Assassin1357 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 It has been about 2 years since I last tried the fight caves. I messed up at Jad once the healers came out. Are there any new effective ways to do it? I have read that polypore staff and ganodermic make it rather easy. Should I bother getting curses first since they nerfed their use at Jad I believe? I have 50 mil I can spend if I will make it any easier If anyone could post a setup or link to a guide Id appreciate it. And about how long does it take nowadays with all the new prayers and items? And how do I deal with the dealers? Could I outdamage with magic or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quyneax Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Ganodermic only helps if you have trouble with prayer switching. Polypore helps in the sense that it deals more damage than a crossbow at 99 (though not if you use void w/ bakriminel/dstone bolts I should think) but your magic level isn't high enough for that. Caves take between 30 and 50 minutes depending on equipment. For you, melee would be fastest, using ranged on Jad if you can't melee him. You can't out-dps healers without a task & max stats, and even then you need claw specs to reliably out-dps all four. I'd say, get your usual max strength gear with a Soul Wars cape. Melee everything, kiting the 360s, piety+supers. For Jad, equip a crossbow, range top+bottoms, dose of ranged potion & eagle eye, runite/bakriminel bolts. When the healers come, kill three and out-dps the last.

Couldn't attack them quick enough and switch prayers while doing it. I might watch some videos on that part first then give it a shot.
