The revenant hellhound is a type of revenant that inhabits the Revenant Caves, which is a PvP-enabled area that is part of the Wilderness. Like all revenants, they can restore their health when it falls below 50% and will react to a player's protection prayers; wearing a charged bracelet of ethereum will reduce all revenants' damage by 75%.
The Salve amulet can be a good option for killing revenants due to the damage bonus it provides while being easily replaceable, as PKing in the Revenant Caves is extremely common.
Revenant hellhounds cannot be killed as an alternative for a hellhound Slayer task.
The following drop rates are provided by Jagex, unless otherwise specified.
All revenants share the same drop list. Higher level revenants have a higher chance to drop a unique item as well as valuable common loot instead of coins. Wearing an amulet of avarice will cause all drops in the Revenant Caves to be noted.
