Ironman verdict

Zulrah's scales 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 1 monster, 3 recipes and 3 other sources for it.

You can make it yourself, no skill level needed, from Tanzanite fang. That is the lowest-level of its 3 recipes. If you would rather kill for it, the lowest-level monster that drops it is Zulrah (level 725), at Always. It also comes from 3 other sources, such as Medium port reward bag and Large port reward bag.

Among the bosses we cover, Zulrah drops it, and it is one of the drops we flag as worth chasing there.

It is a material in 4 recipes, for example Anti-venom(1) (87 Herblore), Anti-venom(2) (87 Herblore) and Anti-venom(3) (87 Herblore). High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 12 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 168 coins; only alch it to clear space.
