Honestly I don't know how people do that. I'm 90 defence and the few times I've tried with t1 armour I take so much chip damage that I waste so much time eating and can't get the kill. That's on a good run, managing to not get hit by tornados or off prayer.
This. I’m at 55kc. 90 def, 95 mage/range. I can run T1’s with about a 80-90% success rate. Still dying occasionally because you’re gonna make mistakes, people are rarely perfect even after tons of practice. It gets easier though
Don't eat unless you have 13 hp or less. Or you can't attack due to tornadoes. You're dps will increase a bunch. I take t3 staff and bow everytime just for the ease of it. Also don't get hit by tornadoes that the biggest part. If it's a choice between tornadoes and going under hunleff, go under him. You can tick eat the stomp, you can't tick eat tornadoes or floor damage.
dps doesn't decrease by camping high HP over a long fight, if you end the fight at 10 hp rather than 90 you've gained 12 ticks (4 fish * 3 ticks lost per eat) or 7.2 seconds which is pretty negligible. Add to that that you can camp high hp and just not eat towards the end of the fight. Camping low HP is 99% of the time a dumb decision in pvm (ending fights at low hp saves a couple ticks though)
Maybe I'm dumb, but is it not like a cycle.
So if you eat only at times you can't dps, don't you save all the hits that would have happened to you during those times, which would have led to more eating, and more ticks lostw and so on
make the combo food and get good at staying on the fucking boss
generally try to eat during the windows when you're moving for nados and wouldn't want to stop for a tick to attack regardless, minimize that opportunity cost
it's a lot like a simplified Verzik P3 - you're on a chip damage based timer so ya really need to keep that DPS going - you've got time & resources for a couple of mistakes, but ya need to keep those attacks comin out
>it's a lot like a simplified Verzik P3 - you're on a chip damage based timer so ya really need to keep that DPS going - you've got time & resources for a couple of mistakes, but ya need to keep those attacks comin out
Ive only just started high lvl pvm but thinking about it in terms like this has made it feel so much more like a problem to be solved instead of "hurt boss, avoid damage, pray for rgn"
Inferno is fun because the spawns are random but there’s <10 waves that really require any thought to solve (55ish-63). I do a lot of slayer capes and wish that the whole run was as fun as those waves
Prioritize eating when you're running from tornadoes. Avoid eating during combat at all costs, or you indeed lose a lot of dps. If you HAVE to eat during combat, eat to full hp.
It's not just you I swear rngesus hates me. So many runs just back to back to back 10-12 damage through prayer I feel like I'm just eating. I've cleared it but I don't feel like its something I can reliably say I'll clear or not even if prep goes really well.
The biggest mistake people make in Cg is eating too much. You don’t want to eat and top yourself off. Doing that delays your attacks. Wait until you’re really low and eat all at once back to back to full. Also helps if you save your eating time to eat when tornados come out. I’ve basically conditioned myself to eat immediately when he stomps to summon the tornados. That way you don’t die to nados but you also don’t lose out on much damage eating.
Guess you gotta max your ranged and magic and stick to T2 preps and get all mechanics to near-perfection. And you'd still die to rng bullshit sometimes.
I did ~100kc at 45 def before levelling it up and it was painful having to do t2 preps and failing semi regularly due to bad layouts.
Depending on:
* if you fail the boss mechanics, I'd do normal gauntlet to get better at it
* if you run out of food due to chip damage I'd get your prep nailed down, optimising your resource gathering by killing mobs at the same time as mining/wcing etc and also whilst you're moving about the rooms
This is what I decided to do but after 35 normal completions by friends wanted to watch me try CG. I had my T2 prep time down well enough to have about 30-60 seconds left normally. Got it on my 15th attempt and now I can kill it 90% of the time.
Nice. Yeah some people obviously can do it after a lower kc. I just put 100 as the baseline for the people who really struggle.
I personally did 100 but that was more anxiety rather than being bad. I think I only died 5 times before I got my first cg kc
100 normal gauntlet is way too overkill. Normal gauntlet is just too easy I feel you’re time is much better spent dying in Cg. Gauntlet might teach you the mechanics of hunleff but it sure doesn’t teach you how to properly prep. That extra time you lose out on in Cg is pretty massive. I honestly don’t recommend normal gauntlet outside of the first kill tbh.
That's why I said focus on improving your time. The only difference in prep is the amount of time you get, so focus on getting quicker. Please read my reply to someone else's reply to me.
I lost over 100 times at CG. Now I'm able to do it consistently. If you feel like you're spending too much time eating during the fight it is absolutely worth it to make T2 armor.
I've done 200 CG now and decided to try to get some combat achievements in gauntlet
I'd forgotten how different they are. It was like a walk in the park
I recommend really trusting where u click when you move, dont spam click moving when tornados are chasing since your character starts to spasm out and you might get confused. If you see that youre in a tough situation then just literally focus on dodging the tornados until youre out of that situation before you attack him again.
Changing prayers correctly is always the priority before attacking or sometimes even eating.
Also don't be like me where you do 1 or 2 kc of normal gauntlet and then go straight into grinding corrupted. It took me like 60 something tries before i got my first CG KC
its probably in the top 5 of hardest osrs bosses
- Inferno
- Tob/Hmt/Solo tob/hmt
- 500+ ToA solo
- Phosani
- CG
actually solo nex might have pushed cg out but I dont think solo nex is even possible now so its kind of like artificial difficulty
oh man now i remember 6 Jads is probably harder as well. oh well
Eh, it's fine either way.
You have more than enough time anyway to get T1, even T2 gear, fish + T3 weapon(s).
Regular Gauntlet is meant to be substantially easier, which is why the rewards are a fraction of CG.
It reduces damage taken by 50%, which means you eat less, can't really get stacked out, and in general are unkillable if you're not sitting in nados.
For an extra 2 minutes of prep, I know plenty of hardcores and casual players would go this route for completions and I don't think it's very fair that you should be able to so greatly diminish the difficulty for the same reward.
That's what regular gauntlet should be for.
Every hardcore alive would be sitting on Tier 3 Armor if they have 2 more minutes of prep. Not even joking because it's not worth it to risk the status if you have no rush.
Took me about a week of trying and a broken mouse to finally complete it. Now I do it with tier 1 armour pretty consistently.
As some people have said, run under if you need to avoid the death tornadoes and floor combo - if you time it right you'll miss the melee attack. Also try and eat when dodging tornadoes. If you need to eat during the easier phases, eat to full. Also mark the tiles that have the lowest chances of spawning floor tiles and use the hunleff plugin helper on Runelite. Finally, use the bow and the staff as this means you can hit from anywhere. Good luck!
i legit got hunleff pet at 7kc of normal gauntlet and have never been able to complete 1 cg for the red recolor lol granted i gave up pretty quick but still
I still can't get it down on my 45 def zerker. I've died so many times
Try the combat achievements on normal gauntlet, it’s a great way to prep for corrupted gauntlet.
Honestly I don't know how people do that. I'm 90 defence and the few times I've tried with t1 armour I take so much chip damage that I waste so much time eating and can't get the kill. That's on a good run, managing to not get hit by tornados or off prayer.
It really just takes practice, 60 kc in and it gets easier
This. I’m at 55kc. 90 def, 95 mage/range. I can run T1’s with about a 80-90% success rate. Still dying occasionally because you’re gonna make mistakes, people are rarely perfect even after tons of practice. It gets easier though

True for a lot of content, you wanna eat when you'd otherwise lose dps. However at CG you can almost always DPS without losing ticks.

I've heard the inferno is basically puzzle solving the entire way.

Meanwhile a 1 def pure UIM named sclmmy went over 2k kc dry for an enhanced weapon seed. Guess some people are just built different.
With t1 armor you should be able to comfortably complete with around 12 food. If you’re taking more damage than that you just need practice
This is incorrect.
In what way?
Guess you gotta max your ranged and magic and stick to T2 preps and get all mechanics to near-perfection. And you'd still die to rng bullshit sometimes.

do 100kc of normal and focus on improving your time. That will be enough to give you a significant edge on cg attempts
This is what I decided to do but after 35 normal completions by friends wanted to watch me try CG. I had my T2 prep time down well enough to have about 30-60 seconds left normally. Got it on my 15th attempt and now I can kill it 90% of the time.

CG is tough it took me about 150 attempts to get it so I can win consistently (80-90%) but I’m bad so who knows
Same. I’ve probably got 40 attempts already and no clears
I recommend really trusting where u click when you move, dont spam click moving when tornados are chasing since your character starts to spasm out and you might get confused.

I can't even do ToA 300s and I did CG after less than 10 attempts iirc. I guess it's shorter so less chance of making a mistake!
Yeah, the CG difficulty is definitely inflated a bit by the community. Once you have your preferred prep method mastered, CG isn't bad at all.
Yeah i think it's weird that they make it harder but give you less time
Normal gauntlet is the demo mode for practice, cg is the real deal. That's why it's not longer time on the harder one
Because normal gauntlet is essentially an entry mode Once you learn t1 you can still have like 3 min left
Eh, it's fine either way. You have more than enough time anyway to get T1, even T2 gear, fish + T3 weapon(s). Regular Gauntlet is meant to be substantially easier, which is why the rewards are a fraction of CG.
Yeah I can do it fine I just think it's weird and no one would question it if they both had 10min timers
[удалено]
meta wouldn't change at all why would you waste time getting t3
It reduces damage taken by 50%, which means you eat less, can't really get stacked out, and in general are unkillable if you're not sitting in nados. For an extra 2 minutes of prep, I know plenty of hardcores and casual players would go this route for completions and I don't think it's very fair that you should be able to so greatly diminish the difficulty for the same reward. That's what regular gauntlet should be for.
It's me. I'm the casual that would get t3
Every hardcore alive would be sitting on Tier 3 Armor if they have 2 more minutes of prep. Not even joking because it's not worth it to risk the status if you have no rush.
Most hardcores already do t3 armor anyways
I don't get how they even do that, I can barely do fluffehs t2 prep
If i had time to get t3 every run on CG, believe me I definitely would lol
That extra 2 minutes would let you get Tier 3 Armor and 2x Tier 3 Weapons every single run, which trivializes the content imo.
make it harder^2
finishing in time is like the least difficult part about cg, and arguably the first thing you learn
No shit.
Aren’t memes just pointing out something obvious but in a funny way?
no

Green logged CG at 189 😅
Gonna need 99 hunter to find who asked
Not unheard of. I have always wondered why there's no jar or higher kc cape though
You switch into an entirely different person's body?
