Hello all,

I've really been struggling to obtain my fire cape. I've attempted to beat Jad over twelve times but have not been successful. I've read many guides and watched plenty of YouTube videos. While fighting Jad, the healers keep re-spawning, and I am confused by this. From what I understand, healers should only respond if they heal Jad to full HP. However, my experience has seen them continuously re-spawn despite his HP having never been fully restored. I also had tanked the healers with one still remaining by my side, yet they still kept spawning.

Can someone tell me exactly how the healers function? Under what circumstances do they re-spawn or remain dead? Could there be any chance that I'm experiencing a bug in game? I've been fighting Jad non-stop for a couple weeks now and am quite frustrated with this, I really didn't think it would be this hard.

Also, I should mention that I am living in a very rural part of the world with abominable internet quality, which has been the main contributor to my problems in game.

If the healers spawn you have to kill them.
You can lure the healers if jad is at the Italy rock and kill them safely.

Once the healers are down go back to jad as normal.

The healers wont go away if they healed Jad.

Hello, SURFINBUSH!

The best way to deal with the healer is to tag them all and trap them behind Jad. This isn't nearly as difficult as it sounds. When the healers first appear, there's no reason to attack Jad anymore; you're literally wasting your time and the more time you waste the more likely you are to get KO'd, right?

As soon as the healers spawn, tag each healer as fast as you can to stop the healing process. Then, run to the side of Jad (only pay attention to Jad's attacks and nothing else) and wait for the healers to all walk up to you. Now, wait for the next Jad attack and as soon as you prayer switch, begin running through him. As soon as his attack hits you, switch to protect melee until his next attack. The healers should all be stuck behind Jad now and you can finish him off.

While tagging healers, make sure you do a pray switch between actions. Never try to do multiple actions between Jad attacks unless you are comfortable doing so or you may get KO'd.

Pro tip, sounds like you got some rough Internet connection. Try using a direct wire ethernet cable for your computer instead of wireless if you are. This will dramatically improve your connection and may reduce or entirely eliminate lag you are experiencing.

Shoot me any questions if you got 'em. Best of luck to you!

Thank you for your reply.

The problem I'm inquiring about is that the healers keep spawning, even when there is still one left, and that has made it impossible for me to beat Jad.

then dont kill them

just tag them so they are off jad, and far enough away so they dont heal jad. then you just need to tank their hits. you can easily set it up so only 1 or 2 are attacking you, this is only an issue if you are like 1 defence

The healers will respawn if Jad was healed back to full health. I did Jad a few times in October and while I died in similar circumstances to you I don't think there's a bug.

It's worth noting that according to the wiki, healers may still heal Jad while you're tanking it.

I'd definitely recommend the pray melee + run under Jad method if you're comfortable with it.

Since you're new to this I think just tagging each healer one by one is a better option. Simplicity is a better way to quell your nerves and thus giving you a fighting chance to defeat Jad in the end :)

Whatever you do the key with Jad is doing one thing at a time. i.e Look at jad - pray , next action, look at jad-pray, next action.

Good luck friend!
