Ironman notes
- You need 60 Slayer to damage it, so plan the Slayer levels before the trip.
- Counts as a Slayer task from Jacquelyn, Raptor, Vannaka, Mazchna, Chaeldar, Sumona, Duradel, Kuradal and Laniakea (task: aberrant spectres, ghosts and undead). Killing it on task earns Slayer XP and points.
- Weak to arrows (bows) and thrown weapons: bring that style for faster kills.
- Aggressive: it attacks on sight, which is handy for AFK kills once your gear outclasses it.
- A herb source: it drops 11 kinds of grimy herb, useful for Herblore without farming runs.
- Drops gold charm, green charm, blue charm and crimson charms for Summoning pouches.
- 13 of its drops come noted, so they don't fill your inventory.
- It can also roll the shared rare drop table (gems, key halves and bulk supplies); luck items improve those odds.
