Agility and Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology will greatly increase your clear speeds.
Check your own setup with Can I Idle or Combat Simulator to see if you meet the Error creating thumbnail: File missing
HP requirements. If you're following this setup exactly, you'll need Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Level 86 to idle.
Ring of Wealth or 
Aorpheat's Signet Ring are preferred for the chance of double loot, but you can use 
Silver Diamond Ring for 1% DR if necessary.
If you have 
FEZ then use it, but it's not mandatory to have it.

Ancient Crossbow boosts the clear time by a significant amount because it lowers the enemy's evasion until the end of the fight.
Scaled Shield is important because the poison damages in percentage, meaning that 
Glacia will suffer. A lot. With Scaled Shield, you will clear the dungeon at least 10% faster when compared to its unupgraded version, 
(U) Ancient D-hide Shield.
Use 
Emerald Bolts to save your 
Diamonds for 
Diamond Luck Potion IV.

Ranged
This build farms around 17 to 18 scrolls/hour, depending on yourError creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology bonuses. The 
Cape of Prat is marginally faster at clearing dungeons than the 
Maximum Skillcape, but it will also doubles your ammo consumption.

Magic
This build usesError creating thumbnail: File missing
Fire Surge, Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Anguish III, and Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Surge II.
This build farms around 19 to 20 scrolls/hour, depending on your Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology bonuses. To use this method, you need to have 1090 HP and 57% DR. This is achieved by using Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Rocky Waters instead of Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Lake Swim.
The overall time for this build is likely to take longer than setting up ranged because of how many runes you will need. This build relies on the 
Shield of Magic Power to survive, and also keep a high dps. Overall, it is less effective than the ranged counterpart, and might lower the number of scrolls/hour as a result.

Ancient Relics Guides
On top of no Pets,Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology or Potions this guide will also assume no Relics.
Much like any other dungeon up to now, Manual Eating will be required.
For this dungeon. Watch out for Glacias Frigid Wave attack. It hits 3 times for quite heavy damage.
Melee

Level 80 (or Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Level 70 and 
Finn, the Cat) as well as farm enough 
Food Box I from lower dungeons to obtain enough

Lobster per clear.

Ranged
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ranged is highly recommended as it takes the most advantage of the Combat Triangle.
The minimum recommended set is (U) Red D-hide Equipment. (U) Black D-hide Equipment uses around 70 less Lobster per clear. The clear time for this Dungeon is about 20 minutes and will use roughly 630-700 Lobster.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ancient Crossbow shortens this clear time by roughly 4 minutes.
The 
Ice Armour can be swapped for 
Adamant Armour or 
Rune Armour with little to no impact on the clear speed. It will slightly lower the Food used.
