The fight

Mechanics

Vorkath uses a fixed rotation: six attacks, a special, six more, then the other special.

In the acid special keep walking on clean tiles while he breathes every tick. It hits 25-41 whatever dragonfire protection you have. The other special freezes you and sends a zombified spawn at you that explodes for up to 60, so kill it with Crumble Undead. His venom dragonfire still venoms you through protection, the pink one turns your prayers off, and the one he launches up at your position often kills outright.

Which style: Ranged or melee. A dragon hunter crossbow for ranged, a dragon hunter lance for melee.
