We’ve broken down our strategies for the first five bosses in the Runescape game, which should give you enough of a foothold to figure out the rest of them. Some general tips for bosses, before we get specific: There’s almost always a shortcut. You can usually find a quick path from the nearest lantern to each boss, and once you know where you’re going, can even run/roll your way past any enemies between the two. Stay back at first. Most bosses have a variety of close-up and ranged moves, and if you keep your distance, you can usually get a feel for what you’re up against. Don’t go into a fight with a ton of echoes. An obvious tip, but one to keep in mind. Try to go in with as few echoes as possible, and just let go of whatever ones http://www.rskfc.com you lose the first time you fight. It’s much less stressful when it’s just you and the boss, with nothing else on the line. Beware the boss’s transformation. Most every boss in the Runescape game has at least one transformation that occurs when you get their health to a certain point. Maybe they’ll become more aggressive, or start healing, or being launching more ranged attacks, or drop their ranged attacks and start quickly closing for melee. Whatever it is, be ready for it, and be ready to switch your strategy quickly in response. Remember that you can call for help. Once you obtain the beckoning bell, you can always call for someone to come help you beat a boss that has you stuck. Granted, it diminishes the feeling of accomplishment that comes with beating a boss solo, but co-op fights are usually just as exciting and white-knuckle as solo fights. And with that, here are some tips for the first(ish) five bosses in the Runescape game. The Cleric Beast The Cleric Beast is located on the bridge near where you start; the route to it is detailed a bit higher in this article. It’s a good idea to fight it early, since your first encounter with it will cause the doll in the Hunter’s Dream to wake up and unlock the ability to level up your character. It may look intimidating, but the Cleric Beast isn’t actually all that difficult to beat. Keep some distance, and watch out for its powerful left arm. When it commits to an attack, use your lock-on dodge to quickly close and dish out some damage. You can generally dodge to your left when it winds up to attack you and get behind it to deal some more damage. Molotovs can really whittle its health down from range, and when it leaps toward you, roll forward and you’ll probably wind up behind it with a good chunk of time to land heavy attacks. Be patient, keep your eyes open, and you’ll be fine. Father Gascoigne Father Gascoigne is the other boss in Central Yharnam. He’s the first hunter-style enemy you’ll face, but certainly not the last, so he’s a good introduction to the fundamentals of taking on other hunters. He’s very fast, and you’ll want to keep moving and keep him in your sights at all times.
