Infernal ashes are a 100% drop from black demons, abyssal demons, tormented demons, nechryaels, and most demon bosses. They can be scattered for 62.5prayer experience, taken to the Ectofuntus for 250 prayer experience or used at a POH gilded altar with both incense burners lit for 218.7 prayer experience. Note that if you use demon ashes on the Ectofuntus, you do not need to use them on the bone grinder to produce Bonemeal.

They can also be used when killing the demons mentioned above to fill an Infernal Urn. It takes 25 infernal ashes to fill an Infernal Urn. A full Infernal Urn grants 1875 experience when teleported (equivalent to 75 experience per infernal ashes, which is an extra 20%).

These ashes are often a cheaper alternative to Dragon bones, although prices often fluctuate, and players should look into the experience-cost ratio of each before any major training.

Common collection methods

A player scattering some Infernal ashes.

Players that have the ability to kill Abyssal Demons can "camp" in the Canifis slayer tower to kill them. This method for getting ashes is very similar to camping at green dragons because both are 100% drops. Using any beast of burden familiar gives you a great advantage because it allows you to carry more infernal ashes back to the bank. With 96 summoning, players can summon a Pack yak and use their Winter storage scrolls to send ashes back to the bank, allowing them to stay there for very long periods of time and making bank trips less often. Currently the prices for infernal ashes are Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[". coins, so this method can be used as a good money making method or as a good way to get prayer experience. Abyssal Demons also drop Abyssal whips, making Abyssal demons a far better option than camping any type of dragon currently (with the exception of frost dragons). This method has the ability to make between 400,000 - 750,000 per hour, not including Abyssal whip drops. The minimum is around 400,000 per hour which requires you to kill 3 abyssal demons every 1 minute (this is relatively easy for most 120+ players).

Another good way to collect infernal ashes is to kill black demons in the Taverley Dungeon. With this method you can either take high level defensive armour with good food and/or a bunyip, or you may take armour with high prayer bonus to use protect from melee or deflect melee continuously. It is recommended to have 70 agility (for the pipe shortcut), and a teleport to leave the area. Black demons also have decent drops, which makes this method very profitable for people who do not have 85 slayer for abyssal demons.

For those who have completed the Underground Pass quest, there is a way of gaining these ashes from comparatively low level demons, specifically Doomion, Othanian, and Holthion, the level 91 demons that guarded Iban's shadow during the quest. There are a couple of drawbacks to gaining ashes this way, the main one being that it can be a hassle to get there, as you need a bow, at least one arrow, a spade, a rope and a lot of energy just to get back to them. (or you could just enter the Underground Pass from the elves' side, and travel back through the well of voyage, placing you "already there") This is not a good way to collect ashes if you want to sell them or use them at POH altars or the Ectofuntus. They don't have any other drops, and it appears that experience gained from actual combat is reduced. However all three are easily ranged or maged, and if you are more interested in gaining prayer experience through the use of urns or just by scattering the ashes you could gain quite a lot of experience in a short amount of time. For those who prefer to melee Kamen is still available for food as he was during the quest, if you're willing to pay or can stomach his brew.

One of the fastest ways to collect infernal ashes, yet an expensive way, is to use chinchompas or burst/barrage spells on nechryael in the Chaos Tunnels. This is a multi-combat location, so many can be killed at one time. The occasional rune boot drop is also a decent bonus. This method of collecting ashes is risky, however, due to the use of protect from melee / deflect melee being required (or, alternatively, the use of soul split occasionally for those who can use it). Also, the risk of PKers in the short journey through the wilderness to the tunnels is a potential hazard, but this can be avoided using the Dagon'Hai route.

Many higher levels tend to leave infernal ashes on the ground while training slayer on Abyssal Demons or Nechryaels in the Slayer Tower. This can be used to the advantage of lower levelled players who are unable to kill these monsters themselves, as they can pick up these ashes, and bank them in nearby Canifis. This method of collection is made faster if the player has completed Desert Treasure and has 50 Construction, allowing them to have a portal chamber with Kharyll Teleport. As with all the above methods a Beast of Burden can be used to increase the amount of ashes collected.

Cost and XP analysis

This table can be used to compare and decide on how to train with the ashes for the most desired cost versus experience gained. Notice how the cost in coins per XP point varies greatly depending on how the ashes are used — but also remember that the different methods have different training speeds.

Trivia

File:Demon butler infernal ashes.png
Butler refusing to take noted ashes
  • Before 25 February 2011 one could un-note infernal ashes using a butler at a POH, Jagex changed this by implementing a hidden update, thus they can no longer be un-noted by any butler.
  • On the first day of release the Grand Exchange price for Infernal Ashes was set at 1700 coins. However the ashes were actually selling for over 5000 coins, which was more inline with the price of bones that give similar prayer experience.
