Ironman notes
- Counts as a Slayer task from Jacquelyn, Raptor and Vannaka (task: zombies). Killing it on task earns Slayer XP and points.
- Weak to earth spells: bring that style for faster kills.
- 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.
