The fight

Mechanics

The orb colour tells you the prayer: blue magic up to 32, green ranged up to 24, orange melee up to 50.

Its volleys speed up from 3 ticks to 2 to 1 as the fight goes on, and debris falls after each volley for up to 7. You can't pray against rocks, so get out of the shadows. Survive lightning barrage by running a tight circle, and smoke blast by standing behind debris, or it hits for up to 59. At 180 health an abyssal pathfinder spawns. Stay inside its 5x5, because outside it the attacks go through prayer.

Which style: Ranged. A toxic blowpipe for the enrage, and a twisted bow in awakened mode.
