The entrance to the kiln

The TokHaar Fight Kiln is a combat minigame announced in the February 2012 Behind the Scenes, and released on 14 February 2012.

The Fight Kiln is a revamped version of the TzHaar Fight Cave that is extremely difficult to complete for the average player. Only the best adventurers can survive all 37 gruelling waves. This requires many times more persistence and skill than the original Fight Cave. It is recommended by Jagex and players alike that one should attain 85+ in all combat skills before attempting the Fight Kiln, although it is possible to complete it without these stats.

Before entering the Fight Kiln for the first time, a one-time payment of a fire cape is required. After this, the kiln may be reentered as many times as desired for the rewards - a choice of either the TokHaar-Kal (an improved version of the fire cape) or an uncut onyx.

A player sacrificing his Fire cape to gain access to the Fight Kiln.

Unlike the typical 63 waves of the Fight Cave, the Fight Kiln only has 37 waves. Unlike the Fight Cave, there is no combat level pattern to be followed for each wave in the Fight Kiln. However, the waves of the Fight Kiln are always the same and the monsters always spawn in the same location.

There are several safespots in the Fight Kiln that can be used to lure and trap the TokHaar. Be aware, however, that the cave will slowly fill with lava, submerging the safespots and forcing the player to use the low wall in the middle of the area for luring. Lava will fill the cave after waves 10, 20, 30 and 34. By the time the final boss fight with Har-Aken commences, only a square-shaped piece of land will be available.

Unlike the Fight cave, you are allowed to bring a familiar with you within the arena.

Every alternate wave will also cause lava crystals to spawn in the Kiln, which can be used to gain bonuses such as temporary invincibility or full prayer and lifepoint restoration. Use them to the fullest to survive the waves - especially the seven TokHaar-Jads and the terrible Har-Aken.

Monsters

Name Level First Wave Count Life points Attack style Max hit Notes
TokHaar-Hur
100 1 20 900 Melee 124 By far the weakest creature in this minigame, it hardly does any damage and can be killed quickly. Using magic to kill it is recommended.
TokHaar-Xil
140 1 8 1300 Ranged 194 It has more lifepoints than his Tok-Xil counterpart, but does not hit as hard or often. Using melee to kill it is recommended.
TokHaar-Tok-Xil
200 1 46 700 Melee,
Ranged
234 It hits higher and more often than his Xil counterpart but can be killed much more quickly. Using melee to kill it is recommended, and it should also be the first priority to kill in most cases (unless it is trapped).
TokHaar-Mej
160 4 27 1,200 Magic,
Melee
194 (melee)
220+ (magic)
It attacks with magic and accurate melee (when in melee range). Always stand at least a square away from one. Using ranged to kill it is recommended.
TokHaar-Ket-Dill
120 5 8 900 Melee 250 (melee)
~350 (special)
It needs to be hit with either a Rune pickaxe or Dragon pickaxe anywhere between 2-5 times to remove its armour. After the armour has been removed, it can be damaged. Dreadnips or a combat familiar can deal damage through the armour. It attacks with an accurate melee attack and sometimes uses a special attack that hits for consistently high damage. Luring and trapping it is recommended before trying to break its armour. Using magic to kill it is recommended. It tends to use the special attack more if you protect from melee. WARNING: The TokHaar-Dill's special attack is able to hit through the invulnerability crystal.
TokHaar-Ket-Zek
400 8 23 1,800 Magic,
Melee
780 It should be dealt with as soon as possible since it hits very accurately even when praying against his attack style. Using ranged to kill it is recommended. It is surprisingly weak against Dreadnips.
TokHaar-Yt-MejKot
300 17 30 1,000 Melee 320 Despite its high level, it is inaccurate, but it does have high strength, so trapping it or using the appropriate protection prayer is recommended. Using magic to kill it is recommended. It is surprisingly weak against Dreadnips.
TokHaar-Ket
180 22 5 1,500 Melee 214 It is not as dangerous as its combat level suggests, but nevertheless it should be trapped before killing it (use Protect from Melee otherwise). Using magic to kill it is recommended.
TokHaar-Jad
780 10 7 2,500 Melee,
Ranged,
Magic
1014 Similar to TzTok-Jad, it is strongly advised to switch prayers to block its attacks. Up to 50 damage can be dealt through prayer, however, so healing between prayer switches is recommended to keep lifepoints high. It is recommended to eliminate other monsters before facing TokHaar-Jad. If that is counterproductive, make sure that other monsters do not interfere with the fight.

Har-Aken

800 37 1 13,000 Melee,
Ranged,
Magic
~250 The final boss of the Fight Kiln, it attacks with numerous magic and ranged tentacles. It can only be defeated by killing its head, which emerges every 72 seconds. The tentacles can be attacked, but the head will appear regardless. Storm of Armadyl or the polypore staff in combination with magic crystal and Soul Split is an effective way to damage the head, but its also dangerous, as it halves defence. So it is crucial to wear high defense armour while activating the magic crystal on Har-Aken, keeping in mind that it lasts for 3.5 minutes.

Crystals

In some waves you can obtain Crystals, which grant certain "power-ups" usable only in the Fight Kiln. Only one crystal can be activated at a time, so the effects cannot be combined. When a crystal is used, the appropriate stat is boosted to 150% (148 at 99) while the other combat stats are reduced to 50% (49 at 99).

It is recomended to pick following crystals: Invulnerability, Constitution and Restoration. Others will just occupy inventory space and they are likely to be not needed throughout the cave. Picking magic crystal is only advised if experienced enough.

Invulnerability crystal should be used on wave 35. Constitution crystals are recomended to save for Har'Aken and restoration crystals are useful whenever your lifepoints and prayers are low.

Crystal Effect Waves
Invulnerability
Offers complete invulnerability for 15 seconds. It does not work when TokHaar- Ket-Dill uses its special attack. Note that damage will still be received if the crystal is activated after a monster has already done its attack animation. Damage dealt by Overloads is not negated while this crystal is in use. 1, 13, 25
Restoration
Fully restores prayer points and life points. 3, 15, 27
Magic
Boosts Magic by 50% for 3.5 minutes but also significantly reduces Defence, Strength, and Ranged. At level 99 Magic, the level is boosted to 148, giving a staggering 147% magic damage boost and allowing spells to frequently hit much higher than before. 5, 17 29
Ranged
Boosts Ranged by 50% for 3.5 minutes but also significantly reduces Defence, Strength, and Magic. 7, 19, 31
Strength
Boosts Strength by 50% for 3.5 minutes but also significantly reduces Defence, Ranged, and Magic. 9, 21, 33
Constitution
Boosts Constitution by 50% for 3.5 minutes. The Constitution boost also affects Saradomin brews and the Unicorn stallion's healing aura scrolls. It should also be noted that when the Constitution crystal wears off, the user is healed to full health. 11, 23 35

 

Rewards

A player wearing the TokHaar-Kal.

Upon victory in the Fight Kiln, players can choose a reward of either the TokHaar-Kal cape or an uncut onyx.

Note: If a player has a full inventory while choosing a reward, or clicks away from the reward chatbox, the player will be transported outside of the Fight Kiln and will have to go back in and talk to TokHaar-Hok again to claim the reward (providing at least 1 free inventory slot is available). You cannot play the Fight Kiln again until you have claimed your reward.

Trivia

  • Upon completing the Fight Kiln, the following message appears in your Adventurer's Log: "I defeated many waves of TokHaar, before vanquishing the mighty Har'Aken and conquering the Fight Kiln."
  • An Early bird lamp was obtained by players who reached wave 30 of the minigame within two weeks of its release - before 29 February 2012.
