A Complete Guide to Hard Mode Kerapac for Beginners | Runescape 3

I'd like to make a small correction in regards to the time tear - if you miss the time tear, the next time he does time tear you can still stand under him to prevent it from spawning.
The Echoes of Kerapac that repeat this in phases 2 and 3 will only spawn if you phased him after he successfully uses the time tear attack. If you cycle and you prevent the time tear, then phase it, the echoes won't spawn again as they rely on the last cycle he was on. I can vouch this from multiple, multiple failed attempts to kill him, but several successful cases in which he's cycled after a failed tear skip.

Hi rs Guy !! Awesome you tuber , can you make a optimal rotation i can follow for p4 ?

I just got my first HM solo kill, In no small part thanks to this guide. Keep up the good work Ryan!!

Finally!! a guide maker who explains defensives and not just the boss mechanics. More guide makers would do well to learn from you and make better content. The amount of trash guides on Kerapac is unreal. Sometimes I wish you could force link a good guide like this one over the garbage ones. There are a few culprits (they know who they are) cough Protoxx who like to spew out guides with a ton of incorrect information, and they don't even take the time to fix it or tell people about it. They just want the clicks and views. Thank Ryan, this is a guide I will be linking to new players who ask about Kerapac.

As someone who has 100 normal mode kills by now I really want to start doing hm, but that phase 4 part 1 really scares me so much out of it. But at this point I died so much at Zuk that dying doesn't even feel bad at this point, I hope it works without animate dead, because ports takes really a long time and magic dual wield is as expensive as it gets.(would the animate dead tradable seasingers+gconc and helwyr weapons be better then full T90 range with bak bolts, without grico?)

This man is literally fueling peoples banks with his guides. He's so in depth with his guides it's unreal and he's got an energy in his streams that makes you just want to keep going no matter what

Hey I saw you in game the other day and said thank you for your videos the other day. I just wanted to say the way you broke down the mechs and showed clips of what they were and exactly what to do to evade them made this extremely easy for me learn tried a normal mode kill and used zero food so im just going to dive right into the hard mode. Thanks again for the time you took to make this guide and many others!

Wait does the slayer helm work with reaper assignments ?

dope guide, well done!

Hey got my first solo hm kill yesterday. Did it with bik arrows and blood reaver so I guess I cheesed it... but thank you your guide has elevated my pvming. Love the content. First time commenting....but I watch your videos often. Also good to see your rise to current status in jagexes eye. Keep it up

Nice guide

awesome video! finally starting kerapac

I tried this with full sirenic armor ascension weapon best auras absolutely everything there is and I get melted in 5 sec on phase 4 with like already 14minutes on the timer it's just impossible I give up

How are you surging three times ?!

For the jump mechanic if I’m not confident dodging it I just anticipate and keep moving or surge

Any tips to master the defence abilities?

Awesome guide! I just got spooned a 24kc kerry pet XD, day 2 of kerapac normal mode. Practicing for hardmode someday.

Thanks for the nice guide.

I respect the time you took to make this boss easy for most people, but this is meant to be a end game boss. So using lower t gear won’t fly with the end game players maybe if the people are soloing sure.

can u make magic (in like this gear) guide to raksha ? i tried for 2-3 hours get a signle kill and well :V For kerapac im done already 4kills:D thanks

Hey there, might be a bit late to the party. But when it comes to the second sunshine in p4, you can actually just timewarp - devo - basic - basic - sunshine. Sunshine will go off right before timewarp pulls you back, meaning you can instantly start dumping thresholds without using your adrenaline potion AND still benefitting from the double devo duration as well as a full duration sunshine where you started with 100% adren (basically a relentless sunshine I guess)

oke at this point i have to get the defenders, i think it will improve hard kerapec like ALOT instead of camping shield lol

its so fucking funny, everytime you say kerapac, the translation identify it as "Carot Pack", so i got the feeling i'm fighting again some vegetables LOL

Does zammy staff works on boss to lower his magic dmge

Learned the hardway about the invisible lighting

I've tried to follow your guide step by step but I feel like I'm missing something. I'm running bis magic but it still takes me 4 minutes to even get to phase 2. My hits are never as high as others I've seen. When I crit I'm lucky to get a 6-7k crit once in a while with fog and vuln kalg up. Any tips?

With the latest free death week I finally mustered up the courage to try some hm kera solos on my ironman. Just came of the back of a deathless 7 kill hour and wanted to say how huge a help this guide was. Exceptional as always Ryan!

thanks for the guide, definitely helped. Im averaging 13min kills with animate dead and mani aura. Most kills the lot is 500k-1m for me so its prob not the boss for me since Im not a fan of the marathon endurance race, but still fun to know i can hop in a duo/trio anytime

i always freeze when i have to tank alot of damage :/ i'll never be a good pvmer

I’m just starting kerapac but I’m VERY new to mage and these new spells. Obviously you use the shadow one for the damage increase and animate undead for the tankiness, but what spell do you have selected as the “main” spell when fighting?

debuffed 200k dmg for free? You mean dmg for ~50k gp per minute, vuln bombs and souls cost a fortune man

i wonder if ingenuity of the humans' seerkul spec could be worth using.

thanks this guide did help me big time :D got my first hm kc and solo too

I still don't understand how you do so much damage per ability. I'm using the exact same gear -- even better in some slots -- and you complete phases in a fraction of the time it takes me. You've finished the fight in the same time it takes me to barely reach phase two

Great guide tyvm, you're very clear and thorough :)
Also you have a nice voice as a bonus imo

Love your guides man thanks grate video

I've watched this guide a bunch over the past couple months and finally decided to give it a try. Within the first 3 hours, I'm already on to no bob food used during my kills! It's time to move to rippers to see if I can speed these kills up a bit. Thanks for the vid!

Wouldn't it be better to kill the clones on phase 4 earlier with devotion up so you extend it by 10 seconds before killing the 3rd clone?

Also was there any mention in the video about using channelled abilities while stood under Kerapac?

Thanks again Ryan! There are awesome guides, and there's your's. With what I've learned from you in this guide, I'm able to consistently learn a good defensive rotation, complete my Kerapac reapers in Hard Mode, and even start walking some undergeared PvMers in duos!

I am using a lot of food, im getting so much damage and dont get healed properly with soul split.. Help?

phase 1 easy
phase 2 easy
phase 3 easy
phase 4 wut?

wtf....30 minute video for a guide for kerapac, get better

after watching this i got 2 solo kill ezpz now i can not kill him if my life depended on it...... phase 4 im doing less then 500 damage per ability to the clones. i don't understand.. am doing everything the exact same as the 2 kills.

Very comprehensive and well thought out guide. I honestly dreaded Kerapac due to the increased damage taken, but after watching this guide, I am actually interested in trying it out. First step, practice to skip the tear!

can i do kerapac with ranged?

so fucking tilting watching you no food shit in shit gear meanwhile im in t90 gear and full yak and cant fucking kil it. super fucking irritating

can you kill him with ranged and grests?

Any reason why on P4, I do like 5x less damage to the clones?? Impossible for me to kill all 3 clones at that dmg.

Messing with this on normal kerepac, what I had been doing was warping time at 100 or almost 100% adrenaline, using berserk, adren potion for some thresholds or just wait for the warp time to finish to get 100% adrenaline back and unleash the zuk cape and my threshes, or if zerk is on CD (which it is every other time) use warp to do two zuk ults in a row. It's plenty for normal mode, but I'm not sure I'm maximizing that effect for hard, especially since I swear 10 seconds of that berserk just vanish before I can use all my thresholds.

in elite sirenic and ecb with a asc mh and vengegul shield switch i dont stand a chance still to solo i can even finish phase 2 i litterly bougth 10 onyxes to use on death ring for death im throw every single one like srs this game mechs just makes it impossible for people who aint god dam brinless rats that actually spend time outside the game impossible to do shit all
