Tormented Demons

[ExitReality]

I've heard people talking about killing TDs in one before their shield regenerates pretty consistently but I can't seem to do it, it's pretty uncommon for me to do so, maybe about 2-5 kills out of the whole trip I'll kill it before the shield comes back. Their shield usually comes back somewhere below half health or even quarter health for me.

 

Switching prayers and weapons is pretty easy to me, I do have a mess up every now and then but for the most part I'm good at it.

There's my gear, I bring more rune bolts than that not sure why I don't have much on.

And I have maxed melee and 99 range.

So.. Is it just me or is consistently killing them before their shield comes back not going to happen.

Do you have extremes/ovls or turmoil?

[ExitReality]

Yea extremes, no turmoil.

Myself, I can only manage somewhat consistent kills before their shield comes down with 1 claw spec, turmoil all the time, and steel titan. Sometimes there is a bad kill where I don't hit much, or my claws spec hasn't come back yet, so the shield gets back up again, but sometimes I can manage without the claws spec. Try to use the exp counter to know when to switch, as when they take about 310 damage (0 counts as 20 damage for this invisible counter), which is around 165 exp I believe. That and use the F keys (F1 = inventory, F3 = prayers, F5 = weapon screen to use a special attack). These two tips have helped me most I think, as the rest is just changing weapons and attacking as soon as possible.

It's pretty uncommon to kill the tormented demon without ovls or steel titans before he regenerates his shield, but if you get some lucky hits you can do it.

 

I myself always tried to get one-shielders, but I discovered that hitting the tormented demons with your darklight before he regenerates his shield is much more effective, since it reset the 'shield timer'. And essentially it remains a one-shielder ;)

Good advice if that works, could be worth having a small stopwatch/timer program open and switch to dark light after 40-50 seconds
