Chaos Elemental

The Chaos Elemental is the game's fourth most powerful monster, with a combat level of 305 and 350 hitpoints. It was released on February 20, 2006. It bears resemblance to a dark cloud with six tentacles and has a lavender tint. It dwells in the members-only section of the Wilderness by the Rogue's Hideout. It also is currently the strongest Wilderness monster, overtaking King Black Dragon which held the title for 4 years.

Attacks
The Chaos Elemental's primary attack, thought to be magic-based, is a series of whorls of different colours fired at the target; however, the attack can hit for large amounts of damage even if players have activated protect from magic prayers. It also uses two special attacks. The first teleports players a short space to several screens away. The second unequips items that players are wielding, forcing them to take time to equip their armour and weapons before continuing the battle. The Chaos Elemental was introduced alongsides the Dragon two-handed sword, which it drops.

Drops

 * Dragon two-handed sword
 * 1000 Iron arrows
 * 100 Blood runes
 * Attack potion (1)
 * 500 Mithril darts
 * 1 Weapon poison
 * 500 Air runes
 * Dragon battleaxe
 * Dragon medium helmet

The Chaos Elemental is almost always hunted in groups, and it is coveted for the dragon two handed sword it drops, which sells at 1.5 milion gp. However, it is possible to solo the Chaos Elemental at a reasonably high combat level.

Tactics
The best way to kill the chaos elemental is to get fill up on currys as this cancels out the attack it does of unequiping anything you have on. Another tip is to put auto attack on and always keep a menu up with the option to attack the chaos elemental as when you get teleported you can just click on attack chaos elemental and quickly rejoin the fight.

Letters
The Chaos Elemental's letters in Postbag from the hedge hint at forthcoming updates, in a rather cryptic manner.

Letter 4
''Wait in the shadow realm: you are not of the blood nor sin. Up north the wind blows cold to Lumbridge and Ardougne, works like clockwork. Surok's gone to Chaos - lo, ladling Kirk: rumble in the library! Buy your tickets now. Way down deep where the frosts are clearing, way down deep where the dead are still fighting.

''Meanwhile, back in the caves, a blotched lord's inns eat exotic food and all that jazz. In the basement of the tower of life you'll find the homunculus; he's crossing a lobster with a jubbly! A spider with a sardine! A newt with a rooster! It's all underground, where there's a hole in my pocket. Pockets? The Chaos Elemental has no need for pockets!

Hi, Jimmy's a nontechnical pomps.

Lurk, thesis-stink! Oh, till goofier homonym.

Guaranteed slimes sing.

Ocarinas blast it: tell warranted variants.
