Creating a Venom Alt in Old School RuneScape

Hey, OSRS players! Want to make some serious GP while chilling on an alt account? Venom alts are a slick way to farm venom sacks in Old School RuneScape, and as a longtime player, I’ve got the scoop on setting one up. It’s a fun side hustle, but it takes some setup. Ready to get started? Let’s dive in!
A venom alt is a secondary account built to kill monsters like Zulrah or Vorkath for their venom-based drops, like Zulrah’s scales or venom sacks. These sell for bank on the Grand Exchange. Ever tried juggling two accounts? It’s a game-changer!
My First Venom Alt
When I first made a venom alt, I was nervous about the grind. But seeing those venom sacks stack up made it worth it. The extra cash funded my main’s BiS gear!
Requirements for a Venom Alt
You’ll need a few things to make your alt effective:
-
Stats: Aim for 70+ Ranged and Magic, plus 43 Prayer for protection.
-
Quests: Complete Regicide for Zulrah or Dragon Slayer II for Vorkath.
-
Gear: Budget gear like Rune crossbow or Trident of the Seas works fine.
My Gear Choice
I started with a basic Trident and Mystic robes. It wasn’t fancy, but it got the job done. What gear do you use for bossing?
How to Set Up Your Alt
Here’s the step-by-step:
-
Complete Quests: Knock out Regicide or Dragon Slayer II for boss access.
-
Gear Up: Grab affordable gear and stock up on food/potions.
-
Learn the Boss: Practice Zulrah’s rotations or Vorkath’s attacks.
My Zulrah Story
My first Zulrah kill took forever—I kept forgetting the rotation! But after a few tries, I got the hang of it. Ever wiped at Zulrah?
Tips for Success
-
Use Two Clients: Run your main and alt side-by-side with different RuneLite profiles.
-
Practice Rotations: Zulrah’s patterns are tricky but learnable.
-
Bank Profits: Sell venom sacks for 2k-3k each. Chaotic!
Common Mistake
I once forgot to restock food and died mid-Zulrah fight. Don’t skimp on supplies! What’s your worst bossing blunder?
Final Thoughts
Setting up a venom alt in OSRS is a grind, but the GP is sweet. With some practice and budget gear, you’ll be raking in venom sacks in no time. I love the extra cash flow for my main account. So, what’s stopping you from starting your venom alt today?
