Getting to Jad

[Umanyar]

This isnt a super complicated question really. What gear/strategy should I use to get too jad? killing him wont be an issue due to my fancy new instakill darts (GF Nomad). I would prefer to range, since I have full arma (chest and skirt) but what about ammo and inv and stuff like that?

I just use broad bolts for the fight caves leading up to Jad and then switch to diamonds once I get to him. I'd bring 6-8 sara brews, 4 super restores, an EE if you have it, the diamond bolts, 2-3 range potions and maybe a whip for the earlier waves. Then fill the rest of your inventory with prayer potions (10-15). Prayer really shouldn't be too much of an issue.

 

For getting up to Jad always kill the 22s first if they're attacking you because they drain prayer and then then 90s, especially in later waves because you'll consistently be praying mage and they'll be dealing a fair bit of damage, while trying to safe spot the 180s. Avoid going into melee range of the 360s because they hit hard and just kill the 180s by safe spotting them. Even if you have to tank the 180s while killing the 90s and 22s it's not really a big deal, you should have plenty of regen from the brews and EE if you bring them.

 

Good luck.

Although I'd still recommend that you use Ganodermics with Polypore staff, even with the insta-kill dart, Jad has a possibility to one hit KO you if you ranged, since you still have to survive at the very least first hit if you cannot see jad. Wearing Ganodermics while praying ranged makes it impossible, if not very unlikely, that he will be able to kill you first hit.

 

I recommended polypore staff because it is simply much faster than using Broad bolts.

Standing in the SW alcove traps Jad in all spawns aside from the one next to you, which is no problem because you will be able to pray accordingly when he first attacks.

I'd highly recommend ganodermic + polypore, it's faster than range, fairly cheap to do and has good survivability.

 

As long as u use mage pray on 360s and trap 180s the only issue damage wise comes from the 90s but as u don't have to worry about surviving Jad you can guzzle brews etc.

 

Plus it makes it near impossible for Jad to kill you in the first hit because he will get 1 attack in. He usually starts with ranged so you pray that, but sometimes he does mage but the mage absorb of gano means you don't get hit hard enough to be koed
