Fire giants can be assigned as a slayer task at level 65 combat by various Slayer masters. They are the strongest generic giants for their category, and are mostly known for their rune scimitar drops.

Fire giants can be found in an array of locations, most of which allow for the use of a dwarf multicannon. The lone exception is the Catacombs of Kourend, which does not allow a cannon, but is a multicombat area.

In most cases, players are recommended to kill fire giants at the Catacombs of Kourend, due to the multicombat area of the dungeon allowing for relative AFK and having access to the catacombs drop table. The Giants' Den is a second alternative, as while it is not multicombat, it allows for a cannon and the giants are the same as those in the catacombs, along with sharing its table.

If killing them as part of a task from Konar quo Maten, each location she can offer is relatively reasonable, apart from Brimhaven Dungeon due to the somewhat scattered spawns on the second floor and the few spawns on the first floor. Nonetheless, she does not assign them at the Smoke Dungeon, and even then, it is not recommended to kill them there as there are very few giants scattered across the dungeon.

If killing them as part of a task from Krystilia, the only location they can be found is the Deep Wilderness Dungeon, located around level 53 Wilderness. While somewhat close to the Mage Arena, its deep location makes it a prime hotspot for player killing, and it is highly recommended that players killing giants here have completed the Wilderness Medium Diary to unlock a shortcut between the fire and hill giant chamber, saving significant time and avoiding shadow spiders on the way.

Location comparisons[edit | edit source]

Location	Maplink	Amount	Multicombat	Cannonable	Safespottable	Notes
Brimhaven Dungeon	Maplink	8 (on 1^stfloor^[UK]2^ndfloor^[US]) 5 (on ground floor)	No	Yes	Yes	Requires a woodcutting axe in order to access. Requires a payment of 875 coins or a one-time deposit of 1,000,000 coins to Saniboch in order to enter the dungeon. While a cheaper cost of 5,000 trading sticks to his sister Banisoch can be used, it is further away and forces the players to traverse through aggressive dragons, and the axe is still needed regardless without 56 Agility.
Stronghold Slayer Cave	Maplink	12	No	Yes	Yes	Requires a Slayer task. Groups of 3 fire giants each separated by a safespot.
Deep Wilderness Dungeon	Maplink	5	No	Yes	Yes	There are several tiles along the western side of the lava pool where a cannon can be placed. There is a safespot in the southeastern tunnel, near the Monk of Zamorak.
Catacombs of Kourend	Maplink	12	Yes	No	Yes	Grant bonus Slayer experience and drop both Ancient shards and Dark totem pieces.

Karuulm Slayer Dungeon	Maplink	13	No	Yes	Yes	Setup a cannon in the middle of the room, stand in the entrance hallway for a safespot. This allows the cannon to fire rapidly even though it's a single combat area. Stamina pots recommended for this method to reload the cannon. Requires boots of stone, boots of brimstone or granite boots if the is not completed.
Smoke Dungeon	Maplink	6	No	Yes	Yes	Requires wearing a Facemask, Slayer Helmet, or Gas mask to avoid taking damage from the dungeon's smoke effect. The northern wall of the entrance can be used as a safespot, but only against the northwestern Fire Giant.
