Meat trees are a type of tree found in the Chambers of Xeric. According to the houndmaster's diary, the meat is "a byproduct of the experiments", referring to the experiments Xeric performed on the muttadiles to speed up a certain mutation.

They are consumed by the muttadile to heal themselves, but players can prevent them from doing so by either binding them or chopping the tree down.

Mechanics

The meat tree's health is five times the total Woodcutting level of the party, having a minimum of 100 health.^[1] For example, if a party of three has level 35, 73 and 99 Woodcutting, the tree's health would be 1,035; and in a party of three where each player has 50 woodcutting, the tree's health would be 750.

The chance of successfully dealing "damage" to the tree scales with the player's Woodcutting level, being 20% at level 1 and 78% at level 99, while the "damage" is based on the player's current Woodcutting level divided by two and between -7/+3 of that result; e.g a player with 80 Woodcutting would deal anywhere from 33-43 damage^[2]. The type of axe used has no impact.^[3]
