Don't play Nomad, his light-light class is better, because the extra buffs are more useful than the offensive spells from Nomad. He can also stack stat buffing auras. Light-Light-Wardenkeep Hawk is actually his strongest class, offensively. It was not like this in the original. Hawk's Dark classes had higher attack in the original. Definitely a stronger attacker than any of Riesz's classes. Last edited by crimsonedge11 ; 9 May, pm. You should just play him. Even if he's the most awful thing in the world, which he's not, that just means you'll learn more than most people by playing him.
Originally posted by crimsonedge11 :. Thank you for all the responses. The main thing I was concerned about was Nomad being decent, not necessarily best. If Nomad was going to be pathetic damage and near-useless, which is what I have read, I was going to try something else, but it sounds like I can use skills crit stuff, which I didnt know affected spells, Special Effect, etc to be decently strong. Also hilarious that the guy above was talking about Nomad while saying I should not play Nomad.
Beasts of burden can hold additional healing supplies, increasing the amount of damage you can withstand. The second is a combat familiar. Players with access to them could use an iron titan or steel titan against Nomad, both of which are effective. Players with lower Summoning can summon a talon beast which is fairly effective. Finally, a healing familiar may be used. One common strategy with regards to familiars is to bring a beast of burden filled with food.
Once the beast of burden is empty, dismiss it and summon a combat or healing familiar. Although protection prayers cannot be used to block Nomad's attacks, other prayers can still be very useful. For those using standard prayers, Piety , Rigour , and Augury are very good prayers to use for their respective combat styles. All three can boost one's stats reasonably high, and will be very helpful against Nomad. Leech Defence drains Nomad's Defence by 8 levels when fully activated, which makes it significantly easier to hit him, as well as boosting your Defence by 5.
Sap Mage may be used as a substitute, which drains his Magic and Defence but does not boost your stats at all. Leech Ranged is not useful against Nomad. However, meleers will find use in Leech Attack and Leech Strength.
Magic users can use Leech Magic alongside Leech Defence to lower Nomad's Magic and Defence, which will reduce his offence and significantly reduce his defence against Magic attacks. With 92 Prayer, Soul Split is exceptionally helpful against Nomad, provided you can hit him consistently enough. At 95 Prayer, Turmoil , Anguish , and Torment will greatly increase the player's strength, as well as greatly decreasing Nomad's stats.
If you are using Saradomin brews and super restores to heal, note that the latter potion restores prayer points, so there is no need to bring prayer potions. Otherwise, you will need a few, and possibly a prayer renewal. When the fight with Nomad begins, turn on whichever prayers you're using and run to the side of the room, to stand next to a pillar.
Ideally, you want to stand next to a pillar's rear corner, as in the first image below. Begin to range Nomad, eating as needed. Keep your health reasonably high; life points or higher is safe enough. If you find yourself in need of a few seconds to heal, withdraw from your beast of burden, or just focus yourself, you can step behind the pillar as shown in the second image below.
Remember that if you hide for too long, Nomad will teleport and heal, resetting the fight. When Nomad deploys his flame vortexes take care not to step over them.
When he teleports to use Soul Blast, move behind the pillar in order to avoid it. Move back out afterwards in order to continue attacking him. When Nomad uses Mirror Image and copies himself, hide behind the pillar and wait for them to disappear. This gives you about a minute with which to manage your health, items and familiar.
Right after you hide behind the pillar, equip a shield and activate defensive abilities to stall adrenaline. Once the clones vanish, step back out. Eventually, Nomad will teleport and freeze you, then begin to charge up his Disintegrate attack.
Heal until you can survive the attack. If you are using Saradomin brews, don't drink any super restore doses until after the attack hits, or you will have to drink a super restore twice. Keep on ranging him until Disintegrate hits you. Once Disintegrate hits, immediately heal, drink super restores if necessary, and run back to the pillar. Resume ranging him, and remember that at this point, his cycle of special attacks resets.
If you brought a combat familiar pouch, summon it once your beast of burden is empty. However, bear in mind that if you are too far away from Nomad, the familiar will not attack him. This can present problems when avoiding his flame vortexes. When necessary, focus on survival rather than offence. Follow this strategy until Nomad goes berserk.
Remember that he will heal himself back to half health when he's reduced to a quarter of his maximum health; once you reduce him to a quarter of his health again, he goes berserk. When he goes berserk, switch to diamond bolts e , turn on Protect from Melee or Deflect Melee, and, if necessary, move forward until he can attack you.
Range him with the diamond bolts and duck behind the pillar if you need a moment to heal, but as always, heed his command of "Face me! Fighting Nomad using melee is somewhat simpler than using Ranged, in terms of strategy. When the fight begins, activate your prayers and begin attacking him. Keep yourself healed with your food or Saradomin brews; health is a safe limit.
Make sure you keep Auto Retaliate off. When Nomad deploys his flame vortexes, stay still. Continue fighting him standing in the middle of the flame vortexes, where you are safe from them. Take extreme care not to misclick and move on top of a flame vortex.
After a short time Nomad will either teleport or stop attacking; either way, he is about to use Soul Blast. Move directly south until you are away from the vortexes, then hide behind a pillar. Heal yourself up to over life points beforehand, just in case you don't make it to the pillar in time.
Once he uses Soul Blast and the vortexes begin to explode, run out and continue attacking him as normal, but stay away from the exploding vortexes. When Nomad uses Mirror Image and summons his clones, you can either attack him to get rid of them remember, he will attack a split second after the clones , or hide behind a pillar and use the time to heal, drop vials, manage your familiar, or just take a breather.
After about a minute, the clones will disappear, and you must resume fighting him as normal. If you don't bring a Ranged weapon, you won't be able to hurt Nomad when he freezes you and uses Disintegrate. You may wish to bring a crossbow and ammunition for this reason; remember that the special effect can activate regardless of your Ranged accuracy. Make sure you are at or above your maximum life points, and if you're using Saradomin brews, wait to drink super restores until after you've healed from Disintegrate.
Once he hits you, heal up and continue to attack him. His cycle of special attacks will reset at this point. Using a spirit kyatt is somewhat easier when meleeing, as you do not have to worry about Nomad being out of range of the kyatt's special attack.
Remember that you can hide behind a pillar for a few seconds if you need to, but as always, heed his command of "Face me! Nomad's combat level increases to during Nomad's Elegy , in addition to possessing , life points for each of his four phases. In addition, Gielinor will also assist Nomad whenever he orders it. During phase 1, Nomad can occasionally order Gielinor to attack the player. When Nomad yells "Witness the power of Gielinor!
Gielinor will then slam its arm several seconds after you get teleported, dealing heavy melee damage. Nomad does not need to order Gielinor to attack with magic. Both attacks are avoidable by simply moving out of the way. Protection prayers and Debilitate can also reduce the damage dealt it must hit Nomad, since Gielinor is treated as scenery.
During phase 2, the same mechanics from phase 1 apply. This time, Nomad will have access to his Soul Blast attack. Nomad will teleport to either end of the bridge, yelling "Can you face my wrath? It will deal 7, damage 9, if you let Nomad take a piece of the Stone of Jas during Dishonour among Thieves.
If you hide from the projectile, you will know if you have avoided it when Nomad says "Stop hiding, worm. During phase 3, Nomad will create a clone of himself at 50, life points and use the same mechanics from the previous two phases, taunting your ability to find him. If you kill the clone, you will be left with Nomad himself and just drop his health back to 0 to proceed to the next phase.
If you manage to find and defeat Nomad himself, you will skip straight to phase 4 instead after Icthlarin's role has been completed. A good way to determine which Nomad is the real one is to look for the target yellow circle under one of the clones. Do note that the yellow circle might not appear for players sometimes.
On phase 4, Nomad stops using all of his special attacks and instead attacks with rapid melee. Stay in the middle of the platform, since Gielinor will still perform its magic attack on you. In Hard Mode, Nomad's combat level increases to , his health is doubled , life points per phase, and his attacks deal more damage. Occasionally, Gielinor will send 5 red bombs at the player typically after it attacks , dealing 2, magic damage each which cannot be reduced or blocked, and has an AoE of 3x3.
The player does not control Death, Xenia , or Icthlarin. Additionally, they are restored to full health at the beginning of each phase. On phase 4, however, several new mechanics will start appearing on this phase. First, a soul wall will appear blocking both sides of the bridge, meaning it is a fight to the death at this point. Block any incoming damage quickly e. If Soul Split is active, Nomad says "Your pitiful attempt to manipulate souls is a mockery of my work.
Once Nomad is defeated in his temple and Nomad's Requiem is completed, you can fight him again in the Dominion Tower. He may appear in both Climber and Endurance modes, but in a weaker form. Additionally, one of the special fights, entitled "No More Nomad No More! However, Nomad can appear as low as the sixth floor in Endurance and Climber. Defeating Nomad is one of the requirements for unlocking the Goliath gloves. Defeating him in Endurance will work, as well as completing the special double Nomad fight.
However, defeating one Nomad during the special fight and losing to the second will not count. Once Nomad is defeated in Endurance, or the special fight is completed, Nomad is unlocked in Freestyle mode and can be fought at will.
However, he has double his total life points and has an increased max hit of Another difference is the arena, which features four larger pillars instead of multiple smaller ones.
These pillars can be used to hide from him much the same as the pillars in his throne room. Attempting to use the ability Surge or Escape to escape his vortexes will result in the message "You are in an area which is preventing you from performing that ability. While fighting Nomad in the Dominion Tower, you are able to use power-up items, such as Dominion swords , Dominion crossbows , and Help horn powerups. Fighting Nomad in the Dominion Tower, he can not be hit by diminuitive , massive or colossal bomb powerups, so it is not recommended to bring them with you.
If you choose to use Dominion weapons during the "No More Nomad If the 'No Powerups' handicap is activated in Climber mode, Dominion weapons are not allowed. Unlike in the quest, it is not easy to run through the mines to a safe area.
Standing still and hitting Nomad does work, as long as you don't move until after the mines explode. View source. History Talk 2. Do you like this video? Play Sound.
