'''Bellock''', the '''crazy archaeologist''', is an insane [[Human|individual]] and [[boss]] who resides in the [[Ruins (west)|ruins]] south of [[The Forgotten Cemetery]] (level 23 Wilderness). He uses [[Ranged]] and [[melee]] attacks and can perform a [[special attack]] where he throws explosive books that explode in a 3x3 area.
'''Bellock''', the '''crazy archaeologist''', is an insane individual and [[boss]] who resides in the [[Wilderness]] south of The Forgotten Cemetery (level 23 Wilderness). He uses Ranged and melee attacks and can perform a special attack where he throws explosive books that explode in a 3x3 area.
Bellock is one of the three [[Wilderness#Bosses|Wilderness bosses]] that drop one of three shards of the [[malediction ward]] and [[odium ward]].
Despite his high Magic defence, he has a negligible Magic level, and thus has a weakness to Magic. This is because Magic defence is primarily based on one's Magic level.

It is recommended to use [[Magic armour]] with the [[Trident of the seas]] while [[praying range]] and avoiding his [[special attack]] of explosive books as soon as he says, "''Rain of knowledge!''" The best way to avoid it is by keeping a considerable distance, and running towards him until you are two squares away from him (this way, you will avoid [[Melee]] damage), and repeating the same steps over and over, you will minimise the chance of receiving damage.

The fastest way to get there is by using the spell [[Dareeyak Teleport]] from the [[Ancient Magicks]] spellbook with 78 [[Magic]] or a [[Dareeyak teleport]] tablet. Alternatively a [[burning amulet]] can be used to teleport to bandit camp and run to the ruins. Alternately you can teleport to Trollheim (61 Magic) and take the agility shortcut to the Wilderness, placing you right next to the ruins.

The setup primarily consists of only '''taking 3 or 4 expensive items''' as this boss is located in the [[Wilderness]] with the possibility of [[player killers]] appearing. Although the crazy archaeologist is within the teleport range in the Wilderness (up to level 30 Wilderness), you may get [[teleblock]]ed. Untradeable items such as [[god capes]] are lost upon death above level 20 Wilderness. The crazy archeologist wanders around level 22 and 25 of the Wilderness.
