Recommended Equipment

 * This is an ideal place to use Guthans armour.
 * If you don't own Guthan's set, then good melee armour.
 * A weapon
 * Good food - Even if you do own Guthan's set, taking some food is a good idea because of the numerous traps within the lair.

Enter the Haunted Mine
Since the Haunted Mine quest is a prerequisite, players will know how to find the entrance (west of Burgh de Rott, south of the Zealot, Climb-over mine cart, Crawl-down cart tunnel). Once inside the mine, level 1, go north to the end of the path.

Reaching the Bank
The banker is to the northeast. To get there:
 * When entering the lair, go east past the floor traps and attacking monsters to the end of the passage.
 * Follow the path heading north (disarm the two wall traps by "searching" them, the southern one being attached to the western wall, the north one being attached to the eastern wall) and you will see the banker carrying a huge backpack.
 * It will cost 100 coins each time you use the bank. Some of the undead in the lair drop coins.
 * Restock, heal, and gather any and all materials you'll need for the next few parts. (Note: You can withdraw money from the bank ONLY if you brought 100 coins.)

Dungeon
There are many traps - you can tiptoe carefully, search, and disarm them, or stock up on food and take damage running - but there are many many traps. Tarns Lair Map
 * the route that you need to follow is D-S-T-U.
 * Pass through the doorway north of him and follow the path.
 * That means, by following the map, you go through the passage labeled D, then to the passage labeled S, then through the T passage, and finally to U. We'll go over the rest when you get there.
 * Go around the walls, ignoring all the other doorways on either side of the wall till you reach the dead end on the south-western side.
 * There should be 2 doorways here, one to the west and east. Take the western one.
 * There should be a room with a single giant skeleton. Ignore him and go onwards.
 * Go northward to the doorway, then in the next room ignore the monsters, avoid the floor traps, and take the exit west.
 * You will find yourself in a small passage. Go forward and take the passage north which has wall traps.
 * Go to the western doorway that you find after these traps and you will be at a room that has pillars.
 * Jump to the west ledge, search to find a switch which disarms the log trap (the southern one), then proceed north by jumping across the pillars.
 * From there, go east through the wall traps. Keep following the passage, carefully avoiding the receding walls by waiting until they recede. Take the doorway heading east.
 * Here you will find pillars again guarded by level 94 Skeleton mages. They will start attacking you when you reach the second pillar. It is recommended to turn on Protect from Magic prayer, ignore them, and go down the staircase on the other side.
 * In the next room, go north to Tarn's chamber. (Alternatively, take a breather, as this is the last safe room before the boss.)
 * Tarn, along with his animated steel armour and terror dogs, await.

Fighting Tarn Razorlor

 * It is advisable that, when entering Tarn's room, you have 2 prayer potions and 15 pieces of food (lobsters or better) left.
 * As you enter the room you will see a cut scene of Tarn transforming and unleashing his Terror Dogs. After this, the fight will begin. Steel armour (Level 53) will also animate and attack you if you move near them. Tarn is the only monster you need to kill, so ignoring the minions and turning off Auto-Retaliate is recommended.
 * Prayer is drained constantly, regardless of whether or not you have a prayer activated. As soon as the cut scene ends turn on protect from melee and attack Tarn, who is level 69 combat.
 * Using Dragon Dagger (p++) specials are recommended at this time. He can attack with both melee and magic, but attacks solely with melee if approached.
 * After you defeat his first form, he will turn into a ghost, but this form is easier to defeat, so keep attacking him whilst keeping an eye on your prayer points. As soon as Tarn is defeated, a room will open up.
 * After defeating Tarn, go into the next room and pick up Tarn's diary off a table, use this book with your salve amulet to create an enchanted/enhanced salve amulet, which gives 20% accuracy and Strength bonuses against the undead. There is a destroy option with the diary, and it can be easily reobtained through a bookcase in a Player-owned House.
