The rosewood blowpipe is a blowpipe that requires 65 Ranged to wield. It is made with a knife from two rosewood logs and a squid beak, requiring 84 Fletching and granting 200 experience. It is able to shoot up to rune darts. It can store a maximum of 16,383 darts.

As with all blowpipes, the base attack speed varies; in player versus monster encounters, its attack speed is 3, or equal to darts. During player versus player combat, its attack speed is 4, or equal to a shortbow.

Like the toxic blowpipe, it must be charged with darts by using the darts on the blowpipe. Unlike the toxic blowpipe, it does not need to be charged with Zulrah's scales to use it.

If the blowpipe is protected upon death, all darts will be maintained in the blowpipe when you respawn.


It is currently impossible to use only a fletching knife to fletch a blowpipe. With both a regular knife and a fletching knife on the player, the fletching action does get sped up by one tick, however.

Special attack

A player performs the rosewood blowpipe's special attack, Rapid Burst.

The rosewood blowpipe has a special attack, Rapid Burst, which will shoot two darts in rapid succession, using 25% of a player's special attack energy.

It functions similarly to a budget dragon knife for enemies with low defence, or against targets on which the player is guaranteed a successful hit.


The tooltip incorrectly states that the special attack has reduced accuracy and increased damage.

Ranged and Hitpoints experience is granted for the second hit even if the first hit fully depletes the target's hitpoints. The second hit will show as a blue zero damage hitsplat despite being calculated as a hit.

Hotfix

A rosewood blowpipe filled with darts can no longer be deposited in the STASH unit due to a bug deleting the darts.

Trivia

  • The maximum amount of darts that can be held by the blowpipe, which is 16,383, is equivalent to the maximum value that can be represented by 14 bits (). This property is shared by the toxic blowpipe, which has 14 bits allocated for storing the ammo count while the rest of the bits in its 32-bit metadata are allocated for dart types and futureproofing.[1]
  • Despite the rosewood blowpipe not being charged with Zulrah's scales, the message received when running out of darts is Your blowpipe has run out of scales and darts.
