Ironman verdict
Camphor seed is a members item. Other players trade it, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade, so you get your own. We list 7 monsters and 2 other sources for it.
The lowest-level monster that drops it is Butterfly ray (level 68), at 15/2,980, about one in 199 kills. The best rate is from Stingray (level 92): 15/400. The 7 monsters we list with a combat level range from level 68 to 211. It also comes from 2 other sources, such as Large salvage and Martial salvage.
It is a material in 1 recipe: Camphor seedling (66 Farming). High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 36 coins. Each cast uses a nature rune, 180 coins from a rune shop, and five fire runes that a fire staff replaces, so an alch loses about 144 coins; only alch it to clear space.
