The Red Salamander is the second strongest salamander. It is caught with the hunter skill at level 59, and provides some of the best experience rates in the game for that level. Salamanders can be used as weapons, that attack with both ranged and magic. Although, they are not particularly strong or useful in PvM situations. Other types of salamanders include the Black Salamander, Orange Salamander and Swamp Lizards.

Red Salamander Experience Rates
At level 59, you can only lay 3 traps at one time. So, experience rates are only 80k hunter per hour. Whereas, at level 60+ you can lay 4 traps at one time, resulting in around 100k hunter experience per hour. At level 80 you unlock 5 traps, however, it is not worth staying here that long. At level 67 you unlock Black Salamanders and should move on to catching them for higher experience rates.
