If you own {{TotH}}[[Throne of the Herald Expansion]], {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} and {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} will be easily replaced by weapons such as {{ItemIcon|Heated Fury 2H Hammer}} and any of the {{Skill|Runecrafting}} [[Wands]].

{{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} doesn't have a direct easy upgrade in {{TotH}}[[Throne of the Herald Expansion]] but if you own {{AoD}}[[Atlas of Discovery Expansion]] then {{ItemIcon|Engulfing Vortex Longbow}} is a much better weapon that doesn't really get replaced unless you have {{ItemIcon|Merman Pendant}} or at level 120 by {{ItemIcon|Feather Storm Crossbow}}.

Following completion of {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}}, you now have access to {{ZoneIcon|Dark Waters}}, the penultimate slayer area. These 3 mobs drop fragments for the Level 90 weapons, the highest level, and often most powerful, weapons in the base game that are extremely helpful in completing the following slayer area, as well as the Impending Darkness Event. These are extremely long grinds, and require quite a bit of preparation. Each weapon requires 100 fragments, and the fragments have a 2% drop rate. That's 5,000 kills on average.
 
We recommend acquiring them while fighting each monster as a slayer task, this will require you to turn OFF auto-slayer, and will encourage semi-frequent check-ins. Doing these on task will increase your damage dealt to them from various buffs. This will make the order you obtain the final weapons in effectively random, but if you don't want to deal with the hassle of rerolling, or simply want to do them in a specific order, we recommend the following:
 
* {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} - Made from {{ItemIcon|Shockwave Fragment}}, dropped by {{Icon|Rokken|type=monster}}
* {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} - Made from {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song Fragment}}, dropped by {{Icon|Ku-tul|type=monster}}
* {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} - Made from {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge Fragment}}, dropped by {{Icon|Umbora|type=monster}}


Additionally, you should also acquire the pet {{PetIcon|Otto}} whilst doing this grind, if you do not, continue farming whichever mob you kill the fastest on or off task until you get it.

That's 5,000 kills on average without any [[Combat/Boosts#Doubling_Boosts|double drop boosts]].


Item fragments are very rare drops, (the average amount of kills required to obtain all of the drops with no doubling is 5000 per monster), and it should be noted that there is a {{Skill|Township}} Task that requires the player to Kill {{Icon|Ku-tul|qty=5000|type=monster|noicon=true}}, {{Icon|Umbora|qty=5000|type=monster|noicon=true}}, and {{Icon|Rokken|qty=5000|type=monster|noicon=true}}, therefore Item Doubling is not as important for this specific grind as it might otherwise be.

Additionally, there is another {{Skill|Township}} Task that requires 1 of each {{ItemIcon|Shockwave Fragment|Fragment}} and rewards 3 of each Fragment, to shorten the grind a little.

Line 32: Line 24:
After completing the task, or if you simply want your first copies as soon as possible, you should attempt to sneak in as much item doubling into your gear as possible. Using the Combat Simulator to measure your Drops/hr with no deaths is highly recommended.

==Order==
== Order ==
We recommend acquiring them while fighting each monster as a slayer task, this will require you to turn OFF auto-slayer, and will encourage semi-frequent check-ins. Doing these on task will increase your damage dealt to them from various buffs while also allowing you to complete Master Slayer tasks for the Master Slayer items, if you do not already have them. This will make the order you obtain the final weapons in effectively random, but if you don't want to deal with the hassle of rerolling, or simply want to do them in a specific order, we recommend the following:


The order you obtain these items in is not particularly important.
* {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} - Made from {{ItemIcon|Shockwave Fragment}}, dropped by {{Icon|Rokken|type=monster}}
* {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} - Made from {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song Fragment}}, dropped by {{Icon|Ku-tul|type=monster}}
* {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} - Made from {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge Fragment}}, dropped by {{Icon|Umbora|type=monster}}
* '''Alternatively Order:''' Tidal Edge -> Shockwave -> Ocean Song


Using the weapons obtained from killing each monster makes sense, unfortunately, they have historically not always the best available options, however a balance patch in Melvor Idle 1.1 has changed the meta an amount, and this guide will strive to stay updated. For now, the only recommended order is to obtain {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} and use it to obtain {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}}.
Additionally, you should also acquire the pet {{PetIcon|Otto}} whilst doing this grind, if you do not, continue farming whichever mob you kill the fastest on or off task until you get it.  
 
Again:
 
- {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} then {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} then {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}}
 
- {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} then {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} then {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}}
 
Between those two, the required time is roughly equal.


Many people combine the grinding of these weapons with the grind for the master slayer gear. An added benefit is the increased damage given by the {{ItemIcon|Slayer Skillcape}} and buffs from {{Skill|Astrology}} while fighting slayer tasks. Another benefit is the ability to buy prayer points, {{ItemIcon|Light Rune|Light Runes}}, and [[Food]] ''at a profit'' with the use of {{Icon|Generous Resupply}}.

==Requirements==


There are very few hard requirements beyond the ability to survive and the entry requirement of {{SkillReq|Slayer|90|showtext=true}}, but there are several skills and items that will make this grind significantly easier, and we would be remiss to not mention them

Mixing and matching between the 2 sets is highly discouraged. Please use the separate sets as they are.


The ring and gem can be swapped without concern for damage reduction (refer to Set 2 for recommended options).

Disclaimer

None of these weapons are actually required to beat
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Impending Darkness Event. If you own Throne of the Herald Expansion, Ocean Song and Tidal Edge will be easily replaced by weapons such as Heated Fury 2H Hammer and any of the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Runecrafting Wands.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Shockwave doesn't have a direct easy upgrade in TotH but if you own Atlas of Discovery Expansion then Engulfing Vortex Longbow is a much better weapon that doesn't really get replaced unless you have Merman Pendant or at level 120 by Feather Storm Crossbow. All drop estimates were done without any Pets,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology or
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Pillar of Combat. Having these will significantly increase your drops per hour.

These guides are aimed at optimal Fragment drops per hour.

The Combat Simulator exports can be found here.

Dark Water Level 90 Weapon Farming

Following completion of
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Into the Mist, you now have access to
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Dark Waters, the penultimate slayer area. These 3 mobs drop fragments for the Level 90 weapons, the highest level, and often most powerful, weapons in the base game that are extremely helpful in completing the following slayer area, as well as the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Impending Darkness Event. These are extremely long grinds, and require quite a bit of preparation. Each weapon requires 100 fragments, and the fragments have a 2% drop rate. That's 5,000 kills on average without any double drop boosts. It should be noted that there is a
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township Task that requires the player to Kill 5,000 Ku-tul, 5,000 Umbora, and 5,000 Rokken, therefore Item Doubling is not as important for this specific grind unless you wish to skip some of the weapons. Additionally, there is another
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Township Task that requires 1 of each Fragment and rewards 3 of each Fragment, to shorten the grind a little.

After completing the task, or if you simply want your first copies as soon as possible, you should attempt to sneak in as much item doubling into your gear as possible. Using the Combat Simulator to measure your Drops/hr with no deaths is highly recommended.

Order

We recommend acquiring them while fighting each monster as a slayer task, this will require you to turn OFF auto-slayer, and will encourage semi-frequent check-ins. Doing these on task will increase your damage dealt to them from various buffs while also allowing you to complete Master Slayer tasks for the Master Slayer items, if you do not already have them. This will make the order you obtain the final weapons in effectively random, but if you don't want to deal with the hassle of rerolling, or simply want to do them in a specific order, we recommend the following:

Additionally, you should also acquire the pet
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Otto whilst doing this grind, if you do not, continue farming whichever mob you kill the fastest on or off task until you get it.

Requirements

There are very few hard requirements beyond the ability to survive and the entry requirement of
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Slayer Level 90, but there are several skills and items that will make this grind significantly easier, and we would be remiss to not mention them
Suggestion Benefit
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Level 90 -
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Level 95 		Less need for DR
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Level 99 		Pillar of Combat
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Level 90 		Dragon Synergies
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
 Level 95 		For Battleheart
Slayer Helmet (Elite)
Slayer Platebody (Elite) 		15% Flat Slayer Area Effect Negation

Tidal Edge

We use Standard Magic as Ancient Magicks have a slower kill rate and higher rune cost.

Use of Combination Runes is highly recommended for all methods.

If Atlas of Discovery Expansion is owned, Ring of Malice (m) increases the Kills and Tidal Edge Fragment per hour.

Equipment

There are 2 Sets for this. Set 1 (left side) requires:

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
     Level 91     when all the provided
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Agility     obstacles are active.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
     Level 101     without any Agility

Set 2 (right side) requires:

  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
     Level 79     when all the provided
    Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Agility     obstacles are active.
  • Error creating thumbnail: File missing
     Level 89     without any Agility

Mixing and matching between the 2 sets is highly discouraged. Please use the separate sets as they are.

With Cloudburst Staff, use
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Water Surge or
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Water Wave (reduced rune cost).
With Ocean Song, Powered Red Crystal, Trickery Mirror, or Fire Imbued Wand, use
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fire Surge.

You need to use Melee for this grind, it is highly recommended that you use an Tidal Edge, Infernal Claw or Ultima Godsword to complete this.
