of 11, and protect from Melee completely prevents damage from their attacks. Ensure to use any of the required weapons mentioned above to damage them. Note that they are immune to damage from any other weapon, poison, venom, and damage from the Dwarf multicannon. While praying melee, use your best weapon to attack them in the slayer task area, since there is less competition and more spawns, leading to better XP rates.

Safespot Strategy

 If you want to save prayer potions, use the safespot in any of the locations below while attacking with ranged.

• Safespot in north-west corner of the Fremennik Slayer Cove lower level.

• Safespot available on the east side of the task-only area.
