Quests:
The Heart of Arrav
Talk to Arrav to start the quest. The aim is now to steal the heart of Arrav and store it in a canopic jar. To make the jar you will need: A canopic jar, sacred oil, dwellberries, and a ring of life.
Preparing the Jar
For the jar talk to Ernie upstairs in a building South of the East bank in New Varrock. Before giving you a jar, he will give you a cooking urn which you must fill. Gather some logs from a tree near the general store and walk over to the pen holding the zombie cows. After obtaining 10-12 raw beef from killing cows, light a fire and cook the beef to fill the urn. Make sure you do not have a partially filled cooking urn in the real world. Cooking on a Range also works. Return to Ernie and he will give you an Empty canopic jar.
To get the sacred oil, go to the same church from which you got silverlight from and use the prayer that matches the phrase Father Lawrence says. You will need to recharge your prayer points at the nearby altar in order to activate the correct prayers. They should be in order: Ultimate Strength, Rapid Restore, Eagle Eye, Protect from Summoning and Mystic Might. If you are on the Curses prayer book, you can use the altar to switch to normal prayers.
To make the the ring of life you will need a cut diamond, gold bar, ring mould, one cosmic rune and 10 earth runes. The diamond (which then needs to be cut) and ring mould can be purchased from Urist Loric in New Varrock square (or alternatively looted from a chest on the 2nd floor of the church) and the runes from the magic shop in East New Varrock. Gold ore can either be obtained from opening treasure chests or purchased at the furnace. Head over to the furnace south of the West bank to make the diamond ring. Then enchant the diamond ring to produce the ring of life. (If on the Lunar spellbook and are able to cast Spellbook Swap, then leave New Varrock and cast Spellbook Swap to switch to the standard spellbook. You will then be able to cast Enchant Level 4 Jewellery when you return to New Varrock.)
If you have red mist bottled, go to the ground floor in Zemouregal's castle and loot from the corpse behind the red barrier to obtain dwellberries.
Add all the things together and the canopic jar is ready to preserve the heart. Show the canopic jar to Arrav.
Obtaining the Heart
To go through the orange and purple barriers in the castle, you need to mix red mist with yellow to make orange mist and a blue dye with red mist to make a purple mist. Both yellow and blue dyes can be made by talking to Thessalia (clothing shop). The yellow dye requires an onion and a vial of water. An onion can be bought from Xuan (a few feet NW of the fountain) for 12 Zemomarks. The blue dye can be made from blue flowers that you grow after talking to the queen who can be found with the skeleton of King Roald in the room southeast of the garden inside the castle. Clear the patch beside Arrav, plant the flower seed and water the plot with the watering can Arrav threw away from the previous quest. Once the flowers are grown, pick one and talk to Thessalia to make the yellow and blue dyes. To obtain the vials of water, you can purchase the vials from the general shop and use the sink in the building a few feet northwest of the church to fill them, or you can get vials for free in the palace kitchen and fill them in the nearby sink.
Enter the Northwest room on the ground floor and search the desk for a code. Now go up to the first floor with the armoured zombies again while wearing the zombie outfit. Go North and walk through the purple mist then search the footlocker by the bed for a key.
Leave through the purple barrier and enter the eastern room and pick up some Decoder strips, or use ones from previous quest.
Open the big door near the stairs and use a mithril grapple hook with the crossbow you should have to get to the other side(64 ranged,64 strength, and 61 agility needed). If for some reason you need a strength stat boost(such as a god banner or potion), return to Varrock and drink it at your bank. Get rid of your bottle and return to New Varrock and continue. Now fill in the code using the decoding strips and the code you got from Zemouregal's desk to unlock the door. Enter the vault to obtain the heart of Arrav. Don't worry if your stat boost expired. The return trip has no requirements. Return to Arrav to show him the heart.
Arrav will need his shield to fight Zemouregal so go to the museum and distract Orlando Smith by pressing the big red button. If you don't distract Orlando, he will stop you from pickpocketing. While the animation is running, pickpocket the curator to obtain a key. Use the key to open the display case containing the shield and return to Arrav.
Confrontation with Zemouregal
Sharathteerk
Versus Sharathteerk
You will now be in control of Arrav, and you will have to fight the gargoyle Sharathteerk. You are wielding darklight and the Shield of Arrav, so you can only use one-handed melee and shield abilities. Sharathteerk is fairly straightforward to defeat if you make use of your abilities strategically. After sparing or killing him, pick up the health orb and go upstairs.
Zemouregal
The final battle.
Arrav will confront Zemouregal on the top of the palace. He will be shocked to discover that Arrav possesses the Shield of Arrav, and the final battle between the two enemies will begin. As before, you will control Arrav, and be able to use one-handed melee and shield abilities.
To damage Zemouregal, you must first destroy the three protection portals surrounding him. Each one defeated will drop a healing orb, which may be used to heal Arrav. After defeating all the portals, Zemouregal will be vulnerable, but after a few hits, he will summon more portals and some zombies. Defeat them as before, and then resume attacking Zemouregal. Zemouregal will periodically summon exploding zombie cows, try and lure these over to him or the portals to damage them.
After repeating this a few times, when Zemouregal reaches low life points, he will summon dozens of portals and lots of exploding zombie cows. Try and lure the cows over to the portals to destroy lots of them at once, just make sure you don't get hit by them yourself. The portals will still drop health orbs, and it will be vital for you to pick them up to survive. Once all the portals are destroyed, resume attack Zemouregal and kill him once and for all.
Freedom of New Varrock
After Zemouregal is dead, Arrav will meet up with you in New Varrock square and inform you of Zemouregal's death. He will also explain that he and the other zombies of New Varrock are now finally at peace and will be able to die. He will then collapse and die in front of you, and you will be returned to Varrock.
