Pros-granite hammer- great that speed is good as scim. cons- 60% is too much for an underpowered spec. 50% please.
granite ring pros: none. when embuned 16+ is basically dead content because of thhe level requirements please consider a 50 str req only.
granite gloves- 2nd best if not best armour or weapon update in this update(considering the cannon balls arnt tradable).
granite boots -- disappointed with the def bonuses. expecialy when a ring gives a better bonus.
str bonus should match that of dragon boots. 3+ is too underpowered especialy compared to whats already out there.,
;) please read and consider my thoughts., 11 years of scaping

Really cool set of bosses. I probably won't do them any time soon (still a bit of a newbie in OSRS compared to RS3), but out of curiosity, why are so many of the drops focused on low-level gear? With the exception of the boots, everything else seems to be level 50. I presume these bosses are for higher leveled players, around 100 I'm guessing, but even if they were designed for players at 70-80 combat, those level 50 drops don't really offer anything useful for them. Sure you can sell the items if they're worth selling, but you still might be better off doing Barrows anyways.
Here, I'll give you this strawberry if you keep it a secret!

Does this boss count as a safe death?

I'm not a hcim but on the last phase the boss can knock player against a wall and then make the flame circle around it with exit against the wall so player WILL take 55 damage and instantly die because of being unable to eat and unable to leave the barrier.

(this happened to me)

So uh, is Jar of Stone different from all other Jars? I am not seeing an option to use it in the boss lair in my POH.

Also:

Also wanting to know more info about the safe death and chest.

Are imbued items protected upon death?

Is fire cape protected upon death

Haven't been able to find anything about this yet. Can a mod clear this up?


Yes, and Yes. I have died with imbued items and firecape, nothing happened to either, retrieved both unchanged from chest.

Left it a bit late to reply, sorry! (Been testing the Boss most the weekend).

I'm extremely happy with how the slayer tower has that extra content towards it and nothing fits it better than the Grotesque Guardians.

I feel that the Boss's are well balanced and really gives the mid tier players an early taste to what else is out there!

Well done to everyone who was involved on designing & testing this update!

So I just killed a few grotesque guardians and i gotta say, they're awesome. It's fun to slay them, drops are nice and all. Just one thing:
When Dusk creates the square where you have to run out of, it happens, that sometimes he creates it in a corner and on a even rarer occasion the exit will be facing the wall, leaving actually no possible exit at all. I'm not sure if this is intended, but if not, I would appreciate the fix :)
