    Would SLX cranks with a Hope 34T chainring fir together?

    And, do I need any other fitings?

    Yep and yep (short chainbolts, possibly chain device)

    should fit fine (assuming they are both 4 arm and the BCD is the same)

    if you’re not using a bash ring, you’ll need shorter chainring bolts.

    How can i find out if the BCD is the same?

    And do i need a bashring?

    No, you don’t need a bash.
    I have a hope ring on a XT chainset so a SLX should be fine. Just get a 4 bolt ring.
    How are you going to stop the chain bouncing off the ring?

    The chain does not always bounce of the ring. I used to ride 1 x9 on a hardtail many years ago before it was fashionable and I never dropped a chain riding around Thetford Forest. However Thetford is tame compared to some places so it depends on where you ride, how you ride and if you are riding a full susser.

    Eventually my cassette and chain wore out I replaced it with a single sproket.
