===Why clear Air God Dungeon?===
* If you wish to tweak the [[Combat Simulator]] Exports yourself, they can be found [[/Sims|here]].
* {{UpgradeIcon|Perpetual Haste}} - massively speeds up {{Skill|Crafting}} and {{Skill|Fletching}}.
 
* {{:Aeris God Armour}} - ranged best-in-slot. This set is mandatory to idle the {{ZoneIcon|Water God Dungeon}}. You will also need {{ItemIcon|Aeris God Gloves|qty=10|gloves}} to later upgrade them into the {{ItemIcon|Poison Virulence Gloves}}.

===Gear to Idle===
=Suggestion for Atlas of Discovery Expansion=
Due to the [[Combat Triangle]], it's recommended to beat the [[Air God Dungeon]] with {{Icon|Melee}} because the enemies here are {{Skill|Ranged}} and {{Icon|Melee|notext=true}} Melee.
 
If {{AoD}}[[Atlas of Discovery Expansion]] is owned, it is highly recommended you get a {{ItemIcon|Ring of Malice (m)}} at this point in the game.<br>
It is the best in slot [[Ring]] (occasionally shared with {{ItemIcon|Ring of Power}}) and will remain relevant till the very end of {{TotH}}[[Throne of the Herald Expansion|Throne of the Herald]]. <br>
The only times it is a bad choice for the [[Ring]] slot is in [[Barrier]] content.
 
This [[Ring]] does not require you to active any Unholy Prayers to be good, the debuff it applies on it's own is very good. It also does not consume any [[Prayer Points]] to use.
 
=Standard Guide=
 
==Low Death Chance or Manual Eating==
 
Grinding our Ancient Armour takes quite a while, so here is an alternative to grinding the set.
This setup is '''NOT''' risk free, there is a 6% death chance (resulting in 0.3 deaths per hour) using this setup.<br>
You can negate this death chance by monitoring the kill and manually eating when your life falls too low..<br>
When manual eating, the timing of when you eat is quite important. You have to pay attention to when the enemy will do it's next attack but also when your next attack is going to be. You want to eat before the enemy strikes right after you hit. This will result in the least amount of time lost, as eating will reset your attack gauge.
 
Alternatively you can get {{ItemIcon|Damage Reduction Potion IV}} to make it 100% safe, this can be obtained through {{SkillReq|Herblore|90}}, {{MasteryReq|Damage Reduction Potion IV|90}} will also be required. <br>
You can also get these potions from [[Cartography]], this will require {{SkillReq|Cartography|90}} and visiting (31.17){{POIIcon|The Sand-Covered Treasure}} on the map.
 
As soon as you obtain 2 [[Aeris God Armour]] pieces (That are not the gloves) equip those instead of the (G) Rune Armour, this will make the death chance negligible (less than 0.1%) and you should be able to idle the rest.
 
This will allow you to skip farming Ancient Armour and Dragon Armour.
 
 
A very good alternative (which is actually a lot better than {{ItemIcon|Infernal Claw}}) is {{ItemIcon|Pure Crystal 2H Axe}}. <br>
This requires {{SkillReq|Smithing|99}}, {{SkillReq|Mining|95}}, {{SkillReq|Crafting|85}}, {{SkillReq|Cartography|80}}, {{SkillReq|Archaeology|90}}.
 
* {{Icon|Chivalry|type=prayer}} and {{Icon|Incredible Reflexes|type=prayer}}

==Gear to Idle==
There are 2 ways suggested for this Dungeon, first one is the Idle method listed here, the second is the [[Air God Dungeon#Alternative Option|Manual Alternative Option]]. The second option will require you to manual eat the dungeon a few times before you can idle it.
 
Due to the [[Combat Triangle]], it's recommended to beat the [[Air God Dungeon]] with {{Icon|Melee}} because the enemies here are {{Skill|Ranged}} and {{Icon|Melee|nolink=true}}.
 
The following build can idle the dungeon with {{SkillReq|Hitpoints|90}} (+30 HP from {{ItemIcon|Dragonfire Shield}} for 930 HP total), and is suitable for Standard, {{Icon|Hardcore}}, and {{Icon|Adventure}} [[Game Mode|Game Modes]]. Check your own setup with the [[Combat Simulator]] or [https://zxv975.github.io/CanIIdle/ Can I Idle] to be sure that you won't die. While {{MonsterIcon|Aeris}}' standard attack is higher than your [[Auto Eat]] threshold, it will never use a standard attack due to it having a 100% chance to use one of four special attacks.

It is heavily suggested to use the {{ItemIcon|Sandstorm Ring}} because it boosts your clear time by 20%. Other rings don't come even relatively close.
With more HP, you can start trading DR for Chance to Double Items and plain DPS, for example, with the same build, at {{Icon|Hitpoints|qty=1090|type=skill|HP}}, you could equip a {{ItemIcon|Chapeau Noir}} and an {{ItemIcon|Elite Amulet of Glory}} in their respective slots.
 
Also worth noting that it is possible to manually clear the dungeon at lower {{Skill|Hitpoints|HP}} levels and equip the resulting {{ItemIcon|Aeris God Boots|Boots}} and {{ItemIcon|Aeris God Gloves|Gloves}} to begin idling a bit earlier.
 
The {{ItemIcon|Sandstorm Ring}} is very powerful and will certainly help clear speeds if you have no external buffs. However, be aware that with enough extra {{Icon|Melee|nolink=true}} levels, better equipment, or buffs from {{Skill|Agility}}, {{Skill|Astrology}}, {{Skill|Herblore}}, {{Skill|Summoning}}, or {{Skill|Prayer}}, the {{ItemIcon|Sandstorm Ring}} may actually become a detriment to how fast you clear the dungeon.  


If you have {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs|FEZ}} (3% DR) use it instead of the {{ItemIcon|Elite Amulet of Defence}} (2% DR). If you don't have any of them, use {{ItemIcon|Gold Sapphire Necklace}}, but you really want at least {{ItemIcon|Elite Amulet of Defence|Elite Defence}} to idle this dungeon.
There are two alternative ring choices:
* {{ItemIcon|Aorpheat's Signet Ring}} or {{ItemIcon|Ring of Wealth}}:
** Increase the amount of {{ItemIcon|Scroll of Aeris|Scrolls}} and {{ItemIcon|Air Chest|Chests}} you receive upon dungeon completion
* {{ItemIcon|Ring of Blade Echoes}}:
** Massively increase weapon DPS at the cost of increased consumable usage


===Weapon choice===
===Weapon Choice===


The simulation was done with the given build. All combat levels are equal to 85 aside from {{Skill|Hitpoints}}. No prayers, no potions, no any other buffs.
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.  


The intermediate steps can be checked with this spreadsheet. ([https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JAuROH4I_dNph9VwBXx7ffoGnWcoHlbsW0doWMBIPU0/edit?usp=sharing link])
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.

The usual food expenditure is {{ItemIcon|Whale (Perfect)|qty=384}} per hour.


You want to get at least the {{ItemIcon|Ancient Claw}} because it is a good time to farm it after unlocking Ancient Magicks.  
If you have the {{AoD}}[[Atlas of Discovery Expansion]], a very good alternative is {{ItemIcon|Pure Crystal 2H Axe}} which requires you to have pretty high non-combat levels.<br>
It is slightly worse than {{ItemIcon|Infernal Claw}} for this dungeon (0.3-0.4 chests per hour worse) and requires {{SkillReq|Smithing|99}}, {{SkillReq|Mining|95}}, {{SkillReq|Crafting|85}}, {{SkillReq|Archaeology|90}} and {{SkillReq|Cartography|80}}. <br>
It however does not require you to grind any {{ItemIcon|Ancient Claw Fragment}} which will save you a lot of time.


Ideally, you want to get {{ItemIcon|Infernal Core|qty=10|Infernal Cores}} from the {{ZoneIcon|Infernal Stronghold}} and farm the {{ItemIcon|Dragon Claw}} to make the {{ItemIcon|Infernal Claw}}.<br>
The usual food expenditure is {{Icon|Hitpoints|qty=150000|type=skill|HP}} to {{Icon|Hitpoints|qty=200000|type=skill|HP}} per hour.
Check the {{Icon|type=dungeon|Infernal Stronghold/Guide}} to farm it most efficiently. You should be able to idle everything aside from {{MonsterIcon|Malcs, the Leader of Dragons|type=monster|Malcs}}.


===Maximized Farming===
Ideally, you want to get {{ItemIcon|Infernal Core|qty=10|Infernal Cores}} from the {{ZoneIcon|Infernal Stronghold}} and farm the {{ItemIcon|Dragon Claw}} and {{ItemIcon|Ancient Claw}} to make the {{ItemIcon|Infernal Claw}}.<br>
Check the {{Icon|type=dungeon|Infernal Stronghold/Guide}} to farm it most efficiently. You should be able to idle everything inside except for {{MonsterIcon|Malcs, the Leader of Dragons|type=monster|Malcs}}.


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 {{ItemIcon|Diamond Luck Potion IV|Diamond Luck Potions}}


===Melee===
==Maximized Farming==


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

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 {{ItemIcon|Diamond Luck Potion IV|Diamond Luck Potions}}


This clocks in roughly 20-21 scrolls per hour, depending on if you have access to {{ItemIcon|Shield of Melee Power}}, and depending on your {{Skill|Astrology}} bonuses
This clocks in roughly 32 scrolls per hour, depending on your {{Skill|Astrology}} bonuses. Since this build uses {{ItemIcon|Big ol Ron}} which grants +100% item doubling, there is no need for any additional doubling, so this build maximizes dps at no cost!


{{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}}, and/or {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs|FEZ}} paired with {{ItemIcon|Fighter Amulet}} in passive slot, may be slightly faster depending, again, on your {{Skill|Astrology}} bonuses. This should be checked for yourself in Combat Sim

* {{ItemIcon|Minotaur}} and {{ItemIcon|Dragon}} or {{ItemIcon|Centaur}}

=Ancient Relics Guide=
 
 
On top of no [[Pets]], {{Skill|Astrology}} or [[Potions]] this guide will also assume no [[Relics]], unless mentioned otherwise.
 
Much like any other dungeon up to now, Manual Eating will be required.
 
The goal is to clear this dungeon once for now, {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}} needs to be cleared to be able to wear [[God Equipment]] if you followed the recommended Dungeon order.
 
For this dungeon. Watch out for {{MonsterIcon|Aeris}} Cyclone attack, it hits 7 times for quite heavy damage, be sure to smash your [[Eat]] button.
 
==Melee==
 
This is a {{Skill|Ranged}} dungeon, [[Melee]] is highly recommended for this dungeon because of the [[Combat Triangle]]. {{Skill|Magic}} will just get slaughtered in this dungeon.
 
The clear speed of {{ItemIcon|(G) Adamant Helmet|notext=true}}[[Adamant_Equipment#Armour|Adamant Armour]] and {{ItemIcon|(G) Rune Helmet|notext=true}}[[Rune_Equipment#Armour|Rune Armour]] is about the same at about 20 minutes. <br>
{{ItemIcon|(G) Adamant Helmet|Adamant Armour}} uses roughly 1000 {{ItemIcon|Lobster}} for a single clear. <br>
{{ItemIcon|(G) Rune Helmet|Rune Armour}} uses roughly 345 {{ItemIcon|Lobster}} for a single clear.
 
It is highly suggested you obtain either a {{ItemIcon|Sunset Rapier}} or {{ItemIcon|Ancient Claw}} for this dungeon.

===Magic===


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


This build uses {{Icon|Water Surge|type=spell}} or {{Icon|Water Wave|type=spell}} (reduced rune cost), {{Icon|Anguish III|type=curse}}, and {{Icon|Fury II|type=aurora}}.
==Idle 2nd Stage Guide==
 
Once {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}} has been cleared it is generally recommended to go back to {{ZoneIcon|Air God Dungeon}} and collect a full set of [[Aeris God Armour]] to enable later idling of {{ZoneIcon|Water God Dungeon}} and {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}} to obtain their respective [[God Equipment]].
 
Seeing as idling is suggested for this section, requirements for {{Skill|Agility}} have to be introduced to meet the {{Skill|Hitpoints|Health}} and [[Damage Reduction]] thresholds. <br>
{{Skill|Cartography}} Point of Interests will also be introduced. <br>
Some adjustments with and without certain [[Pets]] are introduced as well.
 
===Gear===
 
{{SkillReq|Agility|50}} will be assumed for this and future [[Dungeons]]. If this Skill Cap Increase has not been obtained, idling this dungeon will not be possible without a pretty high Death Chance.
 
3 different [[God Equipment|God Armour]] pieces will need to be obtained to safely idle this dungeon. Assuming 3 different pieces were not obtained from the first 3 God Dungeon clears, {{ZoneIcon|Air God Dungeon}} has to be cleared with Manual Eating until 3 different pieces are obtained. One of these pieces has to be a pair of [[Gloves]], the other pieces do not matter what they are.
 
The other 2 Equipment slots may be filled with either [[Adamant Equipment#Armour|Adamant Armour]] or [[Rune Equipment#Armour|Rune Armour]].
* With [[Rune_Equipment#Armour|Rune Armour]] {{SkillReq|Agility|50}} will suffice.
* With [[Adamant Equipment#Armour|Adamant Armour]] the [[Pets]] {{PetIcon|Finn}} and {{PetIcon|Leonardo}} will also be required.
 
Both options have a negligible Death Chance of around 0.0012 per hour. This completely disappears with a 4th piece of [[God Equipment#Armour|God Armour]].
 
{{ItemIcon|Ancient Claw}} can be used instead of the {{ItemIcon|Sunset Rapier}} for a minor (0.3) clear per hour increase.
 
This setup has an estimate clear rate of 4 [[Dungeons]] per hour. <br>
It will also use roughly {{ItemIcon|Lobster|qty=1450}} per hour.
 
Using {{Synergy|Minotaur|Dragon}} has an increase of 0.8 clears per hour.


To use this method, you need to have 1090 HP and 48 DR. This is achieved by using {{Skill|Agility|Rocky Waters}} instead of {{Skill|Agility|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 {{Skill|Astrology}} bonuses
