Mechanics
⬥ Charge Pads
• The arena has 6 pads that you can stand on to charge.
• When it is full charged, Zamorak will stop attacking for a while and your adrenaline bar will be refilled. After this, you will gain an Edict while Zamorak gains a Hex depending on the pad charged.
• You will become unable to charge pads when Zamorak says HEED MY CALL
. To continue charging the next pad, you must enter Infernus and kill the mage present.
⬩ This happens after charging every pad.
Notes: Once Chaos Traps have been activated, and
before stepping on other pads. Additionally, once the bar for charging a rune is full, move at least 3 squares away from the middle of the rune. If Coven is not your last rune, be prepared to kill a Healer and Protector.
