Location and How to Get There

Edimmu are slayer monsters found within the Edimmu dungeon, which is located in the Meilyr district of Prifddnas and requires 115 dungeoneering to be assessed. The best way to get there would be the dgcape teleport straight to the dungeon, or by teleporting to the Meilyr disctict via a teleport seed.

General strategy

Despite looking large, Edimmus are 1x1, with Elites being 2x2. This makes it viable to use strategies which involve stacking them up and then AoEing them down.

⬥ For both active and AFK methods, position your cannon as shown below.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• If AFKing, stand in the position as shown below.

Method: Jacquelyn tasks

If going for pet, as each slayer task forces an Elite spawn, a good way to farm Elites is via the slayer master Jacquelyn. This is done by killing Edimmu during a Zombie or Ghost task which forces an Elite spawn every 15 kills with slayer introspection.

Method: Active Ranged range

The active strategy for Edimmu involves aggroing as many as possible, luring them to a barrier and then chinning them down. This method also works with melee if using a noxscythe, but range has a much easier experience. Addtionally, less damage is taken using ranged as Edimmus primarily attack with magic.

⬥ Generally this method is only recommended for relatively ungeared players, as players with good magic equipment can AFK the task obtaining a slightly lower kph.

⬥ The kph of killing Edimmu actively is highly limited by their slow spawn timers.

Preset range

Preset Suggestion & Breakdown

Strategy range

⬥ When a bunch of Edimmu are aggro'd onto you, step behind the barrier and wait for the Edimmu to fill in the space immediately before the barrier.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• When Edimmus are in position, immediately enter to avoid losing Edimmu aggression and target the center Edimmu.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Rough ability priority with mechchin: deadshotigneous > rapid > snap > shadowtend

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• It is easier to target the normal Edimmu around the Elite and chin them down together.

⬥ A Yak can be a viable familiar for this task.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Store some food it in case you mess up Elite Edimmu spawns.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Use it to store rare drop table drops, sharks, or unstackable drops (e.g. crystal seeds).

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Winter Storage yakscroll can be used to bank untradeable drops like attuned crystal weapon/armour seeds or bloodnecklaceshard

⬥ While waiting for Edimmu to respawn, you can run around to aggro and kill stray Edimmu not tagged by the cannon.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• ricocaroming or aggression are good options for mass-aggroing.

⬥ If done right, you will be able to kill at least 585 per hour.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• This will vary a little depending on the number of Elite spawns.

grico is not needed for the method to work well.

Method: AFK Magic magic

Edimmu are best AFK'd using a staff with caroming noxstaff caroming4 along with gchain gchain. The gear required strongly depends on the player's effort in dealing with Elite Edimmu. Even though Edimmu themselves do not deal much damage and can be out healed with mage's AoE easily, Elites pose a huge problem if trying to AFK with subpar gear and will require the player to click back and take measures to kill the Elite (e.g. laying dommine, eating food).

Strategy magic

⬥ You can move in a way similar to this clip to repair your cannon when needed:

⬥ Although this method should work semi-consistently completely AFK, it is highly recommended to set an Alt1 alert for Elite slayer monster spawns so that Elite Edimmus won't cause problems even in the event of bad RNG.

⬥ This setup achieves around 530 kph.

Method: AFK Necro necromancy

Strategy necromancy

⬥ Although this method can consistently work completely AFK, the only KO potential is with Elite Edimmu so it is recommended to set up an alt1 alert to ensure safety.

⬥ This setup achieves around 480-530kph.

⬥ Video example uses Mahj aura + scarab for 528kph, but penance aura + blood reaver familiar can also reach 480-520kph if mahj is on CD.
