The fight

Mechanics

His melee hits 35 to 55 in an area, and Protect from Melee only halves it.

When he can't reach you he uses ranged for up to 31, which prayer blocks. His white orb knocks you back for 5-50 depending on how close you are to an obstacle, and Protect from Magic stops it. At 66% and 33% health he lays bear traps that hit up to 15 and bind you.

Which style: Ranged. Melee isn't advised because he hits so hard.
