Mummy

Mummies are undead creatures found in the Pyramid Plunder minigames, during quests such as Desert Treasure and Dealing with Scabaras, and in the Chaos Tunnels.

Mummies are the only monsters that can drop Ancient staves, although this is a quite rare drop. If you've purchased an Ancient staff from Eblis and lost it, and do not want to buy one from another player, killing these monsters is your only choice.

Strengths and weaknesses
The level 100 mummies can deal moderate damage for their level, hitting a maximum of 200 life points. The level 110 mummies are slightly stronger, with a max hit of around 220, and can hit consistently even through strong melee defence (such as Robes of subjugation). They aren't too dangerous, but if necessary, players can use Protect from/Deflect Melee to reduce damage taken. This is especially recommended when fighting mummies in desert areas such as Ullek, where many players wear Desert camouflage gear or Desert robes instead of life point boosting armour, to reduce water consumption and avoid the effects of desert heat. Mummies have a moderate melee defence and high ranged defence, which suggests that players use potions and stat boosting prayers if engaging them with these methods.

Mummies are Undead, which means that wearing a Salve amulet (e) provides a significant combat boost. Mummies are primarily weak to fire magic spells. When hit by a fire spell, the mummy catches on fire, although this effect does not cause any more damage than the spell itself. (The Mummy Champion actually rises in level when catching on fire.) When a burning mummy is killed by a fire spell, the mummy turns into a level 96 'Mummy ashes' standing, charred corpse, and then collapses and disappears, with the mummy's drops then appearing.

There is an area in the Chaos Tunnels with 12 non-aggressive level 110 mummies. If the player uses a decent fire spell, they can get a good kill rate, and the drops of herbs, jewellery, rune items, and Ancient staves will help pay for runes and/or food consumed.
