Charms

Charms are items used in the Summoning skill as a requirement to create Summoning pouches. They are obtained from monster drops or Thieving (level 52) from chests in Dorgesh-Kaan. Most of the time, they are dropped 1 at a time, making them slow to collect; however, some stronger monsters can drop multiple charms at once.

Obtaining charms
This section is designed to help you decide what to attack while trying to get as many charms as possible. The sections are divided not based on combat but the advantage of the level of the skill you are using, your hitpoints, your defence, and your prayer on the higher numbers (you can also use summoning if you are fighting monsters in a multi-combat zone).

Summoning charms can also be obtained as a random treasure by Thieving (level 52) from the chests in Dorgesh-Kaan.

* Bork will ALWAYS drop 5 blue charms and can only be fought once within a 24 hour period. Requires the completion of What Lies Below quest and completion of Chaos Tunnels: The Hunt for Surok.

Charm Drop Rates
The table below is the approximate drop rates of charms one may expect to obtain by killing 100 of that monster type. Information rarely reflects one person killing 100 of a monster type, but instead combines averages of 2 or more players each killing 50 or more and then extrapolating based on those numbers. This list is by no means all of the charm droppers. The total number can be higher than 100, because some monsters drop more than 1 charm. The only monster to have a 100% drop rate on charms is Bork.


 * Black demon charm drop rate is based on those located in the Chaos Tunnels, those in other locations have a significantly lower drop rate.
