Thugs are level 10 monsters who are found exclusively in the Wilderness on members' servers. Having relatively high health and decent drops in comparison to other similarly level monsters make them an excellent monster to train on. Thugs are an excellent source of easy clue scrolls if they are killed while wearing a ring of wealth (i). Thugs in the Edgeville Dungeon respawn quickly and attack players aggressively regardless of level, making them an excellent source of low-effort, good-profit combat in terms of experience awarded and the herbs they drop.

Killing them for a looting bag is efficient given the amount of hitpoints they have compared to other monsters in the Wilderness and aggressive to all players.
