Just popping in to say, I'm going melee for leagues 5 at the moment and this guide is exactly what I was looking for, so thank you so much. Currently 90% of it is going over my head but I am excited to watch it 10+ more times. Take care mate, thanks again.
116 attempts later and i got my quiver with a noxious halberd and fighter torso. I am now going back to grind the shit out of it until i can afford a scythe. thank you for this guide my friend, i found myself referring to this video many times in my attempts. thank you
You didnt mention it but osmumten's fang is the next best downgrade after soulreaper for clearing waves, just bring a tentacle switch or something for the boss though I did the colosseum in blood moon gear with a fang, and so can you!
Thank you for this I was using wiki gear guide and just seemed to be over complicating it. Such a smooth run through now. Time to challenge the CAs though.
I'm one of those pkers that kind of suck or slack at PvM, lol. So I'm having a go at getting a quiver, and, more into non pvp content. This guide is very descriptive, so thank you for that mate.
I sold Tbow for a scythe to start the Colo grind. Honestly I think Inferno is designed way better. Colo feels super jank, click boxes are awful, All of the invos are horrible. NGL I would have liked to try Doom Scorpion once I get a KC under my belt though. Anyway, I thought I understood off ticking, pathing and line of sight until I came to this place.
Good guide, but I don't like the whole " doesn't require max gear" when you still take in a scythe with bandos. That's just barely not bis, considering you're still bringing a venator, SGS, claws etc. If you want to recommend bringing the soul reaper axe for the waves, I'd like to see a run with it and see if you still think the same after. Other than that, the editing and format for the video is very well done.
Gear very rarely matters in PVM. It's always physical ability > stats > gear. If you can do it with a scythe, you can do it with a tent whip. I did my first quiver and about 30kc with a tent whip, lol.
very good guide, made it to wave 11 three times yesterday but just got shafted. Im also shocked how well the dinny b run south tech works, shirley quiver by next week :)
I cannot afford a soul reaper axe, how does the noxious halberd/tent whip perform? Is it worth doing this now? Or waiting until I can afford a soul reaper axe?
As I've been doing this for a few hours, I find myself going back and forth in the guide a lot. I've already written them down myself, but is there a way to add timestamps to this guide?
Both of these invocations were changed during a patch so now the soul reaper axe does not interact with either invocation and it's perfectly viable. From the wiki: "Self-damaging items will no longer apply doom" "Self-damaging items will no longer drain prayer points if Blasphemy is active"
@@SKELEWIZ You don't really need more accuracy or damage since you will still 2 shot the melee fremmy so I would just go for a tank shield like the dfs.
I tried bringing only a Kodai + Spectral in Full Torva and I 100% splash on the fremmennk that way. -28 magic attack in my setup. So idk about this, cant really follow the no mage gear recommendation.
@@GaryDuels I looked up on this and apparrently Ice Barrage or Ice Burst have a high miss chance lol. The Wiki mentions that in one sentence on the colosseum page. Well I guess I will try again with Blood Spells or just with a Sang Staff :D
If someone going for a quiver doesn't know how to charge a dfs then they shouldn't watch this video, but you can just buy bottle dragonbreath and charge it instantly.
@@JohnSmith-rr3jt yea in hindsite I think this was a bit click bate, but in my defence, when I completed the content for the first time, the scyth was cheaper than it is now and I offered the soul reaper axe as an alternative. Also, at the time people were running a combination of max melee and max mage (or range) which adds like an additional 2-3bil to the setup cost. I do still believe the soul reaper axe is a viable alternative to the scyth though.
From my understanding, the quiver is bis for range, so itd make sense if the activity to get it would require high stats for your average player. Obviously theres gonna be some super sweat out there that can do this with way lower stats, but for people like me who are bad at the game, i wont be trying this until i have those higher stats and gear
Hey man, yea unfortunately this is end game content so you will need decent stats and gear. Do you have any particular event/boss in game that you are interested in? I would be happy to make another guide for something a bit more accessible. I have a few other videos I’m cooking up so they won’t all be this style of end game content.
@@GaryDuels all good. im almost maxed combat and was planning to learn inferno (which i know is doable before maxed). so i just assumed this was in the same boat at first when i clicked the video. i will definitely come back here when doing colosseum later :)
@@GaryDuelswow I’m a long way off , I’m about to get 70 prayer and get medium combat ticked off for barrow grind , I’m a few stages away but good to aim for , any CA you have ?
@@danbill9165 you should try to do all the ca's that you can do if possible they will really help you, but I also recommend doing nex for gp if you are in need
I have to tell you brother, your start tile is 6 tiles out from pillar and every other guide i've watched is 5 tiles out. I used your tile when i starting learning and constantly got fucked over on the start of waves despite clicking on the right clicks, someone pointed out that my tile is too far out, i switched it to the 5th tile and my completions went up by like 50%. Your guide is good, but you legit costed me like 20m in deaths and countless hours
This osrs content is only topped by odablock. Would you consider releasing a pking tutorial, I’m new to the game and am struggling with hitting my dps spekkle.
You didn't really show any examples of how to deal with the start of the waves. You only showed some very basic stack solves, could've showed some examples of a full wave.
Hey man, I often take doom 1 but it’s not the best for learning since you will be getting hit a fair bit so I gave it a low ranking. I had a similar thought with relentless since when learning you will need to run between pillars more often.
thing is, this a very well put together guide, editing and all, but mele only is bad for every possible reason. you dont need 15 brews if you dont run pillar every time you see a south spawn
So you gonna pay me for the 35 deaths I’ve gotten since swapping to melee only or nah? Every single person I talk to tells me melee only is for people that already know how to beat it. I’m not actually blaming you but I definitely could see the tbow route being way easier for wave solving
Honestly it's such bad advice. Melee only makes wave solves so much more complicated. You'd legit be far better off taking a crystal armour + bowfa and a simple melee switch with a tent whip
you dont need that many supplies, so taking a 4 way range switch is free. taking a range switch just allows you to tackle awkward waves, it doesnt mean you range everything, you can still kill the singles with a bloodfury to heal. you literally start off a video by running pillars from a single south spawn lol. also range switch allows you to take awkward invos like volatility without pain. recommending mele only is just bad for any1. only way to do mele only is dihns propaganda with full justi
Hey mate, if you don’t have access to a blood fury you can unequip your armour and blood barrage a mob at the end of each wave. I guess you just need to ask yourself if it’s more effort to blood barrage back up, or to just go and farm a blood shard.
@@grnwlk yea the amulet just makes the whole experience very forgiving which is great for learning but it’s not necessary if you don’t make allot of mistakes. I don’t like blood barraging back to full health because I view it as a waste of time. The blood fury allows you to heal up without wasting time which means you get more attempts in a shorter period of time and you learn faster.

Dudeeeee genuinely such a good guide. Not rushed and well thought out. Very organized and simplified. Well done 😮💨
Absolute beautiful dissertation. This guide blows all other guides out of the water by a thousand miles.
I feel like I’ve watched every guide on colosseum and this is by far the best and easiest to watch
small tip about the dfs charging, there is an item called bottled dragonfire or something that instantly charges the shield for like 15k GP
Ahh that's cool, I've never heard about that before!
I'm always kind of floored how few people know about this item since it's so cheap, and even cheaper to make.
@@Saplingbat Oh yeah as a pker who planks often there is no way im charging my dfs naturally lol
@@GaryDuels i only first heard about it 2 years ago myself (been around a lot longer), it's a game changer for sure. Welcome to the light
It seriously never ceases to amaze me how many people don't know about this, tbf it's not exactly well advertised

Doom scorpian was the worst. Offticking npcs from behind the pillar works the same as inferno.
Also I’m not sure if you know this but you can actually buy an item called bottled dragon fire on the GE.
your videos are insanely good!!!
Thanks mate, it means allot.
Can't wait to try this on my iron man in a year! But seriously, great video and guide!!

update the DFS, you can charge it with bottled dragonfire from the ge if you are not an iron
#108 attempts, #16 boss attempts, finally did it
@@harrypounds456 nice man! I had something similar to that I think. What weapon did you use?

Melle method is definitely harder than barrage/shadow method.
