Marrentill tar

Marrentill tar is a tier 50 members item worn in the ammunition slot for Ranged, with a high alchemy value of 1 coins. At least 7 monsters drop it. The easiest is Scarab mage (level 75, 1/128); the best rate is Scabaras ranger (level 77), at 1/128, about one every 16 kills.

“A thick, foul-smelling, tar-like substance with an orange tinge.”

Ironman verdict

You can also make it yourself: it takes 31 Herblore and gives 42.5 Herblore XP, using Clean marrentill and 15 × Swamp tar. There is one other recipe below. Where the materials come from: Clean marrentill (made with 9 Herblore); Swamp tar (sold by Lletya General Store). Making ten takes 10 × Clean marrentill and 150 × Swamp tar and gives 425 Herblore XP. Reaching level 31 Herblore takes 14,833 XP in total; the Herblore calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Herblore guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Marrentill tar: Orange salamander. It is worn in the ammunition slot at tier 50 as ranged gear; compare it with every other piece on the Ammunition list. Marrentill tar is members-only. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 1 coins.
