Hello everyone, my name is Kai, and welcome to my quick and easy Caves Queen guide. This guide will help you effectively take down the Caves Queen and provide methods to minimize damage taken during the fight. Let's dive straight into the details!

Quest Requirements

Before you embark on your Caves Queen (KQ) adventure, you need to complete several quests:

1.Fairy Tale Part II: This quest grants access to Fairy Rings, which are crucial for teleporting.

2.Beneath Cursed Sands: Required to use the Caris Partisan.

3.A Kingdom Divided: Necessary to use the Arko Spellbook for casting Trolls.

Minimum Stats

To tackle the Caves Queen efficiently, ensure you have the following minimum stats:

80 Strength, Defense, and Attack: Essential for wielding the Caris Partisan effectively.

75 Ranged: Needed to use the blowpipe.

76 Magic: Grants access to Resurrection spells.

70 Prayer: Required to use Protect from Missiles (Py) or 74 Prayer for using Rigour if unlocked.

Diary and Gear Recommendations

Hard Desert Diary: Completing this diary provides a permanent rope in the Calphite layer, saving you the trouble of carrying two ropes every time.

Elite Desert Diary: Unlocks a shortcut that significantly reduces your running time through the cave.

Gear Setup:

Slayer Helmet: Being on a Slayer task gives you a 15% accuracy boost against the KQ.

Melee Gear: Use your best melee setup. A Dragon Warhammer is particularly effective as it lowers the KQ’s defense.

Caris Partisan: Provides a 33% bonus damage against all Calphites. The upgraded version, the Caris Partisan of Breaching, adds a 33% accuracy bonus for ranged attacks.

Blowpipe: For ranged attacks, equip your best range gear and a blowpipe with Rune darts.

Ring of Suffering (i): Offers extra defense and recoil damage. Use any ring you have available.

Inventory Setup: Include:

Stamina Potion (if you don’t have the shortcut unlocked)

Prayer Potion

Ranging Potion

Super Combat Potion

Antidote Plus+

Sharks or the highest healing food you have

Book of the Dead (for summoning Trolls)

Divine or Normal Rune Pouch with Fire, Blood, and Cosmic runes

Crafting Cape (for teleporting to a bank)

House Teleport (for stat replenishment and access to Fairy Rings)

Kill Method: Step-by-Step

Teleport to Fairy Ring: Use the Fairy Ring to get close to the KQ layer. If you have the Elite Diary completed, you can teleport directly. Otherwise, run through the cave.

1.Preparation:

Drink your Stamina Potion if needed.

Use your Super Combat Potion, Prayer Potion, and Ranging Potion.

Equip Magic Protection Prayer (Py) and be ready to cast Trolls.

2.First Phase (Melee Attack):

Cast Trolls and double-spec the KQ with your Dragon Warhammer.

Switch to the Caris Partisan and start dealing damage.

If you’re taking too much damage, position yourself under the KQ by holding Shift to avoid her attacks. Heal up and resume your attack.

3.Second Phase (Ranged Attack):

Switch to your ranged gear.

Reapply your Ranging Potion and activate Rigour if available.

Continue attacking while summoning Trolls as needed.

Position yourself under the KQ if you’re taking too much damage. Heal up and continue DPSing.

4.Post-Kill:

Teleport back to the bank to deposit your loot.

Use your House Teleport to restore your stats and teleport back to the Fairy Ring.

Repeat the process for additional kills.

Zero-Damage Method

To minimize damage, follow these steps:

1.Gear Setup: Equip your Caris Partisan and best melee gear. Bring the same potions and food as before.

2.Combat:

Use the same preparation steps as mentioned above.

During the fight, focus on "dancing" with the KQ by moving under her to avoid damage. This technique requires constant movement and precise timing.

For the ranged phase, utilize the same approach by positioning yourself under the KQ and attacking her.

3.Efficiency:

The zero-damage method may take slightly longer but is effective for conserving supplies. Expect kill times of around 3 to 4 minutes.

That wraps up the guide on killing the Caves Queen in OSRS. By following these strategies, you can effectively slay the KQ with minimal damage taken. If this guide helped you, please let me know in the comments below. Have a fantastic day, and see you in the next guide!
