Template:RSW

A Shadow warrior is a deceased knight, back from the plane of death. However, they are not considered undead, so the salve amulet has no effect on them. After completion of Legends' Quest, Shadow warriors are also a slayer task given by Chaeldar and Vannaka. These monsters don't appear on the mini map. Shadow warriors appear to be wielding battleaxes, but they attack at the same speed as scimitars.

Habitat

The westernmost part of the Legends' Guild basement. There are numerous safespots around this area, but almost none that allow you to camp behind and continue to kill the warriors. You have to lure them every kill.
