Introduction
Underneath the Karamaja volcano lies one of the Runescapes most challenging areas. This entire area is controlled by a powerful and ancient race known as the TzHaar. You can choose to either fight in the dangerous Fight Pits against some of Runescape's strongest players, or take on the challenge of fighting Runescape's strongest monsters in the Fight Caves. If you are one of the few who is succesful in either of these challenges, you will be rewarded with Tokkul, which you can redeem for an impressive range of new and unique equipment, such as new weapons, a new shield , new jewlery and a new gem , capes and ores and runes you can buy from the local stores!
Finding your way to the area is easily achieved. The easiest way to get there is to use a Amulet of Glory to teleport to Karamaja and then walk to the volcano. You can also get there via the boats that leave Ardougne and Port Sarim. Once you enter the volcano, you will see a cave entrance -- this is the entrance to the TzHaar Caves.
Map
Walking through the area you will encounter many of the TzHaar creatures. These can be killed to obtain Tokkuls, or if you're lucky, they will drop one of the new weapons. You will find a variety of shops in the TzHaar Caves. This is the only place you will find a shop that sells the new weapons, unless you can find a player selling them. However, please remember that the shops in the TzHaar Caves will only accept Tokkuls as payment. As we've mentioned, you can kill some of the TzHaar creatures to get some Tokkuls, or you can sell some runes to the local rune shop to get Tokkuls in return. You will also notice Sulphur vents in quite a few locations -- these can be used to cook your food.

The Fight Pits
The Fight Pits is a place where the TzHaar race holds daily contests to find the strongest warrior. The Fight Pits are found on the Western side of the caves -- just go to the bank and keep walking to the West. There there are no limits to what items you can take into the Fight Pits. For example, you can take along a super set, a couple of prayer pots, and a poisoned weapon. If you're planning on fighting against lvl's 100 , you might want to take some food. Well, if you want to win, that is. If you die in the Fight Pits you will not lose any items, and you will not be teleported to Lumbridge. Instead, you'll simply be teleported back to the waiting area. Whilst in the Fight Pits, you will notice a list of how many players are still alive and the name of the previous at the top of your screen. You can also identify the champion by a red skull above his or her head(see picture below). Some players will attempt to hide in the corners -- this can buy you some time, but eventually you will be found.
TzHaar Champion
When you are teleported back to the waiting room, you can still watch the players fighting by clicking on the viewing orb. This will give you a view of the Fight Pits. You can also choose which section of the Pits you want to look at by clicking the menu on the right.
Orb Selection
Fight Pit Strategies
Although the goal of the Fight Pits is fairly simple, achieving this can be quite a task. If you attempt to win fighting solo you will be killed very quickly regardless of your level. Whilst waiting for the fight to begin, it is generally fairly easy to join a team. Simply look for other people who have a similar combat level, and ask them if they want to team up. Having a mage on your team will also greatly increase your chances of winning.

The Fight Caves
The Fight Caves is the ultimate man vs beast challenge for Runescape's strongest players. It consists of battling countless monsters, ranging from level 22 all the way up to the level 702 TzTok-Jad. Ouch! If you wish to complete this mini-game successfully, you will need to have a highcombat leve(110 ). We have provided a suggested inventory for you below, however this will vary depending on your character's levels.

The Monsters
Tzhaar Fight Cave monsters.
Pic Monster name Level Description
Tz-kih Tz-Kih 22 This monster is a fiery little beast...when the 360s are coming at you, WATCH OUT, they drain your prayer!
Tz-kek Tz-kek 45 his monster gets annoying, whenever you hit it, it hits you back one as if it had a ring of recoil that always hits 1. It also spawns two of the Tz-kek (lvl 22) monster when it dies
Tz-kek Tz-kek 22 This is the spawn of the tz-kek (level 45), good for healing on.
Tok-Xil Tok-Xil 90 This annoying beast shoots you with a ranged attack that can hit you fairly well at times. He uses melee as well. Always kill him first, before any of the other monsters.
Yt-mej kot Yt-mej kot 180 Sometimes deadly, can hit for 25, and often. Also heals itself, so make sure to pay attention to your HP.
Ket-Zek Ket-Zek 360 This monster uses magic and melee attacks, so be sure to have protect from magic prayer ON, then range it or mage it. Do NOT get within melee range, unless you have a death wish.
TzTok-jad TzTok-Jad 702 The big kahuna, the mother of all monsters. It uses magic and range attacks. Has a different animation, so you can tell which attack will be used before it actually uses it, so you can choose which prayer you'd like to use. Ring of stone NOT needed.
Return to Top
Strategies and Tactics
The following strategies and tactics assume that you will be using the suggested inventory above. Throughout the process, always save the lower-level monsters for last, except for the level 90 Tok-Xil. Always kill him first. You would be best killing the Tz-Kih's as well, since they drain your prayer! This way you can heal after losing some HP to the level 90.
Getting to the 90's
Getting to the level 90's isn't very hard, just wear your guthans and you shouldn't have any problems.
Getting to the 180's
It gets a little harder here, but it still isn't too bad. The level 90's can do some damage, but not enough to worry about. Guthans should heal you completely. Just be sure to pay attention to what's happening around you. When you see two level 90's and one has a different colour face, the next spawn, or round, is the level 180.
Getting to the 360's
Here it can get tricky, because the 180's can hit hard and often, sometimes before you can heal. When you have level 90's coming at you at the same time as the 180's, be sure to kill the level 90's FIRST before you even bother with the level 180's. Trap the level 180 behind the level 90 and finish it, otherwise you will get shot by two of them at once and wil die fairly quickly. If needed, eat, and take a super defense potion. When you get two level 180's, you'll be almost to the level 360's. There are roughly 17 level 180's, so you can keep track if you like. After you are about to kill the second level 180, use pray potions, and put your protect from magic prayer ON the second you kill it.
Getting to the boss
OK, now it's time to change out of that hot guthans gear, put on your karils bow and range gear, and use your range potion. Keep protect from magic prayer ON as you kill the level 360, and when the prayer suckers start coming at you, kill them before they attack you. If you don't, your prayer will drain fast. When the the level 45's start to appear, do not bother with them until after the level 360 is killed.
Level 360 combat
As soon as the level 360 is dead, and you still have the level 45's attacking you, turn your prayer OFF. If your HP is low, put on your guthan and kill one of them. When it spawns into two after you kill the first one, put your prayer back ON. When they are dead, put your range gear back on. Soon the level 90's will come at you along with the level 360's. Kill the level 90's FIRST, as they can be deadly. Since you have the protect from magic prayer ON, the level 360 can't hurt you. Soon you will have level 180's coming at you at the same time as the level 360's. You can do one of two things here -- either go to a safe spot and range the level 180, or trap it behind the level 360. It's your choice, but we recommend the safe spot. After the level 180 is dead, trash the 360. Remember to kill the prayer suckers quickly. Here's a pitcure of the safe spot:
Level 360 combat
Soon the 180's and the 90's will come at you at the same time as the 360's, which is where it gets tricky. Stay out of the way of the 180's at first, and kill the 90. Then go to a safe spot, kill the 180, then finish the 360. Remember, don't kill the 45's until after you kill the 360. This will save prayer and will give you a chance to heal. Eventually, after killing approximately 31 level 360s, you will have two final level 360s to kill, and one will be orange. This means that after they are dead, you will move on to the final boss, the big kahuna, mr jad.
Killing the boss
There are two ways to do this: lure it and kill it, or the hard way. First, the lure and kill method. When the big one is coming at you, you should have protect from magic ON, and you should be standing here:
Starting Spot
If you are ABOVE 90 hp, and have protect from magic ON, run to it and shoot it, then run to the spot shown in the picture below. If you get hit, EAT until you're above 90 HP, or you will die. Now run to the spot in the picture below. If you get too close, you will get hit, and if you're too far back, he will wander off and you'll have to start over.
Second Spot
When the healers come, put on LONG RANGE and attack them. Kill them fast, or they will heal him. Now for the hard way, without using the safe spot! And pay attention, because this can get confusing. This bad boy uses range and mage attacks. It appears that he always starts with a range attack, so as soon as the level 360's are dead, eat to FULL hp, turn on prayer to FULL and turn ON protect against range prayer. His range attack is a bit shorter than his mage attack, but you'll be able to tell the difference. His range attack is 'rocks' falling from the ceiling, and his mage attack is a fireball. He sort of winds up more for the mage attack. Make sure to get the right prayer on at the right time, or you will likely get one-hit. When you get this crazy beast down to half his HP, he calls level 102 healers to help him. If you can, kill them -- it will make it much easier.
The fire cape
If you get this far, we offer our congratulations for killing the strongest monster in Runescape! For your efforts, you will be rewarded with a beautiful rare fire cape.
Fire Cape
The cape is untradeable so only the very strongest and bravest players own them. Wear yours proudly, and show everyone what kind of warrior you really are!
