The '''Kalphite Lair''' is located north-east of the [[Bedabin Camp]], in the [[Kharidian Desert]]. Players will need a [[rope]] to enter the lair and another to enter the area containing the [[Kalphite Queen]]. As the name suggests, only [[Kalphite]]s live in this area.
This architectural masterpiece isn't just any castle; it's a tri-level wonder. At its peak, you'll find [[Royal Revenants]], custom-made for our [[Royal Donator]]s. These creatures don't just match our current revenants; they surpass them. We provide you with an additional '''10% PvM boost in damage and accuracy''' on this top floor. Not to mention, lurking in the respective corners, await '''Venenatis, Vet'ion, Callisto''', and Nex. Be forewarned, this is a '''PvP Zone'''.
Players will need to bring a rope every time they visit the lair, and another rope should they wish to reach the Queen's lair; players who have completed the [[Hard Desert Diary]] need not do so after attaching the ropes one last time post-diary completion. There is also a crevice [[shortcut]] requiring 86 [[Agility]] and the [[Elite Desert Diary]] to use; it is a two-way shortcut and is helpful for players wishing to kill the Kalphite Queen as it will drop them off in the room leading to her chamber. Entering the Kalphite Lair, as well as collecting 5 [[potato cacti]] while inside, are required for the [[Easy Desert Diary]].
Descend to the base floor, where functionality meets convenience. A bank, HP Pool, altars and shops, and familiar surroundings await, serving as your sanctuary in this thrilling new world.
From this base floor, you can venture into the '''Royal Dungeon'''. A place where every conceivable skilling activity can be pursued, each rewarding you with Double XP in this adrenaline-charged '''PvP Zone'''. We're also introducing an innovative approach to train firemaking - '''The Bonfire''' method.
'''Note:''' This area is '''not''' affected by [[desert heat]], thus [[Waterskin]]s are not necessary while inside the lair's entrance.
==Getting there==
==Getting there==
*[[Fairy ring]] - A quick way to access the lair is using the nearby fairy ring with the code {{Fairycode|BIQ}}. Then, run north-west towards the lair.
* You can get there by typing ::Royal in-game.
*[[Shantay Pass]] - An alternative is entering the desert via Shantay Pass, which is located south of [[Al Kharid]] and requires a [[Shantay pass (item)|Shantay pass]], and heading westward to the lair.
*[[Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon]] - Alternatively, those with access to [[Dorgesh-Kaan]] will be able to find a [[blocked tunnel]] in the Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon that leads through to the lair, emerging near some [[Kalphite Worker|Kalphite Workers]]. A [[light source]] is necessary to avoid damage from swarming insects.
==First (upper) level==
==Ground floor==
[[File:Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon map.png|thumb|Reaching Kalphite Lair via Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon.]]
*The player needs a [[rope]] to access the Kalphite Lair initially and a second rope to reach the [[Kalphite Queen|Queen]]. The main entrance requires one rope each visit unless the [[Hard Desert Diary]] is done.
*There is a [[blocked tunnel|tunnel]] to the [[Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon]]. If players do not use a [[light source]] in this tunnel, they will be repeatedly stung by insects in the darkness.
*There is a hole to the middle level (the Queen's Lair), which requires the second rope, with the total of two ropes used on this dungeon.
===Additional features===
bunch of shops
*The upper level has many [[Kalphite Worker]]s and some [[Kalphite Soldier]]s, which are popular and great spots for players with a [[Dwarf multicannon]] on a [[Slayer task]].
*Two [[Kalphite Guardian]]s watch the exit to the second level.
*Three [[potato cacti]] spawn in the chamber with the Kalphite Soldiers on this level.
*Kalphite larva, which can only be attacked by [[cat]]s, roam the level.
==Second (lower) level==
==First floor==
The second level has one exit: a [[rope]] climb at the east to the first level, which is how players must enter initially.
[[File:royal_castleupstairs.png|thumb|Map of the top floor.]]
*The top floor pvm bla bla bla someone add text here
This level contains the [[Kalphite Queen]] as well as two [[Kalphite Guardian]]s, some [[Kalphite Worker]]s (only spawned by the Kalphite Queen), and some Kalphite larva. Seven [[potato cacti]] spawn on this level.

*Up to two [[rope]]s - One is needed to initially enter if not from [[Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon]], another for [[Kalphite Queen]].
**Players who have completed the [[Hard Desert Diary]] will not need to bring ropes for subsequent trips. (However, both ropes need to be placed the first time you enter the lair after completing the Diary.)
*A [[light source]] if entering or exiting via the Dorgesh-Kaan South Dungeon.
*Good [[Ranged]], [[Melee]] or [[Magic armour]]
*[[Anti-poison potion]]s (or a [[Prayer book]] and a [[Holy symbol]])

==Trivia==
*Some players use [[dwarf multicannon]]s in the lair as the [[Kalphite Worker|workers]] and [[Kalphite Soldier|soldiers]] are good prey if you have a lower [[Combat level]] and are hunting [[kalphite]]s for [[Slayer]]. The chamber on the upper level with the [[potato cactus]] spawns is a popular cannon spot, since the most kalphite soldiers can be found there. The cannon will be destroyed by the [[Kalphite Queen|queen]] if used in her vicinity, however.
*Kalphite workers often drop [[waterskin]]s, so you can easily get a new water supply if you ran low when going to the lair.
