Surprising as it sounds, chinchompas aren’t on any quest checklists. They’re purely utility/combat items—throwables used for multi-target Ranged—rather than quest collectibles you hand over to NPCs. So if you’ve been stockpiling them hoping a future quest will want them, you can relax: their value is in combat and hunting activities, not quest progression.
If you want to make the most of them, think about Ranged training spots, slayer tasks, or short-term flipping on the Grand Exchange. I keep a handful around for a quick burst of chaos when I’m bored of single-target fights; they’re one of those items that make mundane grinding feel mischievously fun.
Alright, quick heads-up from my vault of random game knowledge: no OSRS quest requires chinchompas as an item you must hand over or present during a quest. I went through the usual quest suspects in my head—those with hunting or bird themes—and none demand a chinchompa as a quest prop. The in-game ‘chompy’ content and chinchompas are related thematically (both involve birds and hunting), but they occupy different gameplay roles.
What I do want to highlight is how useful chinchompas are outside of quests. They’re fantastic for area-of-effect Ranged training, especially in crowded spots where you can tag multiples. If you’re into efficient XP, red chinchompas (the special varieties) can be a massive time-saver—though those varieties are pricier. You can get regular chinchompas through hunting methods or just buy them on the Grand Exchange if you want convenience. I usually grab a few dozen for the occasional session and then sell the leftovers; the market moves fast so it’s great for small-time flipping too. Feels good to turn explosive chaos into some profit or tidy XP gains.
I've dug through my quest log and gear bags more times than I can count, and the short, clean response is this: there are no Old School RuneScape quests that list a chinchompa as a required quest item.
That might surprise newer players because chinchompas are such iconic throwable weapons—bright, explosive, and perfect for chaotic multi-target Ranged training. Quests that involve chompy birds or hunting themes (for example, the chompy-related content you encounter out in the world) might put you around the same content space, but they won’t make you hand in chinchompas as a quest item. Instead, chinchompas stay firmly in the combat/hunting toolbox rather than the quest checklist.
If you’re holding onto a stack of chins thinking they’ll be eaten in a quest, don’t panic—they’re extremely useful elsewhere. Use them for group slayer and multi-target Ranged training, or sell/buy them on the Grand Exchange if you want cash. Personally, I always stash a few in my bank for when I want a quick, explosive training session; they’re too fun to letgather dust.

This is the story of Millicent Walker, a mysterious orphan who arrives in the small coastal town of Crimson, mute, nameless, and with no memory of her life before. Hired out by the orphanage to pay for her room and board, her strange appearance and mannerisms lead her to be seen as a freak. To many, she was seen as having less value than the rags she used to clean the floors.
When a blight comes to Crimson, the dragon demands a virgin "of marriageable age" as a sacrifice in exchange for his assistance.
Seen as strange, even cursed, Millicent was an easy choice for the sacrifice. Loved and wanted by no one, there was nobody to fight for her when they chained her to the cart and left her at the base of the hill to be defiled or devoured.
Little did they know, her sacrifice would be their biggest mistake.

Hockey star Leo "The Comet" Valdez has one rule: never let anyone know he's an Omega. In a world of brutal Alphas, his secret is his survival. After a career-defining play that cost Captain Jax "The Ice King" Thorne the championship, Leo's worst nightmare comes true—he's traded to Jax's team.
Forced to work under the man he humiliated, Leo braces for war. Jax is colder than ice, determined to make Leo's life a living hell. But the Captain's possessive hatred masks a dangerous hunger he can't control. He knows Leo is hiding something, and his Alpha is screaming to find out what.
The locker room becomes their battlefield. The ice, their stage. When a brutal hit leaves Leo vulnerable, his scent blockers fail, and the truth is revealed. Jax doesn't expose him. He corners him.
"You're an Omega," Jax growled, his voice a low, dangerous rumble as he pinned Leo against the lockers. "All this time... you've been lying."
"Get off me," Leo shot back, his body trembling with a mix of fear and a traitorous, desperate heat. "It doesn't change anything."
"Doesn't it?" Jax's grip tightened, his body pressing flush against Leo's. His breath was hot against Leo's ear. "It changes everything. Because now, I don't just want to beat you on the ice. I want to break you in this locker room. Over and over again."
Now, Leo is trapped in a game of dominance and desire, where one wrong move could end his career. But as the line between hatred and lust blurs, he starts to wonder if being broken by his Captain might be the most thrilling thing that's ever happened to him.
Harley Gibson is a strictly by-the-book homicide detective with an impressive conviction rate. She is also living a dangerous double life. In the human world, she is respected for her skill at always getting her perp. However, in her native werewolf world, she is on the run, being hunted by the Lycan king, who also happens to be her sperm donor. To Lycan Ian Steel, his only daughter is only a means to an end. Harley doesn't know, but she was destined from birth to become one of the highly sought guardians of Sauther Lake. Ian always had. He killed his mate, Harley's mother, to keep her from taking their daughter back to the lake, where she would be protected from him turning her into his assassin. With divine intervention, Harley escaped Ian's pack. For a while, she stayed under her father's radar by changing her last name and never staying in one place for too long. She became too comfortable in LA after being promoted to homicide detective at the prestigious Santa Monica Police Department. After years of searching for his wayward daughter, Ian finally finds her and pulls out his big gun. Bounty hunter Nicholas Reins is to bring her back. Ian uses his mafia ties to get Nick into the police department under the ruse that he is an FBI agent sent to help Harley solve a high-profile murder case, making national news. Only Ian doesn't know that he also has ties to the syndicate committing the string of murders his daughter is investigating. Nick may be a ruthless huntsman, but the Lycan Princess will soon show him she isn't his usual bounty. Together, they will uncover the truth about her past, their future, solve the 'Anacapa Island' murders, and take down two of the mafia's bosses.
The woman Aelfric was to marry had agreed to undergo this ritual with him. It was the only way for them, as two of the area's few healers, to become strong enough to stop the devastating Swamp Fever from claiming the lives of hundreds of children each year.
As healers, they had exceptional training, the problem was power. Aelfric's research had revealed exactly where healing power came from and why, until now, it was so limited. After this ritual, he and his beloved would change the tides of disease and death in these lands, perhaps the entire world forever.
Aelfric knew Silver-Dew abhorred the idea of immortality. What they were about to do would rid their bodies of their very souls, freeing the concentrated power of the life-spark to be used for their magic. He'd painstakingly crafted each of them a vessel to safeguard their soul. Sil wore hers around her neck: a beautiful, lovingly crafted pendant with a blood red stone in the center. The stone was rendered from the carefully heated blood of the beast that had captured her, the very beast Aelfric had slain.
I get a real grin whenever I head out to trap chinchompas in 'Old School RuneScape' — they're chaotic little critters but excellent for range practice. The main places people hunt them are in the Feldip Hills area and in parts of the Wilderness. If you're going after the more common red chinchompas, the Feldip Hills hunting grounds are the go-to: there are several popular spawn spots where players set up rows of box traps and hop worlds to keep the area active. For the higher-tier black chinchompas, you usually have to venture into Wilderness hunting spots, which is great for loot but carries the PvP risk, so bring an escape method and be cautious.
Catching chinchompas is a box-trap activity — bring multiple box traps, watch the respawns, and be ready to relocate if the spot gets crowded. If you prefer a safer route, you can always buy chinchompas on the Grand Exchange to skip the stress of Wilderness or crowded farming spots. Personally, I like combining a little hunting in Feldip with a bit of market-checking; it keeps the grind interesting and my bank topped up. Give it a try and enjoy the satisfying clack of a boxed chinchompa — it’s oddly addictive.
Hunting chinchompas in 'Old School RuneScape' usually ends with the same handful of goodies in your inventory. When you kill a chinchompa-type creature you most commonly get a raw chinchompa (the item people use as ranged ammo), plus bones from the corpse. Beyond those two staples you'll often see small coin drops and the usual low-value junk — think seeds, low-tier herbs or rune shards that any low-level monster might yield. There’s also a chance for oddball drops like a clue scroll or a slightly rarer seed, but those are infrequent.
If you care about efficiency, remember that most players actually catch chinchompas with box traps via Hunter rather than slaughtering them; catching gives you live or raw chinchompas directly and is usually the best way to farm the item if that's your goal. Killing them is more of a combat interaction and sells mainly the bones and the occasional raw chinchompa. Overall, expect bones and raw chinchompa as the defaults, with little extras peppered in — still fun to see the occasional surprise loot, honestly.
