Introduction
Ancient Claw is a melee weapon that does not require late-basegame content to obtain. It is also a component for
Infernal Claw.
The Ancient Claw is assembled from the fragments that drop only from
Pegasus. On average, 3,333
Pegasi kills are required in order to obtain enough fragments.
The question is when to farm it and what combat style is the best for that. The main point of contention is whether to farm it before or after the Volcanic Cave, as this dungeon is farmed with a
Melee build and is vital for idling the
Air God Dungeon.
To answer these questions, the following builds will be considered:
Wave magic,
Rapier melee,
Slicing Winds magic,
Glacia magic.
These builds were chosen to show the changes that the various drops bring into farming Pegasus. Ranged builds were not considered because the
Pegasus is
Melee and has the highest evasion against Ranged in addition to the Combat Triangle.
Builds
Each build assumes the following:
- The ring slot is always occupied with
Magical Ring.
Auto Eat - Tier III is used.
Whale (Perfect) is used as the Food of choice because it is considered a middle ground between starting out and being fully levelled in
Firemaking,
Fishing,
Farming, and
Cooking.
- The character is on the
Hardcore game mode with all Combat skills at level 75. This means all builds presented here are suitable regardless of the game mode being played.
Skill levels are given so that these simulations may be replicated using the Combat Simulator add-in.

Spell: Slicing Winds

Prayers: Mystic Might and
Mystic Mastery
Point of Interest: The Academia Arcanum
Reaching at least 20,000 accuracy is key for this build, as this prevents Slicing Winds from missing. Therefore, while the build only requires a minimum of
Level 72, and at most
Level 93 or multiple accuracy bonuses from sources such as:
Worth noting that using a Mystic Air Staff will drastically reduce the amount of runes spent - especially while using Surge Auroras. The staff will be slower, and will require more Food due to the player taking a greater number of hits.
Warning: Swapping Miolite Shield for
Book of Eli will not significantly reduce kill times, while also forcing you to spend more runes and therefore more time Runecrafting.
The grind time with this build is 11 hours. Slayer equipment has no impact on the clear speed in this case.

The grind time with this build is 5.5 hours.
However, this build implies that the Air God Dungeon would need to be cleared with
Sunset Rapier.
