Elder Chaos druids are high-level mages found in the Wilderness. They are substantially stronger and more accurate than their lower-level counterparts, and are capable of teleblocking players and re-applying it consistently. Additionally, they can teleport fleeing players within melee distance, similar to abyssal demons. The teleportation spell has a maximum range of 20 tiles.^[1] Having read a teleport anchoring scroll will prevent the druids from teleporting the player.

It is highly recommended to use Protect from Magic when killing the Elder Chaos druids, as they can easily kill a player with just a few hits. The altar nearby can be used to restore Prayer points.

Player will receive the following message the first time they enter the Chaos Temple each day:

WARNING: Elder Chaos druids can ignore the immunity period and cast Tele Block on you before it expires.

Strategy

Because of the short distance from the altar within the temple, players with 37 Prayer or higher can train on Elder Chaos druids while using Protect from Magic, allowing a relatively safe experience. However, players should be wary of player killers attempting to skull trick them. This involves the perpetrator dressing up as an Elder Chaos druid and waiting for the unsuspecting victim to attack the player killer by mistake, thus obtaining a skull. To prevent this, it is advised to enable the "PK Skull Prevention" option.

If there are multiple targets, the druids will attempt to teleport the player running that has done the most damage to them before others, even if they are attacking someone else. For this reason, players should bring food with them to ensure they can tank damage that may come from being teleported by the druids as a PKer shows up.
