Abbyss guide! :]

[Mitch4?]

This is my first guide, so please don't yano. Slate me for it :] I do however appreciate constructive critistisms. Also watch my spelling! :p

The Abbyss Members only.




The abbyss on runescape is a quick way to enter any of the runecrafting altars quicker, it has an outer layer where their are monsters which you can kill for pouches, and inside layer where you can find the dark mage. As well as all the portals to the different altars.


Locating the Abbyss

The abbyss is in a dangerous spot, level 5 wilderness just north of edgeville. You can get teleported their by zamorak. You must of finished a quest to do so, I can't remeber which it is sorry :p. You also can buy different runes from him, at quite a cheap price! Which is handy if you don't got your own essance! :]



In the Abbyss Outter layer.


Monsters


On the outer layer of the abbyss are 3 different level creatres.

A leech, level 41.
These creatures hit a max of 2. So no real threat, apart from their high attack which means with quite a low defence you'll get hit multiple times. They're also very fast at hitting and hit you about 2x as a schimitar.



A guardian, level 59.
These creatures have quite a high attack and strength for their combat, but also have a low/medium defence. They can hit up to an 11 i've seen. So these are a bit of a pain.



A walker, level 81
These creatures have a really high defence. It's quite hard to hit them, but they also have a low attack level. So you won't be damaged to often by them. They also hit a max of 13, or so i've seen.



All three monsters drop the same type of things, these involve:

• Pouches
• Talismans
• Binding necklaces
• Pure essance, both normal and noted.
• Clue level 2

I think, but not certain they're the only way to get pouches. Other than the small one which you can obtain from the dark mage in the centre of the abbyss. Each monster only gives you 1/3 of the normal xp you'd get for hitting each one. So don't try and train down here. It's also a multicombat area, so you could have about 10 of these pesky little creatures hitting you at once!




How to enter the inner layer

There are a few essentials with each trip. I reccomend having 40/50+ Agility, 40/50+ Theiving, 60+ Woodcutting, 50+ mining, Firemaking 40/50+. There are multiple places on the inner side of the outter layer circle that allow you access into the centre. Bring a bronze axe, bronze pickaxe and a tinderbox.

Mining obstacle



Woodcutting obstacle



Firemaking obstacle



Theiving obstacle




You can fail the obstacle, and either click on it again to try again. Or run to a different obstacle. If you fail the obstacle in your message box, it'll tell you. But if you've got past it, the screen will change it's angle. Then you'll be chucked inside the centre of the abbyss!



In the Abbyss Inner layer.

Congratts man! You've made it to the inner layer, you've made it past the pk'ers and the monsters. Even the obstacles, theres nothing to stop you now! :]
Once you're here, it's completly safe. There are no monsters to bother you, just walk around the circle and choose the 'rift' you want. The rift is the teleportation device into the altar.



Once exited through the rift, you're at the altar. And you CAN'T get back to the abbyss without going back to Edgeville.



My reccormended items to take.


Remeber this is just what i reccomend, it doesn't have to be entirely true :]

• All the pouches you can take (one of each size)
• Good food, incase of pkers.
• Weilded bronze wc axe
• bronze pick axe
• Tinderbox
• Pure essance in pouches and in inventory.

With anything, you can vary the items you take! I tend to use bronze just incase of pkers. You get tons of free bronze pickaxe's at castlewars also!




My Reccomended items to wear



Once again this varies on what you can afford etc.



Some rubbish armour, about iron-adament. Only take what you're prepared to loose. I use black because i think it's enough with 62 defence. The glory is also optional if you're only doing once journey and are going to take telly runes.



Tips and tricks

• If at edgeville you go north east across the bridge, then up to the top where zamorak is, you'll have much more chance of not getting pk'd.

Remeber the abbyss drains your prayer once entered. So you can't use a protect from prayer.
Only 1/3 xp is giving for each hit that you'd normally deal. So this is not a good place to train.
You don't need to take no tiarars or talismans.
All the monsters have the equal number of drop rate on all their items.
If you forget a charged glory, telly to lumbridge, visit the bank and get our your charged one.
The astral altar cannot be accesed via. the abbyss

I hope this guide helped you! It took me a while, but it was worth it. I'm also like not the best person at remebering things. So if i leave anything out please tell me :] Thanks x mitch

nice guide dude, +rep

[JackBuddy]

Nice guide Mitchy poo +rep!
You spelt recommended wrong. ;p

[Ashley 12344]

Not bad, +rep.

It's best to wear Dragonhide armour when going through the Abbyss because alot of PKers use Freeze spells before attacking, Melee armour gives you a low magic defence and gives them the advantage.

Nice guide though.
