Melee Kerapac Guide

Introduction

This is an advanced guide which assumes a strong underlying knowledge of all mechanics and information presented in #kerapac-hm-basic.

It is highly recommended to have a Nodon dragonkin slayer task slayer as the slayerhelm helmet boost does work.

Presets and Relics

Melee melee

Rotations

⬥ Rotation requires eq4

⬥ Rotation works off-task and on-task, but requires minor changes

⬥ Expected kills times between 1:40s to 1:50s, 1:40s to 1:43s on-task

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• On-task can get high 1:30s with good RNG

Note: if on-task, P1-3 is similar but P4 on Kerapac is very RNG, it's easier to just cane at the end.

Pre-fight

War's Retreat

dba spec

Phase 1

Start fight with lengmh berserkdivert → (tc) gbarge + vulnbombmeteorstrikegflurryoverpowerezk specchaosroar → walk under canepunish → 2 or 3 hit assault to hit 110k → overpower

Prephase

Defensive → naturalinstinctlengmh gbargegflurry (if 2 hit assault you wait for gflurry)

Note: can swap divert and berserk around, minimal difference, on-task you want to berserk first.

Phase 2

Note: if on-task, the second overpower isn't needed.

Phase 3

Rotation not as set in stone here because relentless5 / imp4 / adrenaline before timewarp can all change which abilities you use

vulnbomb timewarp (1t) → zerkgbargeadaptivestrikemeteorstrikeassaultdragonclaw eofspec / amhej cane / amhej overpower (last tick of timewarp) → amhej overpowerdragonclaw eofspecamhej assaultrendoverpowercane

Note: if off-task leave vestmentsofhavochood on ideally until ~115+ adrenaline and take off one ability before timewarp

Phase 4

Clone 1

lengmh berserk click clone → vulnbomb + gbargemeteorstrikegflurrydive to 2nd clone

Clone 2

vulnbomb + overpowerassault (3t) → punishsurge click 3rd clone and surge again

Clone 3

vulnbomb + chaosroardragonclaw eofspecamhej lengmh specdive to Kerapac

Note: if dba spec runs out here you might need one extra ability, but it shouldn't run out here.

Kerapac

overpowerezk speccane if not dead use one more ability (will happen if dba spec runs out)

Notes:

To save 1 GCD on clone 2 you need 3 primordialice + scriptureofful proc or 5+ primordialice and replace the assaultpunish with lengmh spec

On clone 3 you instead use pulverise / punish as the 3rd ability.

This means you need to powerburstofacceleration on clone 3 as dive won't be off CD to dive to Kerapac, or soverpower then dive and release with ezk spec
