The DR requirement for {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} is 47%. Note that because {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} takes so long to farm compared to the other monsters, any small efficiency is highly beneficial. This is why pets that offer loot doubling or rune saving are highly recommended. | The DR requirement for {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} is 47%.

Because the vast majority of the damage done is due to the special attack of {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}}, which is unaffected by damage increases and has 100% accuracy, we opt to sacrifice the {{ItemIcon|Warlock Ring}} in favour of {{ItemIcon|Hunter's Ring}}.

The dps downgrade is minimal (less than 0.5% fewer kills/hr) but the additional slayer coins help pay for the prayer points used and can be put towards remaining master slayer purchases. | ||
Additionally, this is one of the few (perhaps only) situations where a {{ItemIcon|Warlock Amulet}} is useful. For the same reason as above, {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs}} does not contribute very much to our DPS, but {{ItemIcon|Warlock Amulet}} saves around 50 {{ItemIcon|Crab}}/hr. Strictly speaking the {{ItemIcon|Crab}} end up being worth more than the fraction of a kill in terms of time-to-obtain efficiency, but {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs}} is still fine to use if one prefers to complete the {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} slightly faster in exchange for about 20% more food usage. | |||
