Wearing Saradomin or Zamorak aligned items will cause the bandits to attack you.

Bandits are attackable NPCs that can be found at various locations. At the Kharidian Desert Bandit Camp, the bandits here will attack anyone who wears ANY Saradomin or Zamorak clothing or accessories as they are supporters of Zaros. Because of this, many people use this to their advantage while training, and therefore earn a high amount of experience with little effort. They can be pickpocketed at level 53 Thieving, but it's recommended to pickpocket them at Pollnivneach, because any bandit at Bandit Camp is often killed for great combat experience. Pickpocking a bandit at the Bandit Camp may result in the bandit getting killed while you steal from it.

When players are near them wearing a Saradomin item , they will shout "Time to die, Saradominist filth!" Likewise, they will declare "Prepare to suffer, Zamorakian scum!" when they spot a player with Zamorak items. When players attack their fellows, they simply exclaim "You chose the wrong place to start trouble!" and attack you in a similar manner to the Al-Kharid Warriors.

It is possible for a player can achieve up to 60 000 - 70 000 experience per hour, depending on your Combat stats.

A good strategy for staying there longer is to bring some noted food items with you and restock by simply visiting the nearby general store, selling your noted food and buying it back in normal form.

Bunyips are also a good option to take with you. Take a few summoning potions (4) and bunyip pouches with you. Many players also use a Guthan's set to heal themselves when low on health.

Another method of training is to wear excellent prayer boosting Armour and use protect from melee. The Bandits drop the Ranarr's required in a Prayer Restore potion and the chances of breaking even with this method is fairly high. In most events, the runes collected should even out the difference between Ranarr's and prayer potions. This method allows for fairly casual training as prayer drains slowly and the player is not losing hitpoints. Also, if this method proves accurate, there is no repair expenses due to Barrow's degrading. However, Guthan's set allows you to stay here training for long periods of time, because the cost to repair the whole set is about 300k, and will last about 13 hours, most players can earn enough gold to repair the set in less than 2 hours so this is still a viable way of training.
