Solo HM Hybrid

Kerapac, the Bound - Solo Mage Melee Hybrid

Introduction

This guide assumes you are already familiar with the basic mechanics of Kerapac which can be seen here #kerapac-hm-basic and own BIS gear in both Magic and Melee.

It is highly recommended to have a Nodon dragonkin slayer task slayer as the helmet boost does work. You may also use the Premier Artefact premierartefact to have a 10% chance to not decrease the slayer task count with each kill.

Preface

Hybrid strategies at Kerapac can result in fast kills and are able to circumvent cooldown issues that generally affect style-camp rotations.

Preset Suggestion & Breakdown

Preset Notes

⬥ Powder of Penance powderofpenance is used before loading the preset.

⬥ Melee gear must not have mob

Phase 1

You will need to determine if you can armadylbattlestaff eofspec and have enough adrenaline for P2 start.

smokecloud gconcwmarmadylbattlestaff eofspecasphyx (2 hit) → gconc → (autocast incitefear) omniarmadylbattlestaff eofspecsmoketendrils

⬥ Depending on Kerapac's HP:

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• High HP: armadylbattlestaff eofspecwmtsunamiincite → finish with basics

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• Low HP: zamorakstaff eofspecgconcwmtsunamiincite → finish with basics

Note: If Kerapac jumps, use gfury for chance of crit buff.

Phase 2

Ensure that vulnbomb is re-applied during your zerk. Ideally, try to delay usage of meteorstrike so as to maintain crit buff into P3.

lengmh specfreedom → (anti if needed) → gbargetimewarp zerk → 2H auto → assaultcanedestroyoverpowerchaosroarcaneassaultdestroy → build to 100% adrenaline → meteorstrike → finish with Magic and re-apply smokecloud when possible

Note: If gfury was not used in P1, then an impatient proc will be needed to reach 100% adrenaline after gbarge. You can wear vestments on your last ability in P1 to reach > 100% adrenaline to avoid this issue.

Phase 3

The first suggested rotation has higher damage potential, however it depends on receiving high adrenaline from grico

Note: don't use wm / asphyx too late in the phase - you will need them for the first clone.
