Flawless hardmode help th-cam.com/video/bJROmxrFx3M/w-d-xo.html Small correction/additional tips - Zaryte bow has too low range, you'd want to use a decimation, wyvern xbow or nox bow as a long range switch. - Greater chain and EoF Gstaff is very powerful for wave 5
@SuperFutureTrunks1 damm i can feel you just here struggling to survive i make more money on osrs and swaping it to rs3 then playing it a bond costs 56m in osrs 5-6 thats 2 hours of vorkath or like 3-4 with lower stats
@SuperFutureTrunks1 I understand where youre coming from because my gear isnt great either, but you have it twisted. First off, theres a positive feedback loop that you just need to break into. One big upgrade will have you making massive gp, which will give you a better upgrade that will have you making more gp, and so on. There are plenty of afk methods for making >20m/hr (eg abyssal lords), especially with cryptbloom. Youre comparing yourself to an extremely small percentage of players who have been playing for years. Its also possible that many of these players got a lucky drop, propelling them ahead in gear massively. One lucky drop from a clue can net you 8b. Join masses for the harder bosses at a chance at that loot too (eg Nex AOD for the t99 prayers). To put it bluntly: if youre struggling to earn >10m/hr, then that's on you. Yeah, playing catchup is demotivating and difficult, but with enough patience you'll inevitably get that drop that makes you rich. If you don't want to practice enough to be able to stand up to the hardest bosses in the game, then 1) you can't expect to be entitled to the best gear and 2) you don't need the best gear. Don't spend a ton of money on the bis gear when you can wait for the next upgrade to come out, sending the previously-bis gear down to half price! Still, what you're experiencing is extremely frustrating and you're not alone whatsoever. Just know its not a conspiracy. gl with it
So, little known fact, you can teleport to any boss regardless of kc, if you are maxed. Use the Max Guild pvm portal at the top of the stairs, and you can teleport to any boss. For those of you who don't know. :)
Immensely appreciate the guide. I went ahead and used magic with Animate Dead which actually made Zuk incredibly easy. The 17 waves leading up to Zuk actually ended up being the tough portion, but I certainly appreciate you listing out the safe spots. Very in-depth guide; thanks much!
I really want these capes, but legit, watched this video start to finish, I just don't think I can even do it if I try 🙃 wish everything was simpler these days, last thing I remember learning properly in RuneScape was the Ascension bosses and QBD lol.
Protoxx thank you so much for your guide. I've watched multiple but yours is the most simple and easy to understand. I finally got my zuk cape last night on the first try after several failed attempts in the past. I had no food left and just one brew left. You explain things for casual pvmers very well.
I just got my zuk cape after a week of trying. The waves were easy, zuk himself was easy, i struggled only with the pizza phase as I couldnt kill the mobs fast enough, and when i managed to kill them, I would surge to the next but ended up over shooting into the flames and dying because of that. A HUGE thing I decided to try, although may not be favored, Is death touch darts. These darts can be used on the minions during the pizza phase which will give you plently of time to get to the next one. Another tip is walk under zuk and then walk to the next if you have trouble over surging like i did. Hope this helps
I would recommend using the SE safespot for 2x and 3x jad waves; for the former, you can clear mobs + prayer bat then take on Jads easily without needing much care for positioning. Also, you can use Natural Instinct on Zuk at the end of the challenge waves and build to DS/Sun and save adren pots if your damage isn't enough in a pinch. In normal mode, you can clear all minions in special phases and nothing more will spawn so you can freely SS to full and prep your ult rotation. You can also stack storm shards on him throughout the fight, and during the pizza phase between minions to deal a massive hit to clear last 100k (or phase to 100k) quickly.
@@ProtoxxGaming Re: triple jad, it's because you only end up luring middle jad over, and can move around more (that's more applicable for HM as you need space for flame wave and don't want to catch another jad hit), and then just go straight north and fight that jad, then west to the other. In NW spot, all three get lured over.
It's actually super annoying how inaccessible they make all of the new content to the average player. I hate spending an entire day researching all of the gear, setups, guides, mechanics, you name it just so I can attempt a new boss or new content, only to fail it 50 times and get extremely frustrated then go do other content until I regain enough courage to try learning it again.
For anyone struggling to clear the DPS check on the pizza phase using range, I found the following rotation works: Freedom, Surge to minion #1, Tight Bindings, Vulnerability Bomb, Snap Shot, Bombardment Surge to minion #2, Vulnerability Bomb, Rapid Fire, Shadow Tendrils Surge to minion #3, Vulnerability Bomb, Snap Shot, Bombardment, Rapid Fire I did this using perked Anima Core of Zamorak (body and legs), Perked Ascension Crossbows, Cinderbanes, a TokKul-Zo, and a Scripture of Wen. The Winds End perk from my Fleeting Boots helped to start damaging the second minion while simultaneously getting into an appropriate position. The rotation works, but there's no room for errors. Realistically, it took me around 50+ attempts to learn the fight. Have fun!
Im pretty sure i had 20+ deaths and watched wave 15 and the pizza wave like 20+ times and i got my first zuk kill with checkpoints. Even though i died so many times the practice is what i liked the most. Going to attempt again shortly for the stone so i can upgrade my necro cape. Thanks Protoxx you are a RS goat!!!
I made peace with the fact I'll get my flawless hard mode kill once the first challenge gets the mobs closer or Ranged gets a new update. Right now it feels Magic is the absolute best way to get the BIS cape, but I'm nowhere near as experienced with magic as i am with Melee or Ranged. So I'm gonna sit this one out until later in the future.
I haven't tried hard mode yet. What are you using for 1st challenge? I'm going to try today for it im also a ranged melee only person. I use ecb spec wep+++ cinder bane kwaurm sticks with greater rico. I hoping thats going to be enough to complete that challenge.
Today i just did my first hm flawless kill with ranged, for the first challenge just camp hydrix bolt with ecb spec, first use snap shot/rapid fire/grico anda then spam d bows, i got 3 tries, dificult but possible
I'm having a very difficult time with the fire pizza, I can't describe the minions enough even if I use the stun, threshold, and close range like I should
You can TANK those 3 dudes on the wave 15 challenge with the Elysian/Arcane/Divine Spirit Shields, Obsidian Armour and the Reflect Ability. Primal Feast heals 2500 x 4 for 10k or, I found Great Gunkan to be good too (heals 1500 + 1500 over time). Using Purple Sweets helps too (stackable heals for 200hp each), healing in the safe spots when no one is attacking. Also, for those that struggle with DPS, you really need to take down those tentacles at Har-Aken.
Nice Guide thank you! Helped me out a lot! Please can you tell me What that blue/white stream attack from minute 04:02-04:06 is? Thank a lot. Keep going with your guides! :)
I saw someone with armadyl and off hand chaotic crossbow got the range cape. He also have t70 magic tank armour and virtus book with seismic wand and got the magic cape. I think this is doable with low tier equipment
the blue lightning pillar is the damaging proc from the scripture of wen, it's definitely a worthwhile pocket slot upgrade that does more damage than the illuminated armadyl book and for a fraction of the hourly cost since the manuscripts for wen are much more common and cheaper, not to mention the base stats outside of the proc are also better.
Great guide again, thanks a lot. Any tips for my dps rotation during the 50k damage phase? Im playing with a wyvern cbow (99 ranged) and full pernix if that helps.
That's the whole point, Its about time they locked pvm gear behind skilled / people who dedicate time and effort into learning bosses instead of people who buy rsgp and buy everything
Any tips for the minions? I’m always left with in alive before I’m insta killed. I use sirenic with obsidian helm. Etc and ruby bacs, I though ab switching to diamond bacs since they pierce armour would that be better?
I'm just wondering how the hell is this boss supposed to be killed without banking? Just for the fight with Zuk I need almost a full inv of food in normal mode. Am I missing something?
You make it sound easy! Lol Can you do a mobile guide? I’m attempting to max an account on mobile only and that includes Pvming i between skills to fund the account. Hopefully it’s possible, thanks
Lol I don't understand trying to do everything on mobile but needing someone to make a guide for you to do it ... Rs has always been a pc game. Sorry I gotta bone to pick since mobile rs updates been different
Nice video all around Protoxx but i had a question arise watching the Equipment section of the guide. If Maging with animate dead, wouldn't it be better to instead of seasinger/cryptobloom top and bottom to go instead with Obsidian armor for the %DR and instead use tank gloves and boots to still keep the animate dead effect strong.
Thanks for the guide, but can't get past wave 7 lol I need to eat so much that I end up teleporting or dying. Can't stand this now, gonna try in the weekend again
@@ProtoxxGaming Personally, That's close to the point of going too far, where they went too far is Zuk himself, A solo boss that is lvl 14k? And one that is originally from OSRS? Personally, I think facing the Wildy bosses one after the other would be easier, even though Kallisto is a tank and a half and is easiest with a safespot trap.
Hello sorry ima kinda new long time player just got back. Could you please let me the name of all the gear used in the range set up? Please and thank you.
Sure thing. Fleeting boots (u can also use obsidian boots if u dont have money I suppose) Cinderbane gloves Ascension Xbows Ruby bakriminel bolts (e) Sirenic chaps Sirenic hauberk Obsidian ranger helm Essence of finality Scripture of Wen (book) Vampyrism aura Tokkul zo ring
@@ProtoxxGaming thank you so very very much!!! Super glad I found your videos. It has made the return much smoother. Last time I played was the 1st week priff came out.
Question. If I leave the arena after every checkpoint and don't die will I still get the cape upgrade? Or do I have to stay Inside the full fight, beat Zuk without dying to get the cape?
@@ProtoxxGaming Dang. I was hoping you could bank after every checkpoint. It will be awhile before I can claim the cape. Oh well! I look forward to the challenge.
@@ProtoxxGaming Thank you. Weird question. I've watched your videos on Nex along with others and I'm still struggling with the blood phase. I just simply can't throw down enough dps. I stop attacking every time she says a siphon will solve this and Immediately start attacking when her wings drop. The problem Is she always heals back up to 200k hp. Is their a fc or something that would allow me to watch someone killing Nex? I'm not trying to take the loot or anything. I just want to physically watch someone do the blood phase so I can maybe get a better understanding of how It works.
@@XxJustinxx88 are you using bleeds? Bleeds heal her during blood phase. Take blood phase slow till you get the hang of it. Kill reavers before siphon, surge away with blood sacrifice, no bleeds.
IM melee and ive beat it 4 times but keep dying on the first special wave 5 for some reason i couldnt even barricade it, was thinking about disruption shield but pretty sure i res, the first time i was in there. or maybe i just signed every time on that one and didnt even know it
wait, i'm confused. how do i obtain the melee cape without doing my damages with melee? i'm losing a bit of info here. Hold on, i'm dumber than usual, you get an igneous stone for for ANY cape by using any style. don't mind me.
I gave up a flawless run after getting sent to oblivion over and over by the first exploding mob after the DPS check at Zuk... I can no food until then, but I can't kill them fast enough.
@@ProtoxxGaming my main style is melee and I use it to berserk Zuk and do the 50k damage... I am switching to Attuned Crystal Bow for everything else I can't melee (like Jad and safespotting,). I guess I need to buy ascensions to improve my DPS at these DPS challenges. Full gear rundown: Noxious scythe (P6E4) Attuned Crystal bow (P6E4) Full obsidian armor Max cape (invention, ranged and defence cape perks) Amulet of Souls (OR) Tirannwn Quiver 3 Scripture of Jas Switches: Augmented Drygore Sword (P6) Augmented Corrupted Defender (E4) - I could try ditching the obsidian armor and just use Pernyx with nightmare gauntlets and fleeting boots, maybe I can do it even with my t80 bow, who knows. Edit: Just tried it, still had two minions left.
@@thaedleinad the dps check in wave 5 is hard even if u do have ascenions. I feel like an essence of finality with the darkbow spec and the corruption shot ability carry hard. Btw u dont need a flawless run for the capes, just powerburst of vitality and tank the golem hits maybe? Flawless is only useful if u wanna try hardmode
@@ProtoxxGaming I bought ascensions and still got reckt, lmao. I will gather more money for EoF and Limitless... Time to go big, I am tired of doing shitty bosses only. I want my billions ans T95s.
Just seeing what this content is was enough to give me a headache. I can see now why the cape you get for it is so overpowered, considering what you have to do to get it, and there's even a hard mode version of all this? Jesus. I'd probably at least try it if it weren't for the mechanic requiring thresholds to do proper damage on some enemies. Necromancy doesn't have any real thresholds, so I don't know if there are even any abilities for it that would work there. Edit: I got recommended your more recent video that does show Necromancy use here and confirms which abilities work as thresholds, so I guess I will try this sometime, once I can comfortably afford the cost of supplies.
i cant even beat the first jad wave :'( fight kiln was laughably easy and i went into this thinking id smash the waves and my only challenge would be zuk himself. cant even beat a single jad.

Small correction/additional tips
- Zaryte bow has too low range, you'd want to use a decimation, wyvern xbow or nox bow as a long range switch.
- Greater chain and EoF Gstaff is very powerful for wave 5
Try Dragon breath then g chain and finally combust. Thank me later
of course i only read this after putting some pretty good perks on a zaryte bow. fml.

Well it is optimal gear if you cant use the new cape then the kiln cape if not that then def cape or whatever the best cape you have is

What I do to the DPS phase of Zuk is Anticipate, pray magic, walk to the center below Zuk then walk left. The minions always spawn at your upper left.
which phase?
You can TANK those 3 dudes on the wave 15 challenge with the Elysian/Arcane/Divine Spirit Shields, Obsidian Armour and the Reflect Ability. Primal Feast heals 2500 x 4 for 10k or, I found Great Gunkan to be good too (heals 1500 + 1500 over time). Using Purple Sweets helps too (stackable heals for 200hp each), healing in the safe spots when no one is attacking. Also, for those that struggle with DPS, you really need to take down those tentacles at Har-Aken.

dont forget you can death touch dart the har-aken, so you can save resources for zuk (for flawless), and also save time too :D

Sure thing. Scripture of Wen (also known as Wen book) proccing.
Its a god book thats dropped by the arch-glacor, buyable on the grand exchange.
I saw someone with armadyl and off hand chaotic crossbow got the range cape. He also have t70 magic tank armour and virtus book with seismic wand and got the magic cape. I think this is doable with low tier equipment
Seismic wand is not low tier and animate dead makes lower tier mage armor act high tier...

This may be a silly question, but what is the blue beam that i see damaging things in your videos? Is it some sort of bolts proc, or ability?
the blue lightning pillar is the damaging proc from the scripture of wen, it's definitely a worthwhile pocket slot upgrade that does more damage than the illuminated armadyl book and for a fraction of the hourly cost since the manuscripts for wen are much more common and cheaper, not to mention the base stats outside of the proc are also better.

Why is there no ability bar set up in this video D:
so why is this recommended for ranged and not melee? I cant event get to jad with ranged, but melee the whole fight is easy
Hello sorry ima kinda new long time player just got back. Could you please let me the name of all the gear used in the range set up? Please and thank you.
Sure thing.
Fleeting boots (u can also use obsidian boots if u dont have money I suppose)
Cinderbane gloves
Ascension Xbows
Ruby bakriminel bolts (e)
Sirenic chaps
Sirenic hauberk
Obsidian ranger helm
Essence of finality
Scripture of Wen (book)
Vampyrism aura
Tokkul zo ring
@@ProtoxxGaming thank you so very very much!!! Super glad I found your videos. It has made the return much smoother. Last time I played was the 1st week priff came out.
I didn’t understand something, you need 3 runs flawless in normal mode or in hardmode to get the cape?
flawless to unlock hardmode. just dont die or bank to get kiln cape upgrades
can you use a deattouch dart on this thing to get the capes?
You can't use dtd at gw3 bosses atm I believe
so i defeated zuk and it said new collection log for stone but I cant find it anywhere??
Its in the chest (the loot chest)
Cryptbloom worth using here?
Yes! Very much so
Question. If I leave the arena after every checkpoint and don't die will I still get the cape upgrade? Or do I have to stay Inside the full fight, beat Zuk without dying to get the cape?
Nope. No teleports allowed. They count as dying
@@ProtoxxGaming Dang. I was hoping you could bank after every checkpoint. It will be awhile before I can claim the cape. Oh well! I look forward to the challenge.
@@XxJustinxx88 Once you get the hang of it, you'll probably get all 3 in rapid succession! Good luck!
@@ProtoxxGaming Thank you. Weird question. I've watched your videos on Nex along with others and I'm still struggling with the blood phase. I just simply can't throw down enough dps. I stop attacking every time she says a siphon will solve this and Immediately start attacking when her wings drop. The problem Is she always heals back up to 200k hp. Is their a fc or something that would allow me to watch someone killing Nex? I'm not trying to take the loot or anything. I just want to physically watch someone do the blood phase so I can maybe get a better understanding of how It works.
@@XxJustinxx88 are you using bleeds? Bleeds heal her during blood phase. Take blood phase slow till you get the hang of it. Kill reavers before siphon, surge away with blood sacrifice, no bleeds.
I’m bis range and I’ve been struggling so hard to get a zuk kill. I can literally kill almost everything else
@10:50 that “brrrrr down zuk” was so unexpected i spit water all over my screen
I may be wrong but I think zuk used his bleed mechanic twice in a row on me at the end of the fight. Is that normal?
You probably just phased him like I said in the guide :p
IM melee and ive beat it 4 times but keep dying on the first special wave 5 for some reason i couldnt even barricade it, was thinking about disruption shield but pretty sure i res, the first time i was in there. or maybe i just signed every time on that one and didnt even know it
Resonance the first hit>then barricade. Your barricade is probably running out of time (check ur debuff bar)
Just came back for necromancy and I completely forgot how to do zuk I got rekt when the Minions were easy lol
What does prock mean?
I got 2 version of covid shots just for this boss. I'm all prepared baby
Wait whys that? LOL
Does zuk have the rona?
@@ProtoxxGaming fucker sure does lmao
wait, i'm confused. how do i obtain the melee cape without doing my damages with melee? i'm losing a bit of info here.
Hold on, i'm dumber than usual, you get an igneous stone for for ANY cape by using any style. don't mind me.
you got it right there :) yup, it's the stone and you can pick
Why is it recommended to use the obsidian helm over a tank helm?
damage reduction provided by the helm (passive) + tokktul damage reduction boost is a lot less damage taken.
@@ProtoxxGaming awesome. Thanks!
Flawess indeed
So ill only need about a billion worth of gear to do this comfortably, on top of my 200m gear on
How to get stun the golems if you use necro?
soul strike
Hi Protoxx. Nice guide. Did you enjoy making it? I'm curious, how long did it take to make it?
Well done on it
Very enjoyable! It would've been out about 5 days after release if it wasn't for me being busy with exams and stuff
thx protox :) i got it
grats dude :)
whats in the rune pouch
How do I stun in Retro-Mod?🤔
I gave up a flawless run after getting sent to oblivion over and over by the first exploding mob after the DPS check at Zuk...
I can no food until then, but I can't kill them fast enough.
What style are u using+gear? I might have some ideas
@@ProtoxxGaming my main style is melee and I use it to berserk Zuk and do the 50k damage... I am switching to Attuned Crystal Bow for everything else I can't melee (like Jad and safespotting,). I guess I need to buy ascensions to improve my DPS at these DPS challenges.
Full gear rundown:
Noxious scythe (P6E4)
Attuned Crystal bow (P6E4)
Full obsidian armor
Max cape (invention, ranged and defence cape perks)
Amulet of Souls (OR)
Tirannwn Quiver 3
Scripture of Jas
Switches:
Augmented Drygore Sword (P6)
Augmented Corrupted Defender (E4)

I could try ditching the obsidian armor and just use Pernyx with nightmare gauntlets and fleeting boots, maybe I can do it even with my t80 bow, who knows.
Edit: Just tried it, still had two minions left.
@@thaedleinad the dps check in wave 5 is hard even if u do have ascenions. I feel like an essence of finality with the darkbow spec and the corruption shot ability carry hard.
Btw u dont need a flawless run for the capes, just powerburst of vitality and tank the golem hits maybe? Flawless is only useful if u wanna try hardmode
@@ProtoxxGaming I bought ascensions and still got reckt, lmao. I will gather more money for EoF and Limitless... Time to go big, I am tired of doing shitty bosses only. I want my billions ans T95s.
stuck on wave 12 but well still using zaryte bow and pernix gear without eof :´)
Awesome vid! I tried cyptbloom armour here and you still get thumped hard by everything. the DPS checks also don't help haha
Give dps armour a shot if cryptbloom isnt cutting it for you. At least for zuk anyway
@@ProtoxxGaming thanks for the advice!
Just seeing what this content is was enough to give me a headache. I can see now why the cape you get for it is so overpowered, considering what you have to do to get it, and there's even a hard mode version of all this? Jesus.
I'd probably at least try it if it weren't for the mechanic requiring thresholds to do proper damage on some enemies. Necromancy doesn't have any real thresholds, so I don't know if there are even any abilities for it that would work there.
Edit: I got recommended your more recent video that does show Necromancy use here and confirms which abilities work as thresholds, so I guess I will try this sometime, once I can comfortably afford the cost of supplies.
This boss seems to hard for my little brain
i cant even beat the first jad wave :'( fight kiln was laughably easy and i went into this thinking id smash the waves and my only challenge would be zuk himself. cant even beat a single jad.
Any one know what a good ability bar for revo? Mainly for 2h magic.

@@ProtoxxGaming thank you! I watched that one before but forgot about it
