OSRS Moss Giant Guide

osrs moss giant guide

Moss giants are formidable creatures found within the world. These hulking, green-skinned monsters are a staple of the game and provide valuable resources and experience for adventurers.

Locations

Moss giants can be encountered in various locations throughout Gielinor. Knowing where to find them is crucial for efficient training and loot gathering.

Location: Moss Giants can be found in several locations throughout Gielinor, including:

  1. Crandor Island: You can reach Crandor Island via a ship in Karamja. Moss Giants on Crandor are often less crowded, making it a good spot for slaying them.
  2. Varrock Sewers: The Varrock Sewers is another common location for Moss Giants. You can access them by using the ladder in the southeastern part of Varrock.
  3. Brimhaven Dungeon: If you have a bit higher combat stats, you can find Moss Giants in Brimhaven Dungeon. Access to this location requires 875 coins to pay the dungeon entrance fee.

Gear Setup

Recommended Gear and Inventory:

  • Melee Combat Gear: Moss Giants are weak to slash attacks, so bring your best slashing weapon, such as a Rune Scimitar or a Dragon Scimitar.
  • Armor: Wear the best available melee armor you have. Dragonhide or Karil’s crossbow bolt racks can also be useful for extra protection.
  • Food: Bring some food to heal during the fight. Lobsters, sharks, or better food are ideal.
  • Teleportation Items: In case you need to make a quick escape, consider bringing teleportation items like Amulet of Glory or Teleport Tablets.
  • Prayer Potions (Optional): If you have a high Prayer level, you can use Protect from Melee to reduce the damage taken.

Slaying Moss Giants:

  1. Locate Moss Giants in your chosen spot (Crandor Island, Varrock Sewers, or Brimhaven Dungeon).
  2. Approach a Moss Giant and start attacking it with your chosen melee weapon. If you are using the Protect from Melee prayer, activate it to reduce the damage taken.
  3. Keep an eye on your health, and eat food as needed to stay alive.
  4. Loot the Moss Giant’s drops. They may drop valuable items like herbs, runes, and bones that you can bury for Prayer experience.
  5. Continue slaying Moss Giants until you’ve achieved your experience or loot goals.

Tips:

  • Consider using the “Protect from Melee” prayer to reduce damage and save on food consumption.
  • Utilize area-of-effect (AoE) attacks if you have them, as they can make killing Moss Giants more efficient.
  • Pay attention to your combat stats and gear, and strive to upgrade your equipment as you level up.
  • Be mindful of other players in crowded areas, as they might be competing for the same Moss Giants.
