Getting Free Herblore XP From Unwanted Herbs Chaos Druids (Level 13)

In my general section on getting herbs via combat, I introduced you to the five best monsters for getting herbs, which I call the primary herb droppers: chaos druids, cave crawlers, banshees, flesh crawlers and aberrant spectres. Primary herb droppers are all capable of providing you with 100 or more herbs per hour, and most will also give other great drops as well, ranging from runes to noted ores to pure essence to valuable mystic robe pieces.

If you want to get your own herbs, these are the monsters you’ll spend most of your time fighting, so I thought it would be useful if I provided more detail on how best to fight them. In this section I’ll give you my detailed recommendations on how to fight all five of these monsters with maximum efficiency. This includes providing detailed specifications on each, telling you the best spots to fight them, showing you the right equipment and supplies to use, outlining the drops you should expect, and giving you additional tips for success.

Note that my methods focus on melee, because this is the fastest way of killing monsters; our goal here is getting lots of herbs, and more kills means more herbs. You can certainly choose to range or mage these monsters instead, if you wish, though melee is strongly recommended for aberrant spectres.
