Attacks
Edit
Jungle strykewyrms don't hit very high with their normal melee and magic-based attacks, but they have a special attack where they tunnel under your feet, then push you back from beneath. This attack hits for over 1500 damage (varies depending on your maximum life points). You can easily avoid this attack by running away as soon as it starts tunneling.
It has 3 attack types:
- A fairly weak and inaccurate melee attack.
- A special attack when the wyrm buries itself into the ground and then bursts out with tremendous force, hitting 1641 plus. This attack can be avoided by running away. (This attack can be prevented by standing with your back or side to an obstacle, such as rocks. This is highly recommended.)
- A magic attack that looks like a large purple ball which explodes upon impact.
Jungle strykewyrms are poisonous, so bringing antipoison or super antipoison (or alternatively equipping an anti-poison totem) is advised. Additionally, the Cure Me Lunar spell may be used at level 71 Magic along with 2 astral and cosmic runes to cure the poison.
Healing On SiteEdit
There are lobster, tuna/swordfish, shark and big net fishing spots along the coastline, near the strykewyrms. Jungle vegetation can also be cut nearby. A player with a harpoon or lobster pot, hatchet, and tinderbox in their tool belt has access to an unlimited food supply by utilising this, as does a player with a bunyip familiar summoned and swallow whole scrolls in their backpack.
As a last resort, there is a bank in Mobilising Armies that's just a short run away, and can also be accessed with a ring of duelling.
WeaknessesEdit
Jungle strykewyrms are generally weak against stab attacks. They are also immune to poison (as shown by Monster Examine), due to their poisonous nature.
Once the strykewyrms spawn to the surface, whether after a special attack or an inspection, the wyrm will not attack for a few seconds. This gives you the opportunity to attack it without retaliation. When asked for tips, Slayer Masters note that they are inherently passive creatures, who become aggressive upon sensing the slayer's own ill intent.
As with all strykewyrms, the jungle strykewyrm will only perform its 1641-damage tunnelling attack if the 3x3 square area around the attacking player is free from obstructions. As the jungle area is littered with rocks and trees, players are likely to be able to move into a position where they can attack without fear of such a retaliation. If abilities are used properly, it is rare that they will have a chance to tunnel. The basic ability Havoc is an extremely effective first hit.
Since they attack with melee most of the time, melee armour is suggested for killing them. Using attack and Strength potions can increase your stay times and make the tasks and kill go faster, eliminating extra damage that may occur from slower kills. There is no need to bring super defence potions because they drop them quite frequently.

TriviaEdit
- Jungle strykewyrms, along with the rest of the strykewyrms, were the first monsters in RuneScape that made use of particle effects.
- The release of strykewyrms was hinted at by the Chaos Elemental in the Postbag a few weeks earlier and by the Twitter Clue "Three strykes and they're out" which is a pun on the baseball term Three strikes and you're out!. The Twitter Clue was also posted on Facebook.
