[[File:Strykewyrms.jpg|right|Strykewyrms]]<br />
The humungous and deathly [[strykewyrm]]s are happy to harmlessly tunnel about ''RuneScape'', but they have trained senses that can smell a [[slayer]] from a mile off. Those who are assigned a strykewyrm task will find that they lure strykewyrms from the ground, but they may wish they hadn’t; once roused, a strykewyrm will do their very best to take them down!<br />
<br />
Three breeds of strykewyrm are known to the [[Slayer Master|Slayer masters]] of ''Runescape'': [[jungle strykewyrm]]s (level 73 Slayer) can be found near the coast north-west of [[Oo'glog]]; [[desert strykewyrm]]s (level 77 Slayer) stir the sand east of [[Al Kharid]] (over the stile by the palace); and [[ice strykewyrm]]s (level 93 Slayer) churn up the ice in a cave near to where you find the [[Muspah]] (but only after you’ve completed the ''[[The Tale of the Muspah|Tale of the Muspah]]''). Ice strykewyrm assignments are unique to [[Kuradal]]. You will need to own a [[Fire cape|TzHaar fire cape]] to be assigned them, and you will need to wear a fire cape to inflict any damage.<br />
<br />
As with other Slayer creatures, each strykewyrm has a rare drop, which should prove to be very useful for slayers, [[Magic|mages]] and [[Ranged|rangers]]. The jungle and desert strykewyrms, respectively, drop the [[hexcrest]] and the [[focus sight]], which give combat and Slayer bonuses for Magic and Ranged (much like the [[black mask]] already does for melee). Indeed, anyone with a [[slayer helmet]], focus sight and hexcrest can combine them all into a [[full slayer helmet]], which incorporates all of these items’ bonuses into one slayertastic piece of headgear.<br />
<br />
The ice strykewyrms’ unique drop, the [[staff of light]], can be used as a [[Slayer's staff|slayer staff]], has stats roughly equivalent to a [[Dragon equipment|dragon weapon]], causes +15% Magic damage, has a [[Special attacks|special attack]] that reduces any melee damage that is received by 50% for one minute AND has a 1/8 chance of not using up runes each time a damage-dealing spell is cast with it!<br />
<br />
The [[Runes|rune]]-saving effect can be combined with a full set of [[combat robes]] (improving the chance to 1/5) or [[battle robes]] (for an impressive 1/2 chance of saving runes). Also, any time the staff does not save your runes, the robes themselves will still have their usual chance of saving you any [[Mind rune|mind]], [[Chaos rune|chaos]], [[Death rune|death]] or [[blood rune]]s used by the combat spell you are casting. These robe sets can both be earned as rewards from the ''[[Fist of Guthix]]'' minigame.<br />
<br />
From beneath it devours... Happy slaying everyone!<br />
