Ava's accumulator


 * This item is one of the Items Not Kept on Death.



Ava's accumulator is a reward from the Animal Magnetism quest if the player's Ranged level is at least 50. It randomly gathers and generates steel arrows directly into your arrow inventory slot. The generation rate is about one steel arrow every 180 seconds. Ava's accumulator has the best range attack bonus (+4) currently in game for the cape slot.

If a player's Ranged level was less than 50, Ava's attractor is obtained. This item can be upgraded when the player reaches level 50 Ranged for 75 steel arrows.

The device only works when worn in the cape slot, and the player may not be wearing any metal armour on their torso since it interferes with the magnet. Note that Granite armour and Fremennik armour are not metal armour so the attractor and those armour may be worn simultaneously. It also works while wearing a Bandos chestplate, sacred clay armour, or Varrock armour.

As of 4 January 2007, the device will collect most of the players' own arrows as they fire them, saving them from having to pick them up; but it cannot do this if there's something in the way. The arrows generation was also slowed with this update.

Attracted items
The accumulator works with:
 * Throwing knives
 * Darts
 * Throwing axes
 * Javelins
 * Crossbow bolts (including bone bolts)
 * Bow arrows

Other items that the accumulator can occasionally attract and deposit in the inventory include:
 * Iron ore
 * Steel med helms
 * Steel darts
 * Steel knives
 * Steel bars
 * Steel nails
 * Steel arrowtips
 * Toy mouse
 * Steel Arrows

Replacing Ava's accumulator
Note: To replace the accumulator, the player requires 75 steel arrows.

Players may return to Ava in Draynor Manor, and tell her, "I seem to need a new device." She replies that the player is lucky that the attractors/accumulators return to Ava when lost, but it will cost them 999 coins to cover her expenses in refurbishing it.

Once the fee is paid, players receive Ava's attractor. To upgrade the attractor into an accumulator, players have to tell her: "I'd like to upgrade my device, please." For this, Ava asks for 75 steel arrows.

When players have 75 steel arrows in their inventory, Ava takes the arrows and the attractor, and gives them the accumulator.
