A few notes of Desert treasure

 

Blood diamond:

Pestle and mortar in toolbelt work for crushing the garlic.

 

Dessous is extreemly easy to kill, I used air waves wearing batwing robes. I didnt even think of eating food, he just took very very few lp off me - and he died so fast that I was not even near building enough adrenaline for treshold abilities.

 

Ice diamond

 

For this part, I brought a terrorbird filled with monkfish, and with that I was able to do the whole run in one go, without banking, 8 monks left when finished (I am currently 71 attack and strenght, 72 defence, 74 constitution, 77 magic) . I suggest you add to the guide that it is adviced to bring a bob carrying food.

 

Killing Kamil was almost as easy as killing Dessous, except that he kept me frozen a while. Almost all damage i took was from the environment, but yea hp loss and stat draining is massive - and the terrorbird scrolls does not let you run, run energy drainage is massive as well.

 

Shadow diamond

 

Yes, I can confirm that you indeed still can get poisoned after eoc when failing picking the lock on the chest! I took 25 damage from failing lock, and 285 damage from poison - but it wore off very very quick! I think poison hit me 5-6 times or so, then stopped. Oh, and at lvl 72 thieving, I had to go back and get more lockpicks, I broke 14 of them before I managed to open chest!!!

 

Killing Damis - jagex messed up here - the skeletons are not agressive, nor are the shadow dogs, as long as you remember to not use abilities with multi target effect, they ignore you! I think Damis is very very easy to kill in both forms, I managed to build up adrenaline to use treshold ability ONCE. And no, I didnt think of eating or potting, took basically no damage - without praying that is.

 

Smoke diamond

 

Same thing here - boss fight is a joke. I feel that the figths are way way way too easy and unbalanced atm. And yes, I sent a bug report to jagex that killing desert treasure bosses is way too easy.
