The Soulgazer is a level 99 Slayer monster and a type of Stalker located in Daemonheim that can only be fought while Dungeoneering. Its combat level is 105. It attacks all players within reach at once with an accurate, magic based yellow orb attack that can easily hit over 250. All magic damage can be prevented by using protect from magic or deflect magic. The much sought after hexhunter bow is only obtainable as a drop from a Soulgazer.

The Soulgazer may be damaged with any style by anyone who is 99 slayer or has used potions to boost to this level. Deflect magic damage and Vengeance will also damage it. The damage of Wrath and the effect of the blood necklace can deal damage to the Soulgazer at any slayer level.

Soulgazers can technically appear on all floors, but it is extremely unlikely and possibly impossible to find one below the Abandoned II theme floors. They seem to be extraordinarily rare on Abandoned II floors, somewhat uncommon on Occult floors, and relatively common but still rare on Warped floors. Soulgazers can appear to a team in which no one has 99 Slayer along a bonus path, in which case a survivalist's potion may be used to kill it.

There is still major uncertainty over what factors affect the spawning of this monster. A factor in question is certainly the number of level 99 slayers in the party. Having one 99 slayer will certainly allow for Soulgazers to be on the critical path, but it seems there is no obvious advantage to having five 99 slayers, and it is possible to encounter a soulgazer with no level 99 slayers. It is also unconfirmed whether or not Soulgazers can be found in solo floors, or below the Abandoned II theme floors. There is speculation that there are allotted "room values" that may not allow for Soulgazers to spawn in solo floors or low floor themes. Also mentioned above was the uncertainty over how the drop system works.

A Soulgazer appears during Salt in the Wound, where Elfinlocks slays one and receives a Hexhunter bow, before being crushed by rocks because of Ezekial Lovecraft's explosive entry into the dungeon.

As of April 19, 2012, Slayer monster frequency in Dungeons has been increased by nearly double, making an encounter with Soulgazers a far more common occurence on attempted floors than they previously were.
