Cave Horrors are combat level 80, and they have 55 hitpoints. These monsters have magic-based melee as their attack style and are very aggressive, and their max hit attack is 9.

You will need level 58 Slayer to damage them. You will also have to complete the Fever Quest beforehand. They give 55 Slayer XP per kill, and they are not hard at all to kill as long as you go with the right armor setup. 

Cave Horrors can only be found in Mos Le’Harmless Caves.

Cave Horror Location

The first thing you need to know before heading to the Mos Le’Harmless Cave, where Cave Horrors is located, is that you must bring a light-source with you. These are the best options:

  • The Fire of Eternal Light
  • Bullseye lantern
  • Kandarin headgear
  • Firemaking skill cape
  • Oil lantern, torch, or candle

How to Get There

The fastest option is using a Mos Le’Harmless teleport scroll, which you can buy from the Grand Exchange.

Your next best option is using the Trouble Brewing minigame teleport after you have completed the Cabin Fever quest (you will also need level 40 cooking).

The third option would be using a charter ship to get yourself to Mos Le’Harmless after the Cabin Fever quest. The cheapest charter ship can be found on the southern dock of Port Sarim. 

Finally, you can go to Port Phasmatys and talk to Bill Teach to take you to the cave. You will find him on a ship on the east end of the pier. 

If you are safe-spotting Cave Horrors, it is recommended to use the room right by the entrance of the cave. Before entering, though, you must activate your quick prayers. Choose a spot to drop your cannon and start firing. Go ahead and drink your stab boosting potion, turn on your auto-retaliate, and keep an eye on your health and prayer points.

If you need to leave the safe-spot to pick up the loot, you can use the telegrab spell to get it or activate your protection from the melee.
