'''Infernal Mages''' are [[slayer monsters]] that require 45 [[Slayer]] to kill. They can be slain for their common [[death rune]] [[drops]] and their rarely dropped [[Mystic boots (dark)|dark mystic boots]] and [[Mystic hat (dark)|hat]]. When assigned as [[monsters]] for a [[Slayer assignment|slayer task]], beware of their accurate magic attack.
 
 
==Strengths and weaknesses==
 
Infernal Mages use a weaker version of the spell [[Fire Blast]] to attack the player, so it is recommended to wear [[dragonhide]] or [[Armour/Magic armour|magic armour]], which will reduce their chance to hit. Wearing [[Void Knight equipment|Void Knight armour]] is a good option because of its high magic defence. The [[Protect from Magic]] prayer is recommended for lower levels, as these mages hit extremely often. [[Prayer#Prayer Flicking|Prayer flicking]] is an effective strategy to minimise their damage output. They are weak to ranged, so it is advisable to bring the best [[bow]], [[Throwing knife|knives]] or [[Crossbow (weapon)|crossbow]] available.
 
 
(Be aware though that if you kill an Infernal Mage right before its spell animation has started it will still cast that spell even during its death animation)

==Trivia==
 
*Infernal Mages appear to be wielding a green version of the [[Slayer's staff]], along with a set of green, decaying [[mystic robes]].
 
*They appear to be casting [[Fire Blast]], however their max hit suggests they are actually casting [[Fire Strike]].
 
*Due to their high accuracy, damaging magic attacks, and lack of consistent valuable [[drops]], players often skip Infernal Mage [[Slayer assignment|tasks]].
