Araxxor is an instanced spider boss with 2,040 hitpoints. You need 91 Slayer to attack him, and ordinary attacks must use melee. His notable rewards include noxious halberd parts and the Araxyte fang.
Getting there
Choose Araxxor in the Sarim Hub, then enter the boss cave and confirm the instance. You need 91 Slayer to attack Araxxor. Creating this instance does not consume an instance token. Collect your drops before leaving: leaving or logging out destroys the instance you created.
Fight
Bring a crush weapon, food and prayer restoration. Crush is Araxxor's lowest melee defence bonus. Stay close and use Protect from Melee: this reduces his regular melee maximum hit from 38 to 12.
- Venom pools: Move off pools immediately. When told that you have been soaked in venom, keep moving through clear tiles as pools appear beneath you.
- White spiders: Mirrorbacks divert some damage dealt to Araxxor and reflect damage when struck at close range. Watch your health while dealing with them.
- Red spiders: These pursue you, stop nearby and explode. Move at least three tiles from a stopped red spider before the explosion.
- Green spiders: These add ranged attacks to the fight. Deal with them while keeping space to dodge the other hazards.
- Enrage: At roughly a quarter of his hitpoints, Araxxor becomes more dangerous and uses cleaves. When he shouts "Skreee!", move away from your current tile and its immediate neighbours before the strike and new venom pools appear.
Drops
After a kill, choose Harvest on the corpse for item drops, or Destroy to give up the regular loot for a chance at Nid. Claim one of these rewards before starting the next fight.
The table lists notable rewards per ordinary harvest roll, outside Gridmaster. Extra-drop effects can provide additional rolls.
| Item | Quantity | Rarity |
|---|---|---|
| Noxious pommel | 1 | 1/476 |
| Noxious point | 1 | 1/476 |
| Noxious blade | 1 | 1/476 |
| Araxyte fang | 1 | 1/952 |
| Araxyte head | 1 | 1/377 |
| Jar of venom | 1 | 1/1507 |
Pet
Choosing Destroy gives a base 1/501 chance of Nid per destroyed corpse, before Pet Hunter, temporary pet-rate and Camel Statue boosts. Destroying the corpse gives up its regular item loot.
