Dark beast

Dark beasts are level 182 monsters found on the path to the Temple of Light. They resemble ugly lions and require level 90 Slayer to kill. They are the only creatures to drop the Dark Bow and the only one besides Dragon implings to drop the Death talisman. They had an unmentioned graphic update that came out with the Dark bow.

Dark beasts are accessible only after the Mourning's Ends Part II quest has been started.

Location
They are found in the tunnels between the Mourner headquarters in West Ardougne and the entrance to the Temple of Light.

Mourner gear is required to enter the Mourner headquarters basement to access the tunnel to the monsters. An alternative would be going to the Death altar and exiting the Temple of Light east to the monsters.

Strengths and weaknesses
Dark beasts attack with Melee (jabbing with their horns) and Magic ("half" Fire Blasts), and hit maximums of 17 and 8 damage, respectively. They will only use their magic if the player attacked them first.
