Yeah, it's not bad if you legit it (and chat every 15-60 minutes). Most people report the level 3s--especially the ones deathwalking. The deathwalk sucks because they WALK back to falador rather than teletab.
You're pretty guaranteed to die because they can 1-hit you, but if you have a good enough agility level to always be running, you'll be fine. A death every hour or so.
