Living rock striker

Living rock strikers can be found throughout the Living Rock Caverns.

They have very high life points, decent drops, and are fairly easy to kill, despite looking threatening and defensive. They are weak to crushing weapons such as the Chaotic maul and Saradomin sword. If a good crush weapon is not available, a stabbing or slashing weapon will suffice. .

A set of Verac's armour is one of the most effective methods of killing Living Rock Strikers. This creature is weak to the crushing style of verac's flail, and their defences are sometimes ignored due to its effects. With the use of a bunyip familiar, you will be able to regenerate your lost health well within the time it takes to kill one striker.

A set of Guthan's armour is also very effective here as a player can stay the whole task with a good defence level. Living rock strikers will only use their ranged attack if you attack it and are not within melee range. This attack hits much more frequently and consistently harder than their melee attack. As with all other living rock creatures, the strikers are immune to the effects of poison. In addition, they are aggressive, but the player must be right next to them to be targeted. A player with good clicking skills could navigate the cavern without being attacked at all. These can generally be really annoying to deal with when fishing rocktails or mining gold and coal deposits.

Their remains can be mined to receive living minerals and 25 Mining experience. A Mining level of at least 73 is required. The minerals serve as bait for fishing rocktails at level 90 Fishing.
