Results

DPS vs Cerberus

Hybrid armour

For multi-style bosses. Pick the styles you'll use and how many gear slots you're willing to switch — fewer switches share more armour (easier to play), more switches push each style toward its best gear. The weapon always switches.

Styles

Connect your bank (sync from the plugin) to build a hybrid setup from your gear.

Boss mechanics

Have it Missing Info
  • Prayer flick the auto attacks
    Cerberus auto-attacks rotate Magic → Ranged → Melee in a fixed pattern. Flick the correct protection prayer for each attack to take 0 damage. Misses cost ~25.
  • Handle the summoning souls (50% HP)
    At 50% HP Cerberus spawns 3 souls (one of each combat style). Each takes ~3 hits with whatever style matches its protection prayer. Tank them under the right prayer or kill them quickly.
  • Avoid the lava pools
    Cerberus spawns 3 lava pools at 200 HP. Walk out of the active one — they deal ~15 per tick.
  • Food + prayer restore
    Sharks/Manta + Prayer pots or Sara brews + Super restores.
  • Slayer task bonus (optional)
    Cerberus is on the Hellhound slayer task. On task, Slayer helmet (i) gives +15% ranged/magic accuracy & damage — significant DPS uplift.
