Strategy

1. 1

   Summoned souls

   At 400 HP Cerberus summons three ghosts that each attack with a different style — flick the matching overhead as they hit.

2. 2

   Lava pools

   She spawns fire under you during the fight; step off the lava to avoid stacking heavy damage.

3. 3

   Prayer discipline

   Most incoming damage is avoidable with prayer flicking, letting you bring more brews than restores for long trips.
