Swamp tar is a thick substance found in Lumbridge Swamp and Mort Myre Swamp.

Swamp tar is required for crafting swamp paste for various repairing purposes. It can be distilled into lamp oil, which is used as fuel for various light sources, or be used to make guam, marrentill, tarromin, harralander tar, and irit tar, which are used as bait and ammunition for salamanders.

Uses

Swamp paste

It can be combined with flour to produce raw swamp paste, and then heated on a fire to create swamp paste. Swamp paste is a sticky item used in the Sea Slug quest as well as the Shades of Mort'ton and Fishing Trawler minigames.

Herb tar

When combined with a Guam, marrentill, tarromin, harralander or irit, swamp tar becomes ammunition for salamanders when used as a weapon. 1 herb is needed for every 15 swamp tar.

The action of creating the herb tar can be used in tick manipulation, allowing you to do certain actions faster.

Lamp oil

Swamp tar can be processed at the home of the Chemist or at Miltog's Lamps (in Dorgesh-Kaan) to turn empty lanterns into filled lanterns so that they may be lit.
