Talk:Aberrant spectre

I saw a guy using Protect from Magic against Aberrant Spectres, and it seemed to block out their attacks. I don't know about Protect from Melee though... 01:24, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Mind Sheild
Do you need one of those? to fight them

You do not need a mind shield to fight them.--07stanleycup 21:47, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

I thought it was impossible to wear any helmet while wearing a nose peg, how Mind shield even found it's way in to this article, it escapes me somewhat. --Em lost 23:43, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

 * The page had been duplicated (copied and pasted twice). I've fixed it. 17:58, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Has anyone else exprienced what I have in the smoke dungeon - that drops are less than at other locations (specifically, there are more times when the monster drops nothing at all)? This seems tre for aberrants, basilisks, turoths, and kurosks. Even monstrous cave crawlers seem to have drops of nothing more often than regular cave crawlers elsewhere.

About Salve Amulet
I seriously don't think the Salve amulet (s) works on these guys. I wore it on one trip, but I didn't hit anything more than 25. I can hit 30 with the amulet. So the rest of the trip, I used a Fury. 15:12, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * It works/worked for me. My max hit was a little lowered though, probably because my rune defender was switched for an unholy boook, my dragon boots for white boots, and my helm of neitiznot for a nosepeg. What else do you use on other trips, that forgot on this one? Like a (super) strength potion, a strength prayer, swapped a whip for a dragon scimitar, etc... If your still unsure, try another few trips. You might just have been unlucky to not hit higher than 25. It can happen. Hope it helps. 19:47, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

New equipment pictures?
Surely the prayer potion user would be wielding either a god book (preferably unholy) or a falador shield 3? And the non-prayer user would have a spectral spirit shield/mind shield/saradomin book/elemental sheild? Why would you wear a magic defence reducing shield that gives a prayer bonus when not using prayer? 16:52, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

Tanking is Good
I went killing these guys with a magic def bonus of 103,defence level 71, and I only used about 1 monkfish per spectre. And an inventory of monkfish is cheaper than a single prayer pot. It seems to be the much cheaper option than prayer.-- Long Live Armadyl   13:45, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
