Poison karambwan

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

This article is about partially-cooked karambwan. For cooked version, see Karambwan. For the raw version, see Raw karambwan

Poison karambwan, formely known as poorly/partially-cooked Karambwan, is a fish that is obtained when a Raw karambwan is cooked poorly. Cooking requires a Cooking level of 1 and grants 80 Cooking experience. Eating poison karambwan will damage the player for 5 poison damage, however it only poisons once and not constantly, unlike most other poison. However, this trait can be advantageous: if a player uses a poison karambwan with a pestle and mortar, they create karambwan paste which can be used to poison spears. A karambwan can also be thoroughly cooked by a player turning it into a cooked karambwan. However, a player may only cook the poison version until they complete Tai Bwo Wannai Trio and talk to Tiadeche in his hut to learn how to cook it thoroughly.

No store sells poison Karambwan, but Tiadeche sells it raw.

A common scam was to offer low-hp players a partially cooked karambwan in the hope that they will get poisoned and die, dropping their items for the scammer to pick up. This scam was especially popular before the 8 July 2007 update, when it was possible to expel low-hp players from a POH and their HP would stay low. However, partially cooked karambwans have been renamed "poison karambwans" to better warn players not to eat it.
