Here’s a quick guide on how you can get a water talisman as an ironman in RS3:

What is a Water Talisman?

A water talisman is used for:

  • Accessing the Water Altar to craft water runes.

  • Making combination runes with water as one of the elements.

How to Obtain a Water Talisman

1. Kill Monsters

Certain monsters drop water talismans. Here are some good options:

  • Abyssal Creatures:

    • Found in the Abyss; often drop elemental talismans.

  • Icefiends:

    • Located in places like the Asgarnian Ice Dungeon or Chaos Tunnels.

    • Relatively low-level and easy to kill. These are perhaps the best option.

  • Grotworms:

    • Found in the Grotworm Lair south of Port Sarim.

    • Moderate-level monsters with decent drop rates for talismans.

  • Giants:

    • Moss Giants or Fire Giants sometimes drop elemental talismans.

2. Skilling at Runespan

While less direct, you might get talismans from activities like:

  • Runecrafting at the Runespan: While siphoning nodes you may receive talismans as rewards.

3. Temple Trekking

  • Temple Trekking: Some rewards from this activity include elemental talismans.

Ironman Tips

  • Farm Monsters with High Drop Rates: Focus on Icefiends or Grotworms for a good balance of effort and rewards.

  • Plan Ahead: Combine your hunt for the talisman with other skills you want to train (e.g. slayer)

  • Stock Up: If you get extra talismans keep them for later use, especially for crafting combination runes.
