Cave Slimes, as their name suggests, are slimy, greenish creatures that reside in the damp, dark caverns scattered throughout the game. Their distinctive appearance features a jelly-like body with a luminous, bioluminescent glow, making them easy to spot in the gloomy underground.

Cave Slimes Gear Setup

  • Weapon: You can use a melee weapon, such as a sword or scimitar, as Cave Slimes have low defense.
  • Armor: Wear armor with good Melee defensive stats.
  • Food: Bring some food for healing, as Cave Slimes can deal damage. Lobsters or better food is recommended.
  • Light Source: If you’re fighting Cave Slimes in Lumbridge Swamp Caves, ensure you have a light source.

Requirements:

  • Level 17 Slayer to kill Cave Slimes.
  • A light source, such as a lantern or a bullseye lantern, is required to navigate the Lumbridge Swamp Caves.

Killing Cave Slimes:

  1. Location: Cave Slimes are typically found in two locations:
    • Lumbridge Swamp Caves: Accessible through a small hut east of Lumbridge Swamp. Use your light source to navigate the caves.
    • Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon: Accessible through Dorgesh-Kaan, the cave goblin city. You’ll need a light source as well to navigate the dungeon.
  2. Combat: Attack Cave Slimes with your preferred melee weapon. They have low Hitpoints and aren’t very strong, so they are relatively easy to defeat.
  3. Looting: Cave Slimes drop various items, including coins, iron daggers, and noted pure essence. Collect any valuable drops and coins that they leave behind.

Cave Slime Drops:

Cave Slimes drop several items, such as:

  • Coins
  • Iron daggers
  • Noted pure essence

Additional Tips:

  • If you’re on a Slayer task to kill Cave Slimes, it’s a good opportunity to complete the task and earn Slayer experience.
  • Pay attention to your combat stats and equipment. With low defense, you may take damage, so having adequate healing food is essential.
  • Cave Slimes can be a decent source of low-level loot for beginners, but they are not highly profitable compared to other Slayer monsters.

Killing Cave Slimes is relatively simple and is often a task assigned by Slayer masters to low-level Slayer characters. While they may not be the most rewarding monsters in terms of drops, they provide a good starting point for Slayer training and are easy to defeat.
