====Consumables====
For all equipment suggestions, [[Consumables|Consumable]] items such as the {{ItemIcon|Explorers Map II}} are suggested, but are by no means required in order to safely idle these monsters. Therefore, this slot can be swapped for any other consumable item, or no consumable at all.

To be able to safely idle {{MonsterIcon|Torvair}} with {{Skill|Magic}}, the following build assumes the player has at least {{Skill|Hitpoints|HP|qty=1200}} and 98% out of combat [[Damage Reduction|DR]] (76% in combat). This equipment recommendation is suitable for all [[Game Mode]]s.

The {{ItemIcon|Witch}} + {{ItemIcon|Yak}} [[Synergy]] and {{PrayerIcon|Holy Aegis}} are required to meet this damage reduction threshold. Note that this equipment leaves a very thin margin of safety, and therefore any deviation from the recommendation which reduces the player's damage reduction is not advised.

Acquiring some pieces of the armour dropped by the {{MonsterIcon|Vorloran Devastator}} provides some much needed [[Damage Reduction]] increases, allowing for more [[Glossary|DPS]]-focused choices to be made. Using the {{ItemIcon|Slicing Maelstrom Wand}} provides a very significant improvement to the kill rate, so is highly recommended.

Vorloran Watcher armour is not so important here, as the [[Damage Reduction]] requirement can be met without it with a negligible impact on kill rate. Further, if using Vorloran armour then only equip the {{ItemIcon|Vorloran Watcher Platebody|Platebody}}, {{ItemIcon|Vorloran Watcher Gauntlets|Gauntlets}}, and {{ItemIcon|Vorloran Watcher Boots|Boots}}, as the {{ItemIcon|Mask of Torment}} and {{ItemIcon|Perfect Sight Legs}} improves the kill rate when compared to the equivalent Vorloran Watcher equipment pieces.
