There are a lot of reasons to clear this dungeon:

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Master of Nature - unlocks upgrade that greatly speeds up

Mining and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Woodcutting.
Terran God Armour - gives one of the strongest defensive melee builds, and is required to idle Underwater City.
Earth Layered Shield - one of the highest Damage Reduction Shields in the Base Game.
Guardian Amulet - provides Damage Reduction at the cost of increase attack interval.
Guardian Ring - one of the few Rings that provide Damage Reduction.
Terran Godsword - can be upgraded into the Ultima Godsword.

Standard Guide

First Clears

Due to the Combat Triangle, it is recommended to clear the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Earth God Dungeon

with

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Magic

because the enemies here are mostly

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Melee

, including the final boss Terran. Being stunned when an enemy hits you causes you to take 30% additional damage. The idea here is to get out of the stun effect of Terran faster than he can attack if you're under the effect of his slow (+33% attack interval inflicted by Grasping Roots). Weapons with a 2.9 second attack interval will get away in time, however weapons with a 3.0 second interval will not without the use of interval reduction bonuses; specifically, 3.0 second interval weapon need to be reduced to 2.9 seconds or faster. Therefore, it is only safe to use Cloudburst Staff while using

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Surge I

or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Surge II

before clearing

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Into the Mist

. The safest spell to use while maintaining a decent adjusted clear time is likely the 20k-accuracy

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Gust

, with a wand and a shield equipped. Worth noting that using Cloudburst Staff, even with

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Surge I

or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Surge II

, will likely far outpace any other spell/weapon combo. However, be aware that this will cost a lot of runes, and running out of them will put you in danger of dying. Check combat sim to see how many runes you will spend per hour, and make plenty of extras to survive for as long as necessary. The following methods will reduce your interval sufficiently enough to avoid the need to spend Air Runes on Surge Auroras, making this particular method effectively foolproof. You can use the

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Fury II

Aurora instead for better adjusted clear times if you meet one or more of these requirements.

It may be helpful to check if you can idle the dungeon with the Combat Simulator. Can I Idle may be misleading in the amount of DR you need. 'If' your attack interval is 2.9 or lower with a staff, or if you are using a wand, you can uncheck the Status Damage checkbox as you will not be taking stun damage from any of these enemies.

Use Silver Diamond Ring, Infernal Cape, and Dragonfire Shield if you don't have enough DR.

Ring of Wealth or Aorpheat's Signet Ring can be used if you don't have the Warlock Ring, but the adjusted drop time is worse with them.

FEZ is good but not mandatory.

If you have unused Water Chests, you might want to open them for the Magic Wand (Elite).

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

This build uses

Water Surge

or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Water Wave

(slightly 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 an attack interval of 2.9 or lower. This is achieved the easiest in the end game with

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Otto

, or alternatively with

Surge I

or

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Ancient Relics Guides

On top of no Pets,

Much like any other dungeon up to now, Manual Eating will be required.

After clearing

It is suggested you follow these steps on the

Melee

A Melee setup for

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Earth God Dungeon

will take around 30 minutes to clear and take roughly 1,150 Lobster.

Rune Equipment lowers the Lobster amount by roughly 150 per clear. It has little to no impact on clear speed.

Sunset Rapier and Ancient Claw have roughly the same clear speed.
A Dragon Claw would only be 5 minutes slower.

Even though this is technically possible, it will require a whole lot of farming.

To be able to do it with

you will need

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Level 70

as well as farm enough Food Box I from lower dungeons to obtain enough Swordfish for

It will also require Rune Equipment.

This dungeon will take roughly 35 minutes to clear with

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

and use approximately 1030 Lobster per clear. In short, it is highly discouraged to use

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

with

Magic

because the enemies here are mostly

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

, including the final boss Terran.

This will require the

Level 55

Skill cap to be unlocked. You can use higher or lower tiers of Wizard Armour.

It won't really have a large impact on the kill speed (roughly 20-24 minutes), it will however impact how much you need to eat.
The increase from Earth Acolyte Wizard Gear to Earth Adept Wizard Gear is is roughly 750 Lobster to 1,200 Lobster for example.

Earth Adept Wizard Gear is just the example given. Feel free to change this to Air Adept Wizard Gear, Water Adept Wizard Gear or Fire Adept Wizard Gear or even Expert Wizard Equipment if you have the
