The blood-starved venator is a superior variant of the venator. It has a chance of spawning after purchasing the unlock Bigger and Badder for 50 Slayer reward points from any Slayer master. Unlike other superior monsters, this is currently the only variant that is able to spawn without requiring a slayer task. It shares the same attacks as venators, but can also walk toward the player to melee. Like their regular counterparts, blood-starved venators drop a venator heart when killed with the special attack of the Sunspear.

Drops

Drop rates are estimated based on 533 samples from the Drop Rate Project, unless otherwise cited.

In addition to 100% drops and tertiary drops, superior slayer monsters will always roll 2 additional items, of which only 1 roll may be from the superior unique table. The other rolls are performed on the regular counterpart's table.
