Summary

A narrated kill of the Corrupted Hunllef in the Corrupted Gauntlet, showing how Gnomonkey counts the boss's attacks out loud to time weapon and prayer swaps. The main takeaway is to count every attack, pre-position the cursor on the next swap, keep moving to dodge tornadoes, and prioritise healing when the tornadoes increase.

Outline

  • 0:00 Loadout (tier three halberd and bow, tier one armour, two four-dose potions) and starting on protect from ranged
  • 0:26 Swapping weapons roughly every four to five hits and the first special attack
  • 0:54 Two tornadoes: healing, free hits, and drinking prayer doses during ranged attacks
  • 1:28 Floor tiles and avoiding being stuck under the boss
  • 1:59 Three tornadoes below 500 health
  • 2:25 Cursor pre-positioning on the next prayer or weapon
  • 2:52 Four tornadoes and the hectic final phase
  • 3:53 Kill result: loot, kill time and typical kill times

Topics covered

Corrupted Hunllef

  • (0:00) In the Corrupted Hunllef fight Gnomonkey starts by clicking protect from ranged first, because ranged is always the first attack the boss uses.
  • (0:00) Gnomonkey counts the Corrupted Hunllef's attacks out loud throughout the fight so that he knows when its attack style is about to change.
  • (0:26) The player needs to swap weapons roughly every five hits against the Corrupted Hunllef, matching the boss's switch between magic and ranged attacks.
  • (0:26) The Corrupted Hunllef usually performs its tornado special attack at about 10 attacks.
  • (0:54) While the Corrupted Hunllef is on only two tornadoes it is easy to attack it while the tornadoes are out.
  • (0:54) Gnomonkey drinks prayer doses while the Corrupted Hunllef is using ranged attacks, since that is an easy time to do it.
  • (0:54) Almost every time the Corrupted Hunllef uses magic it will also use the prayer-disabling attack, so the player should swap to ranged afterwards.
  • (1:28) The floor in the Corrupted Hunllef room can pinch the player, so Gnomonkey advises keeping distance from the boss so he is not stuck under it.
  • (1:59) The Corrupted Hunllef sends out three tornadoes once it is under 500 health.
  • (1:59) From three tornadoes onwards Gnomonkey focuses mainly on healing, since the tornadoes become much more dangerous.
  • (1:59) Tornadoes in the Corrupted Hunllef fight are easy to dodge as long as the player keeps running; standing still will get the player killed.
  • (2:25) Gnomonkey keeps his cursor over the next thing he expects to do, such as the next prayer, or the weapon if he expects to swap weapons first.
  • (2:52) The Corrupted Hunllef sends out four tornadoes in the last part of the fight, which Gnomonkey describes as very hectic.
  • (2:52) In the four-tornado phase the Corrupted Hunllef can also melee the player, and Gnomonkey mainly focuses on healing.
  • (3:21) Gnomonkey eats an extra fish for 18 health instead of 20 to make sure he is at full health in the last part of the fight, which he calls very dangerous.
  • (3:53) Gnomonkey warns not to assume hits will land at the end of the Corrupted Hunllef fight, since the player's weapons can hit zeros five or even more times in a row.
  • (3:53) Gnomonkey's demonstrated Corrupted Hunllef kill took 3:51 and gave about 180k in loot plus the shards.
  • (3:53) Corrupted Hunllef kills often take a bit over four minutes, and sometimes about three minutes with luck.
