[[Monster|view]] • [[talk:Infobox Monster|talk]]The Chaos Elemental is one of the strongest monsters in the [[1]], overtaking the [Black Dragon|King Black Dragon], which held the title for 4 years prior to the Evolution of Combat. The Chaos Elemental held the title for 2 years and 7 months before the introduction of the [Beast|Corporeal Beast].
The Chaos Elemental is known for the [2h sword|dragon 2h sword], [Warriors' equipment|Ancient Warriors' equipment] and ancient artefacts it can drop. In addition, it drops large quantities of [rune|Chaos rune]s, [rune|Blood rune]s and [rune|Death rune]s, more than most other monsters.
On [February|1 February] [[2]], the Chaos Elemental received a graphical update. Prior to The Wilderness and Free Trade Return!, it resembled a dark cloud with six tentacles and a lavender tint.
Location[]
The Chaos Elemental dwells in the members-only section of the [[3]], just west of the [Castle|Rogue's Castle]. This area is moderately easy to access from the deep Wilderness teleport lever in [[4]] or [[5]]. A [Obelisk|Wilderness Obelisk] can randomly teleport players southeast of the Rogue's Castle.
Attacks[]
The different attack types
Fighting the Chaos Elemental with Ranged
Discord: The Chaos Elemental's primary attack, a projectile attack, is an orb of different colours fired at the target. This attack can deal either magic, ranged, or melee damage - it is impossible to distinguish what damage is dealt until the attack hits. The projectiles hit into the 500s, but it is still suggested that players utilise [from Magic|Protect from Magic] to reduce the chance of being hit, as the projectile deals magic damage most frequently.
It also has two special attacks:
- Confusion: The Chaos Elemental teleports the players to a random area nearby, unless they are 20 [square|Game square]s away.
- Madness: The Chaos Elemental will remove the player's mainhand weapon and randomly remove up to three equipped items. If the player's inventory is full, items will stay equipped.

Drops[]
As of [Wilderness and Free Trade Return!|1 February 2011], the drops from the Chaos Elemental have been improved, as it now drops [Warriors' Equipment|Ancient Warriors' Equipment], [artefacts|Ancient artefacts] and [gloves|Brawling gloves] in addition to previous drops.
The Chaos Elemental usually drops two items, however it can drop one item occasionally.

- See main article: Letters to the Chaos ElementalThe Chaos Elemental's letters in [from the hedge|Postbag from the hedge] hint at forthcoming updates, in a rather cryptic manner.
Trivia[]
- The examine information of the Chaos Elemental, pUre A cHaOs of crEatuRe!, reflects its chaotic nature. A grammatically correct examine would be "A creature of pure chaos." The chaotic nature of the examine text is also symbolised by the alternating between upper and lower case.
- The Chaos Elemental can still attack players even while doing its death animation. It is unknown if this was intended or not.
- In Postbag from the Hedge #39, [[16]] states that the Chaos Elemental is related to the [Elemental|Balance Elemental] by some means.[1]
- In Postbag from the Hedge #41, Postie Pete went through the Chaos Elemental's suitcase and found it to be full of paper. He had previously asked the elemental's actual name, and although the Chaos Elemental teleported, the words on the scraps of paper either underlined or circle with red spell the phrase 'Is Eondethwleaos' when reversed.
- After killing the Chaos Elemental, the adventurer's log will say "I killed the cHaOs EleMeNTal.", similarly to the examine text, as it alternates between upper and lower case.
- Killing more than one Chaos elemental will result in the Adventurer's Log saying "I killed # cHaOs EleMeNTalS."
- Currently, this monster holds the record for having the largest drop table, with 128 different items, not counting different quantities or the rare drop table.
- Prior to the Evolution of Combat, the Chaos Elemental had a combat level of 305.
- The Chaos Elemental is known to have no exact age, the formula for it changing every day.[2] The following formulas are known to have been the ages of the Chaos Elemental in the past:
- On [March|9 Bennanth 169 in the 5th age], the Elemental's age was: [3]
- Where is the number of such object that exist.
- On [July|30 Fentuary 169 in the 5th age], the Elemental's age was: [2]
- Where the number of pies eaten is the count from the day before this letter was received
- The area of the Wilderness is in acres
- The depth of Ardougne's port is taken in fathoms
- Here, indicates the nth prime number, and is the function that counts the number of prime numbers less than or equal to n.
- The plus or minus is to be taken to whichever index of produces the closest prime number to the argument used in the prime counting function
- Another way to put this is to find , and then use the nearest prime number as the age of the elemental
- It is not mentioned how to calculate the age of the elemental if this formula falls evenly between two different prime numbers
- While not mentioned how it was calculated, the Elemental is known to be 12,000 years old when its [Trumps|Top Trumps] card was written.
- On [March|9 Bennanth 169 in the 5th age], the Elemental's age was: [3]
- The Wilderness Warning Sign that can be found on the perimeter of the wilderness, contains an image of the Chaos Elemental and when examined shows the text "Danger, Wilderness up ahead. Watch out for the Bea
