Greater Skeletal Thrall is a powerful non-player character (NPC) found in the world of Gielinor, typically summoned by players who possess the ability to cast Summoning spells. This undead warrior is one of the advanced versions of skeletal thralls, showcasing enhanced combat capabilities, resilience, and unique interactions within the game.
Combat Level: 118
Hitpoints: 180
Attack Styles: The Greater Skeletal Thrall primarily employs melee attacks. It is capable of dealing significant damage to enemies using its high attack bonuses.
Summoning Requirements: Players need to have completed the Death’s Door quest and must possess level 92 Summoning to effectively summon a Greater Skeletal Thrall. Additionally, summoners must use one of the correct bones in conjunction with the special thrall summoning scroll to bring the skeletal warrior into existence.
Duration: The Greater Skeletal Thrall lasts for a total of 60 minutes in combat before it disappears. However, the duration can be affected by the summoner’s Summoning level and relevant perks.
Special Abilities: Greater Skeletal Thralls have unique combat mechanics that allow them to use special attacks against opponents, with a chance to drain the target’s stats temporarily, mimicking the effects of the Curse spells. This makes them particularly useful for players looking to weaken formidable foes.
Damage Output: This thrall can inflict damage ranging from 12-30+, depending on the strength of the summoner and the target’s defenses. Thanks to its robust combat stats, it can effectively contribute to both training and boss fights, drawing attention away from the player.
Weakness: While significantly stronger than most other thralls, the Greater Skeletal Thrall is still susceptible to certain anti-undead attacks, particularly those employed by players using the Holy Water or specialized prayers.
Loot Dropped: Upon being defeated (though rare, if a player’s thrall happens to be attacked and killed), players may receive bones along with a handful of Summoning experience, further contributing to their summoning skills.
Behavior: Greater Skeletal Thralls act with a moderate level of intelligence, following commands issued by their summoners. Players can command them to retreat, attack specific enemies, or defend themselves during battle scenarios.
Experience: Summoning a Greater Skeletal Thrall provides players with a substantial experience boost in Summoning, assisting greatly in leveling up their skills.
Remember, the Greater Skeletal Thrall represents the pinnacle of skeletal summons available in OSRS, offering an exceptional blend of strategy, utility, and raw power for those daring enough to master the art of Summoning.
