The hexcrest is a unique Slayer item that boosts Magic damage by 15% versus Slayer assignment monsters. It is dropped by jungle strykewyrms and requires 20 Magic and 10 Defence to equip. The hexcrest can be combined with a slayer helm and focus sight to produce a full slayer helm, which carries over the hexcrest's bonus to Magic damage.

With a hexcrest, a chaotic staff, an arcane stream necklace and an extreme magic potion or equivalent, Magic damage can be boosted by up to 71%. Fire Surge's maximum hit rises to 478 damage with this bonus, and Ice Barrage can hit up to 513 damage. A ferocious ring adds an additional 40 points of damage to successful hits, but only works in Kuradal's Dungeon.

On the day this item was released, players bought them for upwards of 25 million coins, utilising junk trading. It crashed in the next few weeks in the Grand Exchange, falling over 60% in 4 weeks.

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