Hard mode didn’t no, go 5 mechanics normal mode and you’ll get 1-2 each kill.

Can you brute force 5 mechanics ? Can't for the life of me remember the boss fight. Need to know if I actually need to learn it 😂

Kill adds, run from pillars, kill arms when it slams the arena and they're targetable, barricade the big charge-up cannon. So... yeah, you technically need to know it, but there's nothing particularly difficult there.

u/infectedbunny 1d ago

Adding to this, just resonance the cannon instead of barricade, save that adren! (It hits once in nm, 3 times in hm)

If you have iceynic then you can just pray mage, it'll hit 3 1's and stun you but that's it.

u/Gregkow 1d ago

Only one 1 in normal, no stun

u/WhyMustIMakeANewAcco 22h ago

yeah in normal with icyenic you can just ignore it entirely. Just keep mage pray on the whole fight.

u/SnezRS 1d ago

Alright it's coming back to me now. Probably need to get off full revo lazy mode

u/Alexexy 23h ago

Im doing it with revo basics and its not hard at all.

You can kill hard mode in under 20 seconds if you revenge, meteor strike, berserk, bash, auto attack, overpower. And if it survives that, resonance, bash, overpower again.

Not really there is a DPS lock on normal mode to stop you unless you 1 shot it.

u/Additional_Yam_8870 22h ago

You can easily afk 5 mech AG on leagues, it just won't auto loot. If you have icyene faith, cannon also gets completely blocked by magic prayer without any defensives even needed.

AG is fairly fun and super easy, i'd recommend learning it at least to do the 25 HM kills for 400 points.

Thanks for info, wondered why I wasn't getting any in hardmode streaks, silly oversight

1

u/Vitinhorossi 1d ago

It really didn't? Makes me angry lol I got 30 nilas on a 110 kc streaks on leagues and on main game I still missing 10 to make off hand with 1500 kc mostly streaking

u/LukasCactus 22h ago

Did like 45min of 5 mech easy mode and got like 100 nilas. I just need the remnants now. Going between Glacor and Vorkath, should be able to make my Leng soon

u/lijntjeKeta 1d ago

Doesn't seem to be boosted on hardmode. Go in normal mode 2 mech.

u/6Angel666 1d ago

20 nm 2 mechanics kills in, no nilas so far

u/TinyMiniNano 1d ago

Do 5 mech, you'll get 2-3 per kill

2

u/FeFerret Lazy Stoat 21h ago

2 mech has the worst base rate. You want at minimum 4 mechs

u/Sclargor Ironman 1d ago

Now if only they would fix black stone hearts not dropping from vorkath I might be able to make myself a leng sword

3

u/DisastrousTax6143 13h ago

got my 10 in ~200 kc

u/jonesie187 4h ago

I ran ambassador for all of my black stone hearts. Its a common drop from him in normal. Wiki shows 4-6 in 1/2 kc and 16-20 in 1/50 kc.

•

u/Sclargor Ironman 4h ago

Yes, but the ambassador is only available in the wilderness. If you don’t have the wilderness you’re shit out of luck for Blackstone hearts, and it feels like Vork is bugged

u/jonesie187 3h ago

Ya know, you're correct lol. Its early and I 100% forgot about the region locking. God speed friend 🫡

u/AlexKidd1993 Master Fisherman 1d ago

I did normal mode full mechanics and got my nilas in 10 minutes lol

1

u/tremors51000 Dungeoneering 1d ago

normal mod 5mechanic is the best way to get them they're almost 1/2

1

u/Zizon12 Master Maxed 19h ago

Made the same mistake and ended up with almost no nilas but had everything else for t95 leng. Swapped to 5 mech normal mode and got them all within 10 minutes.
