The Hespori is a sporadic boss. In order to fight it, players must first plant a Hespori seed in the Hespori patch located in the cave within the west wing of the Farming Guild, which requires level 65 Farming to access (boostable). It takes 22-32 hours to grow, depending on when it was planted. When fully grown, the flower behind the cave entrance will sprout open.

Killing the Hespori allows it to be harvested, which grants 12,600 (12,915 with full Farmer's outfit) Farming experience, as well as seeds, including the rare white lily and anima seeds, along with the bottomless compost bucket.

Casting Resurrect Crops on Hespori after the fight yields no Farming experience or loot. Casting the spell results in the message "Your Spell fails and the patch is cleared."

History

According to Arno, the Hespori is a rare carnivorous plant originating from Morytania, becoming conscious and highly aggressive once fully grown. They were also used as a weapon against vampyres by Queen Efaritay. The Hespori's appearance is also extremely similar to that of The Maiden of Sugadinti and it has been confirmed that there is a link between the two. This link is confirmed in the quest A Night at the Theatre, in which it is revealed that the Maiden was created using Hespori bark, which possesses regenerative properties.

A harder version of the Hespori is fought during A Night at the Theatre quest.

Mechanics

The hespori is surrounded by four flower buds that must be killed before the hespori can be damaged, with the hespori still able to attack during this phase. These flowers will open when the hespori is awakened, and will open again once the hespori goes below 66% health and 33% health respectively. Despite having 10 hitpoints, each flower will die in one hit from any weapon.

Hespori has two basic attacks and a special attack:

• The hespori throws green spores at the player, a basic ranged attack that hits twice. Each has a max hit of 8 for a total of 16. Protect from Missiles reduces each max hit to 2.
• The hespori throws a green wave of magic at the player, a basic magic attack with a max hit of 14. Protect from Magic reduces the max hit to 3. Players with low magic defence are advised to choose Protect from Magic for this fight.
• The hespori entangles the player in roots, preventing the player from moving and attacking. When this happens Hespori entangles you in some vines! appears in the chatbox. This lasts for 6 seconds (10 ticks), after which the player takes 40+ damage. This damage can be avoided if the player breaks free early by clicking repeatedly either on a new tile or the hespori, or using a Transformation Ring. By doing so the player will see You feel the vines loosen slightly as you try to move. appear in the chatbox. After the 5th such message, clicking again will clear the vines and allow the player to move and attack again.

Setup

Hespori has low slash Defence, making slash weapons the best option. At least level 60 melee stats, a dragon scimitar, and high Ranged defence or Strength bonus equipment is recommended. A special attack weapon such as a dragon dagger can be used to quickly deal damage.

Bring high healing food, antipoison, melee stat boosts, and optionally a Ranged weapon, such as darts or a charged blowpipe to quickly kill Hespori's flowers. Some players may wish to save potions and instead catch one of the stat boosting butterflies outside the guild. A Prayer potion may be be required if the fight lasts too long.

A hespori seed, spade and seed dibber (if the Farming portion of Barbarian Training has not been completed) are required to plant a new Hespori after the previous Hespori has been defeated and dug up.

Strategy

Before waking up the Hespori, boost, get poison immunity and equip a Ranged weapon. With high Ranged Defence armour, turn on Protect from Magic, otherwise use Protect from Missiles if using higher Magic Defence armour. Also use melee stat boosting Prayers if available.

Wake up the Hespori, and attack the first round of flowers with Ranged. Swap to a special attack weapon and use the special attacks on Hespori. Switch back to the main slash weapon if the next round of flowers were not activated. Kill the flowers with ranged. If the fight lasts longer than 30-40 seconds, the player will be rooted in place and must escape the vines by clicking to move or attack 7 times. Attack the Hespori until the flowers are active again. Switch to Ranged and kill them again. Finish off Hespori.

Clear the Hespori patch to receive its drops.
