A Chimp ice is an item used during the quest Do No Evil. It is initially bought from Rokuh in Nardah for 1000 coins and a M'amulet mould after being instructed to deliver one to King Awowogei. According to Rokuh due to its peculiar shape, the Chimp ice cannot contain the freezing-inducing magic normally applied to regular Choc ice and will thus melt away within a few seconds and turn into Chocolatey goop. To prevent this from happening the player must drop the item using the Left-click option and cast any of the Ice spells from the Ancient Magics spellbook on the Chimp ice. The Ice rush spell is not strong enough and does not refreeze the ice, but the higher level spells work, each giving a longer time-span between freezing and melting.

After the quest, Chimp ice is sold from the Chimp ice chimp in the centre of the Monkey camp in the Kharidian Desert for 100 coins. Only one can be bought at a time and it serves no purpose other than to be delivered to King Awowogei, through the same process, for further rewards.

Activity tips and information

This activity is a repeatable continuation of bringing King Awowogei chimp ice through the same process as in the Do No Evil quest for further rewards. There are many similarities, but some differences too.

The use of any magic-based transportation results is the Chimp ice melting instantly. Allowed relevant methods of transportation include:

In order to freeze the treat, left-click on the chimp ice to place it on the ground, then select an ice spell and use it on the treat. After casting one of the ice spells on the chimp ice, it will be returned to your inventory automatically.

The higher level the ice spell, the longer it will stay frozen. Ice Barrage, the most powerful ice spell, will keep the chimp ice from melting for approximately 1 minute. Ice Blitz will keep it frozen for about 45 seconds, and Ice Burst will keep it frozen for about 35 seconds.

You will be warned with a red message in your chatbox (similar to the messages warning you about dragonfire protection) of the status of your chimp ice. Note: These times are halved on fast melting runs.

  • 20 seconds before melting, you will receive the message, "Your chimp ice is beginning to melt."
  • 10 seconds before melting, you will receive the message, "Your chimp ice has nearly melted."
  • When your chimp ice melts, you will receive the message, "Your chimp ice has melted."

It is useful to note that the chimp ice will not melt when using a bank, the world map, transportation such as carpets and eagles, and when talking to NPCs.

Tactics

Below are the recommended tactics for both normal and fast melting chimp ices. Players will need to utilise both because every 5th delivery of Chimp ice will melt twice as fast, making the trip considerably harder. Keep in mind, unlike the quest, there is no checkpoint at Lumdo if the Choco ice melts on Ape Atoll.

Items to bring

  • Transportation to Monkey Colony
  • Ice spell runes (& water staff unless going to Entrana)
  • Monkey speak amulet
  • Monkey greegree
  • Coins
  • Magic logs
  • Weight reducing clothes (player weight must be less than 40kg to use balloon system)
  • A piece of food (optional)
  • Antipoison potion (optional)
  • Run energy potion (optional)
  • Enchanted water tiara (optional)

Normal slow melting chimp ices

  1. Buy chimp ice at monkey colony for 100gp, quickly use magic carpet to Shantay Pass.
  2. Arrive at Shantay Pass, enter through gates, freeze chimp ice, talk to Shantay, get sent to jail.
    • Ask him: What is this place?
    • Tell him: I am definitely an outlaw, prepare to die!
    • Say: Deport me to Port Sarim!
  3. Arrive at Port Sarim jail, pick lock, run to Crafting Guild, freeze chimp ice.
  4. Arrive at hot air balloon, take it to Grand Tree (requires 1 magic log), run to Daero, freeze chimp ice before traveling to Glider outpost.
  5. Take glider to crash island, take boat to Ape Atoll, arrive at Ape Atoll, equip greegree and run to mahogany tree just south of large gates.
  6. Arrive at the mahogany tree and stand south of it so the monkey archers don't spot you, take off greegree, freeze chimp ice, equip greegree, and run to the gates.
  7. Go past the gates and south east staying south of the nearest house and sprint east to the king. If done correctly you will not have to freeze it again before you give it to the king. Tall grass adjacent to the hill on the eastern side of the archers will hide your transformation if you must refreeze between the archers and the king.

Fast melting chimp ice method

  1. Buy chimp ice at monkey colony, quickly use magic carpet to Shantay Pass.
  2. Arrive at Shantay Pass, freeze chimp ice, pass through gates and get sent to jail by Shantay.
    • Ask him: What is this place?
    • Tell him: I am definitely an outlaw, prepare to die!
    • Say: Deport me to Port Sarim!
  3. Arrive at Port Sarim Jail, freeze chimp ice, pick lock. This may take a couple tries depending on how many tries it takes to pick the lock.
  4. Proceed to the Crafting Guild. On the way, freeze the chimp ice again.
  5. Arrive at the balloon, freeze chimp ice and take balloon to the Grand Tree.
  6. Arrive at the Grand Tree and run up to Daero, freeze chimp ice before talking to him.
  7. Arrive at the super secret glider hideaway, take glider to Crash Island, then to Ape Atoll.
  8. Arrive at Ape Atoll, freeze chimp ice, run to the mahogany tree freezing ice as needed.
  9. Arrive at the mahogany tree (hugging the south side of it to avoid the monkey archers), freeze chimp ice and proceed to the gates without the greegree on (Turn on protection from range if you don't want to get hurt).
  10. Get shot down and end up in monkey jail. Freeze the chimp ice and wait for the guard to come close to the door.
  11. When the guard is close to the door, freeze chimp ice again and equip the greegree, pick the lock and run east into the tall grass north-west of the altar building.
  12. Once you reach the tall grass take off your greegree and freeze the chimp ice again. Once you freeze the ice, equip the greegree and sprint to the king. You should make it to him in time before the chimp ice melts. If you need to refreeze on the way, there is some tall grass to hide in just south of the altar building entrance, against the western wall.

Getting back to the colony

Rewards

With each successful delivery you are rewarded with one of the following:

On some trips, players receive a cosmetic reward instead of one from the list above. These rewards are based on how many completed trips the player has made to King Awowogei. For the 5th, 10th, and 15th deliveries, King Awowogei will have a Monkey statue built around the Monkey camp. At 25 deliveries, King Awowogei will be convinced that the camp is a valuable asset and will replace the Monkey guards in the camp with red Monkey knife fighters. Unlike the ones in Marim, these cannot be used to train thieving. Players can speak to King Awowogei to learn how many Chimp ices have been brought to him. The chimp ice brought during the quest is not included and does not count for these rewards.

Despite what many players thought, there are no special rewards beyond 25 deliveries. Mod Edam confirmed this by saying:

“ You don’t receive any special rewards after 25. We were thinking of doing so, but didn’t want to make you feel compelled to do hundreds and hundreds of runs. It’s just a bit of post-quest fun if you like the chimp ice task, the rewards are only cosmetic. ”

Delivering 25 Chimp ices is also a requirement to trim the Completionist cape.
