I'm slowly closing on the elusive 60 atk needed for a dragon weapon and I was wondering. Just truly how difficult is the Monkey Madness quest?

 

 

 

 

 

You have to defeat a level 195 Jungle Demon! At my current level I wouldn't even consider such a thing. What skills/equipment is needed to defeat the demon?

Should be in Help & Advice. But, really, a level 16 has complet5ed this quest. It just depends how well prepared you are.

I tried it twice, at around level 114. I tele'd from the island in panic both times because of all of the damage I was taking and haven't tried it since.

I did it at 79 combat, maged him with 60 mage.

I did it on two separate accounts on one i was a level 48. Let the gnomes kill the boss and then you run out and kill the boss with some ranged attacks.

See thats what bugs me. I've heard such varied answers on this. You need the quest to wield the Dragon scimitar but if a 114 has trouble with it. Then it must be a lot harder at lower levels.

Not hard at all. Wear some dragonhide/leather so you dont die.

That level 114 obviously didn't read the guide. It's best to range the demon with pray from mage on, the gnomes will attack him, you'll attack him with range, and he'll attack you with mage (but your pray from mage will protect you). It's not hard, just long.

The quest is pretty hard, and the puzzle is very annoying.

 

 

 

As for combat, the boss is near impossible to melee strait up. However, you can just sit in a corner out of reach of his attacks and watch the gnomes take down his health, then attack him any way to kill him. Range/Mage is safer, but you can easily do melee if you wait long enough. I did it at 70 Attack, 80 Strength, and 70 Defence, (90 combat) and easily killed him in about 5 hits after letting the gnomes attack. I'd highly recommend at least 10 monkfish, but a full inventory never hurts in case something goes wrong.

 

 

 

If you failed at 114, then :x you fail at questing and combat and Runescape.

Well i'm 56 Magic currently but only 24 prayer.

 

 

 

What would be a decent magic level to take it on?

You need at LEAST 43 prayer to have any chance of getting through this quest at your level... :thumbsup:

 

Good luck, and the boss is easy, just mage him beside the middle pit thing.

i had trouble in mid 70's combat but this was right when the quest came out and i think i used metal armor :oops:. i died 3 times.

I did at lv 66 ragining with lv 55 ranged

If you have the quest requirements, the only other real requirement is 43 prayer.

 

 

 

Honestly, its pretty easy, just long and tedious.

 

 

 

Just range the demon with protect from mage on, it can't hurt you, but you can hurt it =D.

Its easy, just lengthy and irritating. just range the demon in the end...

It's very easy. You just need prayer and range.

The annoying bits are the;

 

puzzle - takes forever if you've not done a lot of clue ones.

 

Getting out of the jail - its a nightmare if your inpatient like me.

 

Not getting caught before you get the monkey gree.

 

 

 

The tunnel, final fight and pretty much everything towards then end is easy.
