Other options by slot
The best magic pick for each slot and the next best options. Each percentage is the DPS you lose by swapping in just that item against Ice demon.
Mechanics
It sits in an ice storm until the four braziers are lit with kindling.
An icefiend on each brazier tries to drain it every 3 to 4 ticks. Once active it throws a snow boulder or casts Ice Burst, both hitting a 3x3, so step a few tiles off your spot. It picks based on your prayer: missiles means only the boulder, magic means only Ice Burst. Pray missiles, since Ice Burst is hard to see and faster. All damage is cut by 67% except fire spells, which do 250%, and demonbane weapons, whose bonus goes up 15%.
Which style: Fire spells. Everything else is cut by 67%.
