Getting There (& Killcount)

  • General Graardor is accessed from the teleport Nexus at ;;home under PVM -> Bosses -> Page 2
  • Killing Bandos-aligned minions is required to access the Boss room. The minimap on the picture shows two areas in which it is easy to obtain the required killcount from a group of goblins. Do not teleport out before facing the boss or your killcount will be reset.

  • Once your required Killcount has been acquired, bang the door near where the inital teleport landed.


Boss Fight

Duos or Groups

The tank of the group will take and hold aggro, and focus on prayer flicking while the DPS will prayer Protect/Deflect from Ranged and focus down the boss.

Solo

  • The pray flick is the most important mechanic while tanking in the fight with General Graardor. When his hands go up quickly flick your prayer from Protect/Deflect from Melee to Protect/Deflect from Ranged and then back to Protect/Deflect from Melee. In between kills, heal off the minions while leaving one alive to kill after Graador respawns, to reduce the damage you'll take during the kill itself.

Infinite trip

  • Using Soul Split and wearing Guthan the Infested's set will allow you to heal off of the minion during the downtime between the boss respawn timer and Graador and his minions will drop various food and prayer restoring items. It is possible to stay at this boss indefinitely with practice, especially with Bones to Peaches.

  • If you enter a private instance the boss respawn timer will be quicker which can help speed up kills as you become more skilled in fighting General Graardor.
