GUIDE TO TRAINING ON GIANT SKELETONS

 

 

 

 

 

Introduction

 

 

 

These are some of the best experience in the game and not too well know, all though they are getting more and more popular. I have personally used them for some of my training here, I powered from 90-99 strength and 92-96(I will be getting 99 here) defence here. They are located in Damis' Lair north of Ardougne, you must have a ring of visibility on though to see the ladder leading down to Damis Lair.

 

You have to start Desert Treasure in order to obtain the ring from Rasolo, if you have lost your ring you can just talk to Rasolo to get a new one.

 

 

 

 

 

Suggested Stats

 

Hitpoints 80

 

Attack 75

 

Strength 70

 

Defence 80

 

 

 

The Monster

 

 

 

Now on to what you will be training on the Giant Skeletons. They are level 80 with 70 hp, 280 experience per kill. They are fairly easy to kill with a salve amulet(e),obtained from the Haunted Mine quest and enchanted with Tarns Diary from Tarns Diary mini Quest. I average about 70-85k Exp an hour here occasionally I can get 90k an hour but thats not too common.

Guthans Helm and Guthans Warspear for Healing

Getting to Damis Lair

 

 

 

Getting to Damis lair is fairly easy from north Ardougne bank just head slightly north-west and you will see a simi-transparent ladder which will be the entrance to Damis Lair. Below is a map leading to Damis Lair.

 

 

 

 

 

 

At Skeletons

 

 

 

At the skeletons there are two spots with two giant skeleton spawns. Below is a picture of the skeleton spawns.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The skeletons will auto attack you for a period of time but after a while they will just ignore you so just switch between the two spots to keep up the auto attack

 

 

 

 

 

This is my first guide ever so dont be to harsh =D

[Pirate_Felix]

good guide, do they drop small bones? then its maybe advisable to use b2p

 

8/10

[red32892]

no they drop big bones, along with some long bones and curved bones i can get like 4-5 long bones a trip and a curved bone

[Shivneil29]

Nice guide, 8/10.

 

 

 

But they're gonna get crowded now.

[haz280]

They wont get crowded, there's already been a guide or 2 on these.

 

 

 

Good guide, you should add something about familiars though. They can usually give a nice amount of exp. ;)

[Inuashakent]

Also, you might want to remove restore pots. You dont really need to bring them if you spec early enough. Or at least thats what I remember.

[Theoknight2]

to the posters above, these have almost always been crowded. just not as much as bandits/gorilla monkeys.

if you dont bring restore pots and are using dba special the super attack and super defence pots wont give as much of a boost

[red32892]

bump

[blacksurge]

Dt skeletons are never crowded :| i've known about the spot for like a year and never had to world hop

[SirHartlar]

Bandos armour, or even Torso is better because of attack bonuses. Bring a Bunyip so you don't need to heal, you can bank in the fishing guild where there is an obelisk.

[muggiwhplar]

Nice guide - I'd recommend verac's skirt and put guthan's skirt in inventory since veracs has better bonuses and lets your prayer last longer (always use 5 or 10% str prayer when training)

[Ih8Mining]

leme spell it out for you b.u.n.y.i.p., at least mention u dont even need guthans if u have a bunyip

[Pirate_Felix]

leme spell it out for you b.u.n.y.i.p., at least mention u dont even need guthans if u have a bunyip

 

let me spell it out for you: "let me spell it out for you, B-U-N-Y-I-P, at least mention you don't even need guthans if you have a Bunyip."

 

Failure.

 

Nice guide, try retaking your pictures and saving them as: .PNG
