Getting the Obsidian Shield (Toktz-ket-xil)
The obsidian shield, officially called Toktz-ket-xil, is obtained exclusively from the TzHaar Fight Cave minigame in Karamja. You’ll need to complete the entire Fight Cave challenge, which consists of 63 waves of increasingly difficult monsters, culminating in a battle against the fearsome TzTok-Jad.
Requirements and Preparation
Before attempting the Fight Cave, ensure you meet these recommended stats:
- 75+ Ranged (higher is strongly recommended)
- 70+ Defence for better survivability
- 43+ Prayer for protection prayers
- Access to decent ranged gear and plenty of food
The Fight Cave Process
Enter the Fight Cave through the entrance in the TzHaar city. You’ll face waves of TzHaar creatures, each more challenging than the last. The key is managing your resources – bring plenty of food, prayer potions, and ranged ammunition.
Wave 63 features TzTok-Jad, the final boss. This massive creature can hit over 90 damage with both ranged and magic attacks. Success requires switching protection prayers based on Jad’s attack animations – Protect from Magic when he rears up, Protect from Missiles when he stomps.
Shield Stats and Uses
The obsidian shield provides solid defensive bonuses with +30 stab, slash, and crush defence, plus +32 magic defence. It requires 60 Defence to equip and works well for mid-level players who want reliable protection without the cost of higher-tier shields.
Many players use this shield as a stepping stone before upgrading to more expensive alternatives like the Dragon defender or Avernic defender. For those interested in exploring more challenging content, you might want to check out some engaging obstacle-based adventures.
TL;DR
Get the obsidian shield by completing all 63 waves of the TzHaar Fight Cave, including defeating the final boss TzTok-Jad. Requires 60 Defence to equip.
