1-99 OSRS Range guide - Alternative AFK methods

Level 1-99: Ammonite Crabs

Location: Fossil Island (requires completion of Quest: Bone Voyage!)
These monsters are magnificent to train on as an easily AFKable method. They have 100hp, meaning each crap provides a vast amount of experience per kill, plus their deadliest hit is limited to a total of 1hp damage. This means that you’re safe from death, as they won’t be able to kill you, providing you have some form of defense!

Note that while these are fully AFK’able, there are quicker methods to gain more experience per hour.

Level 61+: TzTok-Jad

Killing TzTok-Jad takes around 1 hour with a full gear setup, this boss is worth your time as it awards the coveted ‘Fire Cape’ upon death for the first time. Show others your amazing OSRS range skills with your very own Fire Cape!

Level 61+: King Black Dragon (KBD)

OSRS King Black Dragon (KBD) Once you hit level 61 ranged, you can very quickly go and join a team to kill the King Black Dragon. Using Ruby and Diamond bolts are your best bet against this boss for maximum damage.

Kree’arra is the Armadyl boss. The best way to kill her is using Ranged as well. You may wish to look up the best method for fighting here, as her attacks can take some getting used to. Kree’arra drops some great level 70 ranged armor for those going for a new and improved look, or for those of you wanting to make a quick buck or two.
