You could also use the Troll Stronghold teleport in your house (after "Making friends with my arm") and run from there, instead of worrying about Trollheim teleports. I typically drink a sip of stamina, and then hoof it. It also saves an inventory slot.
@@hardstreg6980 That's avg kc/hr. Including bank trips and grabbing supplies from the alt. Max I've gotten in an hour 24-25. But I've had my crappy hours too
Eric Brannon still keep in mind the extra magic defense is nice because the minion still hits a lot and the extra range bonus for faster kills also helps from taking damage overall
I killed jad first time ever on task to your fight cave guide so I'm definitely giving this a go you need to uplaod more regularly man your channel is so underrated like more giudes etc
Late comment, but if you arent bringing a crossbow you can bring the fletching cape with you to save a slot since it gives you a crossbow and a grapple
You forgot to mention Making Friends With My Arm's benefits, with the Fire of Unseasonal Warmth. Which is a huge benefit if you don't want to waste any doses of your restores/doesn't destroy your run energy as well.
I didn't mention the benefit you're right. I don't see it making a big difference though except maybe in run energy. But you bank less than once and hour so idk if that speeds much up either. Your stats should be back to 98-99 by the time you get to arma's area so you don't sip a restore to fill back up. Either wait 30 seconds or pot up from 98 instead of 99. I'm not denying the quest has benefits, I just don't think they will change up the grind at all
@@TheEdB0ys With high defence and the quest done you don't even really need a sara/zammy item. With pray from melee and augury I barely take any damage running there.
Great vid! but i wouldn't recommend taking a zammy/sara item. You might get hit once or twice but not enough for the items to be worth taking over a breew/restore
Best guy dude I’m new to armadyl as solo player I did this boss with my friends while ago , but I want to be pro soloing this bird ❤️thanks your guide is awesome
Really good guide for the most part. The only part I would change is that you don't need a Sara or Zammy item if you are using a key to get in. You can just run straight to the safespot in the corner and only 1-2 zammy monsters will attack you once you swing across and can easily be pray flicked. Other than that, great guide, very informative.
Good vid just a couple things to add: I bring blood barrages for good heals as i dont care about the alchs Crystal shield is almost always better than dfs as it doesnt decrease your dps
Lumbridge Elite Diaries provides some high alchs for free each day, as well as allowing fairy rings without using a dramen/lunar staff, so if you've got a ring in your house, you can use a quest cape to tele out, since it's a requirement for the diary.
Good points. Though if you have a ring in your house why not use house tabs instead of the extra slot for quest cape. (Assuming you bring 2 trollheim teleports and revert 1 to a house tab afterwards)
When using chins, your accuracy is based of the monster you're attacking's defense level, and just that monster. So if you use it on the minion, you'll be more accurate than if you use it on Kree
I used this guide in order to unlock Nex, had to kill each of the God wars bosses for the frozen key. On cue when you say if you get lucky from the drop, I killed the minion after Kree Ara and they dropped armadyl chainskirt, my kc is 12 lmao
All of the cheaper gear I would recommend are mentioned in the vid. If you've not got enough money for that lower tier stuff I don't recommend fighting this boss.
i was hoping you'd say 75+ range is enough but 90+ yikes i'm ways off lol. I'm only 77 range and 75 def right now but nice guide will keep this in mind when i'm higher range and def.
That having to target kree but then atk the minion shit seems like too much. I mean Ik that it is what it is. But it makes me think I can’t do it. Especially since I’m on mobile. I see he’s having to right click the minion Bc kree is sorta in the way standing on top of him. I don’t think I can over come that on mobile.
If I'm soloing with chins and ely, is it worth it to even bring t bow on top of acb since I need the grapple? If I brought an rcb and dropped it... sure thats an extra inventory space, once I'm there already? So to maximize my supplies if I plan on camping solo for a while should I just keep t bow banked and bring acb and bp with ely? Also long term is ROS (i) better than Archer's? What about if I'm off task, ROS or Archers, assuming both are imbued? With inventory spaces considered, off task, would Arma helm, Zammy dhide top and sara bottom be better than full arma, considering that would be 2 more things i wouldnt have to just drop? I'm just trying to visualize my setup, since I'm not online right now, but I feel like when I'm entering the room, with key and everything else, I'm going to have a lot of empty spaces.
The extra invy space is up to you. I would bring the bow, but that's because I use my alt for banking and I'm not worried about the extra invy space. It's actually nice at the beginning of the fight when you need to pick things up and have a fully invy. As for gear switches same thing applies. If you're just learning the boss, more potions. But you have an ely so you won't take a ton of damage. The only reason RoS will get you faster kills is if you're banking a lot already. Idk how long your trips are, but archer's ring will get faster kills, meaning less chins and more money per hour (again as long as you're not banking all the time). On or off task
I just came back to the game. I’ll admit I wasn’t really that good back then, I only ever did like 3 arms kills with 2 friends. But I was wondering, is this fight kind of a joke if you have 3 people at max stats?
3 maxed combats shouldn't have a problem with Arma for sure. Make sure at least one of you is using Chins though, otherwise the fights will get a little long and you'll use more supplies then you'd like.
Correct! The chin will base its damage on the monster you threw it at. So you'll deal more damage attacking the minion instead of Kree Sorry for the late reply
It would be easier yes, but the kills will be a lot slower. This means you get less loot per hour, and you'll take more damage per kill, making for more food used and more bank trips. So spending the money on the chins leads to better profit in the long run
@@3fl1ppp Depends what you mean by fast enough. Fast enough to get a kill? Yes Fast enough to make up for not having chins? No. It's far more worth it to use chins
Using the chins on the minion will ignore the defense level on the boos. Because of that this is the fastest way to damage the boss. This is explained in the video
Dragonfire ward is better than DFS for arma. I think spectral might be better overall though (especially if you're on task) since the defense is much better and it gives a prayer bonus
TheEdB0ys thanks for the reply man. It'd be with karils or god dhide, anguish, acb, black chins, dfs, blowpipe, bones to peaches, ring of suffering, and bringing blood barrage runes. I think bc I have much lower def it’s worth it to bring ros instead of archers ring
There is no minimum requirements for defense. If you're taking a lot of hits then obviously getting higher defense would help, but also having better tank gear can help too. You do take magic damage in there too, and higher magic level will protect you a little bit. Maybe train to ~90 defense and try again if it's not working out. And in the long run if you really want to camp arma you should think about 99
Yeah you could. The DFS is a little better for defensive purposes, but if you're not getting cranked it shouldn't be an issue, and ofc the face guard helps make up for it. If you're on task I would highly suggest slayer helm over the face guard though, the bonus damage will be way more beneficial than the defense
not ward, guard yes, this guide alittle older before guard was main stream, also its best to extend avansies as slayer task so you get 200-240, then use this method, thatll help with cost of chins , and youll get roughly 50-60 boss kills per task. the 15% accuracy and dmg buff from slayer makes this reasonable, otherwise me and my buddy just duo it no chins and get 30 to 37 kills per trip
The spirit shield is like +2 better for melee, but the crystal shield is a lot better in ranged (tho that's not that big since you prot ranged a lot). So blessed spirit shield is slightly better
@@TheEdB0ys im using black chins, slayerhelm (i), karils top & bottom, pegs, anguish, barrows gloves, archers ring (i), and dfs, iv got the method down and dont mess it up that often but even still it seems like i take way too much damage. im walking under kree to eat then targeting him when i walk out to avoid the melee hit. not sure what else i could be doing.
I'm sorry man but I don't have a great answer. I assume you're using brews/restores to heal. If you got 99 def and mage (and ranged too) would definitely help, but you should be able to manage more than a 1 kill trip. Make sure your DFS is charged. Seems obvious but you never know. And it could just be small sample size, practice makes perfect.
Guardian boots and ring of suffering(i) twisted buckler > Dfs Rangers. The first setup supplies better defense better range bonus and cheaper also = stats to the elly setup but elly setup has 30 less mage def! Not sure why people are using setups "from 2013' :( 200 iq here
Your shield slot is mostly needed for defense here. You could get faster kill times with a Buckler, but you will likely take more damage and have to bank more often. 8n the long run this would mean less kills/hr
@@Poobabguy No the cape slot isn't as important for defense as your shield, plus the assembler helps save more darts/arrows (not chins though). If you were experiencing too much ass kicking then yes you could try the ranged cape. Overall there aren't a lot of gear pieces that you need to focus on defense, but a shield is more commonly one of them
TheEdB0ys, actually if you add a Vorkath head to a range cape it will save the same amount of ammo as the assembler. Thanks for your reply! I’m doing this on a 75 def account and find myself having to eat up a lot during a kill, still pulling 9kill trips though. Thanks!
@@Poobabguy Keep in mind adding that head doesn't add the ranged bonus or ranged str bonus of the assembler. Overall you're mostly just getting melee defense out of the ranged cape (Since you're protecting from ranged, and the mage defense is only off by -1 on the assembler). With only 75 defense this might be helping, but in the long run you're more likely to do better with the assembler. Also keep in mind if you're using chinchompas, the ranged accuracy and str boost make a bigger difference, since you don't get those back from any ava's device
@@TheEdB0ys how come it seems like you have so many arma kills then in the video? i do 10-11 myself, sometimes I get wrecked but still pull off atleast 7
