Hellhounds are a slayer task in OSRS known for their chance to drop a valuable smouldering stone and the occasional hard clue scroll. There is no slayer requirement to kill hellhounds, nor is there any slayer equipment required.

Hellhounds Strategy

Fastest XP

Since there are no multicombat cannonable areas with hellhounds, it is recommended to melee or ranged hellhounds while using a cannon. A fast way to kill them is by safespotting in the Stronghold Slayer Dungeon while using a cannon. The cannon attacks as if it's multicombat when you're in a safespot.


AFK Training

For the most AFK training, players can use a cannon and stand underneath it. This only lures the monsters, and doesn't use as many cannonballs. Hellhounds are also aggressive, so they can be AFKed for 10 minutes without a cannon.


Most Profit

For the most profit on a hellhounds task, you should kill Cerberus. The boss nets over 2M gp/hr and is the most profitable way to complete a hellhounds task. Cerberus requires 93 slayer to fight.
