Chambers of Xeric

The Great Olm is the raid boss of Chambers of Xeric: ranged on the head, melee on the south claw, magic on the north claw, and a stack-up teleport you can't ignore. Twisted bow at 1 in 1,210 per chest.

The raid boss of Chambers of Xeric is the Great Olm: a head in the middle of the chamber with a claw on either side. Enter through the raid portal in Edgeville with 100 combat. See Raids for how the reward chest works.

The Head and Claws

PartHitpoints (solo)Damage it with
Head (middle)2,400Ranged only
Left claw (south, nearest the entrance)300Melee
Right claw (north)300Magic

The head can't be hurt while either claw is alive, so kill both claws first. A claw hit with the wrong style takes only a third of the damage, and the claws never attack. When the head falls to two thirds and then one third of its health, both claws come back at full health and the head is protected again. A single melee hit of 15 or more makes the left claw clench shut for about 5 seconds.

Olm's Attacks

Olm attacks about every 5 seconds with magic (up to 27) or ranged crystals (up to 29). It starts on magic and sometimes switches, and the matching protection prayer blocks each attack completely. Between attacks it cycles through these:

AttackWhat to do
Crystal bombMarks every player's tile; move 2 tiles away within 3 seconds
LightningTwo rows of strikes; stay off the marked tiles
TeleportOlm names a player: everyone stack on them
Healing poolsStand in them, or each one heals the head 12 a tick

In the final phase crystals fall on every player every 3 seconds, so keep moving. Floor attacks like these ignore prayer and can kill you. A full Justiciar set or an Elysian spirit shield reduces them.
