Strange Barrel

From RuneScape Classic Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Strange barrels are found in the Viyeldi caves during or after the Legend's Quest, and can be smashed to reveal a random monster or item, or both.

Getting There

[edit | edit source]

To reach the area containing the strange barrels, one must have started the Legend's Quest and passed through the dark metal gate in the dungeon. A hatchet and Machette are needed to enter the Kharazi Jungle, which must be trekked through in order to reach the dungeon, which can be found in the north-west portion of the jungle. A pickaxe, Lockpick, Unpowered orb, and runes for any enchant orb spell are also needed. For explicit directions about how to reach this area, please refer to the Legend's Quest page.

Smashing the barrels

[edit | edit source]

By selecting the 'smash' option on a strange barrel, the following can occur:

  • The player smashes the barrel (chance of success is dependent on the player's Attack level).
    • The player has a 20/30 chance to be attacked by a random monster.
    • The player has a 27/30 chance to roll the items drop table.
    • The barrel has a 3/30 chance to explode, resulting in a random amount of damage from 0-20, spawning no monsters and dropping no items.
      • If the explosion results in no damage:
        • "The barrel explodes...
        • But you take no damage..."
      • Otherwise:
        • "You smash the barrel open.
        • The barrel explodes...
        • ...you take some damage..."
  • The player could fail to smash the barrel.
    • The player has a 7/8 chance to hit the barrel at the wrong angle, decreasing Attack by 1-3 levels.
      • "You were unable to smash this barrel open.
      • You hit the barrel at the wrong angle.
      • You're heavily jarred from the vibrations of the blow.
      • Your attack is reduced by X."
    • Otherwise:
      • "You were unable to smash this barrel open."

The barrel will first roll the monsters table, and then subsequently roll the items drop table. There is a 27/30 chance to roll the items drop table.
