The Tormented Demons are one of the strongest hitting monsters within Grinderscape. Not only can they hit incredibly high with all three attack styles, they also have a large amount of hit points so it can take a while to get the kill. Using magic is the best option as you can stand away from them avoiding the high hitting melee attacks and if using blood barrage, you will be getting healed as you deal damage. Using melee will almost certainly get you killed.

Location

You will first need a flame fragment, which can be obtained from a numerous amount of monsters in Grinderscape. Giant bats are quite easy to kill with a high drop rate of the flame fragment though. Once you have the flame fragment, teleport to the Brimhaven dungeon via Combat Training teleport. Once there, walk south down the stairs. Follow the path to the east when you get into what looks like a lobby of sorts, guarded by a Dog. After a while, you will see a hole in the ground. With your flame fragment in hand, climb down it. From here follow the widest tunnel and you will end up at the tormented demons.
Here are some images to help you:

Just keep walking by that way and you'll see a hole. Click on the hole to enter the dungeon.

Gear and Inventory Set-Up

For most bosses, damage-per-second (DPS) is more important than defense because it helps you to maximize kills per hour. Here, though, defense is much more important. As the following section describes, each time you access this boss, you are essentially spending 110m. Therefore, your goal should be to maximize the number of kills you can get per trip, rather than maximizing the speed of those kills.

Here is the best gear to use in each gear slot:

Fighting Strategy

The best strategy to killing the Tormented Demons is also very simple and requires little effort. All you have to do is use the protection from magic spells while standing out of reach of the Tormented Demons melee attack. Since you will be using blood barrage you will be healed as you deal damage, combining this with the automatic healing of a bunyip will greatly reduce the risk of dying and you will most likely be getting healed faster than you will be taking damage. Just beware that you will not be avoiding all damage as the Tormented Demons will still hit very high, quite often with their ranged attacks which will still put even the best geared player in risk of dying.

The tormented demon switches the Protection Prayer every 32 damage received and the shield will absorb 75% of received damage, in order to remove the shield, player must inflict a damage from the 'Darklight sword', the sword is a reward from crystal chest.

The Tormented Demon switches the attack type every 15 seconds.

Drops

The main reason to visit the Tormented Demons are to try your luck for the very valuable dragon claw drop if you want to make a huge bit of money. However, there are a lot of other unique items unfortunately they are not worth a lot. There is also a very rare chance to get a Tormented Demon pet upon killing this boss.
