Loadout

Your bank can't produce a valid loadout (you need at least a weapon you can equip). Buy a starter weapon first.

Results

DPS vs Kraken

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

Info
  • Use a Burst / Barrage spell on the tentacles
    Kraken stays asleep until you wake all 4 enormous tentacles. The fastest way is a single Burst / Barrage AoE spell — wakes all 4 in one cast.
  • Pray Magic
    Once awake, Kraken attacks with magic. Protect from Magic tanks the +25 hits.
  • Use magic (Trident) — the AFK standard
    You fight Kraken from a fixed tile out of melee range, so magic (or ranged) is the practical choice — and its defence level is only 1, so anything hits. A powered staff is the go-to: Trident of the swamp / Sang / Harmonised Surge.
  • AFK-friendly
    Trident has long enough charge per dose to AFK; just bring food in case prayer drops. Kraken is one of the most chill PvM bosses.
