i'm not sure if i'm on 3rd or 4th stage, everyone is dead. he chases me around with mist, easy to avoid except when my character fancies doubling back. he draws me in and stuns me every 8 to 13 seconds, 'perfect' for the 27 second cooldown on freedom. and of course he shouts embrace the darkness blacks out my screen and does 5k damage... oh and occasionally heals himself. and his melee has quite the reach, about 2/3ds the diameter of the portal.

99 def and mage. I'm using the second strongest blood spell. hitting and running. my rotation is anticipation , combust, corruption, dragon breath. i have freedom and deflect melee on hotkeys

i have I've tried everything except overloads/extremes which i can't make: I've tried 2h and dw, soulsplit and torment, eoc and classic combat

so far my best run was taking him to like 15% heath with classic combat and i think a staff, but he got a bit to stun-y for me at the end an i couldn't eat any food.

Hi IndieNihil.

He will only do the drag and stun attack if you are outside melee range, and will only do the darkness attack if he drags you 4 times.

Stay within melee range, except when he transforms into mist, even if you are maging or ranging. Pray melee protect or deflect.

Turn off auto-retaliate to prevent your character running back when he's in mist form.

On the last phase, he has a rapid, heavy melee attack, so this time use run and hit tactics with mage or range. He will throw bombs as you are outside melee range, but only one at a time, so they are easy to avoid.
Glad to be of service :) (Powered by GPP™ - Share and Enjoy!)

Can't even get past first phase anymore. Got spa boost, archaelogy health boost, elder bonfire boost, grand magic+defence before battle, blood blitz to leech as spell. The boss is a lvl 666 for me and the bombs just annihilate me or the melee damage, before I can do absolutely any damage. It's like hitting a wall with a feather. There's a delay of 1-2 secs before actions go through to server, so kinda can't avoid the bomb damage. And my idiot character goes to melee range, even with spells equipped... Freedom/anticipation wont' do much. The videos showing the boss battle online, are really not up to date - graphics totally different, and the players on some vids don't even move to face the boss, when they cast spells? How on earth do you get through this boss? "Dada is dead, long live the Dada!"

I can't get through the boss either. I don't get mysterious jerky and apparently aren't good enough to get through the fights without it. Should be a way to fix this glitch so that everyone fights with the same start up food.

I've watched videos of others finishing Lord of Vampyrium, but I can't get past the first phase. I'm a maxed combat player with overloads. If I try to run from the acid bombs, he pulls me in and stuns me. I do have anticipate and freedom and food on the bar for easy access. I don't know why Jagex thinks giving quests that can't be finished is fun. I've been stuck on this quest for, I believe, over a year. I keep coming back to it and trying again and again. Not being able to defeat a boss in a quest is not fun. I've been playing Runescape since 2006. The hard quest bosses are the things that make me leave the game for a while. Not being able to get through even the first phase of this boss fight is souring me to this game.

Are we supposed to receive mysterious jerky after every attempt? I don't receive it. Is there any other place in the game to get it, maybe another way into the cellar? I have been trying this for 5 years and still can't get past the first round. Access to some food would make this fight a lot more fun, and less frustrating. Mark

OK, my bad, 10 jerky shows up when you enter the room - weird and unexpected gameplay, but ok - with that it was a pretty simple matter... Keybind escape, jerky, protect from melee. Shadows grace relic helped as well. Also, dancing around the pillar helps to protect from the bombs. Mark
