OSRS Chinning Guide MM2 - Fastest Ranged XP

Chinning in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) is the ultimate method for training Ranged, offering unmatched experience rates of up to 800K XP per hour. This guide focuses on chinning in the Monkey Madness II (MM2) tunnels, specifically targeting maniacal monkeys in Kruk’s Dungeon. Whether you’re aiming for 99 Ranged or just want to level up fast, this comprehensive guide covers everything you need to know, from requirements to gear, methods, and tips for maximizing efficiency.

Chinning in MM2’s Kruk’s Dungeon is the gold standard for Ranged training due to its high XP rates and multi-combat environment. Maniacal monkeys have low defense, making them perfect targets for chinchompas, which deal area-of-effect damage. Compared to MM1’s skeletal monkeys, MM2 chinning offers superior XP rates (350K–800K vs. 150K–400K) and better prayer sustainability thanks to frequent prayer potion drops. However, it’s costly, so understanding the setup and strategies is key to making it worthwhile.

Benefits of MM2 Chinning

Insane XP Rates: Up to 800K Ranged XP per hour with optimal setups.
Prayer Sustainability: Maniacal monkeys drop 1-dose prayer potions, reducing prayer potion costs.
Multi-Skill Training: Gain Hitpoints and Prayer XP alongside Ranged.
Scalable Efficiency: Options for high-intensity or semi-AFK methods.

Requirements for MM2 Chinning

Before you can start chinning in MM2, you’ll need to meet specific quest, skill, and item requirements. Partial completion of Monkey Madness II is mandatory to access Kruk’s Dungeon, and higher Ranged levels improve efficiency.

Quest Requirements

Partial Completion of Monkey Madness II: Reach Kruk’s Dungeon (Chapter II).
Recommended: Full completion of MM2 for easier access via gnome glider.
Prerequisites for MM2: Monkey Madness I, The Grand Tree, Tree Gnome Village, and Enlightenment (partially).

Skill Requirements

Ranged: Minimum 45 (recommended 70+ for efficiency).
Prayer: 43 for Protect from Melee (recommended 70+ for Rigour).
Hunter: 53+ for grey chinchompas, 63+ for red, 73+ for black (optional if buying from GE).

Item Requirements

You’ll need chinchompas and specific gear to chin effectively. Here’s a quick list:

Chinchompas: Grey (45 Ranged), Red (55 Ranged), or Black (65 Ranged).
Bonecrusher Necklace: Combines Bonecrusher, Dragonbone Necklace, and Hydra Tail for prayer restoration.
Prayer Potions: Backup for prayer maintenance.
Ranging Potions: Boost Ranged accuracy and damage.

Best Gear and Inventory Setup

Your gear and inventory setup are critical for maximizing XP rates and minimizing costs. Since maniacal monkeys have low defense, prioritize prayer bonus over Ranged accuracy to reduce prayer potion usage. Void Knight equipment is often preferred for its damage boost.

Recommended Gear

Slot	Item	Alternative
Head	Void Ranger Helm	Armadyl Helmet
Neck	Bonecrusher Necklace	Necklace of Anguish
Body	Elite Void Top	Armadyl Chestplate
Legs	Elite Void Robe	Armadyl Chainskirt
Weapon	Black Chinchompas	Red Chinchompas
Cape	Ava’s Accumulator	Max Cape
Gloves	Void Knight Gloves	Barrows Gloves
Boots	Pegasian Boots	Ranger Boots
Ring	Archers Ring (i)	Ring of Suffering (i)

Inventory Setup

4–8 Prayer Potions: Adjust based on prayer bonus and Bonecrusher Necklace usage.
2–4 Ranging Potions: Maintain Ranged boost.
Teleportation Items: Ape Atoll teleport or house teleport for banking.
Filler: High-alch runes or food for emergencies.
Optional: Imp-in-a-box (Hunter 71+) to bank prayer potions for cost recovery.

Gear Tips

Void vs. Armadyl: Void’s 10% damage boost outperforms Armadyl’s accuracy for maniacal monkeys due to their low defense.
Bonecrusher Necklace: Restores prayer points when monkeys die, significantly reducing potion usage.
Ava’s Accumulator: Does not recover chinchompas but prevents ammo loss for other ranged training.

Chinning Methods and Strategies

Chinning in MM2 can be tailored to your playstyle, from high-intensity methods for maximum XP to semi-AFK approaches for convenience. The key is stacking maniacal monkeys to hit multiple targets (up to 11) with each chinchompa.

Accessing Kruk’s Dungeon

To reach the chinning spot:

Use the gnome glider to Ape Atoll (post-MM2) or Ape Atoll teleport (standard/Arceuus spellbook).
Head to the north-western part of the island to enter Kruk’s Dungeon.
Navigate to the maniacal monkey area (yellow square on maps for re-aggro spot).
If pre-MM2 completion, wear a monkey greegree to avoid aggressive monsters.

Chinning Methods

There are three main chinning methods, each with different intensity and XP rates:

Low-Intensity (AFK): Use auto-retaliate and periodically run to the yellow square to re-aggro monkeys. Yields 350K–500K XP/hour.
Medium-Intensity: After each attack, click a 3×3 clump of monkeys to maintain stacks. Yields 500K–650K XP/hour.
High-Intensity (2-Tile Method): Click back and forth between two tiles after each attack to tightly stack monkeys. Yields 650K–800K XP/hour.

Maximizing Efficiency

Use Black Chinchompas: They offer +80 Ranged attack and +30 strength, significantly boosting XP rates over red (+50, +15) or grey (+45, +0).
Medium Fuse: Set attack style to Medium Fuse for optimal attack speed (Rapid equivalent).
Prayer Management: Use Protect from Melee and Rigour (if available) to maximize damage and sustainability.
Dancing Accounts: Use alt accounts to auto-stack monkeys for fully AFK high-intensity chinning (requires coordination).

Cost vs. XP Analysis

Chinning is expensive, with costs ranging from 5M to 10M GP per hour depending on chinchompas used. However, the XP gains justify the investment for many players. Below is a breakdown of costs and XP rates based on Ranged level and chinchompa type.

Cost and XP Table

Chinchompa	Ranged Level	XP/Hour	Cost/Hour (GP)	GP/XP
Grey	45–55	350K–450K	~3M	6.7–8.6
Red	55–65	450K–650K	~5M	7.7–11.1
Black	65–99	650K–800K	~7M	8.8–10.8

Cost-Saving Tips

Bank Prayer Potions: Use Imp-in-a-box to bank 4-dose prayer potions dropped by monkeys, offsetting costs.
Start at Higher Levels: Chinning at 70+ Ranged reduces chinchompa waste due to higher accuracy.
High-Alch Drops: Alch rune scimitars dropped by monkeys for extra GP.
