Tombs of Amascut

Tombs of Amascut is a raid consisting of 5 encounters, 4 paths and the final fight. The difficulty can be scaled using the invocation system. The higher your raid level, the more chance you have at lucrative rewards.

Raid Encounters

The paths can be tackled in any order. After clearing the 2nd and 4th paths, a helpful spirit will appear in the lobby and offer you a choice of supplies that can be crucial to your success in the rest of the raid.

Recommended Equipment

Upgrade/Downgrade where necessary and consider any Pet Perks or Relics you plan to use.

Melee is primarily used for Ba-ba, Kephri, Akkha, and Warden's core, and most bosses in the raid are weakest to Stab. Hybrid sets from Sunfreet are comparible to God Wars armour and a Bandos Godsword is preferable for defence reduction but Elder Maul and Statius' Warhammer will also work. Due to the Warden's core taking max hits from melee, the dragon dagger is an excellent special weapon to use there.

	Amulet of rancour	Amulet of torture (or)	Amulet of blood fury

	Hazelmere's signet ring	Berserker ring (i)	Ring of suffering (ri)

Ranged is primarily used for Zebak, Akkha, and Wardens. The Twisted bow does well against the Wardens and is the strongest weapon at Zebak. The Toxic blowpipe does well on bosses with lower defence and the various minions, (especially with Masori armour), while the Bow of faerdhinen and Crossbows with ruby bolts can deal with higher HP and defence targets. You may also consider a Venator bow, or using Farsight Decimation for it's special attack or main weapon.

Relics, Auras and Pet Perks

All combat styles are useful within Tombs of Amascut, so which relic you decide to use will likely be dictated by the rest of your setup and Pet Perks.

Supreme Poison Purge will be useful during the paths of Scabaras and Apmeken.

Invocations and Difficulty Scaling

Mode		Raid Level
	Entry Mode	0–149
	Normal Mode	150–299
	Expert Mode	300–600

Tombs of Amascut's difficulty is customizable. A raid level of 0 is very accessible and can be done in very low gear requirements. This raid level can be altered by using the Invocation System.

For every 5 raid levels, NPC hitpoints, defence, accuracy, and damage are increased by 2%, with damage capping at 150%.

Turning on invocations increases the raid level by a certain amount and also adds a specific mechanical change to the raid itself.

While this makes the raid harder, it increases the quantity of standard loot and also increases your chance of rolling unique items.

Invocation		Details	Raid lvl modifier	Category
	Try Again	Players have ten attempts to complete a raid. An attempt is failed if the team wipes during a challenge, but if the team wipes just as the challenge is completed, it will not count as a fail. Only one invocation in the Attempts category can be active.	+5	Attempts
	Persistence	Players have five attempts to complete a raid.	+10	Attempts
	Softcore Run	Players have three attempts to complete a raid.	+15	Attempts
	Hardcore Run	Players have one attempt to complete a raid.	+25	Attempts
	Walk for It	Players have 40 minutes to complete the raid, including time spent between each Path. If unsuccessful, the raid level will decrease by 20. (The timer begins upon entering the first Path and ends when the Warden reaches 0 health in the final phase of the fight.) Only one invocation in the Time Limit category can be active.	+10	Time Limit
	Jog for It	Players have 35 minutes to complete the raid. If unsuccessful, the raid level will decrease by 30.	+15	Time Limit
	Run for It	Players have 30 minutes to complete the raid. If unsuccessful, the raid level will decrease by 40.	+20	Time Limit
	Sprint for It	Players have 25 minutes to complete the raid. If unsuccessful, the raid level will decrease by 50.	+25	Time Limit
	Need Some Help?	The quantity of items offered by the Helpful Spirit will be reduced to 66%, with a minimum of one supply of that type. Despite the name, the reduction may or may not occur - e.g it's still possible to get an unaffected Power option (2 salt + 1 adrenaline) but has a chance of being reduced (1 salt + adrenaline) Only one invocation in the Helpful Spirit category can be active.	+15	Helpful Spirit
	Need Less Help?	The quantity of items offered by the Helpful Spirit will be reduced to 33%, with a minimum of one supply of that type.	+25	Helpful Spirit
	No Help Needed	The quantity of items offered by the helpful spirit will be reduced to 10%, with a minimum of one supply of that type.	+40	Helpful Spirit
	Walk the Path	Completing a path during the raid can cause other paths to level up. Four level ups are given per raid, although the path they are given to are random. Completing the first path randomly adds levels to two other paths; the second adds a level to one of the other two paths, and then the third path adds another level to the final path. The first path level will modify most enemy hitpoints and damage by +8%, with every additional level modifying these stats by +5%, up to six levels. Furthermore, every two path levels changes each path's boss mechanics, capping at four path levels: Akkha: Every two levels adds one additional iteration to his Memory Blast attack and increases damage from the white orbs in enrage phase. Ba-Ba: Her Rockfall attack will fall much quicker, and energy blasts from open sarcophagi will have a wider range of attack. The boulders that spawn also have their health increased. Kephri: Her auto-attacks will be faster. In addition, groups of three Scarab Swarms may spawn during the shield charging phase. Zebak: His auto-attacks will be faster, even more so during his enrage phase. In addition, every two levels will also tighten the Tidal Waves' gap by 1 tile.	+50	Paths

	Not Just a Head	Zebak will occasionally cast a form of Blood Blitz on all players, causing one of two effects: Blood Blitz will attack as normal, always hitting regardless of the player's defence bonuses for 8-11 damage, healing roughly ~66% of that amount. If players are clumped, the damage is increased and will splash onto them. Summons a Blood Cloud that chases after players. It will take damage upon spawning but will heal if it makes contact with a player, dealing rapid but light damage.	+15	Zebak
	Arterial Spray	Zebak's blood magic will have increased range and healing. Not Just a Head must be active in order to activate this invocation.	+10	Zebak

	Mind the Gap!	When Ba-Ba knocks back the player to the bottom of the room at 66% and 33% health, players will fall into the pit and die, unless they stand at the northern/southern sides of the room.	+10	Ba-Ba
	Gotta Have Faith	Energy blasts from open sarcophagi in Ba-Ba's room will deal additional damage based on the player's remaining prayer points.	+10	Ba-Ba

The slam attack resumes based on where the Warden left off prior to launching Energy Siphons rather than resetting positions. Enrage phase: Red lightning strikes faster Tiles are ripped faster Phantom bosses attack faster Overclocked 2 must be active in order to activate this invocation.	+50	The Wardens
