Mistag is a cave goblin who plays a significant part in The Lost Tribe quest and starts Death to the Dorgeshuun. The rag on his left shoulder covers the arm he lost in a mining accident a few years ago.

He can lead the player to Kazgar near the Lumbridge Castle cellar. After completing Death to the Dorgeshuun, he can also lead the player to Dartog near the water mill cellar.

He buys iron ore for 13.6 coins and silver ore for 60 coins, which are equivalent to 80% of their store value. He does not buy noted ore. The coins will drop the ground if you do not have room in your inventory to hold them.

After completion of The Lost Tribe, players can give him the Brooch in exchange for a Mining Helmet. This can only be done once.

Trivia

  • When the Goblin Bow emote is performed in front of him, he repeats the bow himself.
  • When the Goblin Salute is performed in front of him, he says "Eeek! The war-dance!".
  • The word misstag is the Swedish word for mistake. Since Mistag lost one of his arms in an accident, his name may be a reference to misstag.
