For mid levels (around base 70s): If you have the fight down pretty well and want xp, make sure to prioritize killing the minions. at base 70s I'm getting 87-88k xp an hour by prioritizing minions as you can 1 tick them with the bone mace, 80 xp per kill. He will spawn them multiple times throughout the fight and it really adds up. It will also save you food if you have low def and get chipped down by the minions if you let them linger. Prayer flicking really conserves prayer pots. I don't have chivalry yet so I dont even bother with the accuracy and strength prayers. I just prayer flick and use maybe 1 dose of prayer pot per 2 kills. Initiate/Prosthelyte helps a lot. with full inventory of sharks and 2 super combat pots I can get up to 20 kills per trip
For everyone thats ranging, when you go to kill the little rats and you're using the rat bow, once you see the xp drop SPAM click the other rats and you can kill all the rats in like 2 or 3 ticks
Thats for all of the bone weapons! The mace and staff also make you attack every 1 tick as long as you attack the little rats one after the other, and then your next attack on the boss can be with 1 tick as well! Happy rat hunting 😁
also i liked it when i was in my 70s because i think its a pretty good boss to train on it uses melee from close and range from far and has minion spawns but its pretty easy@@355scaper
This is the first real boss I’ve ever done, I’m mainly a skilled with around 1900 total lvl but doing this boss has me addicted. Only at like 20kc but man I want that pet and the fight keeps me engaged.
No way. It would be botted to all hell if it was F2P. The drop table is really good for early game and as easy as it is. Consistent gp, good supplies, and insanely good combat xp. That is not something a F2P boss could give imo.
I have a f2p HCIM and just no, I only want an ice giant boss equivalent . I voted no years ago on that golem mace being on par with rune weapons outside of golems. Takes away the prestige of smithing rune weapons.
I thought it was supposed to be for both. But they could somehow implement a different bone or organ to trade in for nonmembers for a much smaller amount, to help somewhat combat that, however it would still get botted, yes. To which it still wouldn't be great for bots making money. Even if you make it 10x less or 500xp/350xp and make the non member drop rate double or triple the 1/33 it still wouldn't help
Guys and girls, there is no need to worry about this boss at all, i afk this boss at work, with 85-90 ish melee stats (92 hp), im gone for about 1 min and the fight i still going(low hp at that point tho), the main dmg dealer at this boss is the falling rocksi which is 12-22 dmg ish, i wear d boots, dharoks body, veracs skirt, myth cape (for crush bonus), dragon defender, neitiznot helm, avas blessing, amulet of fury and bone mace( ironman btw) i have now done 260 kc(in solo) and this works for me, although afk means more ressource usage. The reason i mainly do melee is scurrius sometimes switches position meaning i follow and alot of the times avoid the falling ceiling while afking, and praying melee. For new players it might seem intimidating, there is no reason too, as the boss literally is made for intro to endgame pvm, and he is doing no damage compared to other bosses. Edit: The boss is made to learn prayer flicking, movement and such, its a great way to start off as is advertised by jagex, the more you learn the less ressources you use. Also you can eat from the same pile as scurrius eats from for full hp, with a 10 minute cooldown.
Phenomenal boss. It's no raids 4, but if you recruit a new friend, they'll learn basic boss raid mechanics without the risk of endgame PvM chewing then spitting out hard.
It's probably the staff, since this boss has a bit lower magic defense than the other two styles and the max hit is way higher than what you'd usually get for simple chaos runes
Bit of a noob question but how do you have the blue tile marked showing the tile where your character 'actually' currently is as well as the white one where you click?
Do you really need to Protect from range? With 95 def he doesn’t hit with decent gear (ranged attack) Especially with full HP regen every 10 minutes from the pile of cheese, who cares about 7 HP every other Kc???
It will help you learn the gauntlet a little bit if you don’t already know how to use f keys to switch between your inventory and prayer, but if you already know how to do that then it probably won’t help you much with learning the gauntlet.
I got the pet at kc 16 i think i was one of the first people in the world to get it when i was walking around yesterday i was treated like a celebrity every other person was asking me about it lol
"The player that does the most damage will receive a roll for the pet. This includes solo kills." Drop rate listed on the wiki as "Very Rare," but for comparison Mole drops its pet at a rate of 1/3000. 80 kc is (probably) nowhere near rate.
i think the issue with this boss is the loot, sure ppl can say its good exp but nmz will always be used more bcuz its afk. The pet is the only use this boss has imo. if u want gold, ur better off doing barrows. i understand its for mechanical lessons but it should drop something that makes the lower lvl players want to fight it. I'm assuming that u lose gold/trip bcuz the drops that u will get and supplies you use which can be a turn off from pvm imo. Like people dont even kill sarachnis and he atleast drops a usable item as cudgel for ironmen, ironmen i think have no reason to ever fight this boss besides the pet.
....it's an entry level boss man. The people killing it don't need 500k+gp/hr, they need an introduction to mechanics and good xp rates before doing most of the quests to make NMZ worth it. Relax.
Worst update of 2024 and so glad I'm quitting ahead of the curve before the game becomes fully tainted. Jagex team is corrupt and I'm now taking my talents to Fortnite :)

Good tips bro ty 🙏🏼
Don’t forget the full HP regen from the pile of cheese every 10 minutes. Hope this gets you to 30 kills a trip
That's actually about as good as active NMZ in my full Dharoks setup, that's actually insane!
This boss is just so awesome for mid level accounts! I'm really enjoying it on my iron man, and i even managed to the pet at 66kc :D

I hit base 70s in combat and trying to get into bossing, this guy is perfect for me and is SO FUN I love the mechanics
hey man, i also started learning bosses couple months ago when i was in the 70s and i had some fun learning sarachnis not gonna lie!
@user-sn3mq1ji1w what do you recommend for sarachnis? Is it good gp?
its decent gp ngl! in 153 kills i made 5M and i didnt get a unique yet plus 2 hard and 2 elite clues@@355scaper
also i liked it when i was in my 70s because i think its a pretty good boss to train on it uses melee from close and range from far and has minion spawns but its pretty easy@@355scaper

Definately do the 10 hours! Switch up combat styles for it and include xp rates :)
for this kind of boss, given the drop table.. it should have been a F2P imo
No way. It would be botted to all hell if it was F2P. The drop table is really good for early game and as easy as it is. Consistent gp, good supplies, and insanely good combat xp. That is not something a F2P boss could give imo.
That would hugely increase max xp rates for ftp and generate tons of gp for bots
I have a f2p HCIM and just no, I only want an ice giant boss equivalent . I voted no years ago on that golem mace being on par with rune weapons outside of golems. Takes away the prestige of smithing rune weapons.
It’s 7$…..

I said this in your loot from Scurrius video, with the Lightbearer, it makes the crystal halberd a viable spec weapon, especially for 3x3 bosses
Phenomenal boss. It's no raids 4, but if you recruit a new friend, they'll learn basic boss raid mechanics without the risk of endgame PvM chewing then spitting out hard.
Really good mage experience for cheap. Was helpful for my iron
If you have the D hally unlocked it's a huge help with the spec that deals massive damage to anything that takes up at least 2 tiles.
Might try that. I’m iron and my only spec is dds. So I should use Halley?
@@Thegodholms I recommend it, been hitting a bunch of double 25+
What do you think are the lowest requirements for this? Level and gear-wise
Im thinking for ironman if its only chaos runes for the staff ill go for that pet and get hella mage xp
What do you mean only chaos for the staff?
@@RamsFan93 thats all it takes to charge staff
@@bobbobby6123 cheers for your response, but I meant to ask 'what staff are you talking about?'
That's my bad
@@RamsFan93 the new staff from the boss. It provides extra damage to rodents and only cost chaos runes for charging
Does the pet drop in a private instance? Or does it just drop if you run it on normal without any other players?
isn't this a waste of prayer pots for ironmans?
Which bone weapon is best?
All 3 are good bro, use whichever combat style you want. This boss is an alternative to nightmare zone very cheap way to train magic
It's probably the staff, since this boss has a bit lower magic defense than the other two styles and the max hit is way higher than what you'd usually get for simple chaos runes
@@258thHiGuy true but i was just trying to kill him with the quickest weapon bc i need spines for prayer xp. Thanks for the replies btw guys 🤝🤝
Can’t you trade in the spines for like 5k xp in combats or 2500 in prayer?
Me trying to work out how you’re killing it faster than me when I’m 126cmb only to realise he’s gone from 500HP to 1500HP lol 😂
Thanks for posting this vid, it inspired me to give him a try and I got the pet in my first trip
A guy had this pet like 1 days after the quest release . Ive never seen it before till now .
im 75 att 81 strr 75 def, was thinking of grinding this boss for xp in obsidian armour, would it be worth using different gear when i get the mace?
Looks like the 117 team needs to give that place some lovin
I have 176kc but still 0 spines. Can anyone help? Is that a bug? The likelyhood of me having 0 spines is 0.2%...
Another OP weapon is the Sarachnis cudgel hits hard easy 1min kills
Late, but fyi you can one tick the minions with the bone weapons. 😊
Can you get the PET on a Private Instance?
There needs to be more bosses
I'm so happy they care about the mid game ❤
Interesting
RAT KING!
the afk kills are so bomb! just sit in max meele and put on protect from meele ez clap
I wish you did 1 hour and let us know the xp you get. Great video love your stuff.
Definitely gotta kill it for 10 hours to see if you get pet. Would love to see it!!
Bit of a noob question but how do you have the blue tile marked showing the tile where your character 'actually' currently is as well as the white one where you click?
I think it's true tile plugin on runelite
Do you really need to Protect from range? With 95 def he doesn’t hit with decent gear (ranged attack) Especially with full HP regen every 10 minutes from the pile of cheese, who cares about 7 HP every other Kc???
I mean if you already have 95 def you're probably not worried about the mid-level combat skilling boss to hit you for very much
can you cannon here?
10hr Scurry!
Mace + Chain = Flail lol who named that item in game. 😂
is his weapon better then rune scim?
ok so his weapons are only meant to use on him it looks like
Yes. You can only use the weapons created from the scurrius spine on rats, but the rat bone mace is better than a rune scim against him
the pet is 1/3000
Would this help me learn gauntlet? Or just throw myself into it? Cb 75 att 85 str 80 def 90 mage 93 range.
It will help you learn the gauntlet a little bit if you don’t already know how to use f keys to switch between your inventory and prayer, but if you already know how to do that then it probably won’t help you much with learning the gauntlet.
Best thing to do is go in. I am learning corrupted gauntlet right now but I have around 25 kc regular. This content will not help ya with cg at all.
@MrIfailatrs ok didn't know if any mechanics crossed over. I'm just full sending it at gauntlet. NOT STOPPING TILL SALAD AND BOWFA
My iron buddy got the pet at 7kc kekw
It looks pretty simple, but is it a safe death for hcim?
Prob not
why would it be a safe death?
I got the pet at kc 16 i think i was one of the first people in the world to get it when i was walking around yesterday i was treated like a celebrity every other person was asking me about it lol
Atm 654kc solo no pet 😢
Does pet drop in mass?
Make it f2p jagex
bro i tried this and my boss had like 2k hp i was not expecting that still won tho xdd
If you are not an iron man can you still get pet in private or does it need to be in the regular one to get the pet. 80 KC in no pet 😢
"The player that does the most damage will receive a roll for the pet. This includes solo kills." Drop rate listed on the wiki as "Very Rare," but for comparison Mole drops its pet at a rate of 1/3000. 80 kc is (probably) nowhere near rate.
Lol cry is free lil bro
80kc? try 3000kc and report back
does this man not know how the medieval lottery works?
101 KC and happy to report that I still have no pet :(
second

i think the issue with this boss is the loot, sure ppl can say its good exp but nmz will always be used more bcuz its afk. The pet is the only use this boss has imo. if u want gold, ur better off doing barrows. i understand its for mechanical lessons but it should drop something that makes the lower lvl players want to fight it. I'm assuming that u lose gold/trip bcuz the drops that u will get and supplies you use which can be a turn off from pvm imo. Like people dont even kill sarachnis and he atleast drops a usable item as cudgel for ironmen, ironmen i think have no reason to ever fight this boss besides the pet.
....it's an entry level boss man. The people killing it don't need 500k+gp/hr, they need an introduction to mechanics and good xp rates before doing most of the quests to make NMZ worth it. Relax.
Barrows is awful
The drop value seems too high
This should be F2P. Instance should have to cost GP to use.
