The most important skills are {{Skill|Hitpoints|99}} and {{Skill|Slayer|99}}, as HP is needed to meet the DR thresholds and the slayer cape perk is very beneficial. Bare minimum stats are {{Skill|Attack|80}} to equip {{ItemIcon|Darksteel Dagger}}, around {{Skill|Strength|80}}, {{Skill|Defence|85}} for Ragnar/Terran God Armour, {{Skill|Prayer|66}} for Chivalry, {{Skill|Ranged|90}} and {{Skill|Magic|90}} for God Armours, {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} and {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}}. It is also assumed that {{PetIcon|Finn, the Cat}} and {{PetIcon|Leonardo}} are owned. The reason why the offensive requirements are relatively low is that farming T90s takes a '''very''' long time on a CO account (about 3 weeks of continuous play all up), so a lot of experience will be gained during this section anyway. For example, by the time the first T90, {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}}, is completed the player will have earned about 4m prayer and 9.5m melee exp. Therefore it is not essential to have maxed offensive stats, as those can be effectively trained along the way. 99 slayer however is very important for the cape perk. It is still possible to do without the cape, but a lot of food will be wasted in compensation and a lot fewer kills/hr on {{MonsterIcon|Rokken}} if the player's attack speed is 2.2 or above. A {{ItemIcon|Hunter's Ring}} is highly recommended in this case for full area effect negation. | The most important skills are {{Skill|Hitpoints|99}} and {{Skill|Slayer|99}}, as HP is needed to meet the DR thresholds and the slayer cape perk is very beneficial.

You must complete {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} to make use of the passive slot for this section. The food and dps loss from not having this slot is simply not worth it. You will complete 40 master slayer tasks while farming T90s and {{ZoneIcon|Dark Waters}} enemies are easier than {{ZoneIcon|Perilous Peaks}} enemies once the DR threshold from gear has been met.

The recommended order for farming T90s is: {{MonsterIcon|Rokken}} (ranged) → {{MonsterIcon|Ku-tul}} (magic) → {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} (melee). Both {{MonsterIcon|Rokken}} and {{MonsterIcon|Ku-tul}} can be completed at roughly the same kills/hr without any T90 items, but {{ItemIcon|Darksteel Dagger}} + {{ItemIcon|Elder Crown}} combo will result in about 2.5x less food usage on {{MonsterIcon|Rokken}}, as well as {{ItemIcon|Shockwave}} having more immediate value than {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} which requires a lot of farming to make use of. {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} is by far the most difficult monster due to the scarce nature of runes, so tackling this monster with doubling and % damage from {{ItemIcon|Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Master)}} will have the most benefit out of all three mobs. {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} first is highly discouraged as runes are very difficult to obtain on a CO account, making it vital to use {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} to maximise rune efficiency. A comparison of alternative {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} methods is presented below in the dedicated section and it should be clear that {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} is by far the best option. | The recommended order for farming T90s is: {{MonsterIcon|Rokken}} (ranged) → {{MonsterIcon|Ku-tul}} (magic) → {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} (melee).
