it would be very interesting to see the time series of slayer count especially how it changed after CUB was implemented
I never read this forum but stopped by and had to comment on this!! I think it’s crazy to have them and not use them - I use every slayer I keep. I sell most lower end ones (and even higher end - sold two silver vanqs in the last month) but I have power & vanq slayers I use regularly. A power exo q-staff is my favorite non-tamer way to farm tbh, I use my vanq reptilian death black staff to farm leather from lizardmen, I use my silver power LBA for liches all the time... Eff it, why not use them man it’s all in good fun!!!
I only have 1 'nice' slayer, a power silver double axe which is used in instances. Other than that, all of mine are used out and about. Not sure if I would ever use > force in the wilds as so many of my characters have so little magery they regularly fail recalling with scrolls and so die to most reds.... Slayers are great - a might slayer axe regularly hits between 40-80 with a lumberjack. They really open up hunting options.
i have a power or vanq of every super slayer for a fencer an when im active i use them in the wild. i bought them to use not to just look at them.
