Hi, 

 

I just finished making this Nex Guide, we had tons of fun recording it and hanging out, hope this helps a lot of you!!

Instructions unclear, stole my clan's bank and lost Tamber's hcim, need refund.

[villandrea]

Ranging pot, optional.

[Runecraft]

We all start somwhere , but unfortunately youre presupposing that everyone has BIS gear which shouldnt be the case in guides. All other guides on this forum have a gear hierachy from low cash to high value.

 

otherwise it couldve been a better guide with better editing. Guides should be made more interactive for everyone not just rich players

@Runecraft

 

Thanks for your comment... appreciate it.

 

BIS should have been clarified to what you have as BIS, so for example if you only have arma, black dragon hide etc etc, I mention this in the video as well. 

 

Pretty much what you need is Range gear, maxed pray, and a smash wep to help free your teammates, other then that everything else that you bring is up to you.

 

Doing it in a mass is easy, and I suggest contacting your CC and getting some people together if you don't have better gear, as RUBY BOLT E go a long way!

Some stuff you missed that is important or got wrong: 
Range pot is absolutely not optional. Unless you enjoy seeing blue hitsplats.
The cough mechanic spreads between players and lowers your stats. You may need to restore pot and you will definitely need to range pot again once the cough finishes. It's advisable to stay at least 2 tiles away from each teammate to avoid spreading the cough. This CAN be mitigated with a slayer helm or face mask.
As soon as the first minion is dead, phase two will begin. You want to pray range immediately when this starts. You will keep this on until the 2nd minion dies and Nex receives a hit to transition into blood phase.
On Blood phase, she will say "A siphon will solve this". When she says that, she will heal for any damage taken for around 8 ticks. It's advisable to hit the blood reavers only during this time. Optionally, you could kill them as she will heal for any remaining health they have on her next siphon, though in a team of 5, you will usually have enough damage to clear the phase before the next siphon.
Ice Phase: Contain this will hit anyone around Nex for 50+ damage, you want to ensure you are always at least 2 or 3 tiles away from her. 

When Nex dies, she activates Wrath prayer - which will hit anyone within a large radius around her for pretty hefty damage. You want to ensure you run a suitable distance away when she dies to avoid taking this damage.

Hi @Orangepike, 

 

I don't agree with range pot not being optional, I do it on a non-maxed him and when I use pot it is similar to having 98/99 range!!! That's why I said that, it's for irons/ people who cannot have range pots its completely doable! 

 

But everything else you said I agree with 100%. Appreciate the feedback hehe working on these videos is making me way better at editing/ game mechanics!!!! So always love the feedback especially when its constructive, I hope you enjoy it and perhaps I will eventually make a revamped new Nex video in the future

 

I actually might use what you said as some of my talking points in the next one!!

This is the difference between not potting and using a range pot at Nex (with full max gear). Your max hit increases by 13.85%, DPS is a 28.31% increase, TTK is a 21.98% decrease and accuracy is increased by 12.67%.

 

With the gear you are using in your video (including Amethyst arrows instead of Dragon Arrows), here are the numbers;

 

The max hit is a 14.29% increase, 28.8% increase in DPS, 22.29% decrease in TTK and 12.72% increase in accuracy.

These numbers can be confirmed using the OSRS DPS calculator: https://tools.runescape.wiki/osrs-dps/

Thought this was a nex guide but after watching the video i believe this was meant to be how not to nex. Sorry but this guide was really bad and unless it was to show what not to do at nex a lot of the information you talked briefly on and then didn't touch up on later on why it would be good here. talks about zgs but doesn't explain why a zgs would be worth using later in the fight rather than a dwarhammer or elder maul. Calls the blood siphons other minions rather than calling them what they are and explaining what they do a bit better and why you kill them over just ignoring them. With how you explain things it makes me feel you haven't done the boss enough to do a guide on it, that and it feels like you recorded this once and just slapped it onto the forums for views.

Thanks for the guide

[Firegirl1191]

I really appreciate the feedback guys, I will keep it in mind for the next video!! Thanks for going into detail about the pots @orangepike
