Ironman notes
- You need 22 Slayer to damage it, so plan the Slayer levels before the trip.
- Counts as a Slayer task from Mazchna and Sumona (task: desert lizards). Killing it on task earns Slayer XP and points.
- 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 7 kinds of seed, which keeps farm patches stocked.
- Always drops Big 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.
