Clue scroll


 * Perhaps you are looking for the Treasure Trails Guide?

A clue scroll is an uncommon or rare drop from many monsters. They involve a treasure hunt around RuneScape, and at the end of it, the player has a chance to obtain some rare and/or extremely valuable loots.

While completing a Hard or Medium Treasure Trail, you must have a chart, sextant, and watch in your inventory. Think of it as the RuneScape equivalent of geocaching. If you don't have the chart, talk to the professor in the Observatory. To get a watch, talk to Brother Kojo at the Clock Tower south-west of Ardougne. To get the sextant, talk to Murphy at Port Khazard. You will also need a spade to dig up the chest.

Clue scrolls come in 3 Levels, the higher level of the monsters you need to kill, the higher the level of the clue. See our Treasure Trail guide to solving these.


 * Level 1 clues are the simplest, and are dropped by low level monsters such as Men. They are normally short and involve no risk to the player. You can occasionally get trimmed Black Armour from these clues. A level 2 Man or a level 2 Goblin are the lowest level NPCs to drop them, however without combat they can be stolen from a H.A.M. Member. High Agility and Thieving make this far simpler, but it can be done at Level 20 Thieving and Level 1 Agility.


 * Level 2 clues are more complex and often feature Co-ordinates. You can occasionally get trimmed Adamant Armour from these clues. Level 21 guards are lowest level NPC to drop them.


 * Level 3 clues are long, feature regular trips into the Wilderness, and are occasionally dangerous as a Zamorak Mage or Saradomin Mage may attack you. You can occasionally get trimmed Rune Armour from these clues. Level 56 Cyclopes at the Warriors' Guild are the lowest Level monsters to drop them.

Wearing a ring of wealth does not affect the drop rate of clue scrolls.
