October 8, 200520 yr nice try mahat mind adding me in rs for a few? i got couple questions i got to the last two 360s appears at same time and i ran out of pray pot and i had 8 sharks and i was using addy arrows + shortbow lmao :lol:
October 8, 200520 yr very nice mahatma... as for anyone else who is going to test their luck doing it the same way as him (switching prayers back and forth) Would you even bother killing the healers? Switching prayers and clicking the many healers seems like trouble and confusing. Possible to just forget about the healers and go all out on him whilst switching prayers?
October 8, 200520 yr is it possible to use mage atks instead of range :s or does magic hit worse then range? thx in advance.
October 8, 200520 yr I suggest keeping Range protect on as the "default prayer." While you're fighting the boss, switch to range protect right after the magic attack, and keep range on after a range attack. This way, you allow yourself more time to switch to mage (if needed) right when you see the delay in the attack animation. If this confuses anyone, I'll try to elaborate furthur. This method seems pretty failproof to me; I'll try it as soon as I gather some more bolts and range potions.
October 8, 200520 yr I don't have gunthans so after i make some more prayer pots i'm gonna try using halberd/range and like 20 prayer pots(for 90's plus) with 5-6 sharks for boss.
October 8, 200520 yr grrrr i got to the 702 and had lots of trouble with the safe spot he got stuck behind the wall in front of it and it wasnt working

October 9, 200520 yr Im about to go give ice barrage a try with the healers. Im going to first try casting on the boss since it SHOULD hit them all since they're around him, but they may be too far from the centerpoint of the casting. Ill try luring them to me after that and killing them all at once.. If i can get the healers outta the way quickly then I should have no problems with the boss. I did hear that magic doesn't hit well at all on the monsters. It might work OK on the 108s.. has anyone tried maging them yet?

Can I just say thankyou for that video, it'll help me ALOT when(or IF) I get up to the 702 :wink:
October 9, 200520 yr from the guide where you run from end of shoe on map to safe spot (for 702).. i think u have to let it follow u a bit so it doesnt get stuck on the wall. so run to a spot wide from the safespot so the 702 comes at u then run to safe spot, that way 702 doesnt get stuck on wall. Died 3 times now cos it kept getting stuck :\
October 9, 200520 yr I am so fed up with this stupid 702, twice he was ready to die and TWICE I get a breif interuption of lag when the 3rd round of healers were coming (maybe 2-3 seconds of lag) and that's all he needs to change up his attacks and one hit me. Both times i was doing so well, 7 (4 dose) prayer pots left and 6 sharks it's so far past the point of seeing if I am capable of doing it, because I know I am.. it's all about wanting this ugly cape to show for it!. AYE CARUMBA this is stressful. Is the cape really worth doing another 2 hours of this to whoever has one? And a little reccomendation about the healers, if you shot them all once they line up to you and you can can shoot the big guy without them healing him. As long as you are strong enough to be taking the hit from one of them whilst doing this. And slowly you can just start picking them off if you wish.

I can take half health away from the 702 in 30 seconds. Are you sure they stop healing him when they line up? Cause if they do, i got a very easy fight ahead of me.
October 9, 200520 yr No, nothing is for certain. It may have been the position they were in, but they sure as hell weren't making any emote that looks like they were healing him. They were healing themselves as far as I could see. I'll try it again tomorrow and see if I can confirm this.
October 9, 200520 yr SAFE SPOT *** Remember kids, bug abuse while you can! This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.
October 9, 200520 yr Thanks for the video Mahatma, that lets me know what to expect. I was worried that he attacks faster than that, this shows you at least have some time to switch. The way your mouse moves shows you were pretty nervous, when I get there I know my heart will be pounding away too.
October 9, 200520 yr I tried the prayer switching. It was working great until the healers came, and I attacked one to make him stop healing. When the healer came to me, he hit an 11, I panicked, and that's when my "prayer switching rhythm" was disrupted. The end result is obvious. And yeah, right when I got to the boss, I was pretty nervous and was feeling numbed. It really is disappointing when you die after an hour and a half's worth of killing the previous enemies. I'll try again later tonight or tomorrow. This boss fighting really does take a lot out of me :P
October 9, 200520 yr What happened to Markkei is exactly what happened to me. I had the right prayers on for the start, then healers came. It seems like they had him fully healed after just a few seconds. I tried to kill healers, but between killing healers and changing prayers I didn't do either job well. Do healers keep coming at a fixed rate, or do they only come a few times? If they never stop coming, I don't feel like I could kill them fast enough to win that fight. Ever. How many people have actually killed it without the safe spot? I'm guessing none.
October 10, 200520 yr I've been doing this all day, so far haven't even got to the 360s, but I think this trip i'll get to them I've been hallying the 180s in the "boot" safe spots edit-k one of the ranging 90s picked me off :( I had 30 hp left and no food lol, then after killing a 180, another 180, a 90 and a 45 came... and I died lol. I've been going in with just food lol, i love that place 100% noob since 2001

You cannot rely on food at all until the boss fight, or for emergency healing.
October 10, 200520 yr *sigh*, another 2 hours wasted.. keep getting melee'd trying to range the healers.. even on long range I tend to mess up now and then. Is Killing the healers absolutely necessary? I know it makes him easier, but trying to muscle my way seems so much less stressful and easy to just sit there and range him instead of trying to peg them all off. How much do they heal him anyway?

Alot you need to kill the healers to kill him. Heres a screenie of me doing it without a safespot. My mini-guide -- ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- Starting As soon as the boss spawns you should already be fully potted, and have the weapon you will be killing it with equiped with ammo, etc. Position your camera towards the front of the boss so that you can see its front legs. Attack the boss ---------------------------------------------------- Switching Prayers When it attacks with range it will lift its front paws high, then stomp down quick. As soon as you see it stomping down quick then TURN PROTECT FROM RANGE ON (if its not already on) When it attacks with mage it will left its front paws a BIT lower then what it it does with range. It will leave them in the air a for a bit then come down and shoot a mage attack at you. --- After you see that the monster is not stomping down quickly turn on protect from magic (if its not already on) ---------------------------------------------------- Healers After the monster gets to half health 4 healers will come. They are level 108 and can hit 11s with their melee. They can also heal anything. When they spawn they do NOT spawn right next to the boss, rather the come from all over the place and start coming towards him. You will need to attack each one ONCE to get them to all attack you. After they're all attackin you.. wait until the boss starts doing a range attack, then put range prayer on and RUN your [wagon] away from the boss to where he cant reach you. The 108s SHOULD follow. Once you get out of its range start killing the 108s, then after they die go back to killing the boss. The boss MIGHT follow you, so be prepared to switch prayers from it if it does come. Repeat if other healers come. ---------------------------------------------------- (Heres Some advanced stuff that might help some people... skip this if it confuses you) When the monster has its front legs in the air, it will "shake" a bit. Not violent shaking, but the kind you would expect when you're trying to balance on your two hind legs(if you were a 4 leg animal) Now when the monster attacks range it should only shake once. When it attacks with mage it should shake several times. Eventually you learn to use the shaking as timing.
October 10, 200520 yr that sounds like an excellent idea, getting the healers to follow you and kill them off. The only downside to that is, not knowing what prayer to go running back to the 702 with could cost you your life

When he sees you he'll lift his legs to attack you.. have protect from range on and if it looks like a mage attack switch mage pray. Then you're back in buisness.
