* - Any object that is lit and emits light. Some examples are Lit Candle, Lit Torch, Bullseye Lantern, etc.

** - Such objects can be a Knife, a Dagger, a Scimitar, etc.

Start: Flying Horse Inn, Ardougne


  1. Talk to Lucien. He will tell you to retrieve an artifact called the Staff of Armadyl from the Temple of Ikov. He will give you a Pendant of Lucien.



  2. All you will need for this part is your Lit Candle, so take that from the Bank. Now go to the Temple of Ikov, which can be found just a little south of the Ranging Guild. While you are doing this quest, there are two Banks you can use: One at the north of Ardougne, and one in Seer's Village. Also, if you have Level 68 Fishing or higher, you may use the Fishing Guild's Bank.



  3. Find the Temple's Entrance, and go down the Ladder.



    Go straight west from the Ladder, and go down the Staircase. Here is where you need your Light Source. Walk across the room and slash through the Web. Pick up the Boots of Lightness. These boots reduce your weight by 5 Kilograms!



  4. Return to a Bank, and deposit everything except for your Boots of Lightness and the Pendant of Lucien. Your weight must be below 0 Kilograms. Go back to the Temple of Ikov.

  5. From the entrance, make sure you are wearing the Boots of Lightness, and take the northern Gate. Run past the level 45 Skeletons, and across the bridge. You MUST be wearing the Boots of Lightness to cross the bridge. Open the door, and turn left and pick up the Lever.

  6. Cross back over the Bridge, and head north till you find a Lever. Right click the Lever and search it for Traps, and you will disable a Trap on it. Pull the Lever.



  7. Return to a Bank, and pick up your Ranging Gear. You must have a Yew or Magic bow. You do not need to bring Arrows. Do not deposit the Lever. Return to the Temple.

  8. When you first come down, you should see a Lever Bracket. Place the Lever in the Bracket, by using the Lever with the Bracket.



  9. Pull the Lever. This time, take the south Gate and follow the path. Run past the level 61 Ice Spiders, until you find some alcoves with Chests. Open each Chest and search. If you find nothing, move on to the next Chest. Eventually, you will find some Ice Arrows. If you have a low Range level (around level 40 or below), get about 40 Ice Arrows. If you have a much higher level, you will need less Ice Arrows. Each time you find the Ice Arrows, they will switch Chest locations, so keep searching each Chest. There are about six different Chests.



  10. The Ice Spiders may do some damage if you have a low level Character, so you may want to bring Food. You also may want to use Protect from Melee, but reserve your Prayer for later use.



  11. Once you have your Ice Arrows, return to the entrance room. Now go back through the northern Gate, back through the swarm of Skeletons, and take the turn until you come to an area with Broken Arrows. Wield your Yew or Magic Bow and Ice Arrows, and prepare yourself for battle. This is where you should use Protect from Magic.

  12. Pass through the Door, and go across the room and open the next Door. The Fire Warrior of Lesarkus (Level 84) will appear. Turn on Protect from Magic and attack him with your Ice Arrows until he is killed.

  13. Return to a Bank and withdraw your 20 Limpwurt Roots. Return to where you have killed the Fire Warrior, and pass through the Door. Nothing will stop you this time. Proceed to the Lava. There you will find Winelda, a witch. Speak with her to give her the Limpwurt Roots. She will teleport you across the lava.



  14. Once across, run past the Skeletons (note the Ladder you pass, as well as the Wall you can push), and keep following the path past the Lesser Demons (Level 82) until you reach the Shiny Key. Pick it up and return to the Wall you saw earlier. Push it and continue into the next room.



  15. Now you must choose how you are going to finish the quest: on the Guardians' side, or Lucien's side:


    1. Guardians' Side
      1. Remove the Pendant of Lucien, and Speak with a Guardian. Ask them who they are, then who the Maharajat are, and when they mention Lucien, continue on that topic and say that it is time for your bath. The Guardian will splash Holy Water on you. Now, agree to help them defeat Lucien. They will give you a Pendant of Armadyl, similar looking to Lucien's Pendant.



      2. Exit through the Wall, and return to the ladder you saw earlier. Climb it, and use the Shiny Key on the door. Now, head to the Forest north of Varrock. South of the Spirit Tree, there will be a house. Enter it, wear the Pendant of Armadyl, and attack Lucien (Level 14) and kill him. Congratulations! Quest Complete!


    2. Lucien's Side
      1. Either Telekinetic Grab the Staff of Armadyl, or pick it up. If you decide to pick it up manually, you must kill all the Guardians (Level 43 and 45) in the room. Once you obtain the Staff, exit through the Wall and head to the Ladder you passed earlier. Climb it and use the Shiny Key on the exit.

      2. Head to the Forest north of Varrock, and look for a house (South of the Spirit Tree). Enter it, and speak with Lucien. You will give him the staff. Congratulations! Quest Complete!
Reward: One Quest Point, 10,500 Ranging Experience, 8,000 Fletching Experience, the Pendant of Lucien, and the Pendant of Armadyl if you side with the Guardian

Congratulations! Quest Complete!

You have completed the Temple of Ikov!
1 Quest Point
10,500 Ranged Experience
8,000 Fletching Experience
