kingvash Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 You'll be fine, like markkei said, it does get a little scary the first time.. but after you've done it, and gotten past that wall, you'll know what to expect the next time around. I died 5 times, wasted 10 hours on this stupid cave.. oh how I wish we could just skip the 2 hours of fighting and take on ther 702. Well, but now that I have the cape, I kinda want the 702 to be harder :x oh I know that isn't very nice of me. You'll get your fill of satisfaction once you kill this guy, I guarantee you that. Don't give up! That's what he wants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markkei Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Arghh, died. Was doing pretty well too. Though I couldn't see the life of the boss. Simple switching error. I always get shaky and switch prayers, thinking it's range, when it's magic. I'll get this eventually. Once a day on weekdays, maybe more on weekends. Ugh. It didn't help that my character kept attacking the healers automatically instead of the boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingvash Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Don't use the safe spot. It's good if you get it pulled off, but it's trickey and will cost you your life. Lure the 108's away then run back to the 702, with the 108's bunched up behind you thus making them too far to heal the 702. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christs_Sldr Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Well i tried it. It was the second time I had reached the 702. I defeated the final 360 while standing in the correct location, ran and shot him once (even though he was already moving toward me) took a hit for 79 while booking it towards the safe spot. I got there, ate my sharks and sadly, the safe spot proved to be unsafe in this case :P Three or four hits later I was dead. He seemed to be using mage attacks but they went through my prayer so I suppose they were actually range unless going through pray is normal. Impaler, thank you very much for this guide. I will try again to land the spot correctly but could you please tell me where approximately he should spawn if you are standing in the correct spot? The reason I ask for this is becasue I think the safe spot may only work if he spawns in a correct spot which while more likely if you stand in a certain location may not be gaurunteed. Thanks again and hopefully you can answer this for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omegacomics Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Imapler, you are a legend. Great job. Personally, I don't think I'll ever beat that thing, you have mass kudos from me. And good guide too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Mahatma_I Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 I think the safe spot has been removed because it worked before and now it doesn't.

magix_fenix Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Safespot still works i just tried it. I failed again to kill the 702, because the healers were too far away to longrange them.

I_Mahatma_I Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Safe spot didn't work for me, this happened. P.S. I think that rumour about 90 being the max hit for it is false.

AznPrincess Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I just beat the 702 with about 16 HP left, messed up a few times but got lucky. It's really pretty cool. If you have good patience, it should be a piece of cake just as long as you know what you're doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekaggen2k Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I made a full video of me killing the 702 with the prayer switching method. It includes healer tactics and tips in it. http://s9.invisionfree.com/DamageIncorporated/index.php?showtopic=28825 I posted the links to the video on that topic, you need a guest account on DI boards to view it. If you really want to see it make one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markkei Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Thanks ekaggen. My main problem is staying calm and collected through the whole battle. Even after 3 times of fighting it, I still can't stay perfectly calm and still get ahead of myself when switching prayer. I'll try not to be so hasty when switching... I'm not sure you have to really lure the healers away from the boss, since they like healing themselves once I attack them. I could be wrong, though, since I couldn't see the boss' hp from my angle. I'm off to try it again. However, this time I'll be using Karil's x-bow against the boss instead of the crystal. Hoping the extra speed will really help.

ekaggen2k Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Well sometimes the boss gets stuck and you can concentrate fully on the healers. Plus when you run away you can relax not having the boss attacking. I had the boss stuck for a sec in the vid but i messed it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headnazgul Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I just beat the boss today, i used the pray switching method (sick of f'ing noobs saying "bug abuse!! you used a safe spot!! blah blah blah!!" even though i didnt :x ) but one thing i found worked well was shooting each healer just once so they would stop healing the boss and go after me but still be alive so more healers wouldnt come, then the boss was free to kill.

krn_godess Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 what is that switching method? is it to put on range all the time and switch to mage when it needs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leesters Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 what is that switching method? is it to put on range all the time and switch to mage when it needs? It means switching to the appropriate prayer by the boss's pre-attack routine. The range attack comes alot faster... ppl are getting toasted switching to range too slow. I'm gonna use the suggestion of always keeping it on range, and then when he does his long pre-attack stance, you know its mage and can switch in time. A circus in Runescape?? Oh my.

sk8ermike911 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Great guide impaler, helped me a ton in getting a cape. The only part that you should explain a little bit clearer is the pre-attack style. If he is going to use a magic attack. He both of his front legs up in the air as he does with the ranged attack, but he will NOT stomp his feet down. He will put them down as the magic attack hits you. If he is going to use a ranged attack. He will lift up both of his front legs as he does with the magic one, but HE WILL STOMP both of his feet hard onto the ground. Making a rock fall on your from the ceiling. The method I used was to keep the protect from magic prayer on, if I saw him stomp his feet on the ground, I switched to protect from ranged as soon as I saw it, then switched back to magic protect. This monster does not attack as quickly as regular monsters. It gives you time to heal or use a prayer potion, with alot of time to spare to switch prayers. When the healers come, DO NOT kill them. If you kill them then he just summons more waves. Attack each of the healers so that they become hostile towards you and they won't heal him anymore. Then run about 4 to 6 steps either way except towards that big 702 so that they form a line and only one healer attacks you. Then just keep on ranging the 702 and watching your prayer and hp, eat if you need. The one healer won't damage you much and you'll soon have a fire cape of your own.

Leesters Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 wat happens if u dont have full guthan can u use torag?? with whip and sq Full Guthan restores your hitpoints that you will lose. You need all your pray and food for the 360's stage of the wave. You have to get through the 180's with no damage, no food spent, and minimal pray pots used. And the safe spot I use for hiding from the 180's doesn't work anymore. He walks right around the corner and those dudes do serious damage. No way to do it without Guthan, as I see it.
