Tormented Demon (Solo Guide) W/Claw Drop

- This video shows my method of soloing the Tormented Demons, after completing the While Guthix Sleeps quest.
*IMPORTANT*
When you switch the video to HD, make SURE you restart the video (drag the timeline back to 0:00) otherwise, the video will lag, and will not be enjoyable to watch )=!
Warning
This area is a multi-combat zone! I also highly suggest killing them in Spot #2 (shown in the video), as you will have far less interruptions.
Latest Inventories:
Whip/DFS: tinyurl.com/ye2...
Godsword: tinyurl.com/l7luvl
**Level Recommendations**
80+ Attack/Defense
75+ Range/Strength/Hitpoints
60+ Prayer
-Best Results
90+ Attack/Range/Defense/Hitpoints
85+ Strength
75+ Prayer
89+ Summoning
Feel free to try with lesser stats, just be forewarned, you will want to modify the inventories shown above to meet your levels (more food/less pots/use war tortoise, etc).
**Dealing with Interruptions**
For the sake of simplicity and space, I will only be showing one of the most common interruptions that occurs while using spot2 -- if you need more info re: lures, please contact me via YT or Skype.
1: tinyurl.com/y8h...
Commonly occurs when the demon at spot2 spawns.
2. tinyurl.com/ybv...
Lure the new demon north, forcing him into the crevice
3. tinyurl.com/ybn...
Return and finish killing the original demon
4. tinyurl.com/ycc...
Release the demon from the crevice
(only do this if there are no demons in sight towards the east if there are, simply lure them instead)
5. tinyurl.com/y8l...
Wait for the demon to come close, and move back towards the safe spot.
6. tinyurl.com/yzt...
The final step, forcing the demon to move close
You only want to have two demons at a time, one of which, is always stuck in the crevice. If you happen to lure an additional demon, he will shoot at you each time you step out to whip/Darklight the original demon.
You can lure this demon away; however, since the crevice spot is already filled, I find it to be far too troublesome and time consuming to be worth it.
The demon you're killing will always quickly switch over to melee, due to the recent prayer detection update, so I find its much more effective to simply pray magic/range against the interrupting demon, and tank the melee with Piety.
The lures are the most complex piece of Tormented Demon slaying; however, they are not too difficult to learn if you keep a sharp eye on their patterns.
**Tips n Tricks**
1. Make sure your auto retaliate is turned off
2. Use the F1/F3 keys for switching to inventory/prayer menu
3. Turn on ambient sounds (area sound effects)
4. They change prayers when hit for above 30points of damage, or if you deal NEAR 30 points of damage and hit again (for example, 28/0).
5. Use all rocks/pillars to lure the demons (if they cant see you, they will walk towards you)
6. They will almost always start with their magic attack/protect melee prayer, unless they have previously seen you
**F.A.Q**
Q: Are there only two spots to kill these guys?
A: Absolutely not! There is also a "spot3" found at the north east end of the cave
Q: Godsword or Whip?
A: Personal preference, Ive used both, and really enjoyed the DFS/whip combination (a SGS, for example, would be an excellent pick).
Q: Do you recommend Broad bolts?
A: No, Broad bolts will decrease your overall KPT (I've used both).
Q: How many kills do you get an hour?
A: 26-28

With the recent 'While Guthix Sleeps' release on the current version of oldschool I searched for an in depth guide and this is the first video in my recommended , amazing memories .. love how you got the drop and your first reaction was not to pick it up , but to go to the emote tab and dance it out LMAO .. good times bro .
insane times, insane nostalgia, grandparents still alive and you just reminisce like it was yesterday
This vid single handedly got me d claws back in the day, this was so far back in my favorite vids haha
Damn this brings me back! Playing osrs right now
Haha, glad you enjoyed the nostalgia trip (: - hard to believe it was so many years ago
@@HailNihilism Same here hahaha :D playing osrs on an ironman account 2k total almost
@@isiplocoyt352 im fucking vibing to that music
They released tormented demons again in osrs 😂
Hello Matrix,
FRAPS - it is my favorite recorder out of all the ones I have used.
It is a "pay for product"; however, you can download a demo from their website, which will merely place a small transparent water logo near the top portion of the screen.
In regards to the render settings, I suggest watching the video released on Dec 8th by "IceflowStudios" -- should be the same settings as mine.
Let me know if you have any other questions, and be sure to check out the video description.
Hello Grass,
Not sure which song you are referring to exactly; however, the full song listing can be found at the bottom of the video description *points to the right*.
Besides that, I highly recommend giving the extra information in there a read if you're planning on making a trip -- let me know if you have any questions! Pie
I think this is the best quality that i've ever seen on any runescape video, very nice.
Hello Alio,
The trips will become easier and easier as you learn their attack patterns, lures, and most importantly, how to avoid interruptions.
Due to you having slightly lower attack/defense levels, I might suggest you bring a War Tortoise for your first few runs, until you start "picking up the pattern"
Remember to check out the video description for more info, especially for the updated inventory and information re: the lures. ~Pie
Hello 27rocks,
I would assume that means you have not completed the "When Guthix Sleeps" quest, which is part of the requirements.
These are shown at 0:06 of the video, and the recommended stats can be found in the video description.
If/when you finish the quest, I highly recommend checking the video description for the updated inventories/info -- Pie
Hello Justin,
Wew, I have not even been following the updates -- been pretty busy/have not been on RS that much =P.
Looks like i missed this whole PVP/dump issue; although things seem to be stabilizing, so claws are back in business ^^.
Thanks for the comments, and for answering Sooper's question (= -- maybe I'll see you at the demons sometime =D! ~Pie
Thank you for the kind comments Saton (= -- always encouraging to hear.
I just finished creating a new inventory that boosted my hourly kill rate fairly drastically, so be sure to give the video description a look-see when you're able.
P.S. Sorry I was not able to get back to your question on the Zilyana video - although it looks like somebody already answered your question -- let me know if you have anymore! ~Pie
Hello Frodo,
Sorry for the late reply -- been pretty busy.
I recommend using tortoise/food based inventories until one knows the patterns/lures well.
I know you've been there before, so in your case I would recommend the titan -- as always, be sure to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions =D ~ Pie.
Hey there Moeh (=,
I've made one or two trips since the "behavior update", and found that "spot two" is still fully operational (the lure has changed ever-so-slightly).
At this point, the "adaption level" is minor, so I'm not rushing to update the video description just yet, as I plan to run a few more test first.
Thank you though for keeping an eye out for new techniques =D - one never can know enough, in any area for that matter. ~Pie
Hello Rillim,
Sorry for the late reply -- been pretty busy ^^.
A good suggestion in theory; however, I'm sorry to say it would not work )=.
This is because the demons will switch their attack styles if they detect you're praying -- this is the reason I do not protect melee (or won't protect very long), and simply "tank it".
As always, be sure to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions.
Hello Buzzboy,
My brother and I received two claw drops in less than one and a half hours once; however, there have been times where I've gone for ages without even seeing a shard.
The "results may vary" disclaimer might be a good way to put it =P - all in all though, the demons pay very very well.
Be sure to give the video description a read, and let me know if you have any questions -- Merry Christmas!
Hello 99chamillionaire99,
Song descriptions are at the bottom of the video description; although in this case, I'm sorry to say I can't really say too much regarding the first song name, as I really don't remember.
Hope the dry streak dries up soon =P. Also, note to others, I did a quick scan and didn't see anything that really needed a reply - but if I missed your question, be sure to post it again or send me a PM =D! -Pie
Nice music, editing and special effects. Very nice video guide. I feel fairly confident that with a little preparation, I can do these...
Thanks a bunch, dude!
Thank you Jack, and relished (above) for the kind comments (=.
I do wish to create another guide; although every topic that "sounded fun" already had half-what decent guides out )=.
I tend to try and "master" a topic before I create a guide (as to not waste your/my time =P), so sometimes it can be a while before I gather the information (and make sure there's not already a good guide to it).
I'll try to schedule in "the next project" here once I find something fun to do/write about ^^ ~ Pie.
Hello Spraaaaay,
Thanks for your kind comments (= - in answer to your question, yes, this still works just fine.
I no longer recommend spot1, as their behavior changed slightly over the updates; however, spot2 is fully operational, and better than ever.
I do not recommend a hally for anything other than the special attack (prefer GS/ unicorn / overload), but you "can" do it.
I highly recommend checking out the video description, and also the video by "oaktreedude" in regards to the lures.
The quality on this is really really good
Hello Exon,
Glad to hear it finally worked for you (= -- let me know if you have any questions if/when you try a run =D.
Hello Kix,
I have yet to "achieve" any of the achievements (; -- so I am not able to answer with 100% certainty; however, I do believe the sword breaks the demons shield.
I will edit the video description for clarity once I am able to set my little pie-ish hands on the sword to confirm it =o.
Let me know if you have any other questions (= ~ Pie.
My screen resolution is 1680x1050, although that does not really affect my recorder (I use Fraps).
I'm not exactly sure on the dimensions I used for the clips to be honest, as I lost my notes...
I have some other footage of claw fights, etc, and they were recorded at 830x580 (around that area). I'll try and find the exact dimension and send you it via CZcams PM later ~ Pie
Hey Anglo!
First, thanks for answering Stunner's question, and second.....congratz on the claws =D!!
Always nice to hear others have hit success there too (= ~ sounds like you pretty much have everything down, but let me know if you have any questions (or information to share ^^ -- always looking for more).
Hey MultiPie,
Adding on to what 10finland said, I'm pretty sure the sapphire needs to be cut before it'll work - but yea, that's about it ^^.
Thanks for taking the time to answer his question, finland (= ~ Pie
Hello Stunner,
Yea, what Anglo said (thanks Anglo =P) -- the inventories are more or less trying to show a guideline of what one might take; and thus may need to be adjusted depending on your levels.
Adding on to the whole "inventory thought", I'm nigh on finished with a "updated inventory" that has significantly boosted my hourly kill rate -- be sure to give the video description a look-see if you're interested, and let me know if you have any questions =D ~ Pie
Hello Jay,
The answer is yes; although I would not recommend it.
Their shield greatly lessens the damage you deal to them, and they switch prayers *much* quicker while their shield is active.
I use Piety while removing the shield, or 15% attack (depending if they're hitting me); however, you can protect melee for 3-4 hits if you'd like (if you protect anymore than that, you risk having them change to Range/Magic).
As always, remember to check out the video description for more info (= ~Pi
Hello ooclockoo,
Well, since I'm always learning/trying new things, I doubt it's quite "100% complete" -- but thank you for the kind comments =P.
Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for taking the time to post =D ~ Pie.
Hello Blind,
By this time, your membership might be reaching it's end, but as "Iamshortayee" stated, you receive the Darklight at the end of the "shadow of the storm" quest.
Thank you Shortayee for taking the time to answer =D! ~Pie
Hello X00,
I actually have never lost my Darklight, so I couldn't say for sure; however, it appears that Marlam/Jesse know, so I'd say try their advice first =P.
If you have trouble, let me know and I'll drop my Darklight/find the exact "knight".
And of course, and as always, be sure to check the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions.
Hello Repaerknoob,
Thank you (and the others) for the kind comments -- I don't always respond to all of them, as I tend to only answer the questions (to keep the video informative), but I do read each and every comment!
Congratz on the claws! It's been a while since I've seen a pair; although my teammate and I did get a dragon slice yesterday (= -- Pie
Oh, I was actually referring to lag when people watch the video on HD via youtube, not when the video is rendered.
Of course, having a "super uber" machine will help out with the editing/rendering =P -- but I think the HD lag might have been caused by one of the settings I used.
Meh, not sure, going to look in to it later -- let me know if you find anything out (=.
Boo! Why does everybody seem to know more about where/how to get the legendary darklight than me XD!? (*takes notes*)
And yesh, I actually labeled the FF song in the video description incorrectly -- will need to get around to changing that =X.
By the way, I couldn't help but notice, is the last part of your name (Kawi) a version of "kawaii" or "kawaisa"? I'm curious little Pie ye know ^^.
As always, be sure to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any Qs
Hello Gravity,
In answer to your question, it really varied from pair to pair....
For example, pair #3 and #4 came within three trips of each other; however, I believe I harvested over 1700+ blue charms before pair #2 came along =X.
Most of the time, I found people "usually" tend to pick them up between 200-400 kills (although I have seen people go much higher/lower)
Remember to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions.
Hey Brandon (=,
Yea, I really enjoyed making that part; although I accidentally used the wrong clip, hence, why the timing was off slightly =X.
Anyhoo, check out the description if you're planning on making a trip, and let me know if you have any questions!
Note: I highly recommend using "spot2", as I know for sure that is still fully operational -- there are a few minor adjustments needed to prevent "swarming" (which I will update ASAP); however, nothing that prevents the spot from being used
Hello AOS,
FRAPS - it is my favorite recorder out of all the ones I have used.
It is a "pay for product"; however, you can download a demo from their website, which will merely place a small transparent water logo near the top portion of the screen.
In regards to the render settings, I suggest watching the video released on Dec 8th by "IceflowStudios" -- should be the same settings as mine.
Let me know if you have any other questions, and be sure to check out the video description.
Hello Pked,
The complete song listing can be found in the video description *points to the right*.
Also, in answer to your question below, I'm not sure why the option would not be appearing for you provided you completed WGS/are using the sapphire lantern on the light creatures...
If you still have not figured it out, let me know via a CZcams PM and I'll see if we can figure out what the problem would be.
As always, be sure to check out the video description for more info ~ Pie.
Thanks Arkeu and Inmummbop (and of course, you too Austin =P)!
As always, remember to check out the video description for more info. In addition, if you have any questions that I might be able to answer -- let me know, and I'll try my best =D.
I find the most common problem is the lures, but once you get their patterns down, they're a piece of cake (or would it be pie...hmm...)
Hey Pryo =D -- glad to see you're still around!
I've been on an "extended break" from the Tormented Demons for quite some time (after harvesting 1500+ Blue charms, I wanted out!!).
However, drop me a mail via the Tube sometime when you're free, and perhaps we can work out a "duo trip" (=.
Agreed (= -- provided it doesn't lag up a storm =o!
Did it run well for you? I gave the video a test on two separate computers -- one ran ultra smooth, the other, ultra laggy -.-....
I'll be updated the video description (hopefully) soon, so be sure to check it out if you're interested in killing 'em.
Will be adding more info re: lures/dodging interruptions from other demons, as that seems to be the most common problem I've heard about.
Thanks for the comment Knight (: -- If you switched to HD mode, I do hope you restarted the video =o! I have no idea why to be honest, but for some reason if the video is not restarted it lags up a storm -.-..
Hello PSP,
Skillcapes are a better pick in this situation, simply due to the defense/prayer bonus.
Also, your arrows will not return to you at spot #1 or #2 due to the safe spot/rocks -- so besides a +4 range bonus, it's not worth it.
As always, be sure to check out the video description for extra info/inventories, and let me know if you have any questions (= ~ Pie
I used a program called "Fraps" -- it has amazing quality, although you will not want to use it as your "general purpose" recorder (unless you have a larger HD), due to the fact the clip size is quite large.
I would recommend using it for your videos, and picking up something like CamStudio for general use (much better than HyperCam2).
Change of topic: but be sure to check out the video description if you're interested in killing the TD's (= -- quite a bit of info there.
Hello PKN,
Well, if you can devote a certain amount of time per day doing the quest, you can get through them all relatively quickly.
I only really play an hour a day on the weekdays, and I still manage to squeeze in a few trips here and there (the inventory shown in the description is built for an hour/fast kills).
Cash wise, these guys are great, and have really paid off for me -- combine that with a little merchanting (note: I did not say manipulation clans =P), and you can make a buncha.
Hello Gunjan (= -- sorry for the late reply.
Anyhoo, in answer to your question, I usually just shoot him with my crossbow a few more times to get him to switch (they switch prayers far more quickly when their shield is up).
I believe it is possible to remove the shield with the darklight, even when the demon has protect melee on; however, it would be better use of your time to just range him a few more times.
As always, be sure to check out the video description for extra info ~ Good luck!
Hello Gidosmart,
This is for two reasons -- one, because I kept getting the "video description is too long" error, and two, it helps to keep things neat and tidy.
As always, let me know if you have any questions (= -- Pie
Hello DDS,
The speed of the video might have made it difficult to tell; however, the demons will lean back, shake, and roar before shooting their magical splash attack.
See 1:11 of the video for a slightly slower/closer example -- and as always, be sure to check out the video description for extra info (=.
Hello R34LF1 (feel like I'm talking to a robot),
Well, it goes without saying that things such as overload pots, high level prayers, etc drastically help.
But yes, the beauty of the Tormented Demons is they really can be killed even by "lower levels"
For example, I do not recommend using the Dhally for anything other than the special attack; however, you could only use range/hally to avoid their melee attack and "do fine".
As always, remember to check out the description for the extra info!
Hello Richboy,
Thank you (and the others below) for the kind comments -- it's really nice to see that the video has helped people (=.
Be sure to check the video description for extra info when you have time, and I will also be updating the lure pictures to reflect the changes made by the RuneTek5 update.
Should have things updated by Friday night/Sunday afternoon -- good luck with the demons! ~Pie
Still haven't found anything in a game that brings me the joy that those old claw drops did
It's been quite a while since I've logged in, but yeah, Tormented Demon slaying back in the day was so much fun (: -- good memories.
Hello Druidieh,
I suppose the answer would vary from person to person; however, no, I do not believe they are hard to master at all.
Considering the fact you are experienced at switching prayers/gear, and have maxed combat stats, they really should be a breeze for you once you learn the patterns/lures.
As always, remember to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions that are not covered there. ~Pie
Hello Bender,
Thank you (and the others below) for the kind comments, and a big congratz to both you and Omen on the claws =D!
With the recent "behavior changes", there is some information that needs tweaking in the video description; however, it's more or less still correct and might be worth a look-see if you're planning to return often (=.
After hearing so many recent reports of "I got claws", I'll have to schedule in a trip this week too ^^ ~ Pie.
Hello Mymy,
The song listing can be found in the video description *points to the right*.
And as always, be sure to give the other info in the description a read if you're interested in going sometime (= ~Pie
Hello Sooper,
The drop rate really varies from pair to pair =|.
For example, pair #3 and #4 came within three trips of each other; however, I believe I harvested over 1700+ blue charms before pair #2 came along =X.
I found people "usually" tend to pick them up between 200-400 kills (side note: I've received about an equal amount of pieces/claws)
As always, be sure to check the video description for extra info =D, and let me know if you have any questions ~ Pie
Hello Zierky,
The demons were updated, which effected the lures/how one deals with certain interruptions; however, spot two is still fully operational, and is my personal favorite.
I recommend checking out the "dealing with Interruptions" portion of the video description, as that might resolve your issue.
A bit short on time today, so send me a YT pm if you would like more information re: the lure/avoiding process -- I will then have more characters to respond to your question =P.
An excellent guide. Very well done with this, great stuff in the desc. box too.
5 Star guide hands down, good job mate
Hello Barry,
More or less, it's really just food based (for your turtle inventory), such as pizza/sharks -- hence, why I did not bother to show "what to take" ^^.
Anyhoo, be sure to give the video description a read if you're interested in going, and let me know if you have any questions (= ~ Pie.
I had the fruitbat listed in the video description; however, after watching my brother use the Bunyip for dozens of runs without a hitch, I ended up removing it.
My reasoning was for the sake of maximum kills/hour, as one does not want to waste time walking around picking up/storing food.
If the bat works for you, that's great (= - and I would recommend it to anyone that is prone to taking damage.
I'll get around to re-adding it to the video description, and giving you/original guy credit.
Hello David,
As Lagolas stated, the Unicorn is great for the Tormented Demons because of the Unicorn's healing ability -- the special can be used three times (before it needs to recharge), and heals 15% of your HP.
Be sure to check out the video description for more info! And a big thank you to Lagolas for taking the time to answer the question (= ~Pie
By "it" I assume you mean waiting until they switch to melee/safe spot'ing 'em?
If so, then yes, it still works -- although if you have a unicorn, I would recommend whip/DFS (or GS) vs. just using an hally.
Of course, here 'n there they will start attacking with range/magic again -- but for the most part, it's fairly simple once they switch to melee.
Remember to check out the video description for some extra info, and let me know if you have any other questions (= -- Good luck!
Hey Angel,
If it makes you feel better, I've hit quite a number of "dry sprees" too =X.
However, my brother and I got two pairs of claws within an hour last weekend =o - both on the same trip!!
In the end, you just need to keep going (= -- If anything, just try to schedule in a run or two a week (so they won't get tedious/boring) and enjoy the charms until the claws come along (=.
Also, keep tweaking your inventory! I am now pulling 26-28 kills/hour verses my previous 20 -- big difference =o
Hello Jerkward,
Actually, with a heavier food based inventory/defensive based gear, you would still be able to kill a decent amount each trip.
If you're looking for something new, I would highly recommend giving the Tormented Demons a "looksee" -- once you know the lures, they're very easy, and I dare say, very profitable (=.
Be sure to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions! ~Pie
Hello TJtheHAWK,
Yes, Piety and eagle eye will gain you far more kills than using Turmoil -- which I do have.
Anyway, be sure to check out the video description for the extra info, and let me know if you have any other questions (= -- sometimes I don't have that much time to reply and have to write quickly, but you (and others) comment again if something is not clear. - Pie
Hello there shadow - sorry for the late reply!
I actually do not even bring the halberd now; although it is an excellent weapon for beginners, and for the special attack.
I would recommend using the newest GS inventory (shown in the description) as a draft, and build something off of that to suit your needs.
The inventory in the description is not my latest; however, it's more or less correct (= -- I'll try to update them as I conduct more "test". ~Pie
About three months ago, to be precise =o - hai Jack =P.
Be sure to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions that are not covered there (= -- good luck on the claw drops!
Provided you know the lures/patterns well, you would actually be able to kill quite a few a trip.
There's really no harm in trying to be honest; however, do realize your stats are lower than what I would recommend.
Your summoning is also rather low, so you will need to modify the inventories shown in the video (or in the description) to more of a "food based" inventory.
Be sure to check the video description for more info, and let me know if you have any questions that I can answer. ~Pie
^ Exactly -- thanks for answering his question Skimmel =D!
To quote Wikipedia "Area of effect (or AoE) is a term used in many role-playing and strategy games to describe attacks or spells that affect multiple targets within a specified area."
Hello Mana (=,
Switching to the Fruitbat after your tortoise is out of food is a very creative idea; however, since it only takes about two minutes to reach the demons, I'd suggest you simply teleport back and restock for another run.
I do not have experience using the bat there, and I do know some recommend it; however, I believe one will spend too much time juggling/picking up food, which will lower there hourly kill rate.
While you learn, use a tortoise/heavy pray/fast kill inventory ~ Pie.
@Drago462,
The red/blue cape you receive after fighting Nomad certainly does help. Beyond that, try to just take more prayer pots :P!
Your secondary focus should be trying to achieve the highest hourly kill rate possible, using heavy prayer/pots (overloads help this muchly).
Be sure to check the video description for the extra info, and thanks for the rating =D -- oh, and in case your wondering, your primary focus should be having fun ^^.
It varied really -- my second pair of claws took *ages*, where #4 and #5 came within 3 trips of each other.
I only have about an hour of playing time scheduled during the weekdays (more "potential playing times" on Friday nights/Sunday afternoons), but I usually try to make (at least) one trip a week.
As always, be sure to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any other questions. ~Pie
Pretty much as you said, summoning would be nice (even if you can only reach a Fire Titan) -- the rest of your stats are fine to start.
If anything, while you're first starting, i would recommend substituting some of the pots for sharks, and you do not have to start using the Bunyip until you get the patterns/lures down.
Quick replies tonight -- but let me know if you have any questions that I can answer (=, and be to check out the video description for more info.
(post to Branmanss continued)
In regards to piling issues:
This can be a tricky one to explain in text, as the exact method to "break a pile" changes slightly depending on the demon(s) locations.
I will update the pictures in the video description by Friday/Sunday to explain better -- until then, I will send you a YT pm and try to explain the most common issues.
I would try to explain here, but to be honest, there's not enough characters -- I should be able to send you a message 2night. ~Pie
Hello MultiPie,
Well, that depends what you define as "easy" -- personally, I find killing tormented demons to "be a breeze", so in that sense they're "easy".
However, the drop ratio (like anything else) is random; thus, one can not really say it's "easy".
Also, I'm not sure if I understand your question "how was it to make that lamp" -- which lamp would that be o.O?
Anyhoo, be sure to check out the video description for the latest inventory/info, and let me know if you have any questions =D!
Hey Sn00py -- glad to hear it helped (=.
I usually just finished the kill by making the one in front go melee, and protecting magic from the other; however, I might have a way....
Try moving to the west side of the pillar directly north of the "safe spot" (about 10 steps) -- I have linked a new image (just 4 you) in the video description under the "Common interruption in Spot #2" picture.
This should "trap" the extra demon there -- Let me know how it goes (= ~~ Pie.
Love the way this video is set out, and the music is Brilliant! Great job!
Hello Pureownshard,
Purchase a high timer grave / have an extra sapphire lamp in your bank, and you're pretty much covered if something happens.
I would not recommend using void, as it's quite a hassle to switch, and you'll actually get more KPT using a more traditional setup (see video description).
Anyway, I'm going to dash through a couple more questions before bed -- let me know if you have anymore!
Hello YTpoint (=,
That would be a 17second clip of "The Flood" by "Escape the Fate".
Be sure to give the video description a read if you're interested in going sometime - also, the full song listing can be found at the bottom of it =P. ~Pie
Hello 16Sabre,
That was a clip from a sample song that I had from quite some time back, so the name does not come to mind at present -- sorry.
The full list listing can be found at the base of the video description, which I do highly recommend you check out (for the extra TD info/inventory changes).
Let me know if you have any other questions (= - Pie
Aw.....may I ask which spot you were killing them in?
If it was spot#2, I believe I may have the solution to your problem (I was just there yesterday, and "updated" my previous way of dealing with interruptions).
And you should keep trying -- I've received my fair share of Lava rune drops too =P (but, I also got Claw #6 there yesterday too).
Let me know if you have any questions, and be sure to check out the video description if you have not done so already ~~ Pie.
In re: to sounds -- piety/their AOE attack is your best friend.
They will almost NEVER continue their previous attack style after using their AOE -- so if he was using magic and then uses the AOE, he will switch to either Range or Melee.
Knowing this, you could:
1. Protect Magic/turn on Piety
2. Switch to Protect Range
If you use #1, you're avoiding the AOE and hoping he switches to melee; however, if he goes to range, you have Piety defense to help protect.
Out of room -- will PM the rest
Hello Jito,
Haha, well granted there was quite a bit of video footage where I got nothing worth mentioning =P....
If you keep going, you're sure to get one eventually (= -- oh, before you go, be sure to check out the video description for the extra info =D.
And of course, thank you (and Pienaar, to save space ^^) for the kind comments =D -- let me know if you have any questions.
Hello Golsumi,
Yesh, it's an awesome song (= -- there's so many variations of it too....
To stay on topic *cough* - be sure to check out the video description for the extra/updated info, and let me know if you have any questions =D - Pie
Hello Xtred,
Much of it depends on your gear/skill, rather than your levels -- the biggest thing is knowing how to fight each demon 1v1, knowing the attack patterns, etc.
Level recommendations can be found in the video description, so I suggest checking that out (as well as information re: the lures/common problems)
Summoning plays a critical role here, as one can simply not be as efficient without the proper pets; however, sharks CAN be used as a substitute -- you just won't last as long.
Hello Pyro,
Sorry for the late reply, things have been busy )= -- in answer to your question:
It would be a matter of personal preference (shield w/GS). I used the Zamorak book when I brought the SGS -- see the video description.
Personally, I prefer the whip/DFS + hally for specials; however, the hourly kill rate is so close, it's more a matter of personal preference (=.
Let me know if you have any questions, and be sure to check the video description for extra info! ~Pie
Hey Ray (=,
Thanks for the kind comments, and I hope you find a pair of claws soon-ish =D!
Be sure to log your hourly kill rate while you're first starting, as you can pay attention to what increases/decreases your ending total, and make adjustments accordingly.
Oh, and if you have not done so already, be sure to give the video description a read 'n let me know if you have any questions =D ~Pie
I musta watdched that ending 100 times, most epic guide ever
Hello blizard0617,
That would be a (very) short clip of "the flood" by escape the fate -- the full song listing can be found at the bottom of the video description.
Be sure to check it out, and let me know if you have any questions (=!
Very, Very detailed guide. The spots you use are the exact same as mine, the tactics with luring them are the same as well!
Very nice guide, gratz on the claws, hope for more to come!
Hey Rod (=,
Most of the answers to your questions can be found on the Fraps website, under the "support" tab -- this will walk you through each of the options.
(Just as a side note, you can set the save folder under the the "Movies" tab in Fraps)
In regards to the lag, make sure you have the overlay display on (you can then see what your FPS, and set Fraps to run at/near there).
If you have additional questions re: Fraps, go ahead and drop me a YT mail and I'll respond there in more detail.
Hello Team,
I might eventually do a Bandos solo guide; although I hesitate to create guides on subjects that are (more or less) already covered =P....
If anything, I'll see if there's a unique "twist" I can put on it to yield a better kill count for each trip -- if so, I'll consider creating a guide to it.
Not sure about the "welfare gear" part, as I try to do everything "the best I can" (ie: best gear) - but we'll see (=. ~Pie
Yea, it's been a while =S -- my plan is to make videos on things I feel I know enough about, as to not waste people's time (both mine and theirs =P).
I usually do something (in this case, the demons) for quite a while before I make a video guide about it -- hopefully, my next video will not take quite so long (;.
Very hard to say Austin, as I stopped counting after a while....
I harvested around 1700 Blue Charms (still have them, actually), and for a while, it seemed like I was averaging around 50 blues a trip -- judging from that, I would have killed at least 1400 or so.
Please remember to check out the video description for extra info 'n such -- this includes all of the "drops of interest" I have received thus far.
Skater already answered, but yes, you can (my brother boosted to start the quest too).
At the risk of sounding like a broken record...ahem....
"be sure to check out the video description for extra info, and let me know if you have any questions that are not covered" (= ~Pie
Hello Killerberdo,
Due to time restrictions, I pretty much only solo during the week, and already have a number of duo partners as well =X.
So, I'll pass on the offer for now, but thank you, and good luck at the TDs =D!
Oh, somehow I missed replying to this one -- sorry about that Cabbage.
The Terrorbird is fine; although obviously things such as the Tortoise/Bunyip/Unicorn are better =P.
I would go ahead and just finish up the quest first, and then make a "test run" to see how it goes (it will get easier as you learn their patterns/lures).
And also, be sure to check out the description for the lures/info - the #1 problem that people seem to have is getting interrupted, which is easy to fix if you know how.
Best guide ever, Shocking that it was made in '09 and still the best. :3
Hello Imwit (and bob?),
Haha, I certainly wish that was the case -- sometimes people forget all the video footage that did NOT make it in to a video =P!
This was quite a while after I had experience killing the demons, and I had already received two pairs of claws prior.
I have received multiple pairs since then, but do note, I have had my fair share of "dry runs" too, so I wouldn't suggest throwing your monitor out the window if you don't get one on your first run (unless you need a new one).
Oh come now, it can't be *that* bad........what, it really is?
Well, thankfully CZcams has a volume control option -- so I suppose you could mute the sound/load up your favorite song if it comes to that ^^.
Not sure if you're interested in making a trip sometime or not, but if so, be sure to check out the video description for some extra tid'bits of info =D! ~Pie
Glad to hear it helped (= -- in case you're interested, I believe I kill 20-23 an hour using the DFS/whip, and 20-25 using the godsword inventory (both shown in the video description).
I still prefer the whip/DFS, and will need to run a few additional test to be sure on the hourly kill rate.
Let me know if you have any questions, and be sure to check out the video description for extra info =D! ~Pie
More or less - in your case, I would say yes (due to your levels/previous experience).
If anything, you could substitute one of (each) the super attack/strength and range potions to bring some food on the side.
You can also bring one more pouch to make the trip longer; however, due to the (very) short sprint required to get there, I wouldn't really suggest it.
As a side note: I usually averaged 50 blue charms a trip.
Be sure to check out the video description if you have not done so already!
In regards to the render settings, I suggest watching the video released on Dec 8th by "IceflowStudios" -- should be the same settings as mine.
Be forewarned: I found my video (& others) can cause MASSIVE amounts of video lag on lower end machines.
Because of this, you may want to "tweek" the render settings a little to see if you can find the "perfect settings".
If you do happen to find those uber settings, let me know =P -- I'll do the same when I run test in the future. ~Pie
