The Enchanted gem is an item used in the Slayer skill. They are sold by all Slayer Masters for one coin. These allow a player to contact the slayer master that has assigned them their current slayer assignment, where they can ask for tips, ask who the master is and where they are located, and most importantly see how many monsters they still have left to kill for their slayer assignment. An alternative to the gem is a worn Combat bracelet, which will update the player every 10 kills if it has 1 or more charges. The Enchanted gem is a component of the Commorb obtained from Sir Tiffy Cashien and also the Slayer ring. You cannot ask for a new Slayer task through the Gems, you have to go talk to the Slayer Master in person. The Enchanted gem has a right-click option to quickly check how many monsters are left for your assignment. Before that update, checking how many kills left would be interrupted by combat, so you had to wait until the monster was defeated before checking it.

Since the Social Slayer was introduced on 11th of July of 2012, players can now invite each other to simply speed up the slayer assignment (experience and drops aren't shared, unless using the Lootshare or Coinshare systems on a multiway combat zone to share the drops) by using the Ring of Slaying or an enchanted gem targeting on the partner. Note that both must be on the same assignment or one of both must have no assignment at all.

Trivia

• The Enchanted gem is referred to as a 'Slayer gem' when all the charges on a Ring of slaying are used. "The ring collapses into a Slayer gem, which you stow in your pack."
• There is a bug where after a slayer task has been finished, asking for tips will send the player back to the beginning of the conversation
• After While Guthix Sleeps has been completed it is still possible to contact Duradel by asking the master "Have you got any tips for me?" after a task has been completed, if you have the correct requirements they will pass you over to Duradel.
• Before the HD update, when contacting a slayer master via the gem, it would show the slayer master in a light blue oval instead of just a face.
• It is unknown what type of gem is used in the making of the Enchanted gem, as this is never elaborated on by Slayer masters, nor are there any options to find out when using the gem itself. The incredibly cheap price of buying one however, must mean that it is an incredibly common gem.
• There is a glitch that happens when the gem is swapped places in a players inventory that will allow player to right click the second item and show an option "kills left" as if the player is right clicking the gem. e.g. If the gem is swapped with steel arrows the option will say "steel arrows kills left".
• If you try to invite yourself to a Social Slayer task, you will get the message: If you want something done properly, you need to do it yourself...but not on this case.
