So I have sumona's KQ challenge. I'll be wearing full arma, full slay helm, and granite shield. My mage is 94 and def is 80. Should I pray range or mage?

Most people recommend mage - then again, most people use melee only armor. Sometimes, while solo'ing with Veracs, I've actually switched to range cos it hits higher. With Armadyl, my guess would be ditch the shield and use range pro. Maybe Zammy book or something?

Why arma? Don't you have a godsword or at least borrow 1

Hmm, well I've done this task 3 times now, and each time I fail more and more =/

The 1st time was my best, only using like 35 sharks in 2 trips, but I totally forgot what I prayed.

 

2nd task, I switched up prayer (I think) and had to do it in 3 trips =[

 

3rd task, I forgot what I did, and took 4 trips =[[[[

 

So yea, I totally forgot how I was so awesome my 1st task. But thanks for the reply, I'll consider it while waiting for more people to respond.

I'm a range tank. Stats in sig.

Itouch can't see sig sorry

so if you have curses, use range pray, leech range, and leech defence (leech Mage optional)

So if you have regular pray, pray range, eagle eye and the 15% defence

 

leave granite shield, better have nothing than that

You're standing back so she's attacking you with range and mage, both of which are very accurate, but seeing as you have a high magic defence, pray range and use unholy book or some mage def shield. Get your sum up, being able to carry more food helps a ton. Use ruby+diamond bolts if you're not already.

Er, your at least using melee for the first for, riiiiight? And considering your stats/armor, I definitely think you should stick to range pray. Although, I sometimes find switching prays up works, as she (sometimes) tends to pick an attack and stick to it for just a wee bit. But that's randomness, so who knows. I remember back when I solo'ed her a lot, I used mage pray on the first form and range pray on the second form.

 

Also, I'd reccomend using brews, since I don't think an inventory of even rock tail would be enough - and you can't use any beasts of burden, so.

I have reg pray, and I do pray those.

 

And ya, I decided to bring a zammy book instead.

Thanks, I guess the general consensus is praying range is best for me, while bringing a unholy book is better. I'll be doing task now.

 

And I'll train summ soon, just not atm. I do however have all my charms from slayer.

 

I use diamond for her 1st form, and runite for her 2nd. The reason I don't bring rubies is cuz I'm not comfortable fighting her yet, and I dont wanna spec and then she KOs me =[

Nah, I range both forms. With the addition of a focus sight, your range bonus is now high enough to hit through her prayer. Although its still faster to melee her 1st form.

 

I've never actually used brews before since I don't go bossing that often. I just don't like how it negates my pots =/ I'll try them out next time I get this challenge again. And I don't have a problem banking since I use a home glory to come back to shanty's pass? it takes like another 2 mins for another trip, so whatever.

 

I'm on my way to the KQ lair now, wish me luck :lol:

Wow, her mage attack is relentless o.O I still don't know if its better for me to pray range, because she hit almost every single time with her mage.

 

1st trip, took her down to 1/5, had to tele

2nd trip, she made me ROL =[[[[[

3rd tip, KO

 

And yea, she does stay in the same attack mode for a long time. I would try switching prays, but its so hard when you need to eat 7 times in a row :unsure:

 

KQ head (haha!) and 20 addy javs. Loot sucks, but its cool to solo a KQ head at 96 cmb :shades:

 

 

Thanks to everyone that posted here and helped me out!

My tip would be to stand beside her, even when ranging. Her melee attack fails - means she uses range/mage a bit less.

Both her mage and range attacks hit 100% of the time, it really doesn't matter.
