Guide to Soloing the Chaos Elemental

Lime Mercury

So, I hear you guys want dragon 2hs. No way to solo the kq anymore. I hear there's a big badass monster deep in the wild you can get it off of. A lvl 305 monster. One that can teleport your wagon wherever it wants. Can take off your armor and weapons and leaving you kicking and punching the air.

So, how can this lvl 112 solo it enough times to land up the newest weapon in the game? Let's find out.

Now, before you start drooling "AMAGAWD DRAGON 2H LOLZZZZ", here's what you need to have to make it even remotely useful to try.

Balls of steel

86 mage

70 range

40 prayer

80 hp (if you happen to be setting up the cannon while you're being attacked, you can take 60 damage without being able to eat)

The 86 mage is for Annakarl Teleport, to the greater demon area. You'll need a magic pot if your magic is 86. Mine is 87, so I use a Mind Bomb. It's cheaper.

Here's what your inventory should look like. You can substitute prayer pots for the super restores, I just happen to have more super restores, so I use those.

The first is your gear. A helmet is optional, I prefer not to be wearing an archer's helmet if I'm holding a dagger. I've considered bringing a bow and arrows to up my range attack, I prefer the dagger personally to ward off some people that like to crowd me or if I get a rogue on me every once in a while.

The second is your initial inventory. You will only need to bring the cannon once, unless it decays. You'll have ample time if you keep a move on.

The third is your inventory after you have set up the cannon.

Where do you set up the cannon?

You can set it up first if you'd like. It doesn't make much of a difference, though I usually set it up right away, I end up taking less damage.

The edge of the fence is the key. If you move two squares directly south of the spear wall's end, youll have ample room for your cannon. It should be three squares south and 1 square west from where I'm standing in the picture. The squares highlited in blue are ones that are safe when the Chaos Elemental is in the area I've circled in green.

To get the chaos elemental where you want him is the trick.

He will usually be in the area I've taken on the map, so here's what you do. Go as far west as necessary to make sure he won't get stuck in the trees at the rogue castle wall, then pull him south just far enough to get stuck in the area I've circled.

Then run towards the safe squares (through his teleports, just make sure you make it there) and set the cannon to fire as you go through.

I've found protect from range and protect from mage to be equally effective. I protect from range when I'm going to put more ammo in, since i'm in dragonhide and have the mage defense bonus.

Try to keep the cannon from depleting its ammo, since it takes two clicks rather than one if you have an empty cannon, one to reload, one to fire.

Range potting once you're in the safe squares is a good idea, you'll hit more.

Lots of the kills are crap, get used to it.

And eventually

Some problems:

1. The chaos elemental is IN the rogues area! HELP ITS KILLING ME!!!

There is a hut on the west end of the castle area. Put your cannon as close to the hut as you can, then run in and close the door. Open the door, run out, reload, run in, close the door, and continue to slay it until it's done.

2. The chaos elemental went around the trees now its coming at the entrance to the castle!

Get the wall between you and the CE. There is a good chance your cannon will be able to fire at it twice per round in this location. The bad news is your cannon depletes twice as fast and you'll be making trips quicker.

Yeah. So...

if you copy this at least give me credit. <_<
