Overview

The following Skills and Quests are needed to complete the Easy Ardougne diary (23 Achievements):

  • 5 Thieving;
  • 10 Construction;
  • 15 Fishing;
  • 27 Magic after obtaining a crawling hand corpse (89Q9) or 33 Magic & 27 Crafting.

You will also need the following items:

  • Silk;
  • Fully grown pet cat (you may use rule #4 to move on if this is your last remaining task of the set);
  • Unicorn Horn;
  • Cowhide;
  • At least 1 Penguin Point;
  • Runes for 1 cast of Lvl-2 Enchant (and a gold bar and emerald if making your own ring).

It is worth doing Gertrude's Cat first, as you will need a fully grown cat rather than a kitten. You can let it grow whilst working towards the other tasks. If your kitten is not fully grown by the time you have completed the other tasks, rule #4 allows you to mark your task as completed and come back to complete the last task once your cat grows.
