Shantay pass (item)

The Shantay Pass is used to exit the southern gate from the Shantay Pass. Players can buy one for 5 coins from Shantay, who is near the gate. Players must use one each time they go through the pass, if they choose not to bribe the guards. A Shantay Pass can also be bought from Rasolo, the travelling merchant, located south of Baxtorian Falls.

It is interesting to note that if you have 5 coins and a full inventory, Shantay will not trade the 5 coins for the Shantay Pass, and he will tell you that your inventory is too full. In Runescape Classic, these passes were available to trade in F2P, resulting in scams.

Some players will use Shantay Pass as a somewhat secret shortcut to Port Sarim Jail. To do this talk to Shantay, and say (1) "What is this place" (2) "I am definetly an outlaw, prepare to die!" (3) "Deport me to Port Sarim!". Then, you must pick the lock, which can be done by right clicking on the jail door. It will usually take about 10 seconds to accomplish this. Once out, you are free to leave. This can be done by both Free to Play and Members.
