Fire giants can be assigned as a slayer task at level 65 combat by various Slayer masters.

While it is possible to use cannons in most places, none of the locations are in a multicombat area.

Location comparisons[edit | edit source]

In the Waterfall Dungeon and the Brimhaven Dungeon, they may be attacked safely with Ranged, Magic or halberd. The Waterfall Dungeon is the safest place to attack them from a range because of the safespot both behind the rock in the middle of the western room, and in the northern single-wide doorway where the giants are too large (2 spaces wide) to retaliate. There is also a safespot in the center room with 7 fire giants once they become unaggressive. Stand on one side of the long table with the Fire giant on the other side of it.

The Smoke Dungeon contains a few fire giants which are almost always empty as players are forced to bring a facemask or slayer helm to avoid smoke inhalation. There is one safespot near the entrance to Fareed, where there is 1 fire giant near a narrow 1 tile passageway between lava and a wall. This is however sub-optimal, as it is the only fire giant in the area thus forcing you to wait the respawn time of ~15 seconds.

The Stronghold Slayer Cave has a safespot that can be used with little to no interruption from other aggressive fire giants. However, you may only kill monsters in this cave if they are currently assigned to you by a Slayer Master.

The Catacombs of Kourend and nearby Giants' Den are favoured locations as they grant bonus slayer experience and drop both ancient shards and dark totem pieces. The Catacombs contain multiple safespots, one is along the east wall just beside the ramp down from the mutated bloodvelds and another is directly north overlooking the lower level which only becomes available after the 10 minute aggression timer expires. The Giants' Den contains many safespots as well, and allows the use of the Dwarf multicannon which cannot be placed in the Catacombs. You can tell fire giants apart in the Catacombs of Kourend as the level 109 giants wield clubs, while the level 104 giants wield flaming swords.

The Deep Wilderness Dungeon also contains fire giants; however, given its location deep in the Wilderness, it is usually only used for Wilderness Slayer. If completing a task here, it is recommended to complete the medium Wilderness Diaries to unlock a shortcut which significantly cuts travelling time and increases odds of escaping player killers.

The Karuulm Slayer Dungeon contains a safespot in the farthest north pocket as long as you lure them to the east wall of the northern pocket or by standing along the north wall of the entrance provided the monster you attack is north of you when you attack it.
