The Toxic blowpipe is a two-handed dart weapon that you can use if you have 75 Ranged. You can make OSRS Toxic blowpipe by using a chisel on a tanzanite fang, but you need at least 53 Fletching to be able to make it. The OSRS Toxic blowpipe has a 25% chance of inflicting venom on the opponent.
The OSRS blowpipe can inflict even more damage if it’s combined with a serpentine helm. If your OSRS blowpipe is not protected before you die, all scale and dart charges will appear on the floor with the OSRS blowpipe.
Make sure that your OSRS blowpipe IS protected before death, that way all your scale and dart charges will be maintained when you respawn. OSRS Toxic blowpipe is a very effective weapon for ranging in the wilderness as the weapon and the ammo is contained in one high-value item slot.
Also, it is very effective at Revenant Caves for those who are not skulled, another interesting thing about OSRS blowpipe is that the attack speed of this weapon is 3.
OSRS Toxic Blowpipe Special Attack
The Toxic blowpipe has a special attack called Toxic Siphon, this attack increases damage to the opponents by 50%, and heals the user by half of the damage that it gives. But this will consume 50% of the player’s special attack energy.
This is similar to the Saradomin godsword special attack, it will heal the player based on what they would have hit and if the target dies from the special attack. For example, if the hit was calculated to give 20 damage and the target only has 5 Hitpoints, that means it will heal the player by 10 Hitpoints.
It also heals based on the damage dealt before calculating damage lowering for certain monsters, such as Vorkath during its acid phase or kurasks that have 100% damage resistance to most weaponry.
