Thanks for the great guide! Got to Jad on my 1st try no problem but failed prayer switching completely and died in 2 hits. Well, time to try again :wall:

somehow the 90's hit me every two hits when i got to 360... when praying against mage and taking hits upto 11 every 3 seconds... didn't last long...

This guide is the business! Stats as follows:

 

 

 

Died a couple of times in the middle rounds by bringing ahrims instead of karils (how stupid did I feel when I realised!)

 

Died a couple of times by lagging out.

 

Died a couple of times by forgetting to put mage prayer back on when I was trying to save prayer.

 

Died once by accidentally double hitting log out when I meant to only hit it once.

 

Made it to Jad four times.

 

First time, died as soon as I saw the healers (was still trying to get the hang of prayer switching - it really is worth practicing)

 

Second time, (just missed a prayer switch having attracted the attention of all the healers)

 

Third time, was trying to get the hang of repotting between prayer switches and um missed one :)

 

Fourth time, defeated Jad with one health left (now that was lucky!)

 

 

 

Only suggestions to emphasise in this excellent guide:

 

 

 

You should definitely take enhanced excallibur with you. It basically means (when combined with guthans) you don't need to use and sardomin brews until Jad and is worth way more than the one brew space it uses up.

 

 

 

If you're feeling harrassed during the pre-Jad rounds, you can use the logout feature to give you space to repot or reheal, wait for your excallibur special bar to refill enough to use. just click logout once during round and then make sure you're in combat with one of the creatures at the end of the round. This way it doesn't log you out and it doesn't start the next round. You have a good length of time to sort yourself out before logging out properly.

 

 

 

Good luck to all who try it!

How long does it take for the next wave to come after you hit the logout button?

I finally got it after my 8th try! :thumbsup: Thanks so much for this awesome guide. The healers always used to screw me up, and the last two times they spawned at least 4 times -.- But somehow this time I managed to get past the healers and kill Jad! I'm so happy, wanted this cape since it came out :D

thanks for the help! got it on my second try thanks to this and the prayer switching guide you had a link to! thanks!

Cape #2

 

 

 

 

Cape #3

 

 

 

 

 

 

For my 3rd cape, I decided to use Dark bow for the 360 and 90 waves, to 1-hit the 90s, and used Obsidian rings for the 90s and below. They work extremely well for anybody who wants to try.

Excellent guide : I'll give this a try when I'm higher leveled, but I will definitely leave a bookmark with this for my first try. I suppose that the two crystal bow's is for the crystal bow trick, or is it just for the extensive amount of ammunition used?

 

 

 

9/10

One bow for the the first 50-55 waves or so, 2nd for the last 10.

Hey Scott, Does the Crystal Bow Charge trick still work? If so you should try to explain that to people. Then they will always have a full bow for killing with. :)

 

That's how I did it, and how I DK'ed.

It still works, but I always seem to lose track of how many shot i've fired...

You could add a section on how to stop being nervous xD

 

 

 

I'm about to do my 5th(alching and pking in them ftw) and even though I have done my last 4 capes without dying or even failing to switch pray(got meleed twice though), I'm still kind of nervous :P

i was doing the guthans set up mostly with maybe a few minor changes but mostly the same. i was doing fine throughout the waves healing when needed and all but when i reached the 360's i ran into a problem; i was using my p pots too fast. i has into about wave 35 or so when i decided it would be best to quit since i was using 2-3 doses per 360 and knew i would never reach jad. i have 52 prayer and 75 range. any ideas or tips?

what would be advised?

Better gear or higher level. Or switch out your prayer for ranged or vis versa?

I've recently come to the realization that I [bleeping] suck at Fight Caves. Here's the figures of my attempts...

 

 

 

Jad: 17

 

Me: 0

 

 

 

I'm a pro, aren't I? Maybe you or murder21 could lend me your wisdom on this matter sometime :wall:. I'm gonna be an example to people who lose the first time and give up. I've lost 17 times, and i've decided to put everything, in Runescape that I had planned for summer, that includes a few 99's, until I get this elusive cape. IF I ever manage to win, I will certainly post here.

I felt the same way when I lost 7 times in a row. It's not nearly as bad, but kinda similar. Don't concentrate too much on getting a fire cape, but just surviving on Jad and damaging him. If you get too worked up on the fire cape, and start thinking "Omg, I'm so close!" you'll lose concentration. This helped me kill him eventually, because I just put my entire concentration on defeating him.

first try thanks to this guide

 

 

i love you

Nice guide, I plan on going for it sometimes soon. Before that, Ill probably memorize this guide out of fear of dieing at Jad :ohnoes:

 

On my first try, right when I killed the last 360, the phone rang, at my dad was yelling at me to get it. I just get back to the compter in time to see me get hit with a 72 and die :cry:

nice guide 10/10, but I think you should add a section for void range to it, or if that isn't a good option I feel dumb because I've tried like 5 times so far failing before jad from lag or random mistakes. but I get to around the high 50's before I fail out and void hits pretty decent for me.

I think you used to have a pure setup pic listed.. where'd it go?

Good guide, but shouldn't you include Enhanced Excalibur? :D

There's been a ton of new items released since I last updated the guide, but people have been doing a good job of using their own judgment when it comes to those things, w/o my consultation. For things like the Fally shield 3 and the enhanced excalibur, I usually just think that if people have enough experience to have obtained those items, chances are they've already got good enough stats and/or equipment to get to Jad w/o too much trouble. Also the new items make it easier and easier to get to Jad - most people make it to Jad on their first try. As long as they do that, they don't need to reconfigure their setups... Rather, they usually just need to practice controlling their nerves and mastering prayer-switching.
