Elf Warrior {Elf Camp} - Access and Combat Recommendations

Access Directions

This monster is the same as the Elf Warrior {Lleyta} (Level 90), except for differences in location and drops. Fighting in Lleyta is much more convenient, as it is fast to get to with an Elven teleport crystal, and there's a bank and prayer altar nearby. The advantages of the Lleyta ranging elves ends there, however.

The Lleyta elves drop uncharged and partly charged Elven teleport crystals instead of seeds, which are obviously less useful in most cases. .The Lleyta ones also don't drop charms, which obviously matters to those training Summoning. And finally, in Lleyta there are only two warriors and they aren't near each other, so combat is very slow.

The easiest way to get to the Elf Camp actually is from Lleyta. Teleport and bank there, then exit through the main entrance. Go west and carefully step over the tripwire; continue west through dense forest, then head southwest and then west along the shore of a water area. Turn north and continue all the way up towards Prifddinas; as soon as you cross the bridge, go through the dense forest to your west. Continue west to the elf camp, where there are numerous level 90 and level 108 elf warriors.

If you can't teleport to Lleyta, take the charter boat to the Tyras Camp. Head north through dense forest, then bend to the east and then continue gradually turning southeast through more dense forest. Pass a tripwire and turn east, going through still more dense forest. Continue northwest, watching for and jumping the leaf trap. Continue north, cross the log balance, and the camp is to the north.

Equipment

The Elf Camp is not near a bank, so you should plan accordingly, assuming you want to stay for a while. Higher-level players can get by with regular melee gear using a bunyip for healing (and some food). Other options for those with levels not quite high enough include Guthans or prayer enhancing gear.

Supplies

Always use super sets. Very high levels using a bunyip or other good healing familiar can get by with just moderately decent food; those without one need good food (unless praying, in which case you obviously need prayer potions). If fighting with prayer, use Zamorak brews and super strengths instead of super sets.

Bring a 1-dose antipoison potion in case you get caught by one of the trip wires; if you don't use it, just drop it to make inventory space.

Bring with about 10 sets of alching runes per hour.

Familiar

As mentioned earlier, a healing familiar is a good idea. An alternative is a beast of burden, which can also help with drops -- since these are far from a bank and drop lots of seeds, inventory space can be an issue.

Combat Notes

Ranger elves appear to use something similar to crystal bows, but they apparently aren't very good with them (despite their "Examine" text), as they don't hit very often. Even so, if they get lucky they can lay down a fair bit of damage, so be sure to watch your health.

The best spot to fight these seems to be near and just to the north and east of Lord Iorwerth's location in the middle of the camp.

Drop Notes

Elves are a good source of water runes and also provide a decent number of nature runes and alchables, along with smaller amounts of other items. The ones in the Elf Camp also provide decent numbers of high-level herb seeds and charms; the ones in Lleyta give no charms or seeds but drop uncharged and partially charged teleport crystals. While not really that valuable, having a decent number of these can be handy for certain activities, such as chopping the magic trees just southwest of Lleyta.
