The Chaos Fanatic is a relatively simple boss that resides west of the Lava Maze in level 42 Wilderness, surrounded by miniature chaotic clouds that serve as unattackable scenery. His special attack mechanic is similar to that of the crazy and deranged archaeologists.

The Chaos Fanatic is notable for dropping one of the three shards that form the malediction ward and odium ward, with the Crazy archaeologist and Scorpia dropping the other pieces. Killing all three at least once is a hard Wilderness Diary task.

He is one of the only monsters to drop the ancient staff, along with mummies, Calvar'ion, and the thermonuclear smoke devil.

The fastest way to reach the Chaos Fanatic is by casting Ghorrock Teleport or using its magic tablet equivalent. Alternatively, a burning amulet can teleport players to the entrance of the Lava Maze; run west from there. Alternatively, players with the hard Wilderness Diary completed and a POH obelisk can select the level 44 Wilderness teleport.

The Chaos Fanatic is located in single-way combat, meaning the player will be safe from player killers while in active combat with the boss.

His main attack is a basic red Magic projectile with a max hit of 31, with Protect from Magic negating all damage. He additionally has two special attacks.

For his first special attack, he will periodically cast two green unavoidable projectiles which disarm the player. This special attack can be entirely negated by ensuring that your inventory is full at all times. This can be achieved by only using food that leaves behind an item, such as the summer pie, along with disabling potion smashing in the gameplay settings.

For his second special attack, he will periodically cast six slow moving green projectiles in an arc towards the player which will explode on impact with the ground. This may be easily avoided by stepping forward. Unlike the crazy and deranged archaeologists, this is not preceded by a specific voice line, though it is generally easier to avoid due to its slow speed and inaccuracy.

The Chaos Fanatic is weakest to Ranged attacks.
