Saradomin's Encampment Guide

[SirTommy2005]

o naise u gud

 

 

 

also nice 12 sara hilts :o

 

haha thanks, ive missed another 5 from either having to log during trip, or not getting the drop on ls -.-' ohwell

 

 

 

 

 

also, a few little tips and tricks ive picked up over time for sara

 

 

 

*even if using a healing familiar at zil, bring a terror bird aswell, have it hold 2 pots [replace for the tele runes] and keep it summoned while getting kc; if you get a rune or d boots drop, you can store pots in the bird and pick up the drop, once you have 40 kc, dismiss the bird at the top of the rope, run down, drop a few pouches/pots, get the items from bird, run down, summon a familiar to save space, pick up what u can, and drop a super rest if you need to to make space.

 

 

 

*if you have a zamorak godsword, lend it to friends/team mates with the time set as TILL LOGOUT so your teammate can spec. after the spec, regardless of if it freezes or not, use on the owner to return. if you have 2 zgs'ers, still lend them out. more specs the better

 

 

 

*if using a healer and purple sweets are getting too expensive, it is possible to avoid using them in a team of 3 or more. when zil is going after you, turn off your run once 2+ sq's ahead of her; she cant catch up. by the time you reach a wall she should be on someone else.

 

 

 

 

 

Narb you took my idea.

 

Btw, nice guide. ;)

ive been doing that for ages, like months before i joined gwda :P not your idea, lol.

Such a great in depth guide. I just got 99 range so i plan on trying this out as soon as i get 70 agilty. Ive always liked bosses that aren't the standard attack and eat till dead, so this should be perfect for me.

[Artemis1330]

Try solo :D It's not like soloing any other boss :)

[Abe]

Maybe update this a little? the pictures and movies are out-of-date :thumbdown:

[Rimy_Penguin]

Nice guide. Makes me want to go back to sgw.

[someguy798]

Really nice guide, it got me started in the soloing business. I can thank you for gaining 14M from 3 ss's (lag killed me once and knocked off an ss's worth of loot =C) I especially like how you can always alter your strategy just a little bit to improve your performance at Zilyana. I've personally been able to pull off 12 kills in a trip, without filling up a terrorbird. Anyways, here's a few handy tips I think you could add for those wishing to solo her:

 

 

 

1. Don't hug the north wall when doing the run method. This will keep Starlight following you, and eliminate one hit per lap around the room. This alone can give you an extra kill per trip.

 

 

 

2. When you get more comfortable with soloing, use the accurate style of ranging. It helps a surprising amount, just keep in mind you cut it thinner with her hits. In particular, if you're following tip 1, it's hard to pull off accurate on the altar side. To make it easier, switch to rapid when you reach a corner t that side, then switch back once you make it to the other corner.

 

 

 

3. You can still take advantage of the altar while soloing. If you kill off bree and growler, and run to the altar before starlight catches up to you, you can pull of the prayer. If you can't kill both in time for the respawn, weaken both half hp one kill, then finish them off the next.

 

 

 

4. If you can't range bree without moving off the north wall, you can still avoid damage from both growler and bree. Depending on when their attacks come from, you can switch between protect from mage and range, and protect from both attacks while killing off starlight. The prayer needs to be on when the attack leaves them, not when it hits you.

Such a very wonderful guide, although I'm afraid to say I'm not doing very well though, bad at dodging and keep taking her hits, rol'd out, I laughed. First 'trip' I got wtfpwnt by lagging out at 14hps, 3 items in fally -.-.

 

 

 

I guess I'll join a team next time, I dunno, I need pratice dangit.

[mujammil]

Epic guide 10/10.

 

 

 

Could include a Duo video since the update it's completely different now.

[AnthonyWL]

Great guide! 9/10! =D>

 

 

 

Sadly after the update (12:30 Wednesday 10th June 2009, AEST) this is almost obsolete as now the Chamber is 1/2 the size and you cannot eat while running. :cry:

[Patr1ck]

:( Once again jagex has [bleeped] up Sara gwd. I managed 2 kills solo, and the old method of running in teams is highly inefficient now, gotta find a better way. :cry:

[Assume Nothing]

Jagex wanted to bump up prices of my recently bought SS, is that not okay?? ;_;

 

 

 

I don't think sara is a good boss anymore -.-

[walka92]

team hasnt changed much, except for u cant get the minis off anymore. still pretty much same now

[Myrincreu]

The room being smaller definitely makes anything pertaining to range alot harder, being able to get in 1 shot with a rune cbow per wall you run along instead of 2. Just Jagex making a deadly boss even deadlier, I guess >.

[Serpknight]

extermly good guide 11/10,mind updating the pics though and adding a section for titans for ppl who have 79 summon but not 88?

[aerendil]

lol, i think you need to update,what with jagex's stupid new run update(well, making the wall is stupid anyway...)

 

 

 

good guide, ill be using it as soon as i get 70 agil, also, all your videos take me to somewhere taht is DEFINETLY NOT A GWD VID! :D

 

 

 

anyway, gj, meamzed

[Beest1942]

This guide makes me wanna get 70 agi (and some range lvls) :x

 

One small note:

At the beginning of the guide, you say ZGS would be best (cause of the freezing spec), but when you get in depth on melee you say that SGS/AGS would be best.

Just pointing out, very nice guide none the less.

Do you need a rope if you haven't been Sara before (I've been in godwars before but not Sara yet)?

And also, are familiars still unable to go down with you (need to be resummoned)?

Yes and yes.

 

You need to bring two ropes if you've never been to the Saradomin area before.

[swordfight]

I <3: you! Got a hilt on my first run with three way veracs. 19m split.

 

Very well laid out, easy to understand guide :thumbsup:

 

10/10

[Hav0c0wnz]

do you think i could use rapier instead of a godsword on her?

[ghjkl]

no she will melee you too much in solo

and teaming sara is terrible money

in fact sara is terrible money overall
