Ironman notes

  • Weak to water spells: 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 13 kinds of seed, which keeps farm patches stocked.
  • Drops gold charm, green charm, crimson charm and blue charms for Summoning pouches.
  • 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.
