OK Guys and Dolls, now it’s going to get rough if you are not around at least level 40 or so. But if you are being daring or you just don’t want to die - make sure that at this point you are carrying food that replenishes alot of HP and some teleport runes.

The first obstacle is a room full of level 50 Spiders! Luckily there are no poisonous Spiders on free worlds as of yet, so you can basically just run through the room and endure only a few points worth of damage. I just want to point out at this time that for you higher level players these Spiders are a great way to train to raise up Attk. Str. or Def. because they are high level but pretty easy to kill - Though they drop no loot, these scuttling arachnids are just ripe with experience points.

  Just keep pushing on past the funky “question” doorways until you get to the area shown below. Then press on, into the large cavern where you,ll meet the creatures who drop the THIRD part of the Sceptre, the TOP.

 There are alot of rather goofy names used on Runescape, but prepare to encounter one of the lamest-named creatures on the game…

Enter…CATABLEPON… Yes, that’s right Catablepon. Not sure the origins of that name, but these fellows do pack a punch as well as draining your STRENGTH stat by about 10 percent so beware! Though these odd critters drop pretty boring stuff, (water and body runes for example) the exp. is pretty good and this is where to pick up that third section of the staff. Plus the scenery makes for a nice change of visuals when you get tired of training elsewhere.

 So go after them, and when you get what you need, it’s time to go a level deeper and get some slimy skeletons for the fourth and final piece of our Skull Sceptre!

  Now the going gets a bit rough for lower level players! Find your way down to the second level of the dungeon. There are lots of Zombies in the initial chambers of this level. Ignore them for now and head toward the deeper rooms in the maze-like catacombs. eventually you will see the occasional spiderish/scorpionish Flesh crawlers.

These creatures that drop the second component of the Sceptre are extremely aggressive and will attack relentlessly upon entering their territory! So take lots of food if you have trouble with creatures of level 35. Again you will have to go through the maze and the question doors ( Though thank god you no longer have to answer the questions every time once you have made it through the same questions! ) to get to the small room where this screenshot was taken. You need not get all the way here, but your odds of getting a Sceptre drop are much better in here.

These ugly bastards do not drop the greatest loot, but if you are of a level that can handle them easily they are great experience. As with all aggressive critters, you needn’t click on them to attack constantly, they come at you and you can just kick back and eat and pick up drops as necessary. So just let the slaughter begin and soon you will get the second part of your Sceptre.
