HOW TO DUO Budget Nex Guide (OSRS)

  • With all the new changes coming into the game since I made my last guide, I figured it was time for an update. I found this new snazzy item: Mixed Hide. It's incredibly good for budget setups in multiple places, including NEX. Mixed Hide now replaces Karils+Bandos/melee setups previous in the other guides. This allows you to heavily stack supplies and still do outrageous amounts of damage compared to even Bandos. Duo Nex IS still very hard and will take some learning, if it's not working for you, try Trio and work your way down until you get comfortable with the mechanics.
    In this video I go over everything more in-depth and show TWO kills, one that went horribly wrong and Hedron/Phaspher had to TP out, and one where we completely smashed Nex.
    If you want my radius markers, tiles, and what not for Nex, go to Twitch chat and do !nexradius and !nextiles. These are an absolute must when learning and getting the hang of resets.
    DO NOT RANGE CAMP. IT'S BAD. It's 35% worse at MINIMUM than fanging Nex. She is most weak to STAB. USE YOUR STICK. I'll be posting a Max setup guide/run over soon after this one, showing how the meta has changed now that Nex is weak to crossbows. Voidwaker is unfortunately in the bin.
    Heads up again, I am NO LONGER on KICK, and streaming full time on Twitch and UA-cam, so catch me there!

    32:34 another tip is if you know you're going to be stuck in the contain this (you're frozen, or you're under her and don't have time to get out) get pray range up. It will half the damage. Same thing if your teammates are unable to free you from ice prison, pray range works there too.
    Also 33:28 if Nex's next special is ice prison, you want to stay in a 2 tile range from your teammate. Glacies is aggro on Phaspher and Glacies can freeze you in place with ice barrage. If Gnomonkey get's Ice Prison'd Phaspher wouldn't be able to run and free him.

    "Reavers heal Nex based on if they would've hit you" meaning if you weren't praying mage, if they would've hit, they heal based on their damage? That's insane. I do NexFFA for quick teams and I'm the only one ever touching reavers. I normally just get them low like the Nylos P2 because I thought it was all about their healing on death. They really heal when they hit too? I'm shocked this is so poorly known

    Also I commented about eclipse moon possibly being better than mixed hide earlier, to which someone responded that the eclipse moon doesn't actually get a max hit vs the mixed dhide which is true, however when I DPS calc it it looks like the eclipse moon still better dps. Pretty sure it has to do with the minimum hitspat of fang with eclispe moon being 1 higher than that with mixed hide. It's the extra minimum hitsplat that overrides the lack of stab bonus.
    Also mixed hide has terrible defense stats lol. Eclipse moon also has more range attack so it's better for minions and I believe Nex is crush which eclipse moon also has a decent amount of. Even if eclipse moon was worse melee dps I think the added bonuses of Eclipse moon would make up for it.

    • @GnomonkeyRS
      @GnomonkeyRS  28 днів тому

      Because the math literally says its better, because of ruby bolt chances, which aren't affected by armor. Nex has one of the highest defenses, so anything that can ruby bolt her, does MUCH more than Bofa. Bofa also has terrible crush/mage defense. Go ahead and plug a Crossbow vs Bofa into a dps calc, any of them and see for yourself.

      @@GnomonkeyRS The Mp2 bot himself. The fact that your convinced every kill and every player and click is exactly replicated as the number they input into a dps cal is what happens in reality. By now you know humans are not robots and I don't need to explain the vast amount of mistakes a player will make against a projected average amount of damage output that a formula does with accounting for 0 mistakes that every person is making constantly. Hilarious you would reference a dps chart instead of an instance you doing this in reality. That's the issue. This is why a great player can take very low stat gear and do much more damage than someone with the maximum possible achievable gear. The idea that you don't know the difference between what happens in practice with nuances and misclicks vs an excell sheet is the irony of your absurd proclamations. You misunderstand this concept religiously and it's so strange when you unknowingly do this. You just keep plugging numbers into the calculators lol. Show me the videos of you testing this at length you would never actually test this.

    If anyone is looking into learning trios there is some differences in terms of max efficiency (4:00-5:00min kcs) and for helping with securing good times in budget gear:
    - Blood phase stalling reavers, standing under nex for 9 ticks when tanking will guarantee 1 set reavers and sometimes 0 sets, this can save minutes of time and is the biggest difference between bad and good nex teams in trio, just dont stand under too long
    - The only other phase you stall on is when meleeing p2, less damage to team and more time to be meleeing
    some other cool things I dont see mentioned often:
    - On blood phase cruor, if tanking nex stand where gnome stands at 22:00, this makes her pull up to the altar where you can reset her if tbowing, less heals from her autos. You can also drag her to altar at the start of ice phase to be able to get specs back
    - You can do the above on other phases too, stand under her when killing minions to reduce her damage, step out near the end of minion so she isnt in the middle of the map at the start of the next phase
    - its possible to stall nex during reavers and damage reavers, if you can do fast switches you can do this without losing ticks and still fanging nex
    - If you're the umbra tank, wait for her to not agro you before stepping outside of her radius, this often wipes teams as she runs at you and switches target near umbra
    - Nex is invulnerable to damage after a minion dies until the minions projectile reaches nex, use their projectile to guarantee you never lose a tick p1 or any other phase
    - If you have death charge you can tag a reaver running over to cruor and transitioning to ice phase you will get a death charge proc when it dies

    • @GnomonkeyRS
      @GnomonkeyRS  3 місяці тому

      Stalling in trio is worse DPS especially after crossbow weakness (I never calced before change). Max range crossbow vs. max melee is 22% worse dps, so 3 crossbows is significantly better than 2 fangs. Stalling is absolutely never worth the tick loss, purely desperation tactics.
      You can stall a maximum of 5 ticks to not risk a reset. Her reset tick timer is 5-7, but definitely worth doing when you can, blowpipe sometimes doesn't allow this due to range.
      -We didn't drag her to altar on blood/ice phase because we were blowpiping the minions, and without range you shouldn't bother reset spamming. In my next Max eff Nex Guide (which will go up in around a week?), we do indeed use T-Bow and constantly reset her to reduce damage.
      - Phaspher accidently dragged and I showed how to fix it on Shadow Phase, you are right, this absolutely can RIP a run.
      - Tagging reaver for death charge is likely worth if you are using pipe for just 1 shot, but not if using tbow for 5t loss unless you can do it running up to cruor or something.

      @@GnomonkeyRS is that first part for mp2? I forgot it would have changed now yeah and stalling probably isn't worth it, failing mp2 dps before often led to losing time to the non-stop 0's range hitsplats so that will be lessened now. MP2 stalls were a bit variable before however, if its shadow first you dont have to stall much at all, and you can do less or more depending on hp remaining . Stalling reavers is strong though I promise
      Tbow cruor resets is something ive only seen in your duo vids but nexxing with 200+ people i've seen maybe 5 that know it applies to any scale, very cool tech and you can do it to help people who don't know it also, ice phase near altar is strong
      Tagging reaver yes is when out of tbowing range of cruor, it depends where nex is really, if ffa you can steal peoples death charge too when they tag if you're feeling devious and mvp scumming
