Earth warriors are a type of humanoid earth elemental found in a dirt-lined chamber in the Edgeville Dungeon. This area is in the Wilderness so it is advised to come prepared for player killers. Earth warriors can be safe-spotted in the bottom right corner or top of the first chamber.

Their chamber requires the player to climb across a set of monkey bars, which requires 15 Agility. It is not possible to fail the set of monkey bars.

While climbing the monkey bars all damage you receive will stack until you climb to the other end.

Be careful of player killers who disguise themselves in full bronze armour to take on the appearance of earth warriors. It is recommended to bring food and an emergency teleport. The chamber in which they are located stretches from level 7 to level 10 Wilderness. Navigate to your Settings and enable PK Skull Prevention. If you attack them, you will become skulled because you are in the Wilderness, and can risk losing all of your items if you are not careful. This can easily be avoided, as the bronze armour worn by players is much darker than an earth warrior's skin, and the feather on the helmet is purple.

Very rarely, you may encounter a non-disguised player killer. When killing earth warriors, keep a close eye and have a plan of escape (e.g. Stay by the monkey bars to escape quickly when they spawn). Keep in mind that teleports still work here, and you should not bring anything that you can't afford to lose.

It is recommended to use crush weapons or magic when fighting them, as they are slightly weaker to those attack styles. The Wilderness weapons are also very effective here, though costly to use.
