Desert Achievements in RuneScape!

I've done most of the Achievements for the Desert area excluding the Dominion Tower tasks... A few things I'm was stuck on, and had seen others stuck on are 1. Kookookachat - Talk to Khoochak about a quest (easy), 2. Ug Thankee Kindly - Make an Ugthanki kebab from raw ingredients in Nardah (hard), 3. Say it, Don't Spray It - Hear one of Ali the camel's poem's using a fully featured cramulet (hard), 4. A, B, Chitara - Play the Holy Cithara while standing in the Citharede Abbey (elite), 5 Staff of Stryke - Kill a Desert strykewyrm wearing a fully charged slayer helmet and wielding an ancient staff (elite), and finally 6. Ankle Support - Wear the ankh and Scabaras mask while in the desert (elite).

Here's some things I found in order to finish that may be of help to you:

1. Kookookachat - I couldn't find Khoochak at all. I finally found him inside the Al Kharid palace in the main room.

2. Ug Thankee Kindly - **NOTE - MAKE SURE YOU USE THE ONION ON THE BOWL FIRST AND NOT THE TOMATO** Okay, that being said you need the following materials: onion, tomato, bowl, knife (if you don't have one on your toolbelt), ugthanki meat (raw), pot of flower, jug or bucket of water. Take all materials to Nardah (if you have the medium necklace you can teleport there easy by right clicking on it and teleport). Use the onion on the bowl, then right click the tomato and use that on the bowl, then cook the ugthanki meat on the clay oven in Nardah, right click the ugthanki meat and use it on the bowl, use the water on the flour and make pitta dough, use the dough on the clay oven, use the pitta bread on the bowl and voila! You're done!

3. Say it, Don't Spray it - Some people were having a hard time getting this task done. First off, you need a FULL Cramulet - Ghostspeak ammy, Camulet, Monkeyspeak ammy, and the Catspeak ammy all combined into that Cramulet. The first time you speak to Ali the Camel (He's right next to the bank) insult him... after you stop him from reciting his poem, talk to him again and listen to one of his poems (I chose the second poem, I'm sure it'll work with the first poem too)

4. A, B, Chitara - THIS... WAS... A PAIN!!! In order to get the Cithara, you'll need to NOT be on curses, you'll need to me in the NORMAL mage book, you'll need the cramulet if you haven't gotten the Mortayna legs 3 or higher. In addition, you'll need 6 or more Saradomin equipment. I used the Citharede top, bottom, hood, symbol, as well as the Illuminated book, and a Saradomin Arrow. I'm not too sure if the arrow works, but the Wiki says it does.

5. Staff of Stryke - This one wasn't too bad... for the longest time I could never figure out how to charge the slayer helm. It's super easy, you can take a combat type summon scroll like "Howl", Dreadfowl Strike", etc. Once you have this in the full slayer helmet (this includes the Focus sight and Hexcrest), take an Ancient staff (either yours or borrowed) and investigate mound over at the Desert Strykewyrms. Their weakness is stab, so be prepared for a long haul when fighting with Ancient staff. I've been trying to figure out if the Ancient staff has a stab bonus, but all I see is magic...

6. Ankle Support - This wasn't hard to do, it was just a pain to remember... and find... You'll need to go to two separate places in order to get the ankh and the Scabaras mask. The Ankh is at the Monkey Colony pictured below. You'll see on the cliff a crack or crevace on the side of the cliff. You may need to rotate your camera in order to see it

 And the Scarabas mask is accessible through the Kalphite Nursery shown below:



I'm currently working on my very last two. Both are Dominion Tower tasks. I have to beat Sunfreet (the best way to beat him is mage btw... I'm SOOOO CLOSE!), and then have to get all the other achievements... if you're stuck on anything post a comment below, I'll be more than happy to help out!
