This page was last updated for (v1.0.4).

This writeup is intended to be mobile-friendly as the UI can make switching difficult. Thus, there will be a focus on limiting the amount of switching necessary, from gear to prayers. Using a web browser or PC will help, as you will be able to swap gear much faster, but is not required. Using a PC will allow you to switch prayers, gear, or spells to optimize DPS, but these will not be discussed in depth.

Event Mechanics

Event mechanics are explained on the Impending Darkness Event page. In summary, you will need to clear 4

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Slayer

areas a total of 5 times to complete the entire event. At the end of every area cleared, a harder Boss monster will spawn - it is simply a regular monster with extra combat modifiers. At the end of every round of 4 slayer areas cleared, Bane will spawn. You will have time to swap gear before starting the fight with Bane.

Setup

Equipment Sets

You will need to equip each outlined set as you will be switching between equipment sets frequently.

Gear is DR-focused for both mobile- and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Hardcore

-friendly completion. The rewards given while clearing the event are not required but may help with DPS if you so choose to use them. The Maximum Skillcape is non-negotiable, as fights take place in Slayer areas.

Slayer Negation Sets

This is the most important set and is targeted for

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Unhallowed Wasteland

. You can use this set for the remaining Slayer areas, but it will be helpful to swap to God Armour Sets for better bonuses once completed.

Melee

If you choose the immune to stun modifier, substitute Fighter Amulet for Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs.

God Armour Sets

The God Armour sets can be used for all Slayer areas beside

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Unhallowed Wasteland

. Being mobile-focused, an emphasis on DR options is preferred. Thus Terran Armour and ELS are recommended for all 3 combat styles, but can be swapped for Ragnar Armour and DPS shields ( Dragonfire Shield and Scaled Shield) respectively if you feel comfortable, ELS should remain on your Magic set as it has no real alternative shield until you have killed the third Bane.

Melee

If you choose the immune to stun modifier, substitute Fighter Amulet for Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs. If fighting Bane, also use Ring of Blade Echoes in place of the Hunter's Ring.

bonuses. However, the difference is relatively small, so don't focus on getting optimal bonuses.

Modifier Tier List

Listed from best (choose it) to worse (avoid it). All modifiers apply to the enemies, not the player. You can start and stop the event when beginning to fish for a decent first modifier. If you receive choices of modifiers or a series of modifiers after a few rounds that are completely awful, you can always restart the event for better RNG.

  1. +100% chance to ignore Stuns and Freezes and Immune to Sleep
  2. +20% Maximum Hit and -10% Maximum Hitpoints
  3. +20% Maximum Hit and +20% Accuracy Rating
  4. +2000 Maximum Hitpoints and -10% Maximum Hit
  5. +50% chance to apply poison when hitting with an attack and +10% Maximum Hitpoints
  6. +15% Damage Reduction and +15% Global Evasion
  7. +50% Chance to apply burn when attacking and +50% chance to apply frostburn when attacking
  8. +100% chance to ignore Slow effects and -5% Attack Interval
  9. +10% Maximum Hit, -10% Attack Interval, and -10% Global Evasion
  10. +15% chance to apply affliction when attacking and +15% Lifesteal
  11. Slayer Area Effects are 5% Stronger
  12. Heal 4% of current hitpoints every 2 turns and +40% of Maximum Hit added to Minimum Hit

Area Order

The recommended order of areas to clear is as follows:

  1. Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Unhallowed Wasteland
  2. Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Dark Waters
  3. Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Shrouded Badlands
  4. Error creating thumbnail: File missing
    Perilous Peaks

You can clear in any order you wish, but the recommended order minimizes gear swaps and optimizes Bane fight locations. It is strongly recommended to never clear

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Unhallowed Wasteland

and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Dark Waters

last.

Fight Details

Prayers

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Prayer

choice is different for each Slayer area. Prayers are listed in priority order and are recommended this way to reduce the need to change them on mobile as it can be difficult given the UI.

Prayers for Bane fights will be Protect from combat style and Battleheart.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Battleheart.

Eating Patterns

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Impending Darkness Event

takes more attention than

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Into the Mist

. High healing food such as Whale (Perfect) is highly recommended. Pay attention to all attacks throughout the event, and eat to full whenever in doubt. Listed below are the high priority monsters and attacks to watch out for.

Monster Attack Notes
Rokken/Rokken Boss Shockwave Modifiers can make Rokken hurt, and a boss Rokken will be very fast. Eat to full.
Ku-tul Curse of the Deep If you don't switch to god armor, modifiers + affliction can make this hit hard, since Ranged has no DR amulet. Eat to full.
Greater Skeletal Dragon Bone Crush Being stunned by a Bone Crush, the -10% DR debuff from Spiked Tail Whip, affliction stacks, plus any additional modifiers makes this pretty dangerous. If you have full debuffs (stun, -10% DR), Eat to full.
Spiked Red Claw Savage Spike If you're bleeding, Eat to full.
Bane, Bane, Instrument of Fear Suffocate Eat at around 60% HP or earlier. You want to avoid the sleep completely.
Bane, Bane, Instrument of Fear Fragile Mind If you are debuffed by Fragile Mind, Eat to full.
Bane, Instrument of Fear Overwhelming Power Spam eat.

Area Fights

These notes are strictly for the monsters in each area.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fire Surge

is the recommended spell.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Anguish III

and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Surge II

are not required but do provide better DPS; however, they will have to be selected every time you swap to your

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Magic

set.

Slayer Area Notes
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Shrouded Badlands		 You can use
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Magic and Ocean Song the entire area.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Perilous Peaks		 Swap each set for Combat Triangle advantage.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Dark Waters		 Swap each set for Combat Triangle advantage.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Unhallowed Wasteland		 Swap each set for Combat Triangle advantage. Incinerate and its burn can be used to help quickly DPS each melee UW monster if you wish, but Ocean Song and normal magic works fine.

Bane Fights

Bane's attack style randomly rolls when he spawns. Similar to

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Into the Mist

, you must fight him with the same combat style he is using, as he is immune to all attacks from other combat styles. If you don't want to fight with a particular style, you can run - do not stop the event as this will reset all progress - and re-clear the last slayer area to roll a new Bane spawn. Bane has the same abilities no matter his combat style.

It is suggested that the appropriate God Armour Set build is used during Bane fights.

Melee Bane

Probably the hardest style as the modifiers stack up. Just let the Tidal Edge do the work as you pay attention to its attacks.

In some of the modifier variations, the final Bane will require a lot of manual eating.

You are better off re-rolling its attack style by re-clearing the area rather than losing two hours of work.

Ranged Bane

Decent fight due to the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Dragon

+

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Centaur

synergy adding a lot of extra damage. Nothing special, as

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Shockwave

is a strong weapon.

Magic Bane

Probably the easiest style as you can use

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Incinerate

for the duration of the fight for guaranteed burn and damage. You may wish to switch to any normal spell and start relying on Ocean Song once Bane reaches less than half HP, as the burn damage will drop off around half HP, however this is not really necessary. Alternatively, normal

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Magic

and Ocean Song can be used for the entire fight too. Using

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Incinerate

for the entire fight allows you to use Damage Reduction Potions instead of Diamond Luck as your hits are already guaranteed at 20k+ Accuracy Rating.
