How to Get Xeric's Talisman in OSRS

Getting a Xeric's talisman in OSRS opens up convenient teleportation options across Great Kourend.

I will show you the most effective methods to obtain this useful item.

The Fastest Method: Lizardman Canyon

The most efficient way to get Xeric's talisman requires only 5% Shayzien favor. You can earn this favor quickly by healing wounded soldiers in the Shayzien infirmary.

Take bandages from the supply crates and use them on injured soldiers.

Once you have the favor, head to Lizardman Canyon. While some players choose to buy OSRS gold for better equipment, you only need basic ranged gear for this method.

Bring antipoison potions and prayer potions to counter the lizardmen's poison attacks.

The drop rate for Xeric's talisman is 1/250 from any lizardman. If you complete the easy Kourend & Kebos Diary first, this improves to 1/125. If you feel like you have gone way over the drop rate, you can check how dry you are using a calculator.

The lizardmen near the Mountain Guide are particularly good targets, as nearby soldiers help with the kills.

Alternative Method: Stone Chests

You can also obtain the talisman by stealing from stone chests in the Lizardman Temple beneath Molch. The drop rate here is 1/300 and doesn't improve with diary completion.

After obtaining the talisman, you need to charge it with lizardman fangs. Each fang provides one charge and costs 19 coins. The talisman can hold up to 1,000 charges.

Extra talismans can be dismantled for 100 lizardman fangs each, making them valuable for charging your main talisman.
