How to Get the Crystal Bow in Runescape Dragon Wilds

To begin the hunt, head to the Fractured Plains and find a Memorial gravestone atop the cliff. To reach it, you will need a Windstep Spell that gets unlocked at the Runecrafting Level 8. Start from the Whispering Swamp entrance, move left uphill, and use Windstep to jump onto the wooden platforms that lead you to the peak of the cliff.
After you are there, interact with the glowing blue gravestone that is near the Anima tree. It will trigger the quest and will give you the Crystal Seed. The Memorial will reveal the sorrowful elven tale, thereby setting the story for the journey. It will ask you to find 6 more hidden gravestones.
Each of the gravestones remains placed near the Anima tree, quite often tucked away in the ruins or the cliff edges and tied with the piece of the story.
  • To find the second Memorial gravestone, head east to the 1st one. Drop down using the Windstep and look for the ruined building. The Memorial sits on a small cliff beside the Anima tree.
  • For the third, go east to the second gravestone. It’s nestled near the tree roots on the other cliff edge.
  • For the 4th, head southeast and find the gravestone next to the ruined tower and the Anima tree.
  • Further southeast, you will find the fifth gravestone hidden in the cluster of ruins.
  • The 6th gravestone is north of the 5th. It rests on the hill, just off the main path.
  • The last gravestone is beyond the gorge, crossed by a fallen tree. Just turn left after you cross it and follow the edge of the cliff to spot the gravestone near another Anima tree.

Some locations might even host enemies like Garou. So, remain prepared with the ranged attacks or the shield.
