Wolfbane



A Wolfbane is a member's only melee weapon. It has no level requirements, and its stats are similar to a mithril dagger. When wielded the dagger stops men and women in the town of Canifis from morphing into their more powerful Werewolf form. Since Wolfbane prevents the villagers from turning into werewolves, this method does NOT work for Slayer tasks.

The dagger is a reward for completing the Priest in Peril quest. If dropped or lost, the dagger can be reclaimed by talking to Drezel in the basement of the Paterdomus church. Multiple daggers can be obtained by using the Drop trick. The dagger has a +5 Prayer bonus, making it quite effective at extending prayer points. Only some expensive, rare weapons have better prayer bonuses.

This dagger is made of silver, so it is also effective against vampires, vampyre juveniles, and vampyre juvinates.
