OSRS Money Making 2025: Safe Guide to Killing Kree’arra for Profits

OSRS Money Making 2025: Safe Guide to Killing Kree’arra for Profits

Yo, what’s good, scapers? If you’re itching to stack some fat piles of GP in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) this 2025, then let me tell you about farming Kree’arra, that Armadyl bird boss in the God Wars Dungeon. I’ve sunk way too many hours into this game, and Kree’s one of my go-to’s for making bank. Why? His drops, like the Armadyl Armor and Armadyl Hilt, can net you millions on the Grand Exchange. Ready to get rich? Let’s break it down, step-by-step, like I’m chatting with you at the GE.

Why Pick Kree’arra for Cash?

Kree’arra’s a gold mine if you got the skills and gear. His loot table’s loaded with high-value stuff, and with a solid setup, you can pull in 6-7M GP an hour, maybe even more if you’re a pro. So, what makes him so juicy?

  • Big-Ticket Drops: Armadyl Chestplate, Chainskirt, Helmet, and Hilt are worth millions. Drop rates? Around 1/128 for any piece, not too shabby.
  • Steady Loot: Even without rares, you’re grabbing runes, potions, and alchables that add up quick.
  • Slayer Bonus: Kree and his goons count as Aviansies. Got a Slayer task? Pop on a Slayer Helmet (i) for extra damage.
  • Solo or Squad: Go solo for all the loot or bring a couple buddies to split the spoils.

Sound like your kinda grind? Bet it does. But hold up, you need the right prep before you face this feathered menace.

What You Need to Take on Kree’arra

Kree’arra ain’t no goblin in Lumbridge. You need decent stats, some quest unlocks, and gear that doesn’t suck. Here’s the rundown:

Stats

  • Ranged: 80+ is good, 90+ is better for faster kills.
  • Magic: 70+ for Blood Barrage and teleports.
  • Prayer: 70+ for Piety and Protect from Missiles, no question.
  • Hitpoints: 75+ to not get smoked by stray hits.
  • Slayer: 70+ if you want those sweet Aviansie tasks.

Quests and Gear

Gear Recommendations

Your gear’s gotta be on point to survive Kree’s attacks and kill him fast. Check out this table for setups based on your bank size:

Gear Slot Budget Setup Mid-Tier Setup Max Setup
Weapon Armadyl Crossbow, Diamond Bolts (e) Dragon Hunter Crossbow, Diamond Bolts (e) Tumeken’s Shadow or Twisted Bow
Armor Black D’hide, God D’hide Boots Armadyl Armor, Pegasian Boots Elite Void, Crystal Armor, Venator Ring
Amulet Amulet of Glory Amulet of Fury Amulet of Torture
Cape Ava’s Accumulator Ava’s Assembler Ava’s Assembler
Shield Book of War Elysian Spirit Shield Eldritch Nightmare Staff (for Blood Barrage)

Quick Tip: If you’re broke, stack Ranged Defence to tank hits. Got cash? Tumeken’s Shadow slaps hard with its Magic damage boost.

Getting to Kree’arra’s Lair

Kree’arra hangs out in Armadyl’s Eyrie in the God Wars Dungeon. Here’s how you roll up:

  1. Trollheim Teleport: Spell or tablet, your choice.
  2. Find the Dungeon: Head to the Armadyl section. You’ll need that mithril grapple and crossbow with 70 Ranged to cross a gap.
  3. Kill Count or Key: Normally, you need 40 Armadyl kills to enter. But Ecumenical Keys let you skip that nonsense. Grab 1-3 keys by killing other dungeon mobs.
  4. Boss Room: Park yourself in a corner to dodge Kree’s knockback attacks.

Question: Why bother with keys? Answer: Saves you like 10 minutes of grinding kill count. Time is GP, my friend.

Kree’arra’s Attacks and How to Not Die

Kree’arra’s a flying menace, so forget Melee unless you’re memeing with a salamander. His attacks hit like a truck:

  • Ranged (Grey Tornado): Smacks up to 71 damage, hits everyone. Protect from Missiles is your lifeline.
  • Magic (Blue Tornado): Up to 21 damage, checks your Ranged Defence.
  • Melee: Hits 26 if you’re dumb enough to stand close. Don’t.

His bodyguards Flight Kilisa (Melee), Wingman Skree (Magic), and Flockleader Geerin (Ranged) each bring their own pain. Kilisa’s slash attacks are the worst since they cut through Ranged armor like butter.

Pro Move: Kill Kree first, then take out Kilisa, Geerin, and Skree in that order. Use Blood Barrage on the minions to heal up without chugging food.

Solo Strategy for Safe Kills

Soloing’s the way to keep all the loot, but it takes some finesse. Here’s how I do it:

  1. Enter and Chill: Use an Ecumenical Key, get in the room, and hug a corner to avoid getting yeeted by knockback.
  2. Prayers On: Flick Protect from Missiles and Rigour (or Eagle Eye if you’re not 99 Prayer yet).
  3. Blast Kree: Use your main weapon Tumeken’s Shadow or Dragon Hunter Crossbow with Diamond Bolts (e) works great.
  4. Walk Under Trick: After each attack, step under Kree to dodge his hits while your weapon recharges. Takes practice, but it’s a lifesaver.
  5. Minion Cleanup: Once Kree’s down, switch to Blood Barrage with an Eldritch Nightmare Staff. Lure Kilisa and Geerin together, freeze ‘em with Ice Barrage, and Blood Barrage to heal up.
  6. Loot and Loop: Use Bones to Peaches tablets to turn bones into peaches (8 HP each). Bank with Winter Storage or Magic Notepaper for un-noted stuff like potions.

How many kills you getting? With max gear, I hit 25-45 kills an hour. Budget setups might get you closer to 20.

Inventory Setup

Your inventory’s gotta keep you alive and killing. Here’s what I bring:

  • 4-6 Prayer Potions: Keep those prayers up.
  • 2-3 Super Restores: Prayer and stat boosts in a pinch.
  • 6-8 Saradomin Brews: Heals a ton without tanking your stats too hard.
  • Some Food: Sharks or Manta Rays for emergencies.
  • Bones to Peaches Tablets: Free healing from bones.
  • Ecumenical Keys (1-3): Skip the kill count grind.
  • Trollheim Teleport: Get back to the bank quick.
  • Runes for Blood/Ice Barrage: For healing and crowd control.

Question: Can you ditch food? Answer: Yup, Blood Barrage and Bones to Peaches can keep you going forever, but I still pack a few sharks just in case.

How Much GP You Making?

Here’s the juicy part how much gold you pulling? Based on 2025 GE prices, check this out:

Item Drop Rate GE Price (Approx) Avg Profit per Kill
Armadyl Chestplate 1/384 40M 104K
Armadyl Chainskirt 1/384 35M 91K
Armadyl Helmet 1/384 10M 26K
Armadyl Hilt 1/512 50M 98K
Godsword Shard 1/256 150K 0.6K
Common Drops (Runes, Pots) Common 50-100K 50-100K
  • Avg Profit per Kill: ~250-300K with commons.
  • Hourly Profit (25 kills/hour): ~6.2-7.5M GP.
  • Hourly Profit (45 kills/hour): ~11.2-13.5M GP with max gear.

Heads Up: Prices change, and rare drops are RNG. Check the Grand Exchange before you plan your grind.

Pro Tips to Max Your GP

Wanna squeeze out every last coin? Try these:

  • Slayer Task FTW: Aviansie task + Slayer Helmet (i) = 15% more damage and accuracy. Yes, please.
  • Lightbearer Ring: Cuts the cooldown on Eldritch Nightmare Staff’s spec, so you can Blood Barrage more.
  • Bowfa + Crystal Armor: No Tumeken’s? This combo’s a beast for Magic damage.
  • Master Walk Under: Dodging hits means longer trips, more kills, more GP.
  • Bank Smart: Use Winter Storage or Magic Notepaper to save time banking potions.

Question: Solo or team? Answer: Solo’s best for max loot, but a 2-3 man team can speed things up if you’re still learning.

Risks and How to Stay Safe

Kree’s safer than Wilderness bosses, but you can still mess it up:

  • Big Hits: His Ranged attack can hit 71 if your prayer drops. Fix: Watch your prayer points like a hawk and sip Super Restores.
  • Minion Pain: Kilisa’s Melee hits hard through Ranged gear. Fix: Kill him first after Kree.
  • Dry Streaks: RNG can leave you with no uniques for hours. Fix: Common drops still pay, so keep grinding.

Is Kree’arra Worth It in 2025?

Hell yeah! Kree’arra’s still a top money-maker in 2025. Compared to Vorkath (4-5M GP/hour) or Zulrah (4-6M GP/hour), Kree’s 6-13M GP/hour potential is nuts, especially with high-end gear. But it’s not easy takes skill and some investment.

Last Tip: If you’re new to bossing, cut your teeth on Vorkath or Zulrah first. Kree’s multi-style attacks and knockback can be a lot.

Wrap-Up

Killing Kree’arra in 2025 is one of the best ways to make bank in OSRS. With the right gear, a bit of practice, and some RNG luck, you’ll be swimming in GP. Grab your Tumeken’s Shadow, stock those Ecumenical Keys, and hit the God Wars Dungeon. Those Armadyl drops ain’t gonna farm themselves! Got questions? Let me know in the comments, and I’ll hook you up. Happy grinding, scapers!
