Boss tutorials

[pseudo marsh]

Im completely stupid please give us boss tutorials or something i have tried everything possible to get better. Maybe switch how prayer works i dont know maybe ill quit since im too stupid for a 24 year old game.

[flat thorn]

U tried scurrius?

[inland ether]

what do you need a tutorial on?

[toxic estuary]

Don't be stupid. Use the wiki

[flat thorn]

Did you use any guide or just send bosses? Cuz you definitely need guides for all the bosses in this game

[hollow summit]

Have you tried f keys

[karmic perch]

Tried watching youtube video ultimate guides?😅

[forest beacon]

Hey man, let's be fair- some people learn way better via practice vs. via watching guides and trying to internalize everything before actually trying.

It would have zero benefit for most people who have gotten used to boss mechanics by now, but having a 'trial mode' where you can fight the boss in an instance where you don't gain or lose anything could help some people who want to get good at bossing and are willing to not get any drops until they're comfortable that they can fight the boss 'for real'.

[pseudo marsh]

That would definitely help

Ive watched tutorials ive got all the runelite plugins for bosses. Ive been trying to beat regular gauntlet but i think imma just give up. Ive tried other bosses and raids.

[hollow summit]

Its also incredibly beneficial to join a clan. My clan in particular is full of members who teach all content

[forest beacon]

I believe in you, man. For the time being, just think of it like this- Runescape is a rhythm game disguised as an MMO. Most of this is about learning the pattern and then having your own pattern to deal with it.

[toxic estuary]

Doing gauntlet with 75s is like 3x harder than if you had 90+

So literally a combat skill issue more than a skill issue

With more and more practice and higher DPS you can rinse and repeat

[hollow summit]

Yeah ngl I'm maxed, and when I tried gauntlet for the first time it took me a few hours to get it down. And im pretty experienced.

[stable grail]

Yeah game gets significantly less punishing if you have higher stats/gear

[forest beacon]

honestly Gauntlet was the first thing I tried after clearing all quests and it wiped me instantly. It's going to take a while to learn.

[toxic estuary]

Hunllef was made much easier with sounds and animations added on swaps. You can't ask for more than that

[stable grail]

For instance mains can just buy aranea boots, use protect from melee and click once and AFK sarachnis lol

[flat thorn]

Try easier bosses first cuz gauntlet is pretty tough

[stable grail]

Granted you have the defense level/bonuses set up

[flat thorn]

Scurrius and then moons is a good start

[stable grail]

Here's something that was on reddit, bosses ranked by difficulty, maybe try the ones at the bottom first and then moving up once you get them down

[marble yarrow]

it just takes time and practice if ur new the early bosses can help teach you a bit of the fundementals

but alot of actually getting good at endgame content is understanding boss specific mechanics rather then how good you gear swap/pray swap. even if you can do inferno that u will be a baby at toa or tob etc

[ionic palm]

Ideally bosses would let you just run in and figure out the mechanics. Many do work like that, but there's a handful that either have super obtuse mechanics or 1 shots out of nowhere

Imo the bosses themselves should be their own tutorial

[ionic palm]

Also who tf thought the rock climbing rating scale was a good idea for bosses, let alone for top rope

[stable grail]

no idea I just go based on the positions

[pseudo marsh]

@stable grail thank you. Really shows the scale of how bad i am. @marble yarrow not enough practice will make me good so i guess ill just stick to bad bosses and Skilling. Especially because switching weapons and armor is the worst 20000000000000000 % especially when i need to move, heal, and switch prayers constantly.

[marble yarrow]

vast majority of ppl that played this game start out struggling with pvm itll click eventually if u keep at it

[west nova]

Are you using F-keys or just your mouse to swap interfaces?

[pseudo marsh]

I use keys its just not possible for me to do all these things in the span of a second theres literally no breathing room for error in some of these fights. Its pray,eat, switch weapons and or armor then they add floor mechanics like i can do everything while not only watching the boss but watch the floors and other boss mechanics. And every boss has like 500-1000 or more health. Soon enough ill have the most deaths in osrs. Ive done been keeping at it.

Now i kinda wanna keep playing so i have the most deaths

[zealous thicket]

What boss are you trying right now and which bosses did you manage to kill so far?

[pseudo marsh]

Just killing zalc and trying for gauntlet

[west nova]

Sounds like you're trying to do too much at the same time. There are very few bosses that require multiple inputs per tick (0.6 seconds). For the gauntlet you need to move, but you have leeway in the sense that the tornadoes are slower than you. The floor doesn't start damaging you instantly etc.
When you eat you get put on a delay. So if you're panicking and clicking food faster than your character can eat it then you're adding unnecessary inputs that you could have used to move, swap prayers, click the boss etc.

Also, as was said before, try easier bosses that have the similar mechanics, but aren't as punishing. Scurrius, moons, amoxliatl and hueycoatl are all modern bosses that are much less punishing than the gauntlet, but teach you some of the same things.

[zealous thicket]

i mean doing gauntlet as your first real boss isnt the best move

[pseudo marsh]

Fair enough 🤣

[zealous thicket]

they introduced a lot of tutorial bosses by now, do the easy ones first and learn the basics. this is entirely self inflicted

[west nova]

The tutorial you're asking for is already in the game in the form of easier bosses. You're supposed to start with simpler, less punishing ones and move your way up.

[pseudo marsh]

Ive done alot of the smaller bosses the drops royally suck but i guess ill keep doing them.

Thanks everyone for the help

[zealous thicket]

The tutorial bosses you should be doing are scurrius, moons and titans. They all teach different things, do them until you can do them blind and perfectly, youll have a much easier time

[pseudo marsh]

Now imma have to buy a blind fold? 🤣
