Start by talking to Torvin in Lumbridge.

Walkthrough

  1. Ask Torvin about his notches

    Ask Torvin, the Slayer master north of Lumbridge castle, about the four notches on his scythe. Keep five slots free for his kit.

    TorvinLumbridge

    Say What are the notches on your scythe? I'll cut four notches.

  2. Get Torvin's sword back

    You have lost the bronze short sword Torvin lent you. Check your bank, or ask him for its twin.

    Say I've lost your sword.

  3. First notch: the blade

    Wield a dagger or sword and kill a cow or goblin in the fields near Lumbridge yourself. Axes, fists and shared kills do not count.

  4. Wield a bow

    Fetch a bow from your bank, or buy one from Lowe in Varrock. Torvin only supplies one. Any bow that fires arrows counts.

  5. Restock your arrows

    Torvin's two refills are spent. Fetch arrows from your bank, pick up arrows you fired, or buy bronze arrows from Lowe in Varrock.

    Let an arrow make the killing blow on a cow or goblin near Lumbridge. Thrown weapons and cannons do not count.

  10. Third notch: the spell

    Kill a cow or goblin near Lumbridge with a spell, such as wind strike. No staff needed. A staff swung in melee is not magic.

  11. Fourth notch: bare skin

    Unequip everything except your weapon and ammunition: helmet, body, legs, shield, gloves, boots, amulet, cape and ring. Then kill one.

  12. Recover Torvin's sword

    Check your bank for Torvin's sword. If it is lost, tell him you have cut all four notches; he can recover the loan before taking it back. Leave a slot free.

    TorvinLumbridge

    Say I've cut all four notches.

  13. Return to Torvin

    Tell Torvin about your four notches. Keep a slot free for his amulet; his loaned sword goes back to him.

    Say I've cut all four notches.
