Casual Melee Colosseum w/ Max Gear

ok fine dwh is kinda cool. open description for invo tier list hood certified
-------------
Invo tier list for Meleeing waves 1-11:
• S (always take): Blasphemy 1/2/3, Myopia 1/2/3, Solarflare 1
• A (second pick): Quartet, Frailty 1/2, Solarflare 2
• B (ok i guess): Frailty 2, Reentry 1, Dynamic Duo, Volatility 1
• C (rather not unless necessary and no reset): Bees 1, Frailty 3, Reentry 2, Red Flag, Solarflare 3, Volatility 2
• D (d for dogshit, never take if possible & reset if only options remaining): Bees 2/3, Doom, The Doom Scorpion, Reentry 3, Relentless 1/2/3, Volatility 3, Totemic
** Situational / Notes **
• Bees 1 - Manageable. Just annoying.
• Dynamic Duo - I like this especially if offered wave 8/9/10. Mage colossus doesn't have that much HP.
• Red Flag - Last resort pick if late waves and not wanting to reset.
• Solarflare 3 - Not as bad as it makes it out to be, but have to play a lot slower and safer. OK/last resort pick if late waves.
• Volatility 1/2 - 1 is ok. 2 is really trash for waves. GL with the nibblers
-------------
Invo list /specific/ to wave 12 (Sol), only if offered then:
• Bees: No / annoying
• Blasphemy: Take
• Doom: Not bad actually. You're probably dead before 20 hits anyways
• The Doom Scorpion: No. Maybe if it gets nerfed
• Dynamic Duo: I don't even know if this can be offered
• Frailty: Tier 3 is a maybe. Depends on how confident you are at boss. Will kill you if you fail the prayer attack
• Myopia: Take / don't know if it can be offered
• Reentry: I don't even know if this can be offered
• Red Flag: I don't even know if this can be offered
• Relentless: Not bad/maybe. Also likely dead if you miss prayer attack
• Solarflare: Take for any tier. Very manageable especially if you have the tiles marked
• Quartet: Take
• Totemic: Not bad/Maybe. With proper DPS, it should only spawn once
• Volatility: Take 1/2. Deals like 25ish damage if you miss it. Tier 3, maybe, because you can might get ragged by the molten sand afterwards (extra dmg). Still should be a free invo regardless.
-------------
General guide
• Melee stuff, claw stuff (magers) out of the equation so you don't have to think about how to solve the stack, run south to restack, and in 300 range defense we trust
• Get good at boss or have 10 brews going in like I did so I can facetank everything

Best comment

[@Krabby_Patty_XD]

Thanks bro

[@jbugz134]

That wack with the sgs at 22:00 was personal. Had to tank couple them hits 😂😂 great vid

[@MrYoyoyoh]

Thanks man great inventory settup and i was looking for a chill melee run :)

[@Me_Sean]

Saved-- That description is goated, thanks king.

[@jjsco6282]

Great video, ive been trying to figure out a good switch for the warbanders. Im gonna use sang staff!

[@wesleybatista4073]

good job brotha 👍

[@jjsco6282]

Great video

[@Icyuzu]

Looks good, the 1 way sang is kinda nice compared to the 4 way shadow.

[@JR113FTW]

Ok... I'm goin melee. Good shit.

[@glhfsir]

WILDFIRE!!

[@ElNormano]

General idea looks to be to keep west side safe for safespots/isolating? (in terms of prioritizing mobs)

[@bigbongos_]

Pretty much. Can easily run south to resolve as well, usually while just praying against manticore

[@ancientSumerian]

this guy could be a gm someday

[@donataskusleika8256]

Amazing run. How do you have tiles highlighted that you drag your cursor on? It would be a huge help sir

[@bigbongos_]

You mean when I move my mouse and the tile it's hovering on gets highlighted? Tile Indicators plugin - highlight hovered tile

[@emil8229]

my man

[@MrYoyoyoh]

Nice

[@SwagMcYolo]

What runelite animation addon are u using? Looks so smooth

[@bigbongos_]

Just a combo of animation smoothing + 60 fps video rendering. Probably just looks smoother on video, you can achieve same results on your end as well if you turn up the GPU/fps control plugin to allow for 60 fps and above

[@GwenLavender]

Think it's doable with everything else minus Scythe? Id assume you'd have to bring an Avernic to make up for the dps loss.

[@bigbongos_]

Doable of course but scythe is a pretty big crutch for first capers cause damage is king. However, the whole goal of this is to have one style attacking you so not like it matters too much. Claws more than make up for a lot of the burst dps you would need to solve a wave. Could even just milk specs after each wave is solved

[@GwenLavender]

@@bigbongos_ ngl I'm so tempted to sell my tbow for a scythe.

[@bigbongos_]

@@GwenLavender Ya I mean it's tempting but you gotta remember that these deaths are costly so unless you got spare cash afterwards then probably not even worth doing this at the moment

[@TheAprc1]

How you get the wave info top left corner?

[@bigbongos_]

Fortis Colosseum plugin on the hub

[@NickOats]

any tips on melee pray for the boss? I can never time it

[@akaviral5476]

Listen for it, honestly. Watch a video for the rhythm and timing I suppose

[@bigbongos_]

Saw a comment that said to click the prayer when u see the sparkles around the spear disappear. It's 24:35 in the video when it starts. Can reference when I click vs. when the sparkles disappear, if that helps. This is the one I completely miss so you should probably find another example lol.

[@MaxCaliffDPT]

Any reason you didn’t bring shadow instead of sang? 3 way with heart can 1 hit I’m P sure

[@Baun92]

Because it's 4 inv slots compared to 1. Not very hard to figure out.

[@bigbongos_]

In the beginning, it would've been for supplies in case I ever royally fucked up. Would definitely bring the mage switches to 1 shot if needed. For max recline, I'm still bringing a sang only to double tap and just bring more restores instead so I don't have to flick at all (+ thrall book / runes as well). You lose 3 ticks compared to shadow every wave so up to you to determine how worth that is for your runs

[@MaxCaliffDPT]

@@Baun92 tf? Who cares about that when you’re going for a pb. It saves ticks to 1 shot. Not hard to figure that out either kek

[@Baun92]

@@MaxCaliffDPT Who said he's going for a PB? No need to get aggressive because I answered your question. He saves 3 inv slots by doing this method.

[@MaxCaliffDPT]

@@Baun92 bc he’s using melee with thralls? It was a simple question for the creator of this video. You were the one getting snarky, bud.

[@dankscytheok8864]

Just fyi colo monsters hp doesnt read correctly sometimes so watch the outlines for death rather than hp and hit

[@sirhenry0]

max gear is definition of casual xD

[@XJ9LoL]

Thumb nail should show the blood fury as it's the most broken item you are using.

[@Kamboozled]

No way we went from death threats in league to colosseum runs

[@Cornhusker1994]

Why no thralls?

[@bigbongos_]

No reason, should bring as much as you can if you are able to.

[@ethanc2542]

is it a plugin for your prayers to not show the description if you hover over them? yours just shows activate or deactivate that looks so much nicer

[@bigbongos_]

In game setting - show prayer tooltips

[@NecrofearFaLLen]

Song used during boss fight? 👀

[@bigbongos_]

Wildfire - Honkai Star Rail

[@KoRnGuitarHead]

Got no mace, can replace it with saeldor maybe?

[@bigbongos_]

They’re all the same, mace just has the +4 prayer bonus for extra recline

[@KoRnGuitarHead]
