Key mechanics
What can kill you at Tombs of Amascut, and what to do about it. For the full breakdown, see the OSRS Wiki link below.
Invocations set the difficulty
You choose invocations to set the Raid Level — higher levels hit harder but raise your unique drop chance. Scale it to your gear rather than forcing Expert too early.
Akkha
Swaps attack styles and elemental shields and fires special orbs — match your overhead prayer to his current style and break the shield with the right element.
Ba-Ba & Kephri
Ba-Ba summons baboons and uses a rolling-boulder knockback, so clear adds and avoid the boulder lane. Kephri shields and spawns scarab swarms that heal her, so break the shield and clear adds fast.
Zebak
Floods the arena and uses blood magic plus a wave attack — hide behind the jugs or relocate to break line of sight from the wave.
The Wardens
The two-warden finale runs phase-based mechanics (obelisk damage, style-switching, an enrage) — it's the raid's DPS-and-mechanics climax.
