[Raven6666]

Note: A bit of info is missing due to time constraints, I apologise for this. Pictures will be added in the next few edits.

 

 

 

Minimum requirements:

 

 

 

Quests:

 

 

 

Witch's House

 

Levels:

 

Level 45 Farming

 

Level 52 Herblore

 

Level 58 Thieving

 

Level 59 Agility

 

Level 71 Woodcutting

 

 

 

Requirements: Woodcutting ax, 2 Tarromin/Water mixtures, Seed Dibbler, Watering can.

 

 

 

Suggested: Duelling Rings (to get to Castle Wars and the hot-air balloon), or a Gaming Necklace (an easy way to get close to Taverly)

 

 

 

Strongly suggested: Good food, Armour, Weapons, Super set, 1 click teleports.

 

 

 

First, start off at Taverly Village near the Gaius' Sword Shop, talk to Sylas. He will offer you beans and you will have to collect two items for him. First off, he will need a Grimgnash Griffin feather and a Dwarven helmet. It does not matter what order in which you collect them.

 

 

 

Gaining Grimgnash's Feather.

 

Items Required: None

 

Items Suggested: Plenty of good healing food, does not to be a single-bite

 

 

 

Note, in this part, the griffin is able to hit up to 20, with a possible higher(being damaged for a 23 may be possible)

 

 

 

Go up the east side of the mountain (the alternate path,aka the grassier path) until you see a griffin on a pedestal, talk to it. To lure it to sleep you must by telling it a bedtime story. For the story, talk about the most gruesome choices. The ones that seem to work are listed below:

• 
   
  [*:1yv48558]There once was a graveyard filled with undead
   
  [*:1yv48558]There lived a skeleton named Skullrot
   
  [*:1yv48558]Skullrot was insane!
   
  [*:1yv48558]Skullrot grabbed the gnome's hair
   
  [*:1yv48558]Started to strangle the poor gnome
   
  [*:1yv48558]He saw a big axe leaning on the wall.

 

Grimgnash will fall asleep and you will be free to take a feather from the pile near his feet.

 

 

 

Retrieving Rupert's helmet:

 

Items Required: None

 

If you did the Griffin first, go back to Taverly and go past the Crystal Chest building through the members gate. Walk up path to the Mind Altar and you will find a tower with an NPC named Miazrqa at the front door. Talk to her and you will realised you cannot enter via conventional means. Go to the east side of the enclosed yard and climb over the crumbling wall. You will have access to a drain pipe. "Talk" up it and you will find the person up there is Rupert the Beard, the NPC you will need to get the helm from. After a chat, you will find out that he is a King and why he is in that situation. Your character will suggest to help him, though because there is a lack of ideas your current conversation will end. Click back to talk to Rupert and suggest ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¢â¬ÅI could try and climb up,ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬ÃâÃ

[jimmy6691]

[chenw]

For your use Raven:

 

 

 

[hide=The stats of the helm is here][/hide]

 

 

 

Additional Info on the helm:

 

 

 

- The helm is tradeable

 

- The helm is also replaceable, however you need to drop all you have on the floor while talking to Rupert (much like Neitiznot Helm) and costs 60k per helm to replace

 

- Apart from the helm stats, there are no other known effects on the helmet.

[nice_guy221]

whats the helm called?

[chenw]

whats the helm called?

 

 

 

Dwarven Helmet

[Rubinio]

Ranging highly recommended.

 

 

 

A friend of mine (combat 112) sara brewed up to defence 106, and got destroyed by it in her own words.

 

 

 

I'm lvl 84, defence 51, and ranged it (cbow 8/10; ranging lvl 90) and used a total of 8 sharks. The trick is to keep away of it, so sometimes instead of running closer you just move around the edges. IF you have a 'For Glory!'-moment, run as soon as possible back to the edges.

 

 

 

He can drain prayer with at least 20 points per hit - screaming something like I hate those Gods or something - so prayer is of little use.

[dannybithell]

erm how would ancients go any ideas i am considering ice blitzing it...

[benbh16]

looks like this is the new helm people will wear with their full granite :D

[mega_vegeta6]

 

:oops:

[dannybithell]

:D Im done to! i anciented it and it took me 11 ice blitz he never even hit me so ancients seems a good way to go about it

[picasso]

 

all done=)

 

 

 

 

safe spot i was using

[hephaistos50]

That was fun :XD:

 

It took me two tries, first time I tried it unpotted with 8 monks in my inventory,

 

let's say I got completely owned :XD:

 

Potted up the second try, killed it without eating :D

 

So potting definitely works :P.

 

Great guide btw.

[Bludragon124]

Teehee. People seem to be ancienting it quite well. Seeing as I'm already on ancients, I may as well give this a try.

[Kenshinjapan]

People are over-exagerrating the strength of the monster. I just kept protect from melee on the entire time. Wore whip with a crystal shield and he only he me (a max of a 7) when he turned my prayer off.

[crazy_mimic]

Where can I find more "Shruken Ogleroots" If I dropped mine? :\

[anish00b]

REMEMBER: don't forget to wear leather gloves throughout the quest(can be bought from varrok)

 

 

 

it will be needed when getting piano notes

[leebrave]

I doubt this helm will be a big hit, good reward though

[deckstar]

finished! didnt use one peice of food 8-)

[aoe325]

The Griffin can hit up to 17, you might want to add it so nobody dies thinking he's safe. It could be more

[Esper_Jones]

Griffin hit me 18. Wasn't a hard boss, but some others might have trouble.

[Raven6666]

I just added more info as well as the usual clear-up and the Items req/suggested.
