Just look at that big, bad nope.


The most significant of the drops is the Treasonous ring, which is similar to the Warrior ring, except it adds +4 stab attack & defence instead of slash. Just like the Dagannoth rings, it can be imbued with an imbue scroll to double its bonuses!

Other than that, the boss drops some decent loot (including cannonballs and onyx bolt tips) and of course there's always the chance of obtaining one of its offspring as a pet.

Oh, and you'll find it here (wilderness level 28):

HYPEE!

Very nice.

My only concern is the ring. The best weapons in the game are slash.

It will bring players too the wilderness though, making it a more active place.

If there's nobody else who damages it, Ironman Mode players can kill it and get loot, but it will definitely be crowded for the first couple of weeks after the release, so I guess not.

I will however make work of instanced versions of all wilderness bosses after the break

Very nice.

The ring won't be the only valuable it drops - the overall loot should be worth it either way. And don't forget about the DDS and chaotic rapier.

Short term, yeh. But that's only because it's new content. That doesn't last.

Aight, as long as you're aware.

DDS and rapier aren't best in slot. People rarely use them.

Can't wait to kill some pvmers.

Naissss. Don't forget to add the boss to slayer task (and that you can block it)
