Dream Mentor - Ancients

[Enjay]

Hi there,

 

 

 

Just completed the boss fight sequence using ancients (mage lv 75, using blood burst for the leech HP effect), and I'd certainly recommend that over melee setup. The Inadequacy doesn't move, so stay out of it's melee range. KEEP OUT of the Everlasting's and the Untouchable's way (i.e. run in circles around it and when you're far enough away, burst it). The Illusive is very easy with Mage, stay in the middle and watch the minimap for the second yellow dot to appear.

 

 

 

May also want to add on the Untouchable's bestiary page that it's possible via Mage as well.

Hi there! I just finished Dream Mentor today on my account (cowsgraze), and wanted to make a suggestion, but I couldn't start a new topic. I also wasn't easily able to find out HOW to submit my info, so I hope you don't mind that I'm piggy backing off your topic. I wanted to complete Dream Mentor to unlock Humidify for an easier time in the desert. That was pretty difficult at 69 attack/constitution, 65 strength, 65 defence, and 69 magic without Ancients unlocked. I was able to win, however, by first melee'ing The Inadequacy with a superset, two ring of recoils, and many rocktails. After that, you can run back to a safe spot near 'Our Lives'! You run back as soon as possible, and you stand one square to the east of the north east corner (I believe Our Lives was in the north of the dream world). From there, you can take off your equipment, equip an air staff, and use air wave on both The Untouchable and The Everlasting. Once The Illusive comes up, he won't hit often, and you should be fine to put back on your melee armour and chase after him.

Before I go into my setup, I would like to point out that entering once and then exiting immediately affords two extra inventory spaces (replacing the tinderbox and dream potion).

 

My Setup:

{I will hopefully add a screenshot later}

Helm of Neitzinot

Glory Amulet

Obsidian Cape

Dragon Platebody

Dragon Dagger (p++)

Dragon Sq Shield

Dragon Plateskirt

Dragon Boots

Combat Bracelet

Ring of Recoil

 

My Inventory:

Seal of Passage

Super Defence (4)*

Super Strength (4)*

Super Attack (4)*

Air Staff (Air Battlestaff or a combination staff are preferable)

200 Blood Runes (fewer than 50 were used, this may vary)

Ring of Recoil

21 Rocktails

*Bringing one or two dose pots would suffice

 

Fighting the Inadequacy:

Run into melee range quickly

Drink one dose of Super Defence, Super Strength, and Super Attack

Eat a Rocktail if health is in the Orange (between yellow and red)*

Switch to Combat Styles and special attack

Special attack three more times, eating when health is in the orange

After specials are all used, switch constantly between Combat Styles, Inventory, and Worn Equipment interfaces

Special attack when available, you might use two more this fight

When one Ring of Recoil is used up, equip the second

*After eating, always click to attack The Inadequacy again, to avoid autoattacking a Doubt

 

Once The Inadequacy is dead, run back to the safespot, unequip any negative mage gear (Platebody, Plateskirt, Shield, Boots), equip your staff, and autocast your spell!

When The Everlasting appears, attack quickly to avoid him moving out of the safespot trap.

 

I didn't take a screenshot of the safespot, but I was hoping someone would.

Finally, I believe it would be of note to point that Familiars are not allowed in the dream world.

Hi Enjay Icon,

 

 

Thank you for your submission! :)

I have made changes regarding using Ancients Magicks for the boss fight in the Dream Mentor quest, and credited you.

Pope_Durban,

 

 

To answer your earlier question - you can simply create a thread in this forum to make submissions, like the OP of this thread has.

 

I was aware of a safe spot existing near the lecturn, from where ranged and magic can be used against the second and third creature.

Did you by any chance make any of those screenshots you're referring to?

 

If you did please make a thread in this forum - this thread's topic has been resolved, so it will be locked.

 

If you have any further questions, feel free to pm me.

 

 

Thanks,

Jafje.
