Rushing Jad

[homer205]

I've currently got Jad as my slayer task and after my failed attempt at the traditional ranging/prayer switching I'm hoping to be able to rush him with claws etc. I didn't have any issues getting to jad, just the final fight.

My relevant stats when I attempt this will be:

97 attack

97 strength

96 defence

98 hitpoints

92 prayer

88 range

94 magic

High enough herblore for extreme attack/strength but not overloads.

 

Because I don't have the level for turmoil (nor the cash for it) would I be better off using piety for the higher boosts or soul split for the healing?

 

I should prepare the following way correct?:

1. Position last 360, brew, super restore, kill 360

2. Safespot jad, cast vengeance, rebrew/restore if needed, extreme potions

3. Wait remainder of 30 seconds(?) for second vengeance cast

4. Equip claws, ready specials and prayer

5. Run out and spec, recast vengeance, spec

 

Then if he's not dead what do I do? Switch to a melee weapon (would be a whip), retreat and try again if healers aren't present, or back up and try ranging him to death?

 

I don't have much in the way of strength gear (no bandos). I could get a torso easily if it would make a significant difference, other than that probably just a fury, dragon boots, and fsh.

 

What are my odds of success with this method?

I'd totally get turmoil for that, it's only 3 levels after all.

 

Otherwise, looks good. I'd recommend you melee the caves, saves you from carrying range gear.

 

I think you could try whipping after claws, yes.

If he is behind Italy, I strongly recommend some hits from range before you rush. Make him go down to 75% hp or so before you rush because w/o turmoil, it just isnt as good.

Aye that works, too. But still, get turmoil.

Thanks for the quick replies, turmoil is simply out of my price range right now, all of my cash is being spent on getting the extremes. I'll try to range him a little beforehand to avoid getting stuck with healers. One of the things I'm least sure of is piety or soulsplit+the leeches if I don't have turmoil?

Piety

What do you mean the leeches? You mean healers?

Piety

What do you mean the leeches? You mean healers?

I think he means the leech prayers.

I think he means the leech prayers.

I do indeed, +5% boosts, raising to +10% over time.

Use your 1st veng cast during the last 360 wave ideally at start of it (the 360 have no chance to hit you right ?). Be ready for any Jad spawn, you are rushing it, not positionning it for a long fight. Rest of things is pretty easy. Claw spec, veng, Claw spec, finish with whip. Pray to RNG God for good veng hits, bad regular ones.

 

I got him on task brute force too, with first claw spec not even hitting, and first veng being a pathetic 48 lol. So it must be possible without turmoil/bandos. Soul split is mandatory, you cant brew if you don't use overloads (i didnt ovl either).
