The Chaos Tunnels are a dangerous place, filled with aggressive and powerful creatures with a taste for the flesh of adventurers. Please only take items with you that you are willing to lose. This is especially true because the Tunnels are a multicombat area, so you can be attacked by many foes at once.

Be aware that it is easy to get lost among the caves and portals, so you should remember to bring an item or runes to teleport out with.

 

Beneath the southern areas of the Wilderness is a warren of caves, linked by mysterious portals. Delved from the rock by the power of chaotic magic, a strange enchantment holds sway over its tunnels and passages, drawing evil to it like a moth to a flame. For this reason, perhaps, the range of creatures within the Chaos Tunnels is far greater than you might expect.

Whatever its origin, it is certain that the caves are tainted by the dark hands of Zamorakian magic…

 

The Chaos Tunnels can be accessed through a number of rifts in the Wilderness. They are relatively simple – all the better for the monsters of the Wilderness to find their way into the caves below.

If you have reached a certain stage in What Lies Below, the chances are that you have discovered the entrance to a Chaos Tunnel near Varrock. Those especially inquisitive adventurers may even be shocked to glimpse a familiar rogue – follow him at your peril, though: he is old, evil and sure to have a few vicious tricks up his voluminous sleeves.

 

As you can see from the map to the right, the Chaos Tunnels consist of dozens of small caves, all apparently separate from one another. Within each cave are portals of glowing light, which lead to other portals throughout the dungeon. These portals are stained with dark magic, though, and may not always work reliably – you may find yourself unable to use some portals, and occasionally they may lead you to an unexpected chamber.

The Chaos Tunnels are multicombat areas filled with aggressive monsters, so you will find that it is an excellent location for training your Summoning skill alongside your combat skills. In addition, there is large population of Slayer monsters, so make sure you bring the appropriate supplies!

There are no personalities of note within the Chaos Tunnels.

There are no quests to start in the Chaos Tunnels.

 

Bork sure is one big ork

Being followers of Zamorak, chaos is naturally something that members of the Dagon’Hai order appreciate, not least their leader, Surok. Players who have tracked Surok through the Chaos Tunnels will have to face one of his minions, in the form of a big ork called, er, Bork (orks aren’t known for their creativity).

Bork (level 267) hits hard with his melee attacks – very hard – but praying against that won’t help you out too much, as there will also be a Dagon’Hai monk in there with him firing nasty spells at you. Bork also often calls his ork legions to aid him in combat. These legions may be at the other end of the height scale from Bork, but they hit fast and their attacks can also soon overwhelm those who go unprepared. If you manage to defeat Bork, the cavern will begin to collapse, so make sure to pick up his drops and get out of there as quick as you can. Defeating him also earns you Slayer experience (5,000 for the first time you beat him; 250 for each subsequent victory). Wearing the ring of wealth when killing Bork will improve the drops you receive.

Bork resides in the chamber to the far north-west of the Chaos Tunnels. He can be fought once per day after you complete the What Lies Below quest and the Hunt for Surok miniquest.

As some creatures in the dungeon have a poisonous bite, it’s a good idea to bring an anti-poison potion with you.

 

At the unlikely confluence of Dorgesh-Kaan and the Kalphite Hive lies the Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon, a murky cavern that recalls the Lumbridge Swamp Dungeon in many ways: cave bugs scamper amongst giant frogs, cave slimes lurk in corners and swampy pools bubble. Subtle, but potent differences mar this comparison: the cave bugs have grown to warrior-worrying proportions and the molanisk, a strange cross between a mole and a basilisk, has taken up residence.

 

Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon can be accessed by two separate entrances. The first, and more widely trodden path, is through Dorgesh-Kaan, down from the Agility Course. At the southernmost point of the city, an adventurer should find the entrance up some rock stairs.

Another, far more treacherous path, could be through the Kalphite Hive. Previously sealed off by the Dorgeshuun, the Kalphite Hive entrance has been opened so that more curious humans can access their city. This means that those within the earlier reaches of the Hive can enter the Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon on their way to the Dorgeshuun city.

 

The dungeon, aside from providing a valuable means to the Kalphite Hive for those in Misthalin, has a few notable features. Most importantly, the area is rife with Slayer targets, including some rarer, high-level combatants.

There are two Fishing spots, where frog spawn and slimy eels can be caught.

There is a fairy ring in the centre of the Dungeon.

An Agility Course ranges overhead for those who like to mix swinging over crevasses with their slaying.

The cave is a valuable source of swamp weed, with several creatures dropping clumps of it.

There are no personalities of note in this Dungeon.

No quests can be started in the Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon.

 

Cave Bug (Level 6) Cave bugs are strange creatures confined to the darkness of the caves. They are very simple opponents, and anyone bold enough to enter the dungeon should have little difficulty killing them.	ÂÂ	Cave Crawler (Level 23) Cave crawlers are long, lizard-like creatures with six legs and a series of green stripes down their backs. Their bite is poisonous, but they are less resilient in the face of crushing or Magic attacks.
Cave bugs can be found throughout the dungeon; you must have a Slayer level of 7 to kill them.	ÂÂ	You must have a Slayer level of 10 to kill cave crawlers.

Cave Slime (Level 23) Cave slimes are shapeless creatures that live by digesting anything around them, including adventurers that are overcome by the dangers of the dungeon. Their attacks, like the cave crawler, are poisonous.	ÂÂ	Big Frog (Level 24) Big frogs are considerably larger than you’d ever expect a frog to grow to, and they’re certainly not for new adventurers. Thankfully, they never stray far from water.
You must have a Slayer level of 17 to kill cave slime.	ÂÂ	ÂÂ

Molanisk (Level 51) The molanisk is a sedate and passive creature, gripping to the walls and flicking out its tongue whenever prey crawls past. It takes one ring, however, from a Slayer bell for the molanisk’s bile to rise, charging at you with its horn!	ÂÂ	Cave Bug (Level 96) Grown to monstrous proportions, these beasts are near unrecognisable from their smaller brethren, the lesser cave bugs. It almost seems as if the nearby kalphites have had an influence on these enlarged creatures…
You must have a Slayer level of 39 and a Slayer bell to kill a molanisk. The molanisk often drops mole claws.	ÂÂ	The larger cave bugs can be found throughout the dungeon; you must have a Slayer level of 7 to kill them. They can drop a water battlestaff.

Giant Frog (Level 99) Giant frogs have fed on the smaller creatures around them for years to grow into monstrous beasts capable of slaying all but the toughest of adventurers.

The giant frogs are found in the south-east areas of the dungeon, while some others have wandered farther afield.

Sinister Chest

In the Yanille Agility Dungeon resides Salarin the Twisted. He can only be defeated by elemental strike spells but, if you are successful, there is a chance that he may drop a sinister key, which is used to open the sinister chest in the skeleton room.

Upon opening the chest you will get poisoned, so it is a good idea to bring along an anti-poison of some type.

The chest contains a fixed set of nine cleaned herbs, which are:

2 x harralander
3 x ranarr
1 x irit
1 x avantoe
1 x kwuarm
1 x torstol

Herb Gloves

There are a few sets of gloves available from Fist of Guthix that anyone interested in Herblore should look to purchase. Irit, avantoe, kwuarm and cadantine gloves increase the chance that you will receive those herbs as drops instead of other herbs. Any time that you would receive a herb drop, there is a 50% chance that it will automatically be the same herb as your gloves. This has no effect on creatures like fever spiders, who only drop one type of herb. These gloves will crumble to dust after 100 drops of the same herb as your gloves.

You need a Herblore level of 50 to wear irit gloves, 60 to wear avantoe gloves, 70 for kwuarm gloves, and 80 for cadantine gloves.

Greenman’s Ale

It is worth noting that ‘Greenman’s Ale’ temporarily increases your Herblore level by one. This can be purchased from the Dragon Inn (located in Yanille) brewed (please refer to the Cooking Guide) and bought from Jossik the Lighthouse keeper’s store after completing Horror from the Deep.

Summoning Familiars

Using the Summoning skill, you’ll find that there are a few familiars that might be useful for training your Herblore. Of particular note is the macaw, whose special move finds plenty of herbs.

Guthix Rest Tea

Once you have reached a certain point in One Small Favour, you will learn to make Guthix Rest tea. Of course, this tea is still useful after you have completed the quest. To make the tea, you will need some hot water (use a bowl of water with a fire or a range), which you should then put into a cup. To this cup of piping hot water, add two guam, one marrentill and one harralander. These herbs can be added in any order, though using incorrect quantities will ruin the tea. Successfully making Guthix Rest will earn you a total of 56 Herblore experience.

Each cup of Guthix Rest has three doses, each of which will do all of the following (though they will not stack):
Reduce the effect of poisons
Restore some run energy
Boost life points by 50, even beyond your normal maximum

Sanfew Serum

To learn to make Sanfew Serum, you must have completed Zogre Flesh Eaters, and be interested in gathering some nail beast nails from Temple Trekking / Burgh de Rott Ramble. If you then speak to Sanfew, he will explain how to make this potion.

+ + + =

Sanfew Serum combines the effects of super restore, cure poison and cure disease potions all in one, as well as proving to be an effective weapon against the nail beasts themselves. Note that the effects are not as potent as the individual potions themselves.

Vials of Stench

Upon finishing the Thieves’ Guild caper called A Guild of Our Own, you will be able to create a vial of stench by mixing a bowl of chopped onion into an unfinished irit potion. This vial of stench can be taken to Chief Thief Robin in the Thieves’ Guild who will ‘activate’ it for you. Carrying this potion while stealing from stalls will enable you to immediately trade back your stolen goods to the very stallholder you lifted from, their watering eyes stopping them from identifying you as the thief.

Locators

To get to your Herblore secondary ingredients areas quicker, you might want to consider purchasing a locator. These can be bought using reward credits in Mobilising Armies. Each officer of the officer tower can offer you a different level of locator.

By using the locator, you can choose to be teleported to a Mining, Woodcutting, Fishing or Herblore secondary ingredient area. Once you have made your choice, the locator will make some mysterious calculations and then teleport you randomly to a suitable spot. Try not to be wasteful: the locators have a limited number of charges and can only be refreshed by buying another or playing a game of Mobilising Armies.

Training Hints and Tips

Zahur, who is located in Nardah, will clean your herbs for 200 gold pieces per herb. She will also decant potions into 2- or 3-dose vials for the low price of 50gp. Bob Barter at the Grand Exchange also has a similar service, but can decant potions into 4-dose vials as well.

Although a Members’ skill, Strength potions are available in the free-to-play worlds by visiting the Varrock Apothecary and trading him one limpwurt root, a red spider’s egg and 5gp. It is the only stat-boosting potion that can be traded in free-to-play.

Remember that water-filled vials can be bought from stores. Ardougne general store is one of many places you can buy these from.

Train your Herblore skill alongside Agility by visiting the Brimhaven Agility Arena, where you can trade your tickets for herbs. You could even adventure into the Yanille Agility Dungeon and be lucky enough to obtain the sinister key, from fighting Salarin the Twisted.

Herbicide

Herbicide can erode any herb that drops from a monster, giving you twice the amount of XP you would have received for cleaning that herb. To choose which herbs are eroded in this manner, ‘Inspect’ the herbicide and make your choices on the interface. Herbicide can be bought from the rewards trader of Daemonheim, and requires level 21 Herblore and 21 Dungeoneering.
Scroll of Cleansing

If you have a Herblore level of 49 and a Dungeoneering level of 55, you may be able to purchase a scroll of cleansing from the Rewards Trader of Daemonheim. Once used, the scroll will disappear, giving you the following permanent effects:

You receive a 1 in 8 chance that you make a potion twice as fast as usual
You receive a 1 in 10 chance that you save a secondary ingredient when making any potion

Herblore Training in Dungeoneering

It is possible to train all of your skills while dungeoneering, and Herblore is no exception. Herbs can be gained from monster drops or by farming, and, once clean, they are ingredients for useful potions. You can also gain Herblore experience by completing herblore skill doors.

Quests Providing Herblore Experience

For quests that specifically give Herblore experience as a reward, please refer to the Herblore Rewards page.

Mini Quest

Hide and seek with trolls! If you have completed Eadgar’s Ruse Quest you can now collect the herb goutweed from the troll storeroom and exchange it with Sanfew in Taverley for other herbs.

Once you have completed the quest, you will need to return to the Troll Stronghold basement storeroom and hide from the guards between the crates and boxes; then take your chance to dash across the room and grab goutweed from the crate without being caught.

You will then need to take your collected goutweed to Sanfew, who will exchange them for an equal number of grimy herbs.

The Herblore Habitat is only available to RuneScape members. Please subscribe to get this feature.

The habitat may be ‘Safe’, with nothing that can hurt you unless you are poisoned, but the way to the habitat can be treacherous. Beware of spiders and jogres on the way.

Introduction

Heh heh heh, it’s Papa Mambo! In a far corner of Karamja, Papa Mambo has used his voodoo magic to grow an area where Farming, Hunter and Herblore can all be trained within a small distance from each other. Grow crops to attract jadinko plant creatures, hunt the creatures to get secondary ingredients, and use the secondary ingredients to make juju potions that helps with your Farming, Hunter and much more.

Location

Location of the Herblore Habitat

The Herblore Habitat can be found at the south-eastern point of Karamja, south-east of the Jade Vine and east of the Kharazi Jungle. It can be easily found on the world map thanks to its wealth of farming patches.

The advised method of getting to the habitat is by visiting Bettamax, in the north of Taverley, to buy some juju teleport spiritbags. These spiritbags teleport you directly to Papa Mambo and their price starts at 2,000 coins, but rises as you purchase more of them.

A popular route among budding voodoo-cultists is to travel to Captain Klemfoodle on the east side of Karamja via gnome glider (requires completion of the The Grand Tree quest), and then make their way south of the river by using the stepping stone agility crossing (level 70 Agility). A longer route takes you from Brimhaven docks, past the west side of Tai Bwo Wannai Village all the way south to Shilo Village, where you can head east to the coast.

Requirements

To be able to train the three skills at the core of the Herblore Habitat, you will need a Farming level of at least 54, a Hunter level of 70 and a Herblore level of 54. Since Farming is the skill with which you can train all other skills, you MUST have a Farming level of 54 to get any benefit from the Herblore Habitat.

If you wish to construct your own environmental features in the habitat – rather than paying Papa Mambo to make them – you will need at least level 56 Construction. Papa Mambo will ask for at least 56,000 coins to build a feature.

Recommended Items

It is recommended that you buy a juju teleport spiritbag to get to the Herblore Habitat. It is also recommended that you bring teleporting materials for when you have finished training at the habitat, as the area is very remote.

The vast majority of items needed at the Herblore Habitat can be bought from Papa Mambo or garnered from the plants and jadinkos in the area. It is worth bringing coins to buy any materials you may need from Papa Mambo, or to pay Mister Mambo for the construction of environmental features. You do not need a saw or hammer to construct any features in the Herblore Habitat.

It might also be worth bringing compost or super compost with you. While it is possible to make compost using the Herblore Habitat compost bins, you may not make enough for your liking.

To find out information about any of the items from the Herblore Habitat, simply use them on Astlayrix, and he will give you a short description of each.

Farming at the Habitat

Picking from a vine bush It is recommended that you talk to Papa Mambo and Astlayrix in the Herblore Habitat to get a more complete sense of what you can achieve in the Herblore Habitat.

Although three skills can be trained in the Herblore Habitat, Farming is the one that starts turning the circle of life; so, since Farming is the instigator of change in the Herblore Habitat, you MUST have the minimum Farming level of 54 to get any benefit from the area.

Farming in the Herblore Habitat is not as simple as turning up with your favourite seeds. The farming patches here – aside from the fruit tree patch – are scattered with juju, meaning that they all require seeds that are unique to the area. Your first seeds can be bought from Papa Mambo, to the north-east of the habitat, and he will offer a starter pack of seeds for free. These seeds grow into blossoms when planted in the vine flower patches of the Herblore Habitat. Everyone who comes to the area will begin by planting these seeds, gradually accruing seeds for the vine bush and vine herb patches.

You will plant, look after and harvest your seeds in an identical manner to other patches: rake the weeds from the patch, apply compost if you wish, plant the seeds, water the plants, cure them if they get diseased, and then harvest the results. Everything is done in virtually the same manner: the only real difference being that vine plants in the habitat can grow faster than their non-vine equivalents. You may purchase tools from Papa Mambo, and the leprechaun in the area will store your tools and juju potions for free.

Hunting at the habitat will give you a number of additional seeds that you can farm with at the habitat. Details of those plants can be found below.

Construction at the Habitat

It is recommended that you talk to Papa Mambo and Astlayrix in the Herblore Habitat to get a more complete sense of what you can achieve in the Herblore Habitat.

Construction cannot be trained in the Herblore Habitat – and it’s far from essential – but it does play a part in the attraction of jadinkos. You see, to attract a jadinko, you must be growing its favourite plants and its favourite environmental feature (and, for the rarer jadinkos, you must have poured a juju hunter potion onto blossoms in your vine flower patch), which is created by using your Construction skill.

You do not gain any Construction experience by building on the environmental hotspot, but you do not use up any materials, either. All you need is the right Construction level to build here. You do not need a saw or hammer to build on this hotspot.

Should your Construction level be too low to build the feature you desire, you can always ask Papa Mambo to build it for you. This is reasonably expensive, as can be noted in the table column below.

Hunter at the Habitat

Trapping jadinkos
It is recommended that you talk to Papa Mambo and Astlayrix in the Herblore Habitat to get a more complete sense of what you can achieve in the Herblore Habitat.

When you first enter the Herblore Habitat, there will be no creatures to hunt. This is because jadinkos – plant creatures that are grown from the vine itself – are too shy to raise their heads above the ground. Fortunately for hunters, they cannot resist the smell of certain plants, while other breeds of jadinko can’t help but be attracted to certain kinds of environment. Some exclusive jadinkos will even require you to have poured a juju hunter potion onto your vine flowers.

Each breed of jadinko has different plants and features that will attract it to the ecosystem. You will have to try different combinations of plants and features to find out what attracts what, but you don’t have to worry about remembering any successful combinations: Astlayrix will keep a record of what each jadinko desires as and when you find that out. The exceptions to this rule are the god jadinkos: these three creatures change their likes and dislikes every week, so you will have to look hard and work together to find out what brings them to the habitat. God jadinkos will only be attracted by those under the influence of juju hunter potions.

You will need marasamaw plant traps to catch the majority of jadinkos. These can be bought from Papa Mambo’s shop, and they are used in an identical manner to box traps: simply lay the trap in a jadinko-populated area, walk away and wait for a jadinko to spring it. You can increase the chances of catching a jadinko with a marasamaw plant trap by keeping a decent distance from it, smoking it using a torch (purchased from Papa Mambo), baiting it with a vine (obtained from jadinkos), drinking a scentless potion or wearing the witchdoctor clothing.

Some jadinkos are hunted via tracking. These jadinkos can be found on the west side of the habitat, and are caught by the same methods you are used to in other areas. Simply follow the jadinko’s tracks and use a noosing wand to catch the blighter.

Astlayrix will reveal what is required to attract common jadinkos if you talk to him at the habitat.

As mentioned in the Rewards section, you can gain rewards for catching all of the non-god jadinkos in a given week. You can also receive a separate reward for catching all of the god jadinkos in a given week.

If you would like to shoo a specific breed of jadinko away from the habitat, leaving you to hunt your choice of jadinko unhindered, then talk to Papa Mambo. He will offer to shoo away a jadinko breed in exchange for a number of striped vines. Each striped vine used in this manner will shoo a breed of jadinko away for fifteen minutes.

Herblore at the Habitat

Concocting juju potions
It is recommended that you talk to Papa Mambo and Astlayrix in the Herblore Habitat to get a more complete sense of what you can achieve in the Herblore Habitat.

The Herblore Habitat is charged with Papa Mambo’s juju magic, and its products are ideal for making powerful potions. The potions you make using ingredients from the habitat are so powerful, in fact, that they require special juju potion vials, so make sure you buy some from Papa Mambo rather than bring your own vials. These vials can be filled with water at Mambo’s cauldron.

Primary ingredients for the juju potions are grown in your vine herb patch. See the Farming section abve to find out how to grow your vine herbs, and scan the Hunter tables to find out which jadinkos drop vine herb seeds.

Cleaning herbs:

Herb Level Required To Clean Experience Gained From Cleaning

Erzille 54 10

Ugune 56 11.5

Argway 57 11.6

Shengo 58 11.7

Samaden 59 11.7

Secondary ingredients are garnered by hunting the jadinkos in the area. These jadinkos are attracted by the plants and environmental features of your habitat, and then trapped using the marasamaw plant traps or by tracking. Read the Hunter section of this article to find out which secondary ingredient is dropped by which jadinko.

Rewards

Attract a full complement of non-god jadinkos in a given week and you will gain Papa Mambo’s attention. For being so in touch with the twisted nature of the Jade Vine offshoot, he will give you a boost to your choice of Hunter, Herblore or Farming XP, relative to your levels in those skills. This XP boost can only be gained once a week.

In addition to the skill boost, he will also provide you with witchdoctor legs or a witchdoctor body. These items act as camouflage while in the Herblore Habitat area. They can also be sold to Papa Mambo for 5,400 gold each.

Catch all of the god jadinkos in one week and you will receive another XP boost in your choice of Farming, Hunter or Herblore. Again, this can only be gained once a week. Papa Mambo will also give you the opportunity to own a witchdoctor mask. This mask has unlimited teleports to the Herblore Habitat and acts as camouflage in the Herblore Habitat.

Introduction

Find out what potions you are able to make from the table below. Please remember that all stat boost potions give a temporary effect and your stats will reset over time.

Note: You must have completed the Druidic Ritual quest.
Important: The boosts that some potions can give are based upon your current levels. For example, if you have Attack level 1 and drink an Attack potion, your level will temporarily increase by 3. If your Attack level is 99, this boost will be by 12 levels.
Also: Each dose will add the same boost to the skills, and are not cumulative. For example, if you drink two doses of an Attack potion, you will not double the amount of Attack levels you temporarily gain.

~ These potions are untradable. They cannot be taken into the Wilderness or used in dangerous PvP activities, but they can be used in player vs monster combat and safe activities. If you enter the Wilderness while under an extreme potion’s effects, these effects will be reduced to their super potion equivalent.
^ These potions can only be made by using ingredients from the Herblore Habitat. They also use vials that can only be bought from Papa Mambo in the same area.

Overload

Those at the top of their Herblore game will be able to create the overload potion. Overload not only requires torstol, but five different potions:
Extreme attack
Extreme strength
Extreme defence
Extreme magic
Extreme ranging

Potion

Herblore Level Needed

Primary Ingredient Needed

Secondary Ingredient Needed

Herblore Experience Gained

Product Effect Per Dose

Overload 96
Five different potions (see text above)
Torstol 1000 See below

Overload is so strong that it racks the body with spasms and burns the digestive tract, so be prepared for 500 damage in chunks of 100 when you drink it! You will regain these 500 life points when the stat effects wear off.

Overload gives you the stat effects and magic boosts of ALL five of its potion ingredients – extreme attack, extreme strength, extreme defence, extreme magic and extreme ranging – for a period of five minutes. Unlike the other extreme potions, which gradually return your stats to their normal level, overload will keep these bonuses at their boosted level for five minutes and will then reset them back to their original state (healing the 500 life points at the same time).

Overload is untradable. It cannot be taken into the Wilderness or used in dangerous PvP activities, but it can be used in player vs monster combat and safe activities. If you enter the Wilderness while under overload’s effects, these effects will be reduced to their super potion equivalents.

Getting Started

To make a bow, you must use your knife on a set of logs. When the Fletching menu appears, you can choose to make either a shortbow or longbow. Depending on your choice, you will make an unstrung bow, which will replace the set of logs that were used during the Fletching process.

Note: If you want to make several of the same object, simply right-click and select the number you wish to produce from the list shown.

Stringing the Bow

Now it is time to string your bow. If you have achieved a Crafting level of ten, then you will be able to create your own bowstrings.

For information on how to make bowstrings, please see the Crafting section of the manual.

If you do not have enough experience to craft your own bowstrings, you may be lucky enough to find some in a general store, otherwise you will need to find someone skilled enough to make them for you.

Once you have a bowstring, use it on your unstrung bow to complete the bow.

Below is a table of each bow type with the Fletching level required to make them:

Bow Required Level Experience Gained
(Unstrung) Experience Gained
(For Stringing) Experience Gained
(Completed)

Shortbow 5 5 5 10

Maple shortbow 50 50 50 100

Maple longbow 55 58 58 116

Yew shortbow 65 67.5 67.5 135

Yew longbow 70 75 75 150

Magic shortbow 80 83 83 166

Magic longbow 85 91.5 91.5 183

Composite Ogre Bow

With wolf bones in your inventory, cut down an achey tree and use your knife to fletch the logs into an unstrung bow. The wolf bones will be used in the Fletching process. Then use a bowstring with the unstrung bow to make a composite ogre bow.

The composite ogre bow is the only bow that can fire brutal arrows. You can not make these bows until you learn how to during the Zogre Flesh Eaters quest .

Getting Started

The bolts that rangers use with their crossbows are predominantly made from metals; hence, to make bolts you will need a certain Smithing level depending upon what sort of bolt you wish to make. Fletching is useful when making bolts as it is not possible to make them work without first adding the flights (feathers). Equally, bolts may have a variety of tips attached, some of which allow the bolts to then be enchanted.

For full information about crossbows and bolts, click here to see Ranged – Crossbows and Bolts.

Requirements

Below is a table showing the Fletching level required and the experience gained by attaching flights to your bolts. Kebbit-tipped and long kebbit-tipped hunting bolts do not require flights to be attached, and are made simply by using a chisel on the appropriate kebbit spike.

Bolt Type Required
Fletching Level Experience Gained
(Per Bolt)

Bronze 9 0.5

Blurite* 24 1

Kebbit-tipped hunting bolt 32 0.83

Iron 39 1.5

Long kebbit-tipped hunting bolt 42 1.33

Silver~ 43 2.5

Steel 46 3.5

Mithril 54 5

Adamant 61 7

Rune 69 10

* Blurite bolts are not available until you have completed The Knight’s Sword quest.
~ Silver bolts are crafted rather than smithed.

Fletching Bolt Tips

Bolts may also be tipped with gems, pearls, barbs and grapples; this is all dependent on the type of bolt you have, of course. To fletch tips, use a chisel on the gem or pearl (barbed tips are available from the Ranging Guild; mithril grapple tips are smithed), and a number of tips will be made.

You can make most types of tip simply by using a chisel on the correct gem, and this will normally allow you to choose how many gems to convert into tips. In the case of dragonstone and onyx, though, your character’s natural reaction is going to be panic, so you will be presented with an option to change your mind.

Thankfully for those rangers who have saved up the vast quantity of tokkul needed to purchase an onyx from the TzHaar city, the same store there also sells onyx tips for a more reasonable price.

Once you have tips, you can use them on bolts of the correct type to attach them. The primary use of gem-tipped and pearl-tipped bolts is to then enchant them, granting them specific powers, which you can read about here.

Note that when you put a tip on a crossbow bolt you may no longer poison it.

Training Hints and Tips

To make Fletching bows slightly easier, move your knife to the last space of your inventory, and click only on the knife and the log next to it; use this method when stringing bows as well.

When Fletching arrow shafts, keep a knife in your inventory while cutting logs. Shafts are stackable items and you won’t waste time banking your logs.

Use your Magic skill alongside your Fletching and cast high alchemy on high level bows.

Summoning Familiars

Using the Summoning skill, you’ll find that there are a few familiars that might be useful for training your Fletching. Of particular note is the beaver, who counts as a knife (which you don’t keep in your inventory).

Fletching Training in Dungeoneering

It is possible to train all of your skills while dungeoneering, and Fletching is no exception. Traps and staves can be fletched, alongside the more conventional bows and arrows. You can also gain Fletching experience by completing fletching skill doors.

Inside the Sepulchre of Death Tremble, Mortal, for I am the lord of the Sepulchre of Death. I have made this place to be void of life, and only the most powerful or determined mortals should come here. Be ready to answer my questions and I will allow you to move closer to my heart, if you answer them correctly.

It is dark and cold down here at the base of the Stronghold of Security and my creatures are hungry for a little warmth. So come into my embrace, Mortal, and see what treasures await you.

 

Map of the Sepulchre of Death

 

 

This final level of the Stronghold of Security is not for the weak and certainly not for those that fear me. Those that have lost their way or failed to escape now serve to block your way.

The way through the Sepulchre of Death is not simple, nor is there any way through that will allow you to avoid facing my guardians. There are bone ropes, however, which are set in place for the fearful to use and return to the start of my Sepulchre.

Those whose desire to live is great enough will arrive at my central chamber where I preserve the faintest seed of life. This will grant you the final prize of the Stronghold of Security, proof that you have bested me and my brothers: no small feat, I assure you, Mortal.

 

Skeleton (Level 60/68/85) Skeletons are the typical servant of Death, such that superstitious mortals describe Death in that form. They are not the most horrifying of creatures, but skeletons serve as excellent guards and warriors.

ÂÂ

Ghost (Level 76/77) Those mortals who fail to arrive at my chamber to collect the Gift of Life, but whose will is strong nonetheless, I choose to keep as fragmentary remnants of themselves. Ghosts are wrathful beings, but magic can still cause them pain.

Ankou (Level 75/82/86) An Ankou’s touch is as cold as the void, and drains life with the merest graze of its fingertips. They are skinless creatures that are the most recently dead of my minions.

ÂÂ

Shade (Level 83) Shades are among the eldest of my victims, and have long since lost any recollection of their former lives. They are an admirable symbol of my victory over life.

These sewers contain a variety of monsters, up to level 42 Moss Giants. If you do not think you can take on these monsters, only bring armour/items you are prepared to lose.

 

Fighting Moss Giants in the Varrock Sewers

Beneath the busy city of Varrock resides the long, dark, damp and monster-infested sewers.

The deeper warriors venture into Varrock sewers, the greater the challenge becomes, with fights varying from rats to red spiders.

 

Varrock Sewers is located beneath the bustling city of Varrock.

Varrock is a key city in RuneScape, located in the north-eastern area of Misthalin.

When looking to access the Varrock Sewers, you’ll need to look for an open manhole cover!

 

Interesting areas of the Varrock Sewer

As you can see from the map above, the area is a labyrinth of corridors and rooms. The deeper you go into the sewers, the harder the monsters will become.

Members will find the monsters in here useful as some drop items such as herbs (zombies), and seeds for your Farming skill (moss giants).

At the very end of the sewers, in the northern-most room containing moss giants, there is a pipe. If you are on a members’ server, you can crawl through this pipe and gain access to Edgeville Dungeon, just near Vannaka.

Also in this final room, there is a spawn point for red spiders’ eggs, used as a secondary ingredient in Herblore.

 

There are no quest start points in Varrock Sewers.

 

Zombie (Level 24) Zombies are usually found in the dark, damp areas of the RuneScape world, so it is not surprising that a few wander the central damp area of the sewers. Separated by a river from one side, it is a good place to use Magic attacks such as ‘Crumble Undead’ from a safe distance.	ÂÂ	Deadly Red Spider (Level 34) Tougher than the giant spiders by far, deadly red spiders haven’t earned their name letting adventurers walk by: they will give you a tough fight if you are unprepared. As this is a multicombat area, be careful you don’t get outnumbered quickly!
Zombies are found in the central area, past the ghosts.	ÂÂ	Deadly Red Spiders can be found in the final area of Varrock Sewers.

Moss Giant (Level 42) Moss giants are more commonly seen on the surface of RuneScape, but a fair amount have found their way into the final section of Varrock Sewers, where they and their beards wait for adventurers to disturb them. They are quite strong, and will put up a good fight against unprepared warriors.
