Ice strykewyrms can be found in a cave west from the Frozen waste plateau. The cave will look like the entrance of a big castle that is located directly west when walking up the snow pathway onto the Frozen waste plateau. The area around the cave resides in the Wilderness, but the cave itself is safe. Beware of Pkers that might be waiting.
You can reach the cave by talking to Kolodion in Edgeville who will teleport you next to the Mage arena, from there walk west past the Wildy wyrm and the Wilderness agility course, onto the Frozen waste plateau. You can also directly teleport to the Frozen waste plateau with the Ice plateau teleport. This requires level 89 Magic, the Lunar spellbook and 3 Law runes, 3 Astral runes and 8 Water runes.
Ice strykewyrms require level 87 Slayer to damage them, making them only available to players with an Active membership. They can be assigned as a slayer task by Vannaka and Duradel.
Magic and Range are the best choice when facing the ice strykewyrms. It is strongly advised to kill them from a safe distance while using the Protect from Magic Prayer. By doing this you can avoid their melee attacks and reduce their magical damage.
The ice strykewyrms are burrowed underground when you enter the cave. When clicking inspect mound, they will appear on the surface and damage you (upto 20) if you are standing too close, so you have to move away. During combat the ice strykewyrms will burrow underground again and reappear at another place. Players should run away again and this time not investigate the mound, as it will appear by itself and damage you if you are too close.
