Why Clear Water God Dungeon?
There are a lot of reasons to clear this dungeon:
Master of Nature - unlocks upgrade that greatly speeds up 
Mining and 
Woodcutting.- Terran God Armour - gives one of the strongest defensive melee builds, and is required to idle
Underwater City. 
Earth Layered Shield - one of the highest Damage Reduction Shields in the Base Game.
Guardian Amulet - provides Damage Reduction at the cost of increase attack interval.
Guardian Ring - one of the few Rings that provide Damage Reduction.
Terran Godsword - can be upgraded into the 
Ultima Godsword.
Standard Guide
Gear
Due to the Combat Triangle, it is recommended to clear the 
Earth God Dungeon with 
Magic because the enemies here are mostly 
Melee, including the final boss 
Terran.
Being stunned when an enemy hits you causes you to take 30% additional damage. The idea here is to get out of the stun effect of Terran faster than he can attack if you're under the effect of his slow (+33% attack interval inflicted by Grasping Roots). Weapons with a 2.9 second attack interval will get away in time, however weapons with a 3.0 second interval will not without the use of interval reduction bonuses; specifically, 3.0 second interval weapon need to be reduced to 2.9 seconds or faster. Therefore, it is only safe to use 
Cloudburst Staff while using 
Surge I or 
Surge II before clearing 
Into the Mist.
The safest spell to use while maintaining a decent adjusted clear time is likely the 20k-accuracy 
Gust, with a wand and a shield equipped.
Worth noting that using Cloudburst Staff, even with Surge I or Surge II, will likely far outpace any other spell/weapon combo. However, be aware that this will cost a lot of runes, and running out of them will put you in danger of dying. Check combat sim to see how many runes you will spend per hour, and make plenty of extras to survive for as long as necessary.
The following methods will reduce your interval sufficiently enough to avoid the need to spend 
Air Runes on Surge Auroras, making this particular method effectively foolproof. You can use the 
Fury II Aurora instead for better adjusted clear times if you meet one or more of these requirements.

Any setup you use needs to be checked with the Combat Simulator to be sure of its efficacy for you.
| Slot | Item | DR% |
|---|---|---|
 |  Glacia God Helmet | 8% |
 |  Glacia God Platebody | 8% |
 |  Glacia God Platelegs | 8% |
 |  Glacia God Boots | 8% |
 |  Glacia God Gloves | 8% |
 |  Skull Cape | 3% |
 |  Elite Amulet of Magic | 2% |
 |  Warlock Ring | 0% |
 |  Magic Wand (Powerful) | 0% |
 |  Scaled Shield | 8% |
| Total | 53% | |
It may be helpful to check if you can idle the dungeon with the Combat Simulator. Can I Idle may be misleading in the amount of DR you need. 'If' your attack interval is 2.9 or lower with a staff, or if you are using a wand, you can uncheck the Status Damage checkbox as you will not be taking stun damage from any of these enemies.
Use 
Silver Diamond Ring, 
Infernal Cape, and 
Dragonfire Shield if you don't have enough DR.
Ring of Wealth or 
Aorpheat's Signet Ring can be used if you don't have the 
Warlock Ring, but the adjusted drop time is worse with them.
FEZ is good but not mandatory.
If you have unused 
Water Chests, you might want to open them for the 
Magic Wand (Elite).
Maximized Farming
The rest of this guide is NOT for your first clear, your average clear, or even your first 100 clears. This is purely to maximize scrolls for any missing items. This will assume 99 in all skills, access to nearly all weapons and items in the game, and access to all DR and HP pets. This assumes you are (unless otherwise noted) using an optimal Agility setup, are using your best dps prayers, your best summoning synergy, and are using 
Diamond Luck Potions
Magic
This build uses 
Water Surge or 
Water Wave (slightly reduced rune cost), 
Anguish III, and Fury II.
To use this method, you need to have an attack interval of 2.9 or lower. This is achieved the easiest in the end game with Otto, or alternatively with Surge I or Surge II.
This achieves around 26 to 27 scrolls per hour, depending slightly on your 
Astrology bonuses.
Consumables:
Diamond Luck Potions
Battleheart and 
Augury

Witch
Wizard's Scroll- Water Surge, Anguish III, and Fury II
| Slot | Item | DR% |
|---|---|---|
| |  Slayer Wizard Hat (Master) | 6% |
| | Glacia God Platebody | 8% |
| | Glacia God Platelegs | 8% |
| | Glacia God Boots | 8% |
| | Glacia God Gloves | 8% |
| | Skull Cape | 3% |
| |  Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs | 3% |
| |  Ring of Wealth | 0% |
| |  Cloudburst Staff | 0% |
 |  Chapeau Noir | 0% |
| Total | 44% | |
Ancient Relics Guides
On top of no Pets, Astrology or Potions this guide will also assume no Relics.
Much like any other dungeon up to now, Manual Eating will be required.
After clearing Earth God Dungeon your combat caps should be 85 if you're following the suggested dungeon progression order.
It is suggested you follow these steps on the 
Fire God Dungeon guide after clearing Earth God Dungeon.
Melee
Gear
A Melee setup for Earth God Dungeon will take around 30 minutes to clear and take roughly 1,150 
Lobster.
Rune Equipment lowers the Lobster amount by roughly 150 per clear. It has little to no impact on clear speed.
Sunset Rapier and 
Ancient Claw have roughly the same clear speed.
A 
Dragon Claw would only be 5 minutes slower.

Ranged
Even though this is technically possible, it will require a whole lot of farming.
To be able to do it with 
Ranged you will need 
Level 70 as well as farm enough 
Food Box I from lower dungeons to obtain enough 
Swordfish for Raft Building.
It will also require Rune Equipment.
This dungeon will take roughly 35 minutes to clear with Ranged and use approximately 1030 Lobster per clear.
In short, it is highly discouraged to use Ranged to attempt Earth God Dungeon.
Gear
Ancient Crossbow lowers the estimated clear time to roughly 22 minutes.

Magic
Due to the Combat Triangle, it is recommended to clear the Earth God Dungeon with Magic because the enemies here are mostly Melee, including the final boss Terran.
Gear
This will require the 
Level 55 Skill cap to be unlocked. You can use higher or lower tiers of Wizard Armour.
It won't really have a large impact on the kill speed (roughly 20-24 minutes), it will however impact how much you need to eat.
The increase from 
Earth Acolyte Wizard Gear to 
Earth Adept Wizard Gear is is roughly 750 Lobster to 1,200 Lobster for example.
Earth Adept Wizard Gear is just the example given. Feel free to change this to 
Air Adept Wizard Gear, 
Water Adept Wizard Gear or 
Fire Adept Wizard Gear or even Expert Wizard Equipment if you have the Runecrafting Level unlocks.
Be sure to adjust your Spell to match the Element of the Wizard Equipment you're using.
Spell: 
Earth Wave
Curse: Anguish III
Aurora: Fury II (Optional)
