Fixed. Now, that would also assume Jagex already has the software capable of detecting them... Which they don't.

After our luck yesterday, was feeling a tad bit lucky again tonight... As you can tell, I was thrilled to get the drop. Neat.

Per Ardua ad Astra - "Through Adversity to the Stars" Ardent Souls Ardent Souls is a clan chat with one purpose; to have fun. We were formed the day Soul Wars was released, but have since moved on from the mini-game to branch out to the rest of RuneScape. We do many daily activities from bosses to mini-games. Our boss trips always yield huge profits and our other events prove to be an awesome time! So if you're looking for a clan chat to join, even as a guest, to do Tormented Demons, Bandos, Corporeal Beast... Or damn near anything else you can think of, feel free to pop in! We have no requirements simply because of the range of activities that we do! And if that's not enough for you... Each month we select random members who have helped with our citadel, and us leaders give them each a list of drops from our previous events or solo trips! This can be anything from Bandos Chestplates to Dragon Claws... Who knows? ;). Tormented Demons One thing that many Ardent Souls members are famous for is our Tormented Demons! We have members who have been down there slaying them daily since their release after WGS. Each who know secret tactics and strategies that to this day are only known to us. ;). Between us we get hundreds of claws every few months, so we decided to host yet another Tormented Demon mass! The last masses have all been huge successes! Some have gone to last near 24 hours at a time! If you've got high LSP, or if you're just looking for an amazing time, you know where to go! Details Time and Date - The mass will officially begin at 5-7:00PM EST, September 25th. Often times it takes a few hours for the friends chat to fill up, but we've had a full chat on many occasions. At any time on September 25th, feel free to drop in Ardent Souls to see if we're there. You're always welcome to join us! To see what time that is for you, go to this link and type in 7:00PM for Canada - Ontario - Toronto and then select your location for the result. There is no set time that it will begin... Several of us will be there all day before hand anyways. Just join the clan chat Ardent Souls to see where we are. Lootshare - The event will be Lootshare! The friends chat used will be one of two: il_Foreva_li or il_Alwayz_li. Hope to see you there!

Somehow stumbled on this guy's video about 2 days ago. Kind of sucks that he lost his divine. In the video you can see that there probably was no way he would have been able to get his divine back. I don't think changing any settings would have had much of an effect. Weird how calm he was in his video about losing it though. Do you recall the vid name?

Your assumption is incorrect. :P. Well, not all bosses are... But I can think of a few that are.

Please tell me those are different people and not all you O_O x EiDoS x is my brother, Ardent Zach is a fellow Ardent Soul. Yup.. That's right. Lol.

gf. Change screen resolution + stretch the window vertically. Woulda had it back. :thumbup:.

Felt lucky (What else is new) so went to Bandos. And for one of my best trio Bandos trips so far (All one trip): il Alwayz li - 2x Bandos Boots, 1x Bandos Hilt, 1x Godsword Shard 2 (Just noticed while typing this... Must have missed it) x EiDoS x - 1x Bandos Chestplate Ardent Zach - 1x Bandos Tassest, 1x Godsword Shard 2, 1x Bandos Boots Funny stories: x EiDoS x sold his Bandos Chestplate to buy Turmoil - Got it back. Ardent Zach's lent Bandos Tassets were returned during the trip - Got them back. I was saying the entire trip, "Gimme my 5M Hilt!" - Got it. l Jiggs l sold her Bandos Chestplate for Turmoil - Got hers back in an earlier trip.

How much? I'm about to make my second staff. At 81 shards now. 30m, and 2nd? You're a freak sir He's the reason staffs are dropping. How long did it take for 30M? And I'm at 93 now. :P. Not sure why, but every time I seem to get close, they stop dropping the shards as often... I've done trips where I've gotten 12-14 shards. My past few trips have been 2-3? Sooooo mad. Lol. Edit 1: All today: Still just going for those last 7 shards for staff #2. Edit 2: Staff #2 made. Also got 2 more effigies getting the last 7 shards. :). So today was a good day.

How much? I'm about to make my second staff. At 81 shards now.

Quyneax, until they've had some practice (which by then a guide is not needed) and can live solely off of Soul Split, using a Steel Titan would also cost more in Saradomin Brews and isn't worth the one fire surge cast that the Steel Titan saves. I'll try it out again later and time all my kills and see just how much each saves/costs in time and GP. And thank you, Bly. I'd prefer to know of my grammar mistakes though, so I can better my work. :P.

If you wish to stay for any period of time they are. There's no point in only going for 2 overloads with normal prayers simply because the bank is so close. Steel Titan is highly ineffective (from what I've seen). I will cover melee later today, however, after therapy.

I was actually worried that it was a bit slack. There's not really much to these bosses... Simply get this guy to half LP, lure this guy, kill this one, then these 2, finish the boss. Lol.

Thanks. :D. Didn't know where they go as this is my first guide. >.<

Overview The Glacor is a powerful elemental creature first seen during the final fight of the Ritual of the Mahjarrat quest. To fight these creatures, you'll need to have finished the Ritual of the Mahjarrat quest. Glacor Basic Facts Combat Level: 475 Life points: 5000 Maximum Hit: --- Attack Style(s): All Experience Summary Although this is a boss monster, this creature is a great method of training magic as it is weak to fire spells. In comparison to other monsters, it is similar to fighting Ice Strykewyrms and Tormented Demons. This monster also has a weakness to crush. Drops Summary Glacors' average drop are fairly reasonable in comparison to other monsters, boss or not. Glacors can drop Glaiven Boots (range), Ragefire Boots (magic), and Steadfast Boots (melee). Those wishing to collect 100 Shards of Armadyl will reap the reward of the coveted Armadyl Battlestaff. Special Notes Glacors, much like Tormented Demons, switch between all 3 attack styles. Their magic and melee can hit through prayer, although not for very much; hitting 10-30 lifepoints. Fire spells or a crush weapon is greatly recommended to efficiently kill these creatures. Notable Drops Glaiven Boots, Ragefire Boots, Shards of Armadyl, Steadfast Boots. Recommended Levels The levels needed to kill Glacors is dependent on your method of attack; magic or melee. Minimum Levels 80+ Attack and Strength 90+ Magic, Overloads can be used to boost magic to use the Fire Surge spell 80+ Constitution 43+ Prayer Recommended Levels 90+ Attack and Strength 95+ Magic 90+ Constitution 43-92+ Prayer, Soul Splitting is extremely helpful against these creatures. 80+ Dungeoneering, Chaotic weapons will greatly help but are not necessary. 89-96+ Herblore Preparing for Battle You will need a variety of items to successfully hunt down Glacors. This changes depending on the method you use to kill them. They are listed below: What To Bring: Runes for fire spells - Fire Surge is greatly recommended as it will deal most damage and, depending on your level, hit upwards of 968+. Familiar pouch + scroll - Healing familiars are a must while hunting this monster. Anything from a Fire Titan to a Unicorn Stallion. Overloads > Extreme Magic - If your magic level is below 95 and you plan to Fire Surge, you can use an Overload. However, if you are under level 90 and you magic temporarily drops to 94 before rising back to 95, your auto-cast will be interrupted! Prayer Potion - Without the use of protection prayers, don't count on lasting very long at this boss! Prayer Renewals - As they slowly raise your prayer over 5 minutes, they take some of your attention off of needing to watch your prayer as often as well as give an extra 0.5 bonus over that of Super Prayers. Inventories: Beginner If you haven't got 96 Herblore or Overloads, replace overloads with Extreme Magic potions and Saradomin Brews with Rocktails. Unicorns may be replaced by any other healing familiar. Advanced As with the beginner setup, Overloads can be replaced with Magic Potions. Saradomin Brews are replaced by Soul Split. As you gain experience killing this boss, melee defense will no longer be needed. Unicorns may be replaced by any other healing familiar. Equipment: Beginners are recommended to bring melee defensive armor, since magic attack bonus has very little to do with how high you can it. Until the player learns and gets comfortable with flashing Soul Split on the Glacors, this will greatly save on the cost of Saradomin Brews and healing scrolls. Getting to the Glacors The closest bank distance-wise to Glacors is the Grand Exchange's north-west bank. This is 28 squares from the fairy ring required to get there. However, time is taken for the agility shortcut as well as an extra fairy teleport. The Zanaris bank is 44 squares away but only one teleport is needed. The fairy ring code for Glacors is DKQ. This will take you right into their lair, however these monsters are not aggressive! Strategy Keep in mind that Glacors use all attack styles. However, they will only melee if you're within range. They also have a 4th attack which causes spikes to rise from the floor, hitting you for very high damage. This 4th attack can be avoided by running to another square. If you get too close and run into melee range, he may freeze you. To escape this icicle, you'll need to spam click outside to escape. He will then hit you once more with melee. Glacor Attack Styles Magic This attack comes from the Glacor's left arm. Prayer will block most but not all of the hit/ Ranged This attack comes from the Glacor's right arm. Prayer will fully block this hit. Spikes This attack comes when the Glacor leans back and then lunges forward. There is no prayer for this attack, but you can dodge it! Starting the Fight Before starting the fight, pray magic and leech magic if you chose to. Although the Glacors mainly start the fight with magic, they will sometimes begin with a different attack style. Keep your prayer tab up and ready to switch! Luring is possible for this boss, but not at all necessary. At this stage, if you need healing, attempt flashing Soul Split between attacks. The damage is calculated when his attack reaches you as opposed to most other monsters; when they begin their attack. This makes flashing Soul Split incredibly easy with practice. The Minions When the Glacor reaches half health, it will summon 3 Glacytes. In the image below, from left to right, they are Enduring Glacyte, Sapping Glacyte, and Unstable Glacyte. Each of these minions has a special ability. The Enduring Glacyte is not aggresive. Hit it as soon as it's summoned and run as far from the boss as you can, while still in attack distance. Enduring Glacyte This Glacyte gets it's strength/defense from the nearby Glacor. This is the reason you lured it far from the boss earlier. The more distance from the boss, the weaker it gets. Sapping Glacyte This Glacyte, similar to the Tz-Kih, drains your prayer by 10-20 points with each hit. It is wise that after luring the Enduring Glacyte that you kill the Sapping Glacyte first! Unstable Glacyte This Glacyte slowly charges it's explosive attack. A second health bar will appear over it's head while it's charging. When this bar reaches full, the Glacyte will freeze (making it easy to walk 1 square away) and then explode, doing damage to anyone in the squares surrounding it. However, this will also bring the Glacyte below 100LP! If not killed immediately, it will begin to heal approximately 500LP. Even if you decide to hit it while healing, it will continue to heal until it reaches 500LP; unless you manage to out hit it. Fighting the Minions If you brought melee defensive gear, now is the time to equip it. Once you've lure the Enduring Glacyte onto you, begin attacking the Sapping Glacyte. This minion is extremely weak and easily killed. However, remember to keep an eye on the boss to watch for it switching attack styles. You can also quite easily flash Soul Split during this stage. With the Sapping Glacyte dead, you can now move on to the Enduring Glacyte. Provided the distance from the Glacor is great enough, this minion will die rather easily as well, leaving only the Unstable Glacyte. But watch out! The Unstable will be exploding any time now! Start to hit the Unstable Glacyte. This monster is killed far easier then the other minions. If he manages to get his charge bar to full, simply walk one square away and hit it immediately. It will only have 50-100LP after an explosion! Finishing the Glacor If you brought or switched to melee defensive gear, switch back to your magic gear. The important thing to note about this stage is that the Glacor gains the ability of the last killed Glacyte! This is the reason we kill the unstable last; We don't want it to have high defense or to drain our prayer! Continue to hit the Glacor while watching it's charge bar. Like the Unstable Glacyte, when this reach full, it will hit anyone in a 9x9 area for very high damage! Be sure to stay out of this area. If you've not killed the Glacor before this attack, you will only have a few hits afterward before he begins to heal; much like the Unstable Glacyte. It is unlikely that you will out-hit his healing, but if the Glacor does mange to start healing, simply keep on him (or wait if you prefer), and kill him when he finishes. Congratulations, you've just killed a Glacor! Rewards The coveted rewards from the Glacors are the Glaiven Boots, Ragefire Boots, Steadfast Boots, and Armadyl Battlestaff. Tese boots have some of the highest defense and attack bonuses in game. The Shards of Armadyl may either be crushed by the Pestle and Mortar for Armadyl Runes, or 100 may be collected to make the very expensive Armadyl Battlestaff!

Oh yes! Not sure how I missed that one. EDIT: They offer to buy them for 8,000GP.

And here's the screeny:

8+ effigies a day? I got only 9 for 100 shards, I also don't usually play 30 hours per day... Nor do I, but I kill 'em hella efficiently and if I'm on RuneScape at all, it's at Glacors or Tormented Demons. I usually get like 4 kills per overload dose. 45 shards, 5 effigies and no boots so far. You should make a guide on them. There's also a glitch that allows you to take anyone's kill any time up to the minions. Thing stops attacking them and just turns and goes after you. Not that you'd need it after or during the minions... By then the kill is theirs. Lol.

I think getting 8+ effigies a day with the odd boots and a guaranteed ABS, regardless of price, after 100 shards is pretty damn good. Beats Runecrafting...

Alright. :). I'll have him send it to me today when I get back from visiting my surgeon. He tried sending it to me last night (As a file transfer), but hadn't realized I was using Hotmail's web messenger. >.< I think it may be a new rare drop table drop though. 'Cause Glacors drop them 1-2 every trip and since they've been added, TDs have also. Jeremy, you just jelly. :P. Up for Glacors/TDs later? As much as I love Glacors, I still gotta get my TD fix/claws for the day. Got 2 yesterday. ;).
