Ent



Ents are one of RuneScape's random events. When a player tries to chop a tree, the tree has a chance of becoming an ent, also known as "dancing tree" to some players. Like most random events, its purpose is to stop macro users. Since the Ent can appear for each player, the odds of it showing up increase when woodcutting with more players.

The player must stop chopping it, or it will break the player's axe and render it useless. Once broken, a player can go to Bob's Brilliant Axes in Lumbridge to get the broken axe fixed. Bob will fix bronze, iron, and steel axes free of charge, and other axe types for a small fee. The stronger the axe, the higher the repair cost. Alternately, the axe can be repaired in a player-owned house, reducing the cost.

Also, players should beware of tree spirits, which may appear whilst cutting down trees.

Players are often known for yelling "Ent!" to help other players from breaking their axes.
