Star Wishes said :
Make sure you use manual.


Going to disagree with this (not for the reason you said, though) - If you are struggling with managing to cope with everything, throwing in manual abilities is not going to help with that.

Once you get used to it, you can use revolution in such a way that your 'control' is not compromised, and imo its perfectly viable. I personally tried using full manual a couple of times and I felt that comparatively, I dealt less DPS and that made the kills go far worse, so I went back to revolution.

If you let revolution do absolutely everything for you, then yes, your DPS is going to be terrible and you are going to have a terrible time avoiding specials, but hey, not everyone is like that, and having revolution as a back up when you are focusing on other aspects of the fight (which I recall someone mentioning as an issue), is nothing but a good thing.

A few helpful things you can try:

Use revo to lower your needed imputs, you'll still need to manually take over as needed, it's just there to lower the intensity while eating/drinking brews.

Basic and threshold stuns to delay his attacks (if you can throw a wrack at him right after a stun you'll do some nice damage too)

Dominion tower gloves to stun and debuff him occasionally

Dreadnips and weapon poison to stun and poison him

Dual wield magic (robes offer nice melee defence and magic has plenty of aoe abilities for the anima golems)

A shield switch to resonance some of his specs

1 portant of life and 2-3 attuned portants of restoration, they can be amazing for phase 3 shockwave spam

Debuffs (stun/enfeeble/vuln) if on normal magic, blood barrage and dark form prayer if ancients

Bind your sara brews to your actionbar so you can just mash a key to chug them when needed


Once you reach 100% enrage you'll also get phase 5, the best advice I can give for that phase is AoE spam to kill the golems while they're near their artifact (corruption, chain, dragonbreath, tsunami, detonate) to kill them quickly and remember to clear your bleeds by entering the beam that matches the colour of the smoke coming off your character.

Stay calm and avoid the falling rocks while dealing damage to Telos between golem phases, it's not as bad as it sounds c:

My only issue with revolution is that I cannot always perfectly time using surge/escape to avoid his "Gielinor give me strength" attack. At lower enrages it only hits like 1-2k or whatever, but still. I could do p1 and 2 without food if I could just get that surging thing down perfectly, because resonancing his "Hold still, invader." attack only heals around 1-3k, or basically however much I got damaged for during his Gielinor attack.

If I could dodge it, then the resonance could probably fully heal each time and therefore no food, ya know.

(Btw I'm at around 50% enrage as well, but I think I can get to 100%)

If you surge/escape as the 'Gielinor, give me strength' text above his head disappears, you should avoid the swipe attack.

Alternatively, you can use an ability as the text appears, then queue surge/escape after it, and that should time it correctly as well. I'd recommend the former on revo as it sometimes ignores queued abils, but either should work.

You can kill p5 in 1 go, all you have to do is run to green/yellow beam at start, sunshine and revenge + reflect, detonate and tsunami the minions (make sure they are stacked up) then click on telos and Asphyx + wild magic and make sure your prayer/hp is high then onslaught and when the rocks fall u can tank them or use shield dome spell on ancients to half their dmg and keep onslaughting till it is dead. If your dps is slow you can immort the first insta kill and then just finish it with threads after.

Tips:
-Surge the "give me strength"
-Write down his attack patterns.
-Anticipate before the stun dunksmash move, get the small melee hit, then resonance (this is largely how no-food runs are done).
-In p3 use onslaught or meta in the red beam and if he didn't go down then you can kill the yellow guys.
-In p3 reflect and debilitate do reduce shockwave damage. Barricade as a last resort.
-To save time, start the kill with 100% adren by pre-charging on mobs outside. Use sunshine/zerk as soon as you enter in p1.
-Vulnerability on standard or blood spells and shield dome on ancients.
-In p4, reflect does reduce the damage he does to the fonts. Barricade blocks it all.
-In p4, you can do this: Barricade the first font. Then do one of the following: tank the second font and then asphyxiate and stun telos immediately before "my power" big hit. This can delay him just long enough for the forced defensive cd to end. Use barricade to block it or reflect and debilitate to heavily reduce it. If you are afraid you won't delay him long enough or panic, kill the volcanic guy fast and then stand still and use shield dome for the big hit. DO NOT MOVE or engage the other guys as this will disrupt it. Volcanic guy's stuns will remove the dome, kill him first. Barricade the third font.
-In p5 I found immort on the first one does not recharge fast enough for the second one unless I got a cd reset with my achto. So you could do it as intended and charge fonts or immort and dps before needing fonts 2-3.
-A more cheesy way for p5 since you only want the kill done, you can immort one and then sign the other (or vice versa) for two free fonts while just dpsing him down in the yellow beam.
