Stegomastyx are large, slow, dinosaur-like creatures that dwell in Daemonheim. Their skin is a tier 8 resource used to make Ranged armour.

Members can choose to trap the stegomastyx with level 70 Hunter, and successfully trapping a stegomastyx yields 599.5 Hunter experience. In order to trap the stegomastyx, a player must create a bovimastyx trap with the Fletching skill by using a knife (in the inventory or tool belt) on branches. The higher the tier of the branches used to create the trap, the more likely the creature will successfully be caught and killed in the trap. Hunting the creatures successfully will yield between three and seven stegomastyx hides. If the trap fails, the stegomastyx will wave its head at the side of the trap with enough force to dismantle and destroy the trap beyond repair, and another bovimastyx trap will need to be created in order to attempt to trap the creature again.
