Trivia

  • In RuneScape Classic, it was possible to wield this item as a weapon. Its appearance resembled that of a bronze longsword but its stats were weaker than a bronze dagger.
  • Count Draynor is the only vampyre that is killed using a stake.
  • In the 25th Anniversary event, Dr Harlow provides Gary with some of the logs used to make the stakes as a woodcutting memento. The logs appear to be regular logs from trees, revealing that the stake isn't made out of any special material.
