Ironman notes

  • Counts as a Slayer task from Raptor, Chaeldar, Sumona, Duradel, Kuradal, Morvran and Laniakea (task: dagannoth). Killing it on task earns Slayer XP and points.
  • Weak to fire spells: bring that style for faster kills.
  • Aggressive: it attacks on sight, which is handy for AFK kills once your gear outclasses it.
  • Always drops Dagannoth 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.
