About Marrentill tar

The Marrentill tar is a members-only type of ammunition in Old School RuneScape.

"A thick, foul-smelling, tar-like substance with an orange tinge"

Over the last 30 days it traded between 2 and 7 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 4 gp. About 224,387 units changed hands per day. The price is up 150.0% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 7,000 every 4 hours.

Casting High Level Alchemy returns 1 gp, which is 75.0% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
