Corporeal Beast Guide

[totalpwnage]

Melee does more damage. You usually need to do about like 500-600 damage to get a kill in an FFA -- ruby bolts will NOT spec that much. Rangers rarely get the kill, same with hybrids. In the time it takes to get 1 ruby bolt spec, someone else will easily do over 150 damage with zammy spear.

[Artemis1330]

Yes, melee does get more kills. Most of the time, the people that range in ffa do so to use their Divine or Elysian shields. Range also has the benefit of being much much safer, and takes much less concentration. Quite often, players with lower melee stats will range as well.

 

 

 

Range is effective, but melee is just faster.

 

 

 

 

 

All of my gear/invos are more like suggestions, you can modify them as you wish obviously. As for fury or glory, it makes no difference at all. They have the exact same attack stats. The Beast ignores def, so the def bonus of fury doesnt matter. You are not meleeing, so str bonus doesnt matter, and +2 prayer is hardly worth arguing over. As for archer ring, I like it for its +4 range. Take a Wealth if you want :P

Updated to reflect the recent karambwan nerf.

This guide was voted into the AoW over a week ago, but no-one has seemed to promote it yet. :oops: On behalf of the PMG team, congratulations! \

[Artemis1330]

Sw00t nice :)

Welfare is the way to go!

Nice guide, I should do that quest sometime :oops:

It's Corporal, isn't it?

 

 

corporeal

 

Pronunciation: \k?r-?p?r-?-?l\

 

Function: adjective

 

Etymology: Middle English, from Latin corporeus of the body, from corpor-, corpus

 

Date: 15th century

 

1: having, consisting of, or relating to a physical material body: as a: not spiritual b: not immaterial or intangible

 

 

 

corporal

 

Function: noun

 

Etymology: Middle French, lowest noncommissioned officer, alteration of caporal, from Old Italian caporale, from capo head, from Latin caput more at head

 

Date: 1579

 

: a noncommissioned officer ranking in the army above a private first class and below a sergeant and in the marine corps above a lance corporal and below a sergeant

 

 

 

Somehow I think the one having to do with state-of-being and tangibility is more applicable than army rank :lol:

When doing Free for all, your in a clan chat, but LS is not on?

[warrior5024]

I know this question continues to pop-up while I'm around, but how does magic, specifically smoke barrage, work against the Corporeal? I don't care about costs, I just want to know if it is on par with Melee.

 

 

 

Great guide, and poor Paul Rat for dying in the video.

[VeeGod]

 

You can't 2-4 man it anymore. Yes, you can still use the door thing, but it's slow, dangerous, and just a waste of time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think you can 2/4 man it, and i'm 100% sure about it. Now I'm not saying it's going to be easy, but I know you can.

 

 

 

[Zekei]

It might be wise to swap only the items you know you would lose (i.e. if you would have a berserker ring protected through item protect + 3 standard, swap the zamorak spear, and if you would keep both swap something else, and if you would keep neither swap the one with the higher value etc...) because in some of those pictures you would keep items that were lent to you when it wouldn't matter if you kept or lost it.

 

 

 

That might be a bit confusing so:

 

If you would keep an item when you died don't swap that one, swap one you know you would lose.

[Zekei]

When doing Free for all, your in a clan chat, but LS is not on?

 

Yeah they might just be using the clan chat to be able to communicate easier, and not using LS just because thats how they want to do it.

 

And you would enforce the FFA rules by getting a team, just that you choose not to use the LS / CS rules to split up the loot.

A useful guide, it's persuaded me to do some over the summer I think. Out of interest, I notice lots of people type numbers (i.e. 367) while killing it, is this how much they hit or what?

They're typing out their hp experience before and after- HP exp gained = damage dealt. Helps them figure out who did the most damage and got the drop.

[Maulmachine]

I have a bunch of things to add. For one you suggest using dragon boots, this is not ALWAYS necessary. For example, dragon boots don't boost my max hit at corp when compared climbing boots.The next thing that I'd like to add is to your inventory. You suggest using a bone dagger,right? I think that a darklight is far better to use. It reduces the beast's defense and it is the recommended item from most teams that I have been on. I also recommend that rangers bring stunning bolts to stun the core.(Emmy(e) I believe). Additionally, rangers can also wear a spectral spirit shield. This is a very effective shield for rangers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To the person who asked, magic is quite ineffective.

[mweddle]

Exelent guide! :thumbsup: =D> I used ur guide to do my first ever solo at the cb! I am full of hawtness

[jakerules208]

Great guide I plan on trying out some corp masses using this.

 

 

 

but I can't change my re-spawn to Cammy, does that require a quest or achievement diary?

this is inaccurate however as damage = 1.3 hp experience.

The new Ardounge cape 3 has +6 stab attack, +6 mage defence, and +6 prayer bonus I'm not sure if that out weighs the +4 strength bonus from the fire cape but it certainly seems better then a skill cape for the corporeal beast.

 

Awesome guide btw :smile:

[Cantristenon]

Ardougne cape also gives you unlimited teles to altar for recharging prayer. :)

Oh ya forgot about that I just wish it did unlimited teles to ardy farm without doing elite tasks :sad:

[Draconic]

I'd say Ardy Cape 3 is now the best cape for AT LEAST cs/ls. Not sure if +6 stab is better than +4 str for FFA.

 

It's also far less risk than a Lava Cape. It's free!

[mweddle]

Amazing 10/10

[Ambler]

I managed to get a few drops in a FFA trip, as im VERY lucky with ruby specs (got about 2-5 every kill!) :D also good guide, you should add 'welfare setups' aswell though.
