Ironman verdict
Oyster pearls 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 Sea Snake Hatchling (level 62), at 1/128, about one in 128 kills. The best rate is from Orca (level 205): 8/92. The 7 monsters we list with a combat level range from level 62 to 303. It also comes from 2 other sources, such as Plundered salvage and Large salvage.
Bosses we cover that drop it: Dagannoth Supreme and Dagannoth Prime.
It is a material in 1 recipe: Pearl bolt tips (41 Fletching). High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 840 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 nets about 660 coins.
