#Yama - May 14

Could redemption instead
doesn't the chip damage hit higher than the hp you need to camp?
Don't think it hits 15s
From what ive seen 6s
Is the wiki accurate that dossier is 1/12 solo but 1/24 duo?
Should be. We had a lot of back and forth of people here and wiki with what should/shouldn't be scaled for contribution
yea does feel like that atleast
If you want papers don't you just go kill billybob demons
Being solo locked sounds miserable
Solos are fun in small doses because you actually have to do the boss mechanics.
Duos are 
have people figured out which demons are best to kill
drop rates on wiki all just say rare
Solos are nice switch up from when no parter for a bit
Would feel miserable to glog solo tho
Fucking up solos gives me good opportunity to practice mage p3
i haven't gotten any forfeit breath contracts yet from demons, i think it might be due to undead grasp alwas wearing off right as the demon dies, since the death animation takes longer than the bind holds for
has anyone had success using that spell or should i be using standard/ancient freezes instead
gotten quite a few with the spell
ok must just be rng then
No they are just ~4x rarer
than bloody blows is
yeah i have noticed rates seem inconsistent
I did get one though
in the 42 kills i did with spec last cycle, probably only 20 were actually killed with a spec, and i got 4 drops lol
meanwhile 150+ grasp kills nothing
took me 200ish
does the sigil only change color if you kill them with the correct method, or does it just always change after 40ish kills
but, are you doing the Jedi slide method for 3t?
40ish
cool so once i have lots of spec drops i can just afk everything
the dossier rate is even
the demons rate arent
so I think for forfeit yama is better
would it be
wiki says 1/12 for dossier, 1/7.1 for forfeit
3 every 84 kills seems ass
on avg
contracts are still just ass in general
fine for mains because yama has them
now they just exist to fuck with irons
thanks arcane
honestly overall they seem really quick from demons
this is like 15 minutes of loot
I do not want to kill demons
and 4/5 of the methods are fully afk
wym by this
afk crossbow, afk mage, afk 2h, afk ice barrage ig
yeah can afk all but spec
i couldnt find it on the wiki, what is the drop rate of contracts if you do it the glyph way vs if you don't
can you even get contracts without doing the proper way
i don't think you can but i could be wrong
afaik you can only get corresponing contracts to your last hit
sigil only matters for increasing rate
but its last hit that determines the contract drop
you can easily bring all the gear you need for all 5 methods though in one inv
i see, ty
so every 42 kills you when sigil swaps just switch to the corresponding gear and keep afking
worth doing that to speed through glyphs you don't want faster?
in the last 40 minutes ive had 10 drops, 4 bloodied blows and 6 glyphic lol
if all you want is one specific contract, you should just use the style for that contract regardless of sigil
its nice that the spec contract drop rate seems high, should be able to get plenty of those fast and then can just ignore that one
are yall bothering to get slayer tasks or nah
no
No
if you kill a demon with ice barrage does it give you the one for spells, the one for binding, or both?
it at least gives the one for binding right?
im on the spells one now, i thought that was just for increased rate?
Same question as the 2h one+spec one ig?
If you bclaw something, can you get both?
Or either? Or limited to a specific one
i thought you could only get drops from the one you're assigned
I thought sigils increase drop %

ok nvm im wrong it does just double rates
i guess you can maybe roll for two at a time then
I don't know for sure, but I only ever got the bind ones while ice barraging, never the mage spell ones
Surely someone would've gotten a double drop by now if possible though
Idt I've seen one
so are you guys ice barraging instead of undead grasp
atm yes but i might switch to water spells
yeah, i just swap spellbooks if i get that one
im just using grasp so i dont have to change books
its not long to bank
When I do grasp I use demon bane (highest) and demonbane (middle) to lower its hp
Isn’t afk at all but it’s fast
[[undead grasp]]
Wiki links found:
https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Undead_Grasp
not bad
im hitting 32 max with it, minus a few mage switches to save inv space
probably maxes like 35ish in bis
cheaper than ice barrage
it also has a sick animation which is extremely relevant
with how absurdly high the spec contract rates seem to be, im guessing SR axe was not intended to be usable
they probably assumed people would only be able to do spec finishes occasionally rather than every kill
might be an abuse early and often angle
Can you purge staff spec and get the refunded spec?
i heard purge staff doesnt work as a spec finish
nally good for 2h weapon? could ember/scythe i guess but lol
i used grasp
ice barrage so expensive ;w;
I've just been killing a demon with spec every time I do a Yama trip
gotten 4 contracts that way since yesterday's patch
i got 4 spec contracts in the span of 5 minutes earlier this morning
overall 2/3rds of my contracts this morning have been spec
drop rate feels like 1/10 maybe which is absurd
what's funny is I've gotten a ton of them off sigil, but the one sigil I got I finished most of them with spec and got 0
which spec
2/4, was wanting oathplate to finish Vard lol
🧑🍳
has anyone stat spied yama on the glyphic attenuation contract (weak to crush), wondering if anyone has stats so i can calc my bis
I haven't
I remember gnomonkey doing it during stream yday if you're bothered searching through that
lmfao
scythe felt very bad when I took it for a small trip yesterday, also I missed both hammers (not even sure if they work)
So it feels like he's crush weak, but still tanky
i shall hasta whack i think

Dumb question
why is purge hitting 80s on awakened yama flare
when it hits 70s on non awakened yama flare
do they just have more demonbaneweak?
Hmmm
idk but after watching that im gonna have to learn the melee method
maybe they just gave it higher damage on them to keep using the staff consistent or somthin
personally I find a lot of aoe sounds adds liveliness to the game. Though I'll get used to it, kinda nice for the shitty p3s
ty so much king ❤️
Do you have a good white list that has all the relevant bosses?
I’ve been hesitant to switch because of making a list
no
I did all this because the mage/range actually do have pre sound cues but they sound very similar so it's super hard to differentiate with anything else going imo
I’ve muted sounds some places where there’s a lot of noise, but it’s an annoying process tbh
I only rly find the waves to be distracting noise wise
I haven't actually touched this boss since it came out - if I just care about double DC for now (want to wait until at least infernal cape for oathplate if not just delaying until I get a scythe and it actually has value anywhere other than vard or more yama), do y'all think it's worth learning some sort of melee method or just do chiller mage kills?
only weird thing about these is the fireball from the red glyph also gets muted
is that the one used for oath worm etc contracts?
it takes like 5 minutes to mark tiles and learn fly methods for p3
and p1/2 melee is just as easy as mage
definitely melee as much as you can its much faster and cheaper
alright. what's the fly method pug groups are using, just basic donofly?
doesn't matter
also how common are ffa groups
you can use your own tiles
Most people use donofly, some use monofly, but all methods are compatible
I have two tilesets, gregsurf v2 for solo/host and then the modified version of that for non-host duos
I just use tile sets to flick between them
Hope this helps
Why'd you delete your initial message?
u guys holding dossiers or do u think this is as good as they will get
I don't see a reason to open mine till I'm going for the cosmetic
I'm just opening as I get them
afk forefeit breath has got to be less than 1 per hour
at least it seems to be the easiest one
do we know of anyone that's completed an acquisition contract?
i have 2 shards, an oathplate, and a horn contract that would finish this boss but i'm not touching it til i know it's actually doable lmao
kirby is gonna grind it out allegedly
im hoping in the coming days there'll be some example kc with melee for all of the contracts people were shadowing
Do we know anything about the oath contract
ngl if i had an oath contract i would probably just drop it for alt gp
odds of getting it on first try have to be mega low
and its too expensive to practice on an alt
assuming it is different mechanically from the other cheaper contracts
isnt it the same as worm but solo instead of duo
yes
bonus damage from prayer
glyph attenuation
ic
is there a reason demonbane has a chance to miss on voidflares in Bloodies Blows?
saturated heart + augury
most of the time i'll max hit them, but sometimes it just completely misses
bug
Yeah just have to pass an accuracy check afaik as its not weak to demonbane
Can you one shot the void flares in bloody blows with shadow
Yeah 11-16 hp should one shot in max
Sorry it is still demonbane idk why it can fail acc roll though
Probs lower without ward (f)
Not sure how much lower though
w00t. I can make the helm, but I won't get the clog for it
you don't find the id 4997 distracting?
well I did already have that one muted
dunno owhy they like those
same thing at nex iirc?
i stayed
meh
fuck mining
i was about to break down chest to make legs
it's apparently the sound when the boss gets hit or smth?
but it felt so bad
just baffling
and u ahave to mine 😭
I'm actually kind of digging this with the one click 3 ticker
plus i got fucked on dossiers
it's when the falling p3 things are in the air
it's a td sound effect iirc
i saved em ttil wedsnesday and they fixed on thursday
so i was like eh
maybe i stay for contracts see if i get lucky
4997 is definitely yama getting hit by anything
it shows up on p1 and p2

for bloodied blows, it seems like if u get purple glyph start you cant do the double protect tech for 4x flares
because next lap around, the fire glyph doesn't regenerate in time
just happened to me 2x in a row
For sound swapper plugin to make the mage range attacks easier 🙂
.
ooo
sound swapper
that is genius
what is the syntax
i'm learning dono. can someone please explain why did the flare spawn? did i need to wait 1 more tick with that spawn?
you got a delayed spawn
how does it know what file to use
you put it in .runelite/SoundSwapper
what should i have done in that situation?
if your friend is maging p3 tell them to kill the void flare like a good kitten, and speed up a tick by doing a 4t emberlight where you're supposed to 5t it
first and foremost, you should avoid causing yourself to get a delayed spawn
- dont run south at end of judge
- don't miss at tick at judge relative to your partner
but you should have realized that you were delayed because your partner attacked before you could move, so you should have waited to get into cycle
what this is terrible advice, you can't just skip the 5t emberlight in the donofly cylce, you'll get meleed
if you're delayed 1t and get meleed you can
it's a fake melee that you don't take damage from, and just means you're behind one tick
i think what ur describing is too advanced for him
he should be focused on not making this mistake or just entering cycle by waiting when he is delayed
and not some strategy to optimize ticks this happens lol
you can't really ensure you never get a delayed spawn that I know of, when I do duo melees I just always wait to enter cycle for yama to raise hand, which you are right, is the more responsible thing to do
but it's not that advanced to "speed up a tick" imo
i never get delayed spawns
100% success rate
i know specifically what causes delayed spawns, and i avoid those triggers
I always miss the first hit intentionally in the cycle cuz it's always predictable + allows me to click on inv/prayers/spells so I find it a lot more reclined
you can't control whether your partner misses ticks
#1368632190723821729 message this is the timing
yea maybe its just because i play with consistent partners
i think perhaps if they lose multiple ticks then it's just fricked
but if they just lose 1 tick, its them who is getting delayed
not me
safest thing is just to go to 2nd hit tile and enter when yama does his animation imo
but normally mage duos are fine to just kill a voidflare on entry
yeah obv if you enter the cycle correctly you would keep doing it the normal way
this is really misleading tho
but if you are behind a tick it's important to know you can "catch up" on the 5t part by doing a 4t hit instead
it's saved me a couple times
ur not "speeding up a tick", ur just completely skipping the starting hit of the cycle, and instead entering at the "1" hit
ur not doing something when ur supposed to do the 5t emberlight
you're still doing the 5t emberlight exactly when ur supposed to do it
if you weren't, then the cycle would be fricked
if you get delayed 1t spawn and get meleed on entry, if you just do 4t emberlight hits for the first rotation of the cycle and then go back to the normal cycle it works
better than failing without having optimized for it first
like obviously it's not what you should do because you shouldn't end up in that situation but it's good to know
its better to just have a more straightforward plan for people who are making mistakes in the first place
it helps to know too because if you lose a tick in the cycle somewhere and realize you can fix it in the exact same way
if i was playing in a duo where my partner was so wildly inconsistent that he would lose multiple ticks at judge and potentially offset me with respect to him (if that's possible, I'm a little skeptical), then I would just wait to attack at the start instead of risking melees
yeah that's the appropriate thing to do, I agree
i wanna see the clip from his POV though of jodge
greg i think you way overestimate most peoples skill
probably 99% of players miss ticks at judge
no im not, im arguing in favor of low skill
not losing ticks while running across stones, while changing weapons and attacking is hard
I've just been swapping weapons the tick before I get unstalled idk if that's good or not
i've read that telling my duo to step on stone before judge dies will put him 1 tick back. would that have worked?
you have a better answer for the question "what should I do to not get meleed on the first hit" but there is also an answer for "if I get meleed on the first hit how do I fix my cycle"
that should delay ur duo partner
so if ur the only one meleeing
I think that would gaurantee that ur on the correct tick
there's definitely some merit to your suggestion
i think that only really applies if you have a mage partner who will take care of the void flare
but im just taking a step back and instead of saying, "here's how we deal with it when it happens", let's focus on preventing it from happening
correct, if you have an inconsistent judge partner who is also donoflying, 100% of the time just don't do the 1st hit and prevent it from ever happening
but i agree that it's good to have a plan when it does happen too
but yeah just knowing how to "catch up a tick" if you recognize you've lost a tick somewhere is valuable, there's a few points in the cycle where you can tell if you're behind somewhere, and you can fix it on the 5t part before it turns into a melee
Does anybody have a solution for this problem on bloodied blows?
I like the strategy but it seems to only work on fire glyph spawn, not shadow glyph
Due to the issue shown in the video
The alternative is that I have to kill the fire flares manually to save the fire glyph, since apparently it doesn't regenerate in time
er well I don't think it necessarily tied to the spawn 100%, it's also related to void flares happening at the certain time or not
It seems like nobody actually has a backup plan for the videos I'm watching, do they just gg rip if it fails?
This is my second completion of all the 5 radiant kit pieces since i didn't record the first completion.
Forfeit Breath Contract - Easiest one by far, its basically a normal yama fight with stamina pots, avoid unnecessary damage to not get drained. Ring of Endurance is really good for this, giving you twice the amount of energy per stamina sip ...
same thing would have happened here if the fight went on longer
thanks for this. no problems anymore with mage duo
when I find a melee duo from the entrance and he wants to "dono". do I tell him to do the same and wait? I've never done melee duo before
he should know to wait, its just a mechanic of melee
there's no concrete answer to this because people do the boss in a lot of different ways atm & there's no standard practice yet that I'm aware of
generally, if they don't discuss anything with you and they fuck up, it's up to them to fix it but realistically both of you are gonna lose a kill if they don't so my advice is to just go over the entire fight beforehand
it's really annoying for the time being but it kinda is what it is
Is this summary correct for solo melee p3 methods?
Greg's donofly is less dps but consistent dealing with balls as long as you stay in rotation.
Red eye jedi's solofly - gotta react to fires north-south or east-west but easy to recover & get back into cycle. Can deal with balls either 3t or 5t
Kirby's nofly - less refined version of solofly, requiring attention paid to the boss attack cycle. Much harder but can adapt to maximize dps for wr attempts? (I'm not positive)
All donofly methods are exactly the same DPS, and don't take advantage of the tick speedups from fireballs. Gregsurf gains a tick when killing the 2nd jelly with purging staff spec that some methods don't take advantage of
Redeye's solofly forces one particular cycle in order to do the same movements to take advantage of the tick speedups. Because it forces one cycle, it loses a few ticks here and there, but should be gaining a few ticks over any fly method.
Kirby air ride (nofly) isn't one consistent cycle, but is rather the act of taking advantage of every possible tick/tick save by just adjusting to whatever cycle you are on if you lose a tick/get good/bad RNG on spawns/fireballs. This is likely what people will do for WR attempts
how are the soul rune shop stocks looking?
Me last night at wizard's guild
So i'm not interested in WRs. Would you consider red eye jedi's method to be significantly harder than gregfly?
are we getting true soul altar eventually
Still mad they screwed over extracts for soul runes
Seems a lot harder cause you actually have to know the boss/timings and act on them on the fly
Donofly/Greg etc. are all like red x godwars where you just be tick perfect and follow tiles
I would say it is moderately harder, as you need to understand the Yama's 7t cycle and react to the 50/50 of fireball spawn
menaphos
probably runefest winter 2025 release august 2026
not timeline just guessing
heard rumours at some point that they wanted it before sailing but that's not happening now
i see
surely they could’ve made it work decently for zeah or something
you might have to tweak the balance just for souls but you could make it work
no it's the fake soul altar :)
Yeah exactly
they made blood essence work there right
real
what’s the difference
I'm pretty sure blood essence predates the blood altar?
but i think buying is just fasteer anyways no?
like way faster
even if using extracts
nex
they were pretty close
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1V1zcvwefyOMYL5kWdhCUlXJ2NQaqfz2Ddb2WdCg_nn0/edit if only there was a spreadsheet for this question
sotf and nex feel very similar time in my head
I prefer scar bloods saves some coin
im p sure essence was a thing before
cause i remember using it at the old altar
is there any reasons for mains to use scar at all or is that just strictly a ironman haven lol
really?
cosmics were like that a couple weeks ago
dang
scar is the price ceiling on runes
but somebody has to enforce it
but also that somebody can be literally one person nuking the price
makes sense
anyone wants to do duo fly pm me
yea and not to toot my own horn, but also mine solves all waves (single + multi) in the same simple set of tiles, whereas every other method I've seen has advanced custom solutions to multi waves at different points in the cycle
I see what u did there
is it just me or are kills suddenly taking way longer than normal this patch?
I've gone from frequent sub-5 minute solos to none under 6 minutes despite hitting the same number of arclight specs and all that
I felt that too for the last of my kc
Maybe i just got super lucky at the beginning
I guess it's possible, it just seems egregiously off
like I'm having to do full circles of glyphs that I'm not mentally ready for since it's never taken so long to phase
p3 always going to second orbs and I'm like "wtf do I do"
Ye idk especially the update day after yama release
He felt so tanky
I was getting sub 5 kills so often
Them going into 5;50s randomly, still gotta say p3 2nd jellies were rare af
But like p1-p2 felt so much longer
If I wanted to colorcode a different path for jellies, would there be any issues with jelly 2 being killed under Yama?
you would just barely not get hit by doing that, so yea it would work
@uneven breach i think that's a little unnecessary though once you do it a few times, it will be super intuitive what to do
it's not much to memorize
but to each their own
Hell yeah
I appreciate that, but I am just the worst at memorization
You cooked with the tile reuse but I like to leave notes for future Kevin who doesn’t remember as much as current Kevin.
😭
did you record it?
i did!
this did not work
did i do something wrong?
they're aoe, are they not
I don't think I've ever quite liked bossing as much as when I'm just yapping in a chiller donofly duo
Anyone got the clip of the starting from 1 tile for a fly method and timing based on Yamas finger snap?
Kinda wanna just brain off on FFA worlds when I'm duoing and delayed. Relying on teammates for cycle seems not reliable.
Hmm, he's farther away than my 1 tile also
Oh wait I think still 2 ticks away so should work
Thanks!
Yall think the contracts or mechs of the fight r gonna get easier? Was watching gnomes video on it but only watched the 1st 5-10 mins
if they don't then i'm really not interested in trying them, they sound miserable and i don't even have the required item yet
The kit contracts seem pretty reasonable for what they are
So it just seems like you click right when you see Yama go to snap
Yeh
React to snap though don't predict
From two ticks away
Yeah got it
I think my issue was I was predicting when I tried it a couple of times
I could see them making it so you can't splash on bloodied blows flares at p3. That would technically make it easier
Yeah thats what I was thinking, no way in hell am I gonna grind greater/black demons for contracts to fail continuously
At least regular oathplate looks just as good as the white set.
tyty
was a little misleading because this tooltip says area sounds
i think it's just a mistake in the plugin
Can u send a ss of ur entire settings for the plugin? I was also trying to do this last night but I messed up somewhere I think
Yeah regular looks better imo, but it looks a lot like hcim gear but it goes better with inferno than the white set
so I put "10272,10263" under "Custom Area Sounds"?
5 of the pet contracts now
if I mess up the "infinite cycle" method, is there any way to get back into the cycle, or its gg?
you can get back into it but it's based on the boss's overall cycle not just its 7t attack cycle, it is not like getting back into 4:1
Yeah I generally like Gregfly a lot but my biggest issue with it is just that if you fuck up at all it’s basically gg on that kill
thats when you naked mage kill it lol
I did that when learning when I kept mage swaps but now I have no mage gear anymore
Also sometimes for gregfly the 1st void flares is out of range which sometimes trips me up
Unless I’m mistaken?
Is there an explanation on how donofly works if I mess up I have no clue how to get back in if there’s a simple fix?
Haha, someone just asked the same thing
thats why you take robes
Yeah, guess it’s a little harder for 2 kill trips if I’m -3 slots for robes
sgs
any adjustments y'all would make to this setup for a beginner?
meanwhile doing solo mages just ppot gated
heart with purging not that good imo
its good
idk i feel like just learn donofly and ur meleeing all the time pmuch
oh, i can bank the bandos tassets i guess - same melee max hit with blue moon
yeah the plan is to donofly, just mostly wondering about how many mage switches for mistakes/judge + is bringing both defense reduction and burning claws worth it
personally i dont rrly bother with mage gear as i feel pretty comfortable getting into dono cycle/how to fix myself
but even worse case we both just go md and kill with melee
just my take but depends if ur potting with a horner or not. i dont bother with bclaws if we dont have horn/i feel like elight spec pgood to
would see what others have to say as well
In the infinite donofly it doesn’t matter where the jellys spawn as long as you don’t lose ticks killing them/get meleed right
I’m not using gregs tiles fwiw if that matters
Oh I rewatched Greg’s vid I didn’t realize the void flares sw is in range, it seems farther off so I am mistaken
in the lab
not only are you going to solve the so far unbeatable fight
you will do so on your first try
surely after a few main kcs I can get it in 3 iron kcs
it really doesn't seem too awful
individual radiant contracts are a touch faster than 1 per 3h from yama btw
i got that and the horn one but no actual drops
the log was worth twice as much when i got the horn 150kc ago
what do you do instead?
There are 4 spawn locations and 3 of 4 are in range from the tile you kill the 1st one and all 4 are in range from the tile you kill the second so it’s always solvable
I was struggling in the situation where you had the two west spawns since the nw spawn is out of range but I guess I thought it was closer than sw spawn
I mean, when you fuck up the gregfly method. how do you get back into the cycle?
or do you do some other method now that makes it easier to get into the cycle?
I have same problem as you, when I fuck up, its gg for that kill. I need to mage it
It's hard but possible to get back into the cycle, you can just try to feel it out based on clicking on him as he starts his snapping animation. Otherwise just try to stand on the column where you can skip the waves over the X, and try and flinch him where possible to finish out the kill
the demons have red symbol but I don't need glyphic attenuation anymore so im just scything them to kill them faster so it changes
and I got bloodied blows from red symbol
that's pretty pog
same thing with sensory clouding
so it looks like you can just spam kill them the way you want to, even on wrong
wow just got another sensory clouding on red too 
Ah yeah mostly just mage instead of getting back in. Thinking of just learning Jedi nofly since it seems a lot easier to get back in cycle
just a small clarification needed on jedi slide -- the two patterns he shows can happen any time, right? there's nothing special about the first fireballs, it's just one or the other depending on horizontal or vertical?
yeah, whether they spawn EastWest or NorthSouth is just 50/50
I think I'll try and learn jedislide today too, seems like it's necessary for contracts, and sits in between gregsurf and kirby nofly for difficulty vs tick speed up
which contracts is it good for?
seems like it would fall apart if yama follows you
maybe not tbh
I think people were using it for the crush one
People were using kirby method for crush and follow one
Just the follow one is a lot harder to do it with
yeah i misread it for a week
but that is actually how it works
demons can always drop all 5 , just afk with whatever effect yuou want
and when glyph matches your rate is 2xed
so if you want bloody/sensor you just afk scythe/demonbane
which makes me think they actually did realize these were the two hardest
they have the highest droprate and the best dps option to farm
that was so insanely stressful lol
i didnt know you could get loot on these though
i got a lockbox, all of my other runs got no regular loot
the end was so clutch jesus christ
if my emberlight didnt hit 25 dmg on last hit i would have wiped
Is that 2/5?
with scorch bow
Good shi
3/5
Gzgz
but greg
please do not get 5/5 before they buff this shit
irons gotta stay united on this one
I just want to be 1/5 so my opinion counts\
ye
hmm ok
how tf do u get 4 kill trips
am a noob but i did 1 kill with fly and took 5 mantas + 40hp
ah bf
ye that item doesnt exist imo for moneys 🤣
bf is 150 hp per kc
looks like it adds up
ye
but I highly highly reccomend sgs with horn alt instead
breakeven with rancor stay as long as you want
watch my next video
has the patented ironscape tech from @dapper hollow
not needing to bgs/emberlight means you can perma sgs and stay healthy
If you're going for log surely you pot duo right?
but i think solo alted horn is better for items?
I went back to mage solos to get it dialed in for contracts
hmm looks like i lost 20 million dollars on the forfeit breath contract
I am concerned bloody blows is currently impossible without wardf but not sure
yea im waiting on bloodied blows
i hear divine severence is doable but bloodied blows p3 is just fucked up
do you have actual max mage?
yea why do u ask?
isnt this just dependent on ur hp value at end
yes but
you also can't go too low
or you just die
there is a very tight sweet spot in actual max
but in slightly below max I think the max oneshot hp might be in ko range?
funky thing about horn alt is that you only get 11 instead of 12 oathplate shards
Wizzy video description shoutout is my peak fr
kinda wacky, still good to horn alt, but it is an 8% decrease in shards
It’s more than a 8% increase in kph though isn’t it
yeah bit cringe how it rounds everything down
and i imagine it's more precise on the armor rates
hmm
which I don't own
thats actually probably good
400 with nothin https://i.imgur.com/tRNgHgZ.png
Yeah tbh
I don't have maul but I could just horn then hammer
Idk how the rounding works
it does exist
I got 11 in an alted kill
but it's not 1hp
I had a 842 aether kill
it depends how much the alt hits / how long it survives
sometimes it survives for ages
unfortunately i didn't have recorder on
If u self maul it’s -2 tick and -50% spec basically which is equiv to -5 tick
So -7t if your alt just horns
Oh wait but you could in theory get that back by horning 3 more times lol, each one is a tick basically
So -3t ?
lol that's actually probably good
hammer spec with 100% accuracy isn't horrible dps, I'd double hammer since it doesn't full drain, then get 2 emberlights
I prob won’t bother doing it, but it’s interesting at least
I’ve been wondering if there’s any weird horn use cases where you could spam it
Has anyone cleared any of the acquisition contracts
Looks like a 100% accuracy dwh spec is about the same DPS as a normal emberlight hit, I'll keep doing horn maul on the alt but if I get 11 shards again I'll just have it 4x horn instead
It would be worth a 100% specbar to get 8% more shards I think
can you tick eat the autos? (that would make it insanely difficult though l0l)
how do u guys get game sound ids? i wanna mute the sounds in chasm of fire
Jagex auto denied my claim for lost items when I solod a bugged worm contract that is currently incompletable
sound swapper plugin at the bottom
is this them? i tried putting them into muted sounds but nothing happened
I use annoyance mute plug in to actually mute them
wizz can u send me ur settings for sound swapper and annoynace mute? i must have these numbers in the wrong spot ngl
annoyance:
,6014, 5884, 6116, 2766, 5949, 272,6996,6997,3541,3975,3964,3944,4005,4007,3230,3231,3956,3995,4018,5035,5053,10238,10255,10268,10215,9335,

woah i was scrolled up further than i thought
meanwhile on the main while trying a few kc before bonding up the iron
https://i.imgur.com/vtD9yzu.png
avg 
got both an oathplate and horn contract but htose won't be cleared any time soon lol
one of my potters finished the boss
missing pet and legs from log but crafted the legs
im still 0/4
in half the kc tbf
how many shards/oathplate drop is expected?
I finished with 804 kc, enough shards for my missing 1 piece
I feel like that's gotta be the better way to see how your RNG is, kinda like nex
No pet/chest on log tho
My duo friend got 450 shards around 650 kc (lucky)
Another one buddy of mine is at 400 shards at 800 kc
aware this is giga
but virtus mask + unfort ward + max mage otherwise w/ augury also maxes an 84, so should handle these fine. Less sure about bloodied blows since that's more about the min hit
does anyone have yamas finger snap sound id?
i thought someonie said 10268 was finer snap but that seems to be the sound effect of fireballs once they explode in p3
it is in the IDs that i already provided to you.
Did the duo ones get cleared yet?
Like worm or crystals
idk
ah i was putting in wrong area for some reason
do you need to normal trident the spawns if you don't pull up to them?
forfeit breath
1kc on da main
in the span of the past hour, nofly has gone from "what the fuck there's so much to keep track of" to "this is my favorite method to kill any boss in the game ever"
10/10
is nofly just gregfly by gnomonkey?
or is there some trick to it?
is that the 3t one?
can't even come close to keeping track at this point
it's the jedi one that @umbral cradle mentioned he was learning for the crush contract
3t yeah, gotta actually pay attention to the fireballs
that sounds fun
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jG05xEhsnkY this video is good for commentary, but I didn't really get it until studying these https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hpLrDCrcVg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbzf6PJYto4
This is a good starting point to learning 3 tick emberlight cycles.
mark of darkness must be active to get the 1 tick speedup and 3 tick your emberlight
the mirrored tiles do not work properly for your duo partner, ProveiYT has a guide for how to do this method as a duo, check out his video here!

Another (clean) example of the Yama Nofly setup inspired by Port Khazard, this clip shows the tick counter reset during the black-screen to always be clicking off the boss on 6 and back on 7 (and dodge shadow walls on 1).
See this video for full breakdown + tiles https://youtu.be/kbzf6PJYto4
Inspired by the GOAT Port Khazard I wanted to learn an easy setup/way to execute his method to take advantage of the attack speed steroid from the fireballs, turns out this is way easier than the Donofly methods and has a much easier reset if you make mistakes.
Realistically to make this method super easy you can use a 7 tick metronome (metron...
sorry for embed spam
why is it called nofly if jedi made it and its called simplefly
idfk
no butterflying
ohh i see
you know that makes sense
so it basically treats yama as a frozen p3 verzik
the annoying part about the redeye video is that horizontal fireballs are way harder than vertical fireballs
and he only gets them once at the start where they don't cause problems
as soon as I started thinking about the boss in terms of verzik though and actively thinking "I need to be away on tick 7" everything clicked
red eye good for intro, 2nd two vids + descriptions good for really learning
kirby has a vid on it too now
takes some attempts but super satisfying
kirby's is more complex but also more optimized
this is a good like, intro to 3t
idk about y'all but I could not follow kirby's guide
fair
just checked, I think the difference between normal/contract is that he's 7t the entire fight, instead of just enrage
the biggest gotcha in the method is stepping in to dodge flamewalls. Instead of stepping in sametick with his attack you have to step 1 tick delayed, other than that it's kinda vibes
and apparently in awakened the double flamewall has a totally different timing 🙃
still this seems doable, def wanna get comfy with it and then send glyphic atten
i can try to make a video explaining how I mentally think about the 3t hourglass stuff
made that would help people
i think I can explain a more straightforward thought process
I think that'd be generally useful to have yeah
its not as complicated as some of these guides are making it out to be
they are like hyper min maxing it
I know I had to watch a bunch of vids and read a bunch of comments/descriptions before getting something that worked for me
and it becomes unapproachable
vertical = click when the next set appears, horizontal = click when you're about to get hit (roughly) is the mnemonic that made it consistent for me
and after that it was just having the 7t timer in my head for stepaways when there were no fireballs to use as visual guides
looking forward to hearing how you think about it
do you use a 7t visual metronome for this? I just started learning nofly like 90 min ago and I'm strugglin
wondering if i need one
anyone for some yama?
it'd def be useful, I'm just kinda used to counting in my head by now though. There's some tech around resetting visual metronome when the judge dies, but I'm not sure the exact tick
if someone can figure that out, id give em a big juicy hug

I'm trying that, clicking reset as soon as the number disappears, but my tick to click off is 5 instead of 6
I can get used to that but it's different so just be careful
Oh that's because he has a checkbox to reset his tick to tick 1 instead of tick 0
5 is the magic number for verzik as well if you reset when reacting to an attack
@misty marlin can u post ur settings for the plugin?
i think the only important settings are tick count and the hotkey settings
i dont think hotkeys are really useful here
Use the "+2" rule to identify the boss tick:
-
For P1, look at your tick counter on the tick that you press the final "yes" in the dialogue. Take this number +2, and that is the important tick where you need to click to step back. For example, if I press "yes" on tick 2, then I need to click back on tick 4,
-
For P2 and P3, spam click to move (as normal). Look at your tick counter on the first tick your true tiles moves. Add +2 and that is the important tick to step backwards.
jagex had to be trolling us with the worm contract
🪱
seems balanced
they are going to crash the wormconomy
does anyone know the sound id for the sounds of the lava/fire and random bird chirping at voice of yama? i have visual sounds and debug sound effects on but its not picking up anything
what if the worm is some like pet transmog or something
1/50 to unlock the real yama pet
what causes late entry into yama p3?
i thought it was host but i still got meleed idk if i did something wrong
one of life's great mysteries
last I heard the theory was if you get overkill on judge
I haven't been keeping track though
how cope is it to make legs and come back once i get a torva helm which gives 2 extra max hits
I would be hesitant to smith anything that isn't my last piece
and you have no idea if torva helm will be a 200h detour
we did it fellas 5/5 no alts
World first altless?
and you won't have to worry about the aether runes
might be world first. time to lobby for a cool role so you can maintain the legacy
finishing making that vid we were talking about earlier to help people out
inb4 misinformation 
how many contracts mr bread? i might be overfarming these
actually just calculated that 😄
In the order I did them:
5 Forfeit breath
13 Glyphic attenuation (had to use cudgel)
41 Bloodied blows
8 Divine severance
33 Sensory clouding
insane gamer
13 no alts with cudgel gives people hope 😄
HAD to
i thought it was just for flex
lmao
was considering just waiting 3 days and doing that one last when i can buy a mace
but it wasn't too bad, just slow really
elder maul camping is about the same dps i calced 😄
just watched my vid back and i missed both mauls on the kill i got the cudgel kc XD
Is Lance/hasta not bettter?
hasta might be (lance isn't) but I didn't have one either 😄
Fair enough
ooh hasta got prayer bonus too
I assume crush scythe blows
yeah it's awful
Nice tho, just in time too 😉
Surely we can get you a Yama champion role to legacy or something fun
yeah it was nice to have one last challenge to round off the ironman 🙂
Ya for sure
feels kinda complete now, would've felt a bit sad if i'd done it all as a main
Ya the contract buffs made it way easier w your timeline
@stiff dagger after doing bloodied blows yourself, do you think it's likely that they will nerf it in some aspect?
like the whole splashing thing for starters
The splashing thing I'm sure they'll fix yeah, that seems like an obvious oversight
I think that's the only thing that makes it so much harder though
Like p3 your main constant focus is on:
- keeping HP 10-15/11-16
- switching prayers
- dodging waves
then situationally you need to swap gear and deal with flares, but the splashing means there's like a whole extra thing to have constant focus on
I think once the splashing is removed it gets a lot easier
probably well over 20 of my 40 deaths on that one were because I splashed on something and that either directly killed me as it didn't die, or the fact I had to send extra shots out of cycle messed me up
my kc on that one was basically the first time that everything just died in 1 hit without splashing, which feels like the way they intended it
@stiff dagger can you post the demons log please
Do you have to sit lower without ward (f) compared to regular ward?
For bloodied blows
This was mobile, but was a mix of all 3 drop rates, and doing lots off-glyph too
@stiff dagger do u think majority of the contracts will be made a fair amount easier or just the orbs?
Oh I guess we will have new torm and new magic strength boots by the time I attempt this. Maybe will help you be a bit higher for p3
You have the same base max hit with ward unfortified, so I don't think so, but it may be that the minimum hit works different
I don't think any will/should be changed with the exception of splashing on the flares
Hopefully they remove contract fee altogether
but the fights themselves look fun
looking forward to doing bloody blows myself
Yeah I thought they were insanely fun, all of them different
I just don't have much afk time to do 3k black demons
Gotcha. Maybe ward (f) + new torm/mage strength boots let's you be higher HP then
reddit sentiment this morning seemed to be that they were really boring fights
reddit is parrotting jraze
My main concern with them is how long they are. They didnt need to be awakened whisperer length fights
Hp at 2500 is fine for all of them besides maybe bloodied
I didn't really feel like that either tbh, they're longish but engaging, you need to actually think about what you're doing the whole time
I think the slow build into a hard final phase is great, like inferno or colo
0time if you do it on your alt
how long does it take to mine the secondary to make oathplate armour?
explain the alts
Can store them in briefcase 

Awesome vid ❤️
i would make contracts less common but kit contracts are consumed when you use them but they give you unlimited attempts until you succeed, at which point they are consumed
The afk method is 10 hours or so, the tick manip is like 45 minutes if ur tick perfect
So even trolling its prob a bit over an hour
too late
the current supply is so much
What was the message
Gotta wait 1 month for the NPC outside Yama to store contracts for you
On his alt or
No, he refuses to acknowledge his alt account
ty @umbral cradle
straight to the point was much better than malgoats vid ngl
is there a reason nobody has done capeswap to ancients for sensory clouding? Freeze the guy and trident the flares
or even trident > blood barrage
Can you not do scobow spec?
what do ppl spec in no horn duos
3x emberlight
this was lowkey working really well 👀
Based
do you not need purging staff for the flares?
and if not, for which contracts 👀
they spawn at 80hp
during p3
so you can 2 tap them with trident
and during p1/p2 just 3hit the fire and skip the shadow
i was just doing 1 ember each with toodles
vibes say 3rd isnt worth..
mage everything

cant believe u would mage without a wizzy hat g
Wizard boots is bis wiz* item for him
Man's a true mta hater
What part of fight is scobo for?
Ancients? Home tele edge
THIS IS A ONE WAY SHORTCUT
can I even be happy? Lol
what method should i use for solo enrage with melee
havent rly kept up with anything
gregfly
ty
I have one for horn and oath, I’m still waiting for the nerds to lab it
gregfly is comfy but "nofly" is much better for the melee transmog fight so worth considering learning
I will be learning it when I go back to melee
has anyone done the math on how many more Emberlight hits you get from a nofly rotation vs a gregsurf rotation
I'm learning nofly for future contracts practice but I'm not convinced it's worth doing for solo grinding
There’s a duo vid where one person is doing donofly and one simplefly (Jedi not max efficiency nofly) and I actually counted the difference in hits, think it was like 13 nofly vs 12 donofly hits in that clip iirc
There were some scythe swings in the donofly 5t window too so it’s a little closer than that
And with simplefly it’s kinda rng how good your dps is depending on which wave patterns you get
yeah I'm probably not going to learn WR nofly, just do the red eye forced method, and I don't feel like switching to scythe for optimal tick usage if its barely better than an emberlight hit
This is an example of how to execute the Nofly method as the 2nd person in a duo, due to the different shape of the hourglass you need to use a slightly modified method but all the timings still remain essentially the same and the same tick counting method can be used (see this video for example/explanation https://youtu.be/kbzf6PJYto4).
Tiles ...
sounds like it's just nofly for contract practice/backup strat for if I mess up gregsurf, but gregsurf for normal farming
This is the vid I counted hits from
Since nofly is better dps and easier to get back into if you fuck it up id just probably say do nofly
Seems like donofly was 13 hits and nofly 14
Though in that clip looks like he only got the slower rotation of bombs so would maybe be more different otherwise
wtf
had it a few times this session
supppose its just bad luck then
definitely feels like ranged is rare 
is the trident supposed to max hit?
cus mine was not on the orbs
Yes?
was hitting 12
It did for me lol
Skill issue maybe? (I have no idea)
I was doing Forfeit breath and sensory deprivation
guess ill wait till gagec says any updates wednesday
I cant help but feel like grasp is terrible for the snare contract
like you cant instantly resnare so it has to be procing like half hte time at most
I think it is fine because it's a "snaring spell"
so the demon doesn't have to be currently frozen, as long as you last hit with grasp
as i understand it its not even worth trying on the shittier contracts vs using scythe
2x more common but undead grasp is way worse than half dps of a scythe
but you can't get the freeze drop catalyst if you're scything
forfeit breath you have to kill while it is bound, or with a binding spell
I've also only seen it once but I only farmed for like a day
@atomic surge
looks like its accuracy affected
i was using an accursed sceptre (my bis) and it wasnt maxing
but when i used shadow barrage (which has weird accuracy shit) it was max hitting each itme
time*
wait can anyone explain why we needed 3 melee sets in the game btw
3?
had to catch up with range
inquis, justi, bandos, torva, oath, blood moon
mixed hide for stab 
if anyone is just casually farming, try to get hit by the flame inchworms in p1/p2 while walking
im pretty sure its not possible
i think they only hit you if you're on the same tile for over a tick
dw next we'll get specialized sets for light range, med range, and heavy range
cant wait to be able to take Justiciar to the ancient forge and break them down into plates I can use on Inquisitor
gregfly is good like reckless said, but you can also try 3t "nofly" if you want a more engaging method that's a bit more efficient & sweatier
I made a vid sharing my approach to learning it since the existing video guides were pretty opaque unapproachable: #1368632190723821729 message
and here's the gregfly v2 pinned message: #1368632190723821729 message
I never wanted to bother with nofly because I just wanted a brain-off cycle, and it's still like 95% as efficient. However, the Glyphic Attentuation contract basically forced me to learn 3t, it felt like a brick wall without that
🙏 thanks greg

how come fly methods don't work for glyphic?
the shadow waves X intersection is randomized between 3 rows
can be regular center, or one to the left/right
I don't think you can predict if ur gunna get left/right/center
oic
however it might be possible that a souped up donofly exists
adjust cycle for whether you get left right or center waves 

this is why I learned nofly
glyphic attenuation p3 just felt so impossible to me that it just felt straight up easier to stop trying, learn 3t for an hour, then go back
brute forcing it without that would have been genuinely harder imo
and ive also learned something cool from doing that, and I apply it in regular yama farming now
i tried learning jedi slide for a bit and started to get it down but then thought wtf this is pointless yama is gonna follow me anyway
good to know its good for glyphic too
Am i missing something or is full torva bis over full oathplate at yama??
calc above assumes 3 emberlight specs
does wiki dps have 120% demonbase for yama yet 
oh that's with berserker ring (i)
no ultor?
nmy b one sec
LOL
i put my current setup then modified the stuff that matters X D
torva helm + oath body/legs is bis
that's gunna be the standard in a lot of places where you are inbetween 75%-90% accurate (according to kirby)
thanks
kirby said:
-
90% accurate = full torva + ultor
- 75%-90% accurate = torva helm + oathplate body/legs + ultor
- <75% accurate = full oathplate + bellator
(or something like that)
and this might just be for scythe idk
well in the instance above even if you have no def reduction it's still better
yeah prob just scythe
loot from just under 3k greaters
anyone else have a log to share? to maybe estimate rates
New mechanic drop
you can just camp heavy ammo even on wrong symbol btw
if u want to target farm a specific contract
basically when you complete a piece of the transmog, you should drop those weapons/gear from your demon killing setup entirely
I was wondering how that worked. For now it makes sense to keep going with the rota till I have like 50+ of each
the logical thing to do is camp lesser demons til you get a champ scroll then send whatever contracts you have
