A big tip for anyone that sucks at prayer switching for Araxxi just stand melee distance to her and pray melee and you'll take less damage overall than failing prayer flicks.
Interesting, after getting T90 tank armor I finally managed to kill him. BUT, phase 3 is hell. Takes 5 times as long as the rest of the fight combined, and uses almost all my food. Phase 4 is cake in comparizon.
should be noted that if you have darkness ability unlocked, it can be used with all styles, which makes the fight easier, same applies for invoke death which makes the last phase against araxxi much quicker
invoke death does not work with the other combat styles. you'll need a necromancy attack to apply the mark, and only necromancy attacks will trigger the mark. Darkness does work with other styles, so do the bone shields
been playing rs3 for 20 years always scared of trying raxx because everyone makes guides so complicated, yours made me try and get my first legit kill w/o dtd
mid path 54% acid is enough cuz 50% to fill ramp and 4% for lure up, then you can ignore eggs if its under rax so would push out from filling, for acid spider you can just barricade cuz will have enough time to rebuild for p3, for cleace ypu can just stand on second to last tile on top of ramp and just press freedom or anticipation b4 every 5th boss auto attack
My fellow necromancers: theres one thing you NEED to be careful of. If Arraxor/Arraxi gets hit with crackling or your death mark (either from the ability or the t90 power set effect) proc's while under the web shield, it will reflect all of the damage and basically instakill you. This is especially a problem in phase 1 where Arraxor keeps regenerating health and can be death marked/executed multiple times in rapid succession. More than one occasion I have been reflected a death mark execution while under web shield and saved by my defense cape perk on my igneous kal-mor only to be insta-killed again because death mark was immediately reapplied and quickly sent to deaths office.
I’d recommend using Necro. Even faster, bring whatever weapon at the start to focus on drops but then switch back to Necro. Faster than a sub 4 min kill
so because of how slow p1 and p2 are, you cant really kill the boss much faster? unless you take the minion path and run all the way to p3? cuz the acid pool and arrow key phases take so much longer than other phases i swear
Still, almost 2025 this boss managed to be hardest boss in the game for me. Not including group bosses. Once in while I try to do it and get rekt because not knowing what to do in P3. There is like 20+ mini spiders, araxx not taking damage and I get constant 3k hits.
They are on my list but I've not found the time to get working on those. You could potentially follow the necro guide monster wise if u you have the salve amulet e.
Every style will be the same against Necro. There won't really be a weaker one. If you want to force a specific style for hilt drop or if you want to avoid him using melee for mechanics, you can just use an instance and bring a main hand switch to force the specific style.
Thanks for making this guide so straight to the point. I found Araxxor much easier than Telos, I guess because there's no instakill mechanics unless you damage it at the wrong time. I killed Araxxor successfully first time in the beta servers and then the main game. I died 4 times to Telos before I got my shard! Both definitely got the heart rate up lol. Now just to get a friend to dart Amby for me :')
This was helpful up until phase 3.. I picked acid path, but in phase 3 the boss is just constantly healing and summoning spiders none stop, I couldn't do anything to it, had to leave.
@@ProtoxxGaming People said this boss was easy for beginners, people lied ;-; Thanks for the fast reply, I killed every single spider this time and he still fully heals. Just a beam comes from nowhere ad he's full health again EDIT: Okay it's a time thing after awhile they stop healing but I'm completely out of food and had leave again... This boss isn't for me
I don't know what's wrong but my arrow keys don't work on this boss. My character just stands there like a dumbass while the spider is charging no matter how many times I press the keys
Just funny only slaying tasks needed for me to unlock completionist cape. I'm always bad at bossing like needed to waste much more supplies and death cost penalty in one session but never really accomplished from Araxx because of panic, phobia and shits. If only practice mode will recover all used supplies after battle. 6 years past after my last online, I still don't think can make it and I think also much harder gameplay on mobile platform. Bossing usually requires many windows to open simultaneously like prayer, ability, spell, slot for equip change, potion sets, familiar. So far only RuneScape has that complexity. How dare others compare RS to WoW. WoW still can't catch up what vastness of content RS had. Although I'm way too behind with the new contents and actual gameplay, what I still enjoyed and keep entertained is reading stuffs from RS Wiki on latest news.
Are you taking about the "lumbridge strikes back achievement"? Do it using full bronze + bronze crossbow, except you can use an off-hand ascension crossbow to do it. You can use high tier ammo as you please
I have the stats and funds todo this boss but I have not once ever tried it because it seems too complicated and I have the attention span of a goldfish.
@@ProtoxxGaming bro i have tried hundreds of times. i just can't get the hang of it. i have maxed stats also. this and telos are 2 bosses i just can't get right. i always panic and die
Out of all the Araxxor guides i’ve watched, this one is by far the best 4 mins of my life invested.
Great reading of the room. New players with Necro that don't know the boss well at all. Very smart video. :)
Just leave me alone already 🥺
That's what you get for dropping leg pieces
thank him, maybe now I'll learn bossing :p
Well this comment made my morning lol
Last time i tried it, it just fk kill me lol i dint know what to do fk hate pvm a lot of sht from it
Time for you to do a simplified guide for killing protoxx?
A big tip for anyone that sucks at prayer switching for Araxxi just stand melee distance to her and pray melee and you'll take less damage overall than failing prayer flicks.
@@ihatelols thats the Tick system built into runescape, not actual lag, its very clunky
@@ihatelolsbruh how did u have 3.5b and not know how ticks worked
Haha Nice!
It feels great watching a boss guide for such an oldie but still good boss :)
Remember, web and mirror spiders will reflect instant kill from necro power armor so bring tank gear if you have it to avoid stress
this is so stupid tbh
Must have been patched because ive killed him in webshield with insta kill many times.
Yeah it doesn't do that now at least
Should make
Guides like
This for all bosses.
Interesting, after getting T90 tank armor I finally managed to kill him. BUT, phase 3 is hell. Takes 5 times as long as the rest of the fight combined, and uses almost all my food.
Phase 4 is cake in comparizon.
Unironically a skill issue, I've killed rax with zero food used
Great video man! Short and sweet but also Very informative! My t90 Deathwarden set makes this boss easy now, but it was still good to watch.
I love the minion path icon ❤
that cute spider pic is way too deceptive to how evil these little shits really are
Perfect guide, currently perfected minion path and it's honestly my favourite, darkness is fun, haven't had acid path yet as only started arraxi today
lol i like how the video just simply ends.
No outro, just use the pheromone -end-

thankkk youuuuuuuuuuu sooooo muchhhhh 5min guides for bosses are perfect
Do you think full bronze and a staff of fire would work for gear? And what if I brought just 28 sharks. Would I be able to win?
Nah you'll need Sailfish but otherwise you're good!
been playing rs3 for 20 years always scared of trying raxx because everyone makes guides so complicated, yours made me try and get my first legit kill w/o dtd
Good to hear that :D
Did it because of this guide. Thanks a lot buddy.
mid path 54% acid is enough cuz 50% to fill ramp and 4% for lure up, then you can ignore eggs if its under rax so would push out from filling, for acid spider you can just barricade cuz will have enough time to rebuild for p3, for cleace ypu can just stand on second to last tile on top of ramp and just press freedom or anticipation b4 every 5th boss auto attack
Should I be able to kill it with masterwork armour and dragon rider lance? I have 99 melee skills and 95 prayer.

So, basically... fight Araxxor with Deathdealer robes at your own risk. ⚠
There’s an ability that ceases combat. Use it ;)
Probably should say freedom and anticipation only reduce from webbing cocoon prior to being coccooned.
Why do I stay at the acid path for like 10mins and the acid stop at 50% when i go up ramp.. so I have to go up and down to top up arraxor acidity..
I’d recommend using Necro. Even faster, bring whatever weapon at the start to focus on drops but then switch back to Necro. Faster than a sub 4 min kill
4 minutes stands for guide to the boss in 4 minutes haha :)
Yeah I bring a magic Main then swap to Necro again for that scythe hilt
@@sumofit4475 a lot of times it kinda just blends in with the surrounding
Im pretty sure with large enough damage, when you get arraxi to 0 hp in p1 and keep bursting him, he no longer spawns adds on p3. just a note
very nice guide!
wait what no sit back relax and enjoyyyyy. awesome guide man thanks and thanksfor the sit-back nerf lol
2:14
*spit sound*
Is there a reason why the bottom leg piece(darkness path) wont drop? Im pretty sure I killed him over 70 times and it still won’t drop
so because of how slow p1 and p2 are, you cant really kill the boss much faster? unless you take the minion path and run all the way to p3? cuz the acid pool and arrow key phases take so much longer than other phases i swear
Can you do more 4 minutes Boss guides?
Perhaps ;)
I must've smoked some grimy ranarr cause this doesn't look like OSRS...
So there’s a log for arraxi, is there one for arraxor
Still, almost 2025 this boss managed to be hardest boss in the game for me. Not including group bosses. Once in while I try to do it and get rekt because not knowing what to do in P3. There is like 20+ mini spiders, araxx not taking damage and I get constant 3k hits.
any chance for a guide to ranged/magic/melee combat exp, cant find any "new" guides on it anywhere
They are on my list but I've not found the time to get working on those. You could potentially follow the necro guide monster wise if u you have the salve amulet e.
Spider bug, spider bug.
Dies like any other spider bug does.
Eugh! A spider bug. **SQUASH!**
So hang on, do you kill all minion spiders but just prioritise the special ones?
can i bait rax to be melee when im using necro if i take a ranged weapon?
That makes him spawn in magic form.
I bring a melee main hand to force a ranged spawn. I find rax hits harder with melee, why do you want melee spawn?
Got my first! Ty sir!!
as of 120 necro ive officially killed it twice in a duo. I have never been able to do this thing even with 99 dungeoneering or whatever.
Is it worth having a Araxyte Pheromone on me to force a weaker combat style when running Araxxor with necromancy? Will it even make a difference?
there is no weaker combat style, necro is outside the combat triangle.
Every style will be the same against Necro. There won't really be a weaker one.
If you want to force a specific style for hilt drop or if you want to avoid him using melee for mechanics, you can just use an instance and bring a main hand switch to force the specific style.
Ty I just got my first kill no dart ❤
Well done!
Can you do some 4 min boss guides for alot of the newer bosses and best bosses for ranged,
Weird I'm doing arraxi rn. How do people phase skip him? That blows my mind.
Pretty sure you just surge to p3 really fast and surge back only works on top path
I love this type of video

I just realised I was going to put out my spiders in the medium pens in POF for the damage boosting perk and completely forgot! hah
Arraxor proposed to coming to OSRS. 🚨HERE WE GO🚨
I saw that, hmmm
I just started this boss. On my 50th kill and iv gotten 6 leg pieces and webs. Is this normal or am I getting lucky?
I think the drop chance is around 1/40 per piece so you're pretty lucky congratz
@ thanks yea it’s crazy I’m on 200-300 kills. I have the scythe, 2 bows, 2 completed leg pieces and 3 of the pets.
idk why everyone says minion is most difficult, i find it the easiest. especially with necro, just burst dmg the minions
Yeah, everyone's gangsta until the hidden Mirrorback Spawns in the middle of your Death Skulls.
This was helpful up until phase 3.. I picked acid path, but in phase 3 the boss is just constantly healing and summoning spiders none stop, I couldn't do anything to it, had to leave.
Thats normal, eventually the boss will stop healing. You had path 1&2 open (1 for minions)
@@ProtoxxGaming People said this boss was easy for beginners, people lied ;-; Thanks for the fast reply, I killed every single spider this time and he still fully heals. Just a beam comes from nowhere ad he's full health again
EDIT: Okay it's a time thing after awhile they stop healing but I'm completely out of food and had leave again... This boss isn't for me
how come on phase 3 like 6 spiders spawned on me and started attacking me lol haven't seen this happen to anyone
I don't know what's wrong but my arrow keys don't work on this boss.
My character just stands there like a dumbass while the spider is charging no matter how many times I press the keys
just click the arrows on the screen with your mouse
Stage 3 is too simplified, I don't understand what to do in this stage and I keep getting killed while Araxxor just spits at me with 101k hp :(
ive been able to get sub 3 minute kills with necro for top path :o though its usually sub 4 minutes, never tried to do the skip though
my advice is to use deathmark when he webs :)
Still have no clue how to defeat that mothaf

My gf has arachnophobia so I'm here even though I have no clue about runescape to speedrun learning it so I can do it for her
how can i kill with bronze armor set and weapons ?
Are you taking about the "lumbridge strikes back achievement"? Do it using full bronze + bronze crossbow, except you can use an off-hand ascension crossbow to do it. You can use high tier ammo as you please
Yeah.. no.. this just isn't for me. Got minion path, everything turned dark anyway, and I insta died.
Spooder Boi. 🕷
I have the stats and funds todo this boss but I have not once ever tried it because it seems too complicated and I have the attention span of a goldfish.
If you suck at prayer flicking on the last phase just stand melee distance and pray melee and she'll use all 3 styles but melee more active it seems.
About as long as an Araxxor kilk, i have 1k kc already so aint nothing new to me.
the video may be 4 minutes but i dont think i will learn it in that time :O
I'm afraid of spiders what am I doing here
Ive never fought this boss :(
yeah i still can't do it. far too much to think about all at the same time.
Have you tried? I'm sure you can do it.
@@ProtoxxGaming bro i have tried hundreds of times. i just can't get the hang of it. i have maxed stats also. this and telos are 2 bosses i just can't get right. i always panic and die
@@foreverhungry84 In what paths and where do you get stuck at?
I agree that this boss is outrageously overcomplicated.
@@mattstor555 How so?
Show vorkath and rasial updated.
bro i thought i was easy tpp much mechanics
Wtf keeps one shooting me
Pog
Gotta watch out for the jihad spider lol
Never did like pvm a lot of sht from it
why did i even watch this
to support ig
No point doing this boss, it’s not profitable given how cheap the weapons are now.

Great video, but you talk way too slow. :)
