Why Clear Air God Dungeon?

According to the simulator (1) and simulator (2):

  • On average it will take 69 clears of the dungeon to get the full Aeris Armour set. (1)
  • If you want the full Armour set, then you need to clear the dungeon 91 times for 75% of that happening or 192 times for 95%. (2)
  • If you want the full set and Stormsnap, then it's 277 times for 75% and 576 times for 95%.

Gear to Idle

Due to the Combat Triangle, it's recommended to beat the Air God Dungeon with

Melee

because the enemies here are

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ranged

and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Melee

. The following build can idle the dungeon with

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Level 90

(+30 HP from Dragonfire Shield for 930 HP total), and is suitable for Standard,

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Hardcore

, and Adventure Game Modes. Check your own setup with the Combat Simulator or Can I Idle to be sure that you won't die.

With more HP, you can start trading DR for Chance to Double Items and plain DPS, for example, with the same build, at

1,090

HP

, you could equip a Chapeau Noir and an Elite Amulet of Glory in their respective slots. Also worth noting that it is possible to manually clear the dungeon at lower

HP

levels and equip the resulting Boots and Gloves to begin idling a bit earlier. The Sandstorm Ring is very powerful and will certainly help clear speeds if you have no external buffs. However, be aware that with enough extra

levels, better equipment, or buffs from

,

,

, or

, the Sandstorm Ring may actually become a detriment to how fast you clear the dungeon.

There are two alternative ring choices:

Weapon Choice

This table plots some Combat Simulator results adjusted by the time it takes to produce all of the required consumables with some assumptions made about the exact bonuses available for each skill.

You can view the spreadsheet here. Make a copy to tailor the resource values to match your own, there is also a column on each table that allows you to input your own Sim results. (link)

Weapon Adjusted Scrolls per Hour Potential Scrolls per Hour Buff compared to previous
Dragon Sword 1.45 1.45+ 0%
Dragon Claw 1.62 5.4+ 370%
Sunset Rapier 1.83 7.3+ 35%
Ancient Claw 1.86 8.0+ 9%
Infernal Claw 1.9 9+ 12+%

The usual food expenditure is

150,000
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
HP

to

200,000
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
HP

per hour. Ideally, you want to get 10 Infernal Cores from the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Infernal Stronghold

and farm the Dragon Claw and Ancient Claw to make the Infernal Claw.
Check the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Infernal Stronghold/Guide

to farm it most efficiently. You should be able to idle everything inside except for Malcs.

Maximized Farming

The rest of this guide is NOT for your first clear, your average clear, or even your first 100 clears. This is purely to maximize scrolls for any missing items. This will assume 99 in all skills, access to nearly all weapons and items in the game, and access to all DR and HP pets. This assumes you are (unless otherwise noted) using an optimal Agility setup, are using your best dps prayers, your best summoning synergy, and are using Diamond Luck Potions

Melee

This build is the simplest to accomplish, and what most players will lean towards.

This clocks in roughly 20-21 scrolls per hour, depending on if you have access to Shield of Melee Power, and depending on your

Astrology

bonuses Tidal Edge, and/or FEZ paired with Fighter Amulet in passive slot, may be slightly faster depending, again, on your

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology

bonuses. This should be checked for yourself in Combat Sim


Magic

Standard Mode only, the Hardcore/Adventure combat triangle advantages make this build unusable.

This build uses

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Water Surge

or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Water Wave

(reduced rune cost),

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Anguish III

, and

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fury II

. To use this method, you need to have 1090 HP and 48 DR. This is achieved by using

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Rocky Waters

instead of

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Lake Swim

. Any other method to get you to survive Aeris's stun is usable, but going to cost you more than 3% damage. This clocks in around 26 scrolls per hour, depending slightly on your

bonuses
