tormented demons/glacors advice


Zeno

Recommended Posts

So I've been doing glacors and tormented demons a lot recently, and I just want to check on a couple of things to see if I'm doing it right

 

Stats are in my signature

 

I don't want to hear comments on my magic level being too low for glacors, I'm training it there and using overloads to use fire surge as of right now

 

Is there a better spot to kill tormented demons than near the entrance to the temple?

 

anyways, here is my set up

 

---

 

For tormented demons, I'm using:

[hide]

void with a deflector (replacing the glove slot, barrows gloves)

 

rapier/polypore staff

 

soul wars cape

 

arcane stream/fury

 

dragon boots/infinity boots[/hide]

 

---

 

for glacors, I'm using:

[hide]

ahrim's top + bottom

 

neitz

 

dragon boots

 

staff of light/rapier

 

csb/dragon defender

 

berserker ring with a ring of wealth swap for the last hit

 

a soulwars cape

 

barrows gloves

 

arcane stream/fury[/hide]

 

---

 

All armor critiques are welcome, thanks in advance!

Use the tormented demon spot that best suits your comfort. I prefer the north spot myself. The TD setup seems fine. Are you using one of the lower titans? How many kph can you get with that?

 

Good luck. :)

Robes + Farseer helm + Ardougne cape are better for tds too I'm pretty sure, magic accuracy is important. You'll also gain darklight accuracy (switch fury-defender-rapier for arcstream-mage's book-pps). Otherwise, looks good.

Setups aren't bad at all. The suggestions mentioned above are good. I personally use the north spot at Tormented Demons because it's an easy lure, and if you run into trouble, there's quite a big safe spot to hide in.

dont use void for tds if you are maging

i use the southern spot with 3 spawns

but that's because i'm fast and use steel titan and summoning potions and special restores

you can probably manage only 1 spawn at a time so the entrance spot is the best for that

For Glacors I just switched from a setup similar to yours to:

 

Ahrim's Hood

Arcane Stream Necklace

Ahrim's Robe Top

Ahrim's Robe Skirt

Infinity Boots

Armadyl Battlestaff

Celestial Surgebox

Ring of Wealth

Barrows Gloves.

 

The main idea being maxing mage offense as far as possible within budget, while bringing the Staff of Armadyl into the mix.

 

Switch between fire surge for the main Glacor and SoA for the minions. Offensive familiar on sapping, spam scrolls while SoAing Enduring. If your timing and hits are good then they'll both be dead just as Unstable specs for the first time, leaving you to cast SoA once on it to k0 before changing back to Fire Surge for the Glacor. If you need a Titan for healing then SoA alone should still be significantly faster than Rapier.

 

I don't bother to lure the minions or Glacor (except Enduring, luring as far away as possible without missing SoA casts), however you still might want to try this quickly to save HP as you don't have SS.

 

Doing the above increased my kill rate from 30-35/hour to 55-60/hour. I'm sure this method would benefit you KPH wise but at a slightly higher cost.
