Ironman notes
- Weak to air spells and water spells: bring that style for faster kills.
- A herb source: it drops 11 kinds of grimy herb, useful for Herblore without farming runs.
- Always drops Bones: Prayer XP as you go.
- It can also roll the shared rare drop table (gems, key halves and bulk supplies); luck items improve those odds.
