Ironman notes

  • Counts as a Slayer task from Raptor and Laniakea (task: phantoms and undead). Killing it on task earns Slayer XP and points.
  • Weak to air spells: bring that style for faster kills.
  • Aggressive: it attacks on sight, which is handy for AFK kills once your gear outclasses it.
  • Drops gold charm, green charm, blue charm and crimson charms for Summoning pouches.
